Dry Bowser: Difference between revisions

'''Dry Bowser''' (also known as '''Bowser Bones''', '''Dry Bones Bowser''' and '''Skeletal Bowser''') is an undead, skeletal version of [[Bowser]] and also his father, debuting in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' Dry Bowser was accidentally created in <i>New Super Mario Bros.</i>'s first castle, when a short fight between Bowser and [[Mario]] ended with Bowser being dropped into a pit filled with [[lava]]. Unlike previous occasions, the lava reduced the once-mighty king to a skeleton, leaving his son, [[Bowser Jr.]], temporarily in command of the [[Koopa Troop]]. Dry Bowser is then fought in the first castle in [[World 8 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 8]]. Dry Bowser is the king of the [[Dry Bones]] as Bowser is the king of the [[Koopa (species)|Koopa]]s.

Dry Bowser makes an appearance as a unlockable driver in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', classified as a Large-sized character. He also appears as a separate character from Bowser in the latest ''[[Mario (series)|Mario]]'' games. Dry Bowser has an extremely horrifying howl combined with the rattling of bones from his entire body. This can specially be heard in the [[Wii]] version of ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games]]'' when the player faces him in Ice Hockey. In certain regions of ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'' it was revealed that Dry Bowser is actually Bowser's father. Dry Bowser is the king of the [[Dry Bones]] as Bowser is the king of the [[Koopa (species)|Koopa]]s.
