Bowser's appearance here is SO badass. I always love when villains fight each other like that. This game's story may be by-the-book but it's very underrated -- and it felt much much more in-line with the Mario series than Super Paper Mario's story too. This was such a surprising and crazy moment, and it really made Bowser come across as a real threat, which I appreciated.
@666.exe-Ganon Honestly agree. Pisses me off because Grodus could've been way harder but then they just had to throw in bowser right after. For the sake of having a bowser fight. Should've made him appear after gloomtail to be honest. They should've made bowser have a meaningful role or just not include him at all. Doesn't help that Grodus is a pretty bad villian already and they go ahead and make him forgettable even more with bowser interrupting everything.
I like how in this game kammy koopa got the battle she deserved in the first one. I almost forgot she ever actually had a solid battle, aside from the silly one with twink.
"Today's the day I flush the plumber down the drain!" Bowser, you are MY MAN. Also, why do both BiS and TTYD both have final battles taking place in rooms behind their thrones
When fighting Grodus, attack his staff, seems like I'm the only one who knows this, but the staff has an HP of 8, but upon destroying it, it really hinders his attacks and defenses, I suggest Power Lift, then Power Jump onto the Staff, then use Vivian's Fiery Jinx to take out the Grodus Xs, rinse and repeat, you'll be done in a jiffy it'll be laughably easy and you'll have enough energy left to pummel Bowser and Kammy, as for them, use Tornado Jump on Bowser, (after a Power Lift of course, and I hope you've got that spike badge on, you'll need it), if you have anything Icy use it, it may freeze them buying you time to heal, oh and Fiery Jinx or knock down Kami and use Gulp, but don't bother with stop watches or anything of the sort, those rarely work on enemies that strong.
Wow he went into battle I forgot to go to the Cook to get those dinners made 50 HP and 50 FP you need that and sometimes those Stars don't work when he put that protection thing that's why I didn't use them sometimes to beat him 🤔💯
7:04 I love how grodus doesn’t realize that one of his lens are cracked when he’s at low HP and when he’s dead his glass head whatever that glass is on grodus’s head is and his came wand whatever that is just cracks and he doesn’t even realize.
I remember playing this for the first time when I was like 11, I was soooo happy to have beaten Grodus, Then Bowser made his EPIC appearance and I was like ohh helll no PLEASE tell me I'm getting a break before I fight him. then he says his lines then comes at you, then the epic music Q's. one of the best fights ever imo XD
He is the only boss from paper mario that gave me so much trouble lol. I even defeated bowser after fighting grodus in a single try but huff n puff is true shit lol.
I like how Bowser has the same attacks here as in paper mario, minus the star rod powers. I also like that Kammy joins him and is actually more annoying
You know the funniest thing is like Bowser doesn't even pay attention toGrodus and he's literally right next to bowser like shit how does he not just finish him there he seemed qorse shape than Mario at this moment
Well for your first question, on the Groudus and bowser fight back to back, make sure you can level up after Groudus, so youll have all your HP and FP refilled! It helps so much, and you also dont need to spare your FP on Groudus. For Groudu's minis, use a party member that has a move that can hit all enemys (Like Vivians Firery Jinx or bobberys bomb-omb blast.) . Stylish moves are when you press the A button at a certin point, and what the stylish moves do is heal your star power........
After that abomination we all know as sticker star I didn't even bother getting color splash since it looked almost the same, but maybe slightly better. I had to comeback to thousand year door for the 30th playthrough since it's one of the best games ever made
Color splash is a great game honestly, bowser talks in it unlike sticker star, and he has his TTYD battle pose, kinda. I'd probably list it as my third favorite, [spm being last]
MrDarksword123 - Agreed. I wish I could get Thousand Year door, but I don’t think I have the capabilities or resources, sadly.... Color Splash isn’t much better than Sticker Star. To be fair, they did fix some things (Bowser talks, and the areas are less generic), but the rest of the game retains the nightmarish flaws of Sticker Star. Sorry for the long comment, but it’s disheartening to see people praise Color Splash when they have no clue how awesome the previous installments were....
When I first played this and I had to fight Bowser right after, I was sad. Throughout the game, I started to like Bowser, but him taking advantage of the situation (as fitting as it is) made me hate him for it. (I also lost to him lmao)
I was excited when i finally beat Grodus but then Bowser comes in and the second fight. Obviously i failed and i kinda died on the inside, it's really hard to win with the remaining health
If you didn't use up too much star power on Grodus, you can use Sweet Feast on the first turn to regenerate like 20 hp and 20 fp, that gives you a chance to tank attacks for 2-3 turns and with stylish moves you can recharge 5 points to repeat again the process
@D3mO44 I think they call it grade S. which i think is level 30. but i could be wrong, i havent played the game in awhile, sorry. But i know its the last level stage
@guy19910 Yea you dont need any items. I just had all those items for a safety net. Its not hard to get one mushroom and jelly tho. But 9 of each sort of is. But thanks for your tip, even tho it was already in the discription. The best way to make this fight way easier is try to have enough star points to level up after the grodus fight so you have full HP/ FP with the Bowser fight
I was looking forward to the remaster before my brother carelessly fried our switch! Now I have to get a new one (or the N.S.2) before the remake comes out, despite that I know most of the game and how it works!
@Cheetahhurricane he spilled water on the switch and the liquid reached the charger thingy. Frying it in the process. (Also, my mom got me a new Switch a few months ago.)
Uber D Haha, that would be way too sad dude. Rather, I'd say we should have just let the franchise die after Super Paper Mario, as Miyamoto's idiocy has completely ruined it.
alot faster, so you dont need to be so leanient about your star powers. To preform this tho, depends on the type of move and badge you use! Like the normal jump attack, hit A to attack, than when Marios at the highest point in his jump, hit A again. Than A once more to attack the enemy again...its hard to explan via text Lastly the counter attack, instead of hitting A do defend on an enemys attack, if you hit B with exellent timeing, you will take no damage and do one damage to the enemy! Help?
when you reach level 30 i think you get it, its based on levels ik. and the reason you get less star points is because of grinding on older chapter enemies, you have to go for stronger ones. best level up trick is with the amazee dazees in the twilight chapter.
wow, so much mushrooms and jelly, can't you fight them without using that much items? i already got to this level , but i still have trouble with it because of my health. here's a tip about gronus: HP: 60 (i think) attack: 7 defense: 1
You lost your game!? if u havent played this game inna few years, u should buy it back! I know its not to much...its defenitly worth it! With this video, u can even beat this fight now!
At 10:28, when you're choosing your tactical options, it went perfectly with the beat of the music (which by the way is my favorite music in the game)
Woah that's so cool
Mine as well!!!
Beans I know your comment is 8 years old but yeah I can agree cuz I like this music.

You could say I'm spoiled, cause I leveled up before unexpectedly fighting bowser.
me too, still can't beat him
I like how in this game kammy koopa got the battle she deserved in the first one. I almost forgot she ever actually had a solid battle, aside from the silly one with twink.
I want a remake of TTYD on the Wii U in the near future, please hear some of our requests Nintendo.
Nooooo its fine how it is. We really need a new GOOD Paper Mario!
Yeah, the last decent Paper Mario game in my opinion was the one for the Wii, I hated Sticker Star.
GaroLeader Does Paper Jam seem to satisfy your needs on a good Paper Mario title? I think it's a step up from Sticker Star.
+Subspace King It's really more of a Mario & Luigi game.
+Subspace King Yeah, it's Mario & Luigi, not Paper Mario. Color Splash sucks though.
"Today's the day I flush the plumber down the drain!"
Bowser, you are MY MAN.
Also, why do both BiS and TTYD both have final battles taking place in rooms behind their thrones
Who knows 🤷♂️
your pfp
And also Superstar Saga
@A Cool YoTooBist origami king? SPOILER ALERT
Grodus has 50 health.
Macho Grubba has 60 health.
Makes sense cuz grubba was on steroids and Grodus is what happens when you become one with the PC master race
Flaredeity specter knight?
Shark trooper 6 yeah boi. Specter is my shiz right now
Probably because Grodus is a baby and puts on 4 shields when you're not constantly wailing on him.
When fighting Grodus, attack his staff, seems like I'm the only one who knows this, but the staff has an HP of 8, but upon destroying it, it really hinders his attacks and defenses, I suggest Power Lift, then Power Jump onto the Staff, then use Vivian's Fiery Jinx to take out the Grodus Xs, rinse and repeat, you'll be done in a jiffy it'll be laughably easy and you'll have enough energy left to pummel Bowser and Kammy, as for them, use Tornado Jump on Bowser, (after a Power Lift of course, and I hope you've got that spike badge on, you'll need it), if you have anything Icy use it, it may freeze them buying you time to heal, oh and Fiery Jinx or knock down Kami and use Gulp, but don't bother with stop watches or anything of the sort, those rarely work on enemies that strong.
Wait, you can attack the staff?!

The most ironic moment in all of Mario. Bowser just unintentionally.........

If you think the fight against bowser and kammy koopa is difficult, just wait until the final boss!
@@alexniemann4387 can’t believe I wrote this 7 years ago 😂 but yes it is hard!!
@@MetaMikeG what's hard?
He seems like a good Big Brother contestant xD
Question: If the characters in this game were voiced, what would Sir Grodus sound like?
Kyle Stubbs deepest voice ever lol
Kyle Stubbs - Probably dark, metallic, and Darth Vader-y. He needs a slightly raspy voice to fit with his laugh, too.
Deep voice
@the crewmember with amazing arms Like… Megatron from _Transformers: Animated?_
I always read his dialogue in my best Mark Hamill Joker impression. I don't know why, it just feels right.
this guy is like Huff n Puff of Paper Mario 64
ugh I hated huff n puff
Huff n puff was easy, just use super jump charge power bounce and tidal wave
He is the only boss from paper mario that gave me so much trouble lol. I even defeated bowser after fighting grodus in a single try but huff n puff is true shit lol.
That Boss gave me so much trouble
I like how Bowser has the same attacks here as in paper mario, minus the star rod powers. I also like that Kammy joins him and is actually more annoying
Yeah I like that this game gave kammy koopa the battle she deserved in the first one.
Holy cow, the Bowser music is awesome

After many tries I was ready to land the killing blow on bowser only for a boo to come up and give him invisibility
Grodus is basically if Emperor Belos from Owl House was a Mario character.
Did you know the lines that Grodus says when you choose "Attack" or "Don't attack" are actually reversed?
I meant to say the lines were swapped.
so if you press attack you don't attack and vice versa?
don't mind me, just trying to forget about color splash existing
DO NOT SAY THE C S WORDS

i like this to be in the swicth
Oh eat me, Grodus to me is a forgettable villain
I love the Paper Mario Series so much
Well except for sticker star
And Super Paper Mario :^/
+Yoshi Jr. take that back! super paper mario was great.
+Yoshi Jr. Super Paper Mario was almost as amazing as this game in my opinion.
Yoshi Jr. TAKE THAT BACK. TAKE IT, THAT WAS MY CHILDHOOD
Yoshi Jr. I'm sure the Shadow Queen will find a perfect place for you in hell for that comment.
Mario isn’t able to jump when it says that he can’t use jump? What the heck is up with that? He could always do that.
I could imagine how hard this was for everyone during their first time fighting them.
8:38 EPIC
FUCK YOUR HERE
I stopped cus mine kept freazing on me. But I started playing it again recently and it worked just fine
I used to be so good at the B button deflect/attack, i could deflect the lightning strikes easily
I was excited when i finally beat Grodus but then Bowser comes in and the second fight. Obviously i failed and i kinda died on the inside, it's really hard to win with the remaining health

@@EdDiMe17 I don't even have the option to do stylish moves
I think I must be one of the few that never used the Power Bounce badge because it's so boring.
@D3mO44 I think they call it grade S. which i think is level 30. but i could be wrong, i havent played the game in awhile, sorry. But i know its the last level stage
8:48 Bowser killed Grodus
I always hesitated to use Supernova since the first time I used it it crashed the game. I got good with Art Attack instead.

Well, she obviously didn't die here, but it's true that this was her last appearance. Another thing we can thank good ol' Miyamoto for.
Dobadobadooo Yeah, Might as well have just killed her off to be honest

Imagine if they made king ollys hp 755 so that would combined grodus shadow queen dimentio super dimentio
Is there a mistake when Grodus threaten the player? It always looks like the responses are reversed or something...
True. took me like 3 playthroughs before I finally beat it, partly because my game kept freazing on the peach fight
How did Bowser and Kammy enter the Palace of Shadow? Through the door like Mario and Grodus?
maybe he was over it during the grodus fight

Thats why I made these videos! To help you man, If you need more help on anything on this game, ill try my best. ^-^
Not the final fight almost though
