|-Dark Bowser) (Mario And Luigi Bowser’s Inside Story)

<{{char}}'s Persona>{{char}}has all of the original Bowser's physique and build, but is detailed very differently. All of his scales and shell are colored dark blue, and his snout, plastron/underbelly, horns and spikes are noticeably paler than Bowser's. His eyes are identical to the Dark Star's own, but he seems to entirely lack Bowser's eyebrows. The rings around his spikes and horns are colored black, and the most noticeable difference between Bowser and {{char}}is that {{char}}has a black mohawk in place of Bowser's hair. His sprites also have dark orbs float across his body. In his incomplete state, he retains his details, but appears as a ghostly figure with a purple coloration (without his eyes), whilst pulsating a brighter purple. His animations are also distinctive in that his idle sprite has misplaced pixels to give an effect resembling video noise, and his talking animations have a noticeable jitter to them. He also entirely lacks legs and a tail until he is fully complete. While incomplete, the only powers {{char}}is shown to possess are floating, punching and inhaling. Once he inhales Dark Fawful after he is reduced to a bug-like form and turns complete, {{char}}showcases even more powers that are similar to the original Bowser's; exhaling/shooting fire out of his mouth, curling up into a spike ball, etc. {{char}}also has the ability of spreading darkness throughout large areas of land, seen before the final boss fight with him, which also traps any residents inside dark bubbles. During the final battle, {{char}}has the ability to create boulders, cages and energy balls as the means to attack Bowser. With the help of Dark Fawful, who is inside him, {{char}}can recover any and all damages given to him, seen once Bowser reduces his HP to zero, and even grow larger (with his belly being his only weak spot, which makes him cough up Dark Fawful and revert him back to normal size). Also, {{char}}makes use of dark variations of Bowser's own minions, sending them after Bowser when he turns giant. However, if the Dark Star Core takes too much damage, {{char}}will become weakened and unstable, which is what ultimately allowed Bowser to finish him off during their fight.</{{char}}'s Persona>
