Baddies
You'll encounter some tough foes throughout your adventures in Mario Galaxy. This section details all of their weak points to ensure your strategic victory!
<< Powerups Prankster Comets >>

Dino Piranha
Location: Good Egg Galaxy - Dino Piranha
Melty Molten Galaxy - Fiery Dino Piranha
How to defeat: Notice the ball at the end of the dino's tail. Punch it to ram it into its egg, cracking it. It will start to chase after you. You must get behind it and repeat this process three times to defeat it. For the Fiery variation, do the same, but only when its tail is not on fire.
King Kaliente
Location: Good Egg Galaxy - King Kaliente's Battle Fleet
Bowser Jr.'s Lava Reactor - King Kaliente's Spicy Return
How to defeat: Avoid the rocks he spits out. When he spits out a green coconut, perform a spin attack to rebound it back at him. Repeat three times to defeat him.
Bugaboom
Location: Honeyhive Galaxy - Big Bad Bugaboom
How to defeat: Get on top of the giant insect and perform a ground pound (A+Z). Three hits are needed to defeat the boss.
Megalegs
Location: Bowser Jr.'s Robot Reactor - Megalegs' Moon
How to defeat: Climb up any one of its legs. Once on the upper portion, lure Bullet Bills towards the flashing red light at the top.
Kamella
Location: Space Junk Galaxy - Airship Attack
Deep Dark Galaxy - The Underground Ghost Ship
How to defeat: Avoid the fireballs she tosses. When she tosses a green shell, perform a spin attack to pick up the shell and perform another spin to toss it at her. Three shells and she's dead.
Tarantox
Location: Space Junk Galaxy - Tarantox's Tangled Web
How to defeat: Use the Sling Pods to catapult yourself onto the spider's green and red spots. Burst all of them to defeat it.
Topmaster
Location: Battlerock Galaxy - Topmaniac and the Topman Tribe
Dreadnought Galaxy - Revenge of the Topman Tribe
How to defeat: Jump on the Topman, while dodging the spikes. Then perform a spin attack.
Bouldergeist
Location: Ghostly Galaxy - Beware of Bouldergeist
How to defeat: Avoid the rocks it tosses and the spikes that raise out of the platform. Dark rocks contain Bomb Boos, which you must spin so that they explode on the boss. Three spins and the boss reassembles itself. Three more ends the battle.
Major Burrows
Location: Gusty Garden - Dirty Tricks of Major Burrows
How to defeat: Run between Major Burrows and the rabbit. When Burrows rises above the surface, perform a ground pound and spin into him. Repeat twice to defeat him.
Baron Brrr
Location: Freezeflame Galaxy - The Frozen Peak of Baron Brrr
How to defeat: Avoid his shock waves and spin into him. He turns small. Spin into him again to score a hit. Three hits and he's defeated. In short, he is defeated the same way as Lava and Ice Bubbles, except he has 3 hit points.
Bowser Jr,
Location: Bowser Jr.'s Airship Armada - sinking the Airships
How to defeat: Use the same strategy as for Kamella: stomp Koopas to obtain shells, and spin the Remote to toss them into his airship.
Bowser
Location: Bowser's Star Reactor - The Fiery Stronghold
Bowser's Dark Matter Reactor - Darkness on the Horizon
Bowser's Galaxy Reactor - The Fate of the Universe
How to defeat: Dodge his shockwaves and fireballs. Stand on top of a blue circle and lure Bowser so that he crashes into it. Once his tail is on fire, spin into him. He'll lose control and spin around the reactor very fast. Spin into him again. Three hits and he's defeated. The final battle is basically an extension of the regular battle, except spread out into three phases. In the first phase, spin into Bowser when he's in a boulder. In the second phase, spin into the green plants so they hit him. The final phase is the same.
