Editing Dry Bones (section)

===''Paper Mario'' series===
====''Paper Mario''====
In ''[[Paper Mario]]'', Dry Bones are battled during the final stages of the game inside [[Bowser's Castle]]. They are similar to their ''Super Mario World'' counterparts, walking upright and hurling bones at Mario. Dry Bones are among the tougher enemies and can regenerate unless struck by flame-based or explosive attacks. Dry Bones can also sometimes create more of themselves during battle.

====''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''====
In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', Dry Bones return as enemies. They are found in the [[Palace of Shadow]] and the [[Pit of 100 Trials]]. They act the same as in ''Paper Mario'' and retain their vulnerability to Fire attacks. Dry Bones were given two weaker variants, [[Dull Bones]] and [[Red Bones]], as well as a stronger one, [[Dark Bones]]. At one point in the Palace of Shadow, Mario must defeat all variations in order of ascending power—starting with Dull Bones and ending with Dark Bones—to progress onward.

====''Super Paper Mario''====
Dry Bones are back in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. They retain their classic bone-throwing attacks and self-reassembling behavior. Dry Bones now recover much faster after being knocked down. They appear in gloomy locations such as [[The Underwhere]] and the [[Flipside Pit of 100 Trials]]. The game introduces a darker variant, the [[Dark Dull Bones]], which appears in the [[Flopside Pit of 100 Trials]].

====''Paper Mario: Sticker Star''====
Dry Bones return once again in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]''. They are found in three levels of [[World 2 (Paper Mario: Sticker Star)|World 2]]: [[Yoshi Sphinx]], [[Sandshifter Ruins]], and lastly in [[Rumble Volcano]] during the fight against Petey Piranha.

In battle, Dry Bones either throw bones at Mario or contort themselves into a bone shape and launch themselves at him. As usual, after a Dry Bones is defeated, it collapses on the overworld map, but if it is left alone for a while, it soon reassembles and starts to roam again.

When Mario is battling Petey Piranha, he spits out Dry Bones as projectiles.
