When Croco escapes, Mallow starts to cry, and a rainstorm begins. Mario talks to Mallow, who says that Croco stole his grandpa [[Frog Sage]]'s [[Frog Coin]] that Mallow was supposed to trade for a [[Cricket Pie]]. Mario agrees to get the Frog Coin back for Mallow and Mallow joins Mario. They move on to [[Bandit's Way]], where they spot Croco. They chase him, until he hops on blocks to get past the area with boulders blocking the paths. He claims he is "still 100 miles ahead", so Mario and Mallow continue to chase him through Bandit's Way until they hit a dead end. Croco goes into hiding. Mario and Mallow sneak behind him thrice to shock him. Just before Croco is able to run for a fourth time, Mallow yells at him to stop running. Croco claims he will give the coin back, but instead attacks. | ||
In battle, Croco attacks by ramming into a [[party member]] or throwing a [[bomb]]. He is weak to fire and, the first time he is hit with a fire attack such as [[Fireball]], his tail catches on fire and he wastes a turn trying to put it out. At low HP, he uses a [[Weird Mushroom (move)|Weird Mushroom]] to heal, and after enough damage is dealt to Croco, Mallow again runs up to him and scolds him, threatening to give another belting to him if the coin is not returned. Croco gives it to the duo, hops around with anger, and leaves. | In battle, Croco attacks by ramming into a [[party member]] or throwing a [[bomb]].
