| | |tattle=That's a Dark Bones. It's the baddest of the Bones gang. Max HP is 20, Attack is 5 and Defense is 0. When its HP goes down to 0, it collapses into a pile, but it'll eventually rise again. Fire and explosions will put a permanent end to it getting back up, though. Its HP is high so it's hard to take it down. Like any other Bones, it sometimes builds friends if it feels outnumbered. It's a tough enemy. You better take it and it's buddies out all at once. |

| | '''Dark Bones''' are the most powerful type of [[Dry Bones]]. Instead of being a pale gray with red shoes, they are a very bluish violet with purple shoes. Dark Bones are only found in the Riddle Tower in the [[Palace of Shadow]]. This, of course, is in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. |

|
| '''Dark Bones''' are enemies in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' and its [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch)|Nintendo Switch remake]]. They are the most powerful type of [[Dry Bones]]. Instead of being pale gray with red shoes, they are indigo with purple shoes. Dark Bones are only found in the [[Palace of Shadow]], where they are seen twice, once in a corridor and yet again in [[Palace of Shadow Tower]].
| | Dark Bones made a surprise appearance in ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'' as Red Dry Bones. In this game, however, Dark Bones had a red, spiked shell and a horn on the end of his nose, similar to a [[Rex]]. He also wore red shoes and gloves. |
|
| |
|
| The first Dark Bones' pre-battle speech seems to indicate that it has been ordered to keep the Shadow Queen from awakening. Once Mario interacts with the inanimate Dark Bones pile, a horde of Dry Bones fills the room and Mario must use his hammer to drive them off and reach the Dark Bones. During the battle, the Dark Bones fights alongside four Dry Bones. In the remake, a different arrangement of the Event Battle 2 theme plays in this battle.
| | It is unknown whether Dark Bones affiliate with [[King Bowser|Bowser]] or not, but they appear to be affiliated with the [[Shadow Queen]]. |
|
| |
|
| The second Dark Bones appears in a room with a [[Dull Bones]], a [[Red Bones]], and a Dry Bones. To obtain the room's [[Palace Key (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Palace Key]], Mario must defeat each enemy from weakest to strongest, with the Dark Bones being the strongest.

| In battle, Dark Bones behave like regular Dry Bones, having the same moves and stats except much higher HP. After being defeated in both areas they appear in, they cannot be fought again.
| |
|
| |
| In the Super Mario Mash-up in ''[[Minecraft]]'', the Wither Skeletons resemble Dark Bones.
