Dark Boos are enemies in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. They are encountered in [[Underwhere Road]] and in a few rooms of the [[Flipside Pit of 100 Trials]]. Here, they hide in 3-D, waiting for the player to walk by. Then, they [[flip]] to 2-D and sneak attack them. While in 3D, they act just like regular Boos, turning intangible when looked at and chasing the player when not. Shadowy versions of Dark Boos, called [[Dark Dark Boo]]s, can be found in the [[Flopside Pit of 100 Trials]].

Dark Boos are enemies in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''. They are encountered in the [[Gritzy Caves]] area. Dark Boos attack only by appearing behind a brother and ramming him, similarly, except Dark Boos are faster and inflict more damage. If a Dark Boo opens its right eye, the attack is aimed at [[Mario]], but if its left eye is opened, the attack is aimed at [[Luigi]]. If one of the Mario Bros. is attacked, the Dark Boo steals either a normal [[Item]] or a [[Bros. Item]] and will [[flee]] with the item on the next turn if not defeated quickly. They are usually encountered in large groups, rarely appearing alongside other enemies. Dark Boos are resilient to [[Fire Flower|Bro Flower]]s, [[Ice Flower]]s and [[Mix Flower]]s. Unlike the ones in the ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' series, Dark Boos lack yellow eyes and the blue mouth/tongue.
Dark Boos reappear in ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time'' in the [[Gritzy Caves]] area, once again stronger than a normal Boo. A Dark Boo's only attack has it appear behind a brother and ram him, similar to their regular counterparts, albeit much faster. If it opens up its right eye, the attack is aimed at [[Mario]]. If it opens up its left eye, the attack is aimed at [[Luigi]]. If one of the Mario Bros. is attacked, the Dark Boo steals either a normal [[Item]] or a [[Bros. Item]] and will [[flee]] with the item on the next turn if not defeated quickly. They are usually encountered in large groups, rarely appearing alongside other enemies. Dark Boos are resilient to [[Fire Flower|Bro Flower]]s, [[Ice Flower]]s and [[Mix Flower]]s. Unlike the ones in the ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' series, Dark Boos lack yellow eyes and the blue mouth/tongue. Their Japanese name implies that they are shyer than the normal Boos, and, thus, may not be the same enemy.
