Darkle is a power used by Grape in Princess Peach: Showtime! It is the antithesis to Stella's Sparkle. Its name is a portmanteau of "dark" and "Sparkle." This power is also used by a group of Grape's minions called Darkle Bosses who work with Grape to rewrite the Sparkle Theater's plays into tragedies. Peach must defeat a Darkle Boss at the end of each floor to proceed to the next one. There are a total of four of them:
In the post-game, they can be re-fought by heading up to paintings that have appeared between the two upper stairs on the floors they were originally fought in. These re-fights are mandatory for 100% completion, as up to three Sparkle Gems per Darkle Boss is given for fulfilling specific criteria while beating the Darkle Bosses in re-fights.
