'''Dreamy Bowser''' is an enhanced form of [[Bowser]] and is the final boss of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]''. He is created when Bowser inhaled the shattered remains of the [[Dream Stone]]. While in this form, Bowser is much larger, glows with bright colors reminiscent of those of the late Dream Stone, and has objects resembling the Dream Stone on his head and stomach.
'''Dreamy Bowser''' is an enhanced form of [[Bowser]] and the final boss in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]''. He is created when Bowser inhales the shattered remains of the [[Dream Stone]]. While in this form, Bowser is much larger, glows with bright colors reminiscent of those of the Dream Stone, and has purple, pupilless eyes and objects resembling the Dream Stone on his head and stomach. "Dreamy Bowser" is also the name for Bowser in the dream world, like [[Dreamy Mario]], who [[Dreamy Luigi]] and [[Mario]] fought previously. Similar to [[Bowletta]] and [[Shrowser]] from previous [[Mario & Luigi (series)|''Mario & Luigi'' games]], he is an enhanced version of Bowser (with the exception of [[Dark Bowser]], who is actually the [[Dark Star]] taking the form of Bowser).

[[Image:Dreamy Bowser.png|thumb|200px|left|Dreamy Bowser about to fight [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]].]]
On the balcony of [[Neo Bowser Castle]], Bowser appears in front of a caged [[Princess Peach|Peach]] and reveals to the Mario Bros., Starlow and Dreambert his intentions with the [[Dream Stone]]. He begins to use it to erase the Mario Bros. from existence. Right before he is able to go further with his plan, [[Starlow]] and [[Princess Peach|Peach]] use "the power of good thoughts" to interrupt his attack and destroy the Dream Stone upon [[Prince Dreambert|Dreambert's]] insistence, but Bowser inhales the Dream Stone shards, still intending to get rid of [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]]. Although he regrets inhaling it (mentioning that the taste of the Dream Stone is "gross") and starts to cough and splutter, the Dream Stone's remains empower Bowser, turning him into Dreamy Bowser. With his new unlimited power and extra strength from the Dream Stone, Dreamy Bowser reveals his true intentions to kidnap Peach for himself, take over [[Pi'illo Island]] and eventually the entire world. The empowered Koopa King engages Mario and Luigi in combat.
After [[Starlow]] and [[Princess Peach|Peach]] destroy the Dream Stone, Bowser inhales the broken pieces of it and transforms into Dreamy Bowser. He engages [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] in combat, and is defeated by them. This form of Bowser explodes and turns into normal Bowser. Brothers immediately take him out with their [[Hammers]], send him flying, and free Peach from the prison. <ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G8HQfQxCNps</ref>
 
Upon defeat, Dreamy Bowser explosively expels the remains of the Dream Stone from his body and reverts to his normal form, albeit dazed from his power and weakened. The Mario Bros. then immediately take him out with their [[hammers]], sending him flying and freeing Peach from her prison.

==Battle==
[[File:Dreamy Bowser3.jpg|thumb|250px|Dreamy Bowser using his gigantic hammer.]]
[[File:Dreamy Bowser3.png|thumb|left|250px|Dreamy Bowser using his gigantic hammer.]]
Dreamy Bowser's attacks consist of using the Dream Stone's amazing power. One attack of this form of Bowser involves shooting giant, rainbow-coloured fireballs, which the Bros. need to jump at the same time to avoid. He clones himself during this attack to shoot double the fireballs; each of the fireballs shot by the clones can only strike a single brother.


Dreamy Bowser in battle has 3 targets that can be attacked; his body, and both his left hand and right hand. The body includes his entire stomach and head region, with it taking critical damage from aerial attacks. Dreamy Bowser can only perform certain attacks and actions with his arms present. His right arm will block any attacks to his head, completely negating any damage and preventing aerial attacks. His left arm will periodically be used to grab a brother; the remaining brother cannot use Bros. Attacks as long as a brother is being held, and Dreamy Bowser will throw the brother either that turn or within a few turns if the left arm is still intact, forcing the remaining brother to catch the thrown brother by rapidly pressing their jump button to dash: the thrown brother will take damage every time he bounces off the ground. Dreamy Bowser will simply drop the bro if one bro is KO'd, his left arm is disabled, or if he uses his giant attack or summoning attack.
Dreamy Bowser can also create multi-coloured minions from portals to charge at the Bros; after summoning these enemies, Bowser will retreat to the background, where he will heal all his body parts 200 HP every turn by eating endless piles of meat until the minions are destroyed, if the Bros. manage to avoid getting struck by a sufficient number of his minions during an attack, Bowser will also slam his fists into the ground to create a shockwave that must be jumped over, and any attempt to attack Bowser while he is in the background will result in the Bro that initiated the attack being struck with lightning unless the 'attack' was a Taunt Ball.


Dreamy Bowser's main attacks are as follows:
A third attack begins with Bowser summoning a giant hammer, which he subsequently tries to hit the brothers with; Bowser will drop a coin with the Bros. initial on each side to reveal which brother will be attacked first and thus which brother will first need to pull out his own hammer to stop Bowser's hammer.


* Dreamy Bowser can shoot giant, rainbow-colored fireballs, which the Bros. need to [[jump]] at the same time to avoid. He clones himself part-way during this attack to shoot double the fireballs, where the fireballs shot now alternate between each Bro.
Bowser can also create an airship with rainbow-coloured Shy Guy DXs (called the Shy Guy Airtub DX) that will chase Luigi as the Bowser head of the Shy Guy Airtub DX fires flames at Luigi; while on said airship Mario must repeatedly attack the Shy Guy Airtub DX after getting through (presumably) the Shy Guy DXs with his hammer while Luigi jumps over the fireballs it generates. The Shy Guy Airtub DX will go into the background if it either hits Luigi or survives this attack and will shoot cannonballs every turn; the left cannon on the ship will shoot cannonballs at Mario, the right one at Luigi, and the middle one will simply not hit anyone. These cannonballs will damage the Shy Guy Airtub DX if successfully struck with a hammer.


* Dreamy Bowser can summon a giant [[hammer]], which he subsequently tries to hit the brothers with; Dreamy Bowser will flip a coin with the Bros'. initials on each side to reveal which brother will be attacked first, and the moment the coin lands on the initial, the selected Bro. must counter Dreamy Bowser's hammer strike with their own hammer. If the Bros. successfully counter the initial strike, then Dreamy Bowser will go for the other Bro., who must also hit him with their hammer to fend off the attack.
Another dangerous attack Bowser may perform involves the Koopa grow giant, forcing the Bros. to flee; Bowser will soon start chasing them while spewing 3 massive streams of moving fire that must be jumped over and which deal massive damage if they are not jumped over successfully. If the Bros. dodge the fire, Bowser will jump and create a shockwave that also must be jumped over. Bowser will then repeat this performance, but his second jump will end in his landing on one of Neo Bowser Castle's many sharp spires, deflating him back to normal size.


* Dreamy Bowser can become giant sized, forcing the Bros. to flee into the foreground. Dreamy Bowser will soon start chasing them while spewing three massive streams of moving fire that must be jumped over as he strafes left and right, or the Bros. take massive damage. If the Bros. dodge the fire, Dreamy Bowser will jump and create a shockwave that also must be jumped over. He will then repeat the fire stream attack, but his second jump will end in his landing on a sharp spire, deflating him back to normal size.
Bowser's arms are very important in this battle in the sense that Bowser can only perform certain attacks and actions with his arms present. His left arm will periodically be used to grab a brother so the remaining bro cannot use Bros. Attacks as long as a brother is being held, and Bowser will throw the brother either that turn or within a few turns if the left arm is still intact, forcing the remaining brother to catch the thrown brother by rapidly pressing their jump button to dash: the thrown brother will take damage every time he bounces off the ground. Note that Dreamy Bowser will drop the bro if one bro is KO'd, if he decides to turn giant or use an attack which requires both hands (I.E summoning minions).


Dreamy Bowser can also create an [[Airship]] with Dreamy Shy Guys (called the [[Shy Guy Airtub DX]]) that will chase Luigi as the Bowser head of the ship fires flames at Luigi. While on said airship, Mario must repeatedly attack the Dreamy Shy Guys with his hammer to reach the bow where he can damage the Bowser head, while Luigi jumps over the fireballs it generates. If Mario takes too long to destroy the Airtub with the hammer, he will eventually be dropped off the ship and the Airtub will go into the background of the fight. Here, it will shoot [[cannonball]]s every turn; the left [[cannon]] on the ship will shoot cannonballs at Mario, the right one fires at Luigi, and the middle one will simply not hit anyone. These cannonballs will damage the Shy Guy Airtub DX if successfully deflected with a hammer. It can be hit with a [[Taunt Ball]] to initiate the chasing attack against Luigi, allowing the player another chance to destroy it. The Airtub will chase Mario instead if Luigi is KO'd or held captive by Dreamy Bowser.
His right arm is even more important, as it will prevent Bowser's body from taking any damage from aerial attacks while it is still active. However, when it is destroyed, Bowser takes critical damage from aerial attacks. The Bros. need to disable this arm if they want to attack Bowser with any aerial attacks, including even strong ones such as [[Star Rocket]].


[[File:DreamyBowserEnemies.png|thumb|left|250px|Dreamy Bowser about to heal himself with meat after just having summoned [[Dreamy Goomba]]s, [[Dreamy Shy Guy]]s, [[Dreamy Bob-omb]]s, and [[Dreamy Paratroopa]]s.]]
Unusually for background enemies, using Taunt Balls on Dreamy Bowser or his Shy Guy Airtub DX causes them to perform a specific action rather than just bringing them into the foreground. Throwing a Taunt Ball at the Shy Guy Airtub DX will cause it to repeat its opening attack at Bowser's orders and then return to the background, defeating the normal purpose of using a Taunt Ball: however, Mario can potentially destroy the Airship during its attack if he's fast enough.
Dreamy Bowser's last attack involves summoning an assortment of dreamy minions and moving to the background. Here, he will heal his arms 200 HP and his body 150 HP every turn by eating endless piles of meat until the minions are destroyed. His attack while in the background involves sending all the minions to charge at the Bros. two at a time, which include [[Dreamy Goomba]]s that can jumped over or on, [[Dreamy Paratroopa]]s that can be sent back at minions behind them, [[Dreamy Shy Guy]]s that will jump over the Bros, and [[Dreamy Bob-omb]]s that will explode on contact. If the Bros. manage to avoid a sufficient number of his minions during this attack, Dreamy Bowser will also slam his fists into the ground to create a shockwave that must be jumped over, and eliminates any of the minions it hits. Throwing a Taunt Ball at Dreamy Bowser will cause him to jump into the foreground and chase the brothers through the minion crowd repeatedly; The Bros. must jump over or on the minions to avoid getting stepped on by Dreamy Bowser, who will also instantly KO minions upon contact. Dreamy Bowser will return to the main area if either all the minions are defeated, or after a few turns with less than 5 minions left.  
 
Throwing a Taunt Ball at Bowser will cause him to jump into the foreground and, if enough of his minions are left, to chase the brothers through the minion crowd, the Bros. must jump over or on the minions to avoid getting stepped on by Bowser, but Bowser's feet will also OHKO minions upon contact. Much like the Shy Guy Airtub DX Bowser will return to the background after he either stomps on a brother or tramples most of his minions.

== Trivia ==
* Dreamy Bowser is the fourth final boss in the ''Mario and Luigi'' series that is an altered form of [[Bowser]]. The other final bosses being [[Bowletta]] from [[Superstar Saga]], [[Shrowser]] from [[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time|Partners in Time]], and [[Dark Bowser]] in [[Bowser's Inside Story]].
** He is also the only one alongside Dark Bowser that doesn't have Bowser being possessed by another villain, and only the second (Shrowser being the first) to have Bowser's personality.
*Dreamy Bowser has the highest stats of any mandatory boss in the ''Mario & Luigi'' games, not counting Chakron. He also has the fifth highest health of any mandatory ''Mario & Luigi'' boss(third if the arms are counted, and second if Elder Princess Shroob's arms, crown or legs are not counted), beaten only by Princess Shroob, both of her sister's forms, and the preceding fight with Antasma, narrowly beating him out with 2435 HP compared to Dreamy Bowser's 2417.
*The way Dreamy Bowser's arms can be destroyed is similar to the final boss with Giant Bowser in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'', where his arm can be destroyed as well. Interesting both ''Sticker Star'' and ''Dream Team'' have Bowser becoming the main villain and final boss, and being empowered by a wish-granting artifact.
*"Dreamy Bowser" is also the name for Bowser in the dream world, like [[Dreamy Luigi]], who Giant Dreamy Luigi and Mario fought previously.

* The way Dreamy Bowser's arms are destroyed is similar to the battle with [[Queen Bean]] and [[Cackletta]]'s spirit in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', [[Shadow Queen]] from ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', and the final boss battle with [[Bowser#Paper Mario Sticker Star|Giant Bowser]] in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]''.
*An [[List of Mario & Luigi: Dream Team pre-release and unused content|early design]] of Dreamy Bowser depicted him having a spiral on his belly instead of the Dream Stone-like object.
