In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' | In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', Dull Bones are weaker than Dry Bones and appear commonly in [[Hooktail Castle]], appearing among many identical lifeless piles. Dull Bones attack by throwing bones at [[Mario]] and his partners. Despite having very low [[Heart Point|HP]], their defense power makes them slightly harder to defeat. Still, they are easily taken out by simply using the [[Hammer]]. Using a [[POW Block]] or [[Koops]]’s [[Power Shell]] is also very efficient, especially when there are many Dull Bones in battle. Unlike Dry Bones, they cannot reassemble once they are smashed. However, Dull Bones can construct other Dull Bones to help in the fight. A subtype of Dull Bones, the [[Red Bones]], appears as a miniboss here and summons an enormous horde of Dull Bones to repel Mario, though these are not fought in the typical way and instead must be pushed through. Three of them later appear in the [[Glitz Pit]] called the [[Dead Bones]]. One is also in the [[Riddle Tower]] as the weakest Dry Bones-esque enemy, which must be defeated first. They also appear in the first ten floors of the [[Pit of 100 Trials (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Pit of 100 Trials]]. | ||

Dull Bones also appear in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', where they are now stronger than Dry Bones and can be found in [[The Underwhere]], [[Castle Bleck]] and in the [[Flipside Pit of 100 Trials]]. Unlike Dry Bones, Dull Bones can throw bones to attack. They are very weak against [[Bowser]]'s [[Fire Breath]]. A shadowy version called the [[Dark Dull Bones]] appears in the [[Flopside Pit of 100 Trials]]. | |||
