| '''Impostor Bowsers''', also referred to as '''fake Bowsers''' or as '''Bowser's decoys''' in ''[[NES Remix]]'', are standard enemies that were transformed to resemble [[Bowser]] and serve a comparable role to him. They first appear as [[list of bosses|bosses]] in the original ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', in which they were transformed by Bowser himself using his black magic.

|
| ==Concept and creation==
| | *World 1: [[Goomba]] |
| The concept of fake Bowsers came about during development of ''Super Mario Bros.'' Since all enemies have their sprites flipped upside-down when they are defeated (except for [[Piranha Plant]]s, which simply disappear, and [[Bullet Bill]]s, which stay rightside up), one of the programmers accidentally inserted an upside-down Koopa Troopa shell when portraying Bowser's death animation as if he were defeated with fireballs. The developers liked this idea, and as a result, this idea was extended to most of the Bowser battles in the game.<ref>https://www.giantbomb.com/false-bowser/3015-8320/{{better source}}</ref>
| | *World 2: [[Koopa Troopa]] |
| | *World 3: [[Buzzy Beetle]] |
| | *World 4: [[Spiny]] |
| | *World 5: [[Lakitu]] |
| | *World 6: [[Blooper]] |
| | *World 7: [[Hammer Brother]] |
|
| |
|
| ==History==
| | False Bowsers returned in ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'', aiding the true Bowser in his second bid for the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] throne. In this game, False Bowsers would appear in World 8-4 and D-4, along with the real Bowser. This Bowser was more of a mint-green color instead of the Normal color, however, in the [[Super Mario All Stars]] remake, he looked identical to Bowser. |
| ===''Super Mario'' series===
| |
| ====''Super Mario Bros.'' / ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels'' / ''Super Mario Bros. Deluxe''====
| |
| [[File:SMB W1-4 Fake Bowser Screenshot.png|thumb|The fake Bowser from World 1-4 in ''Super Mario Bros.'']]
| |
| In ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', the seven fake Bowsers are placed in each [[castle]], with [[World 8-4 (Super Mario Bros.)|Bowser's Castle]] containing the real one. Defeating a fake Bowser with five [[fireball]]s reveals that they are really just common enemies disguised as Bowser. The enemies and their abilities are the following:
| |
| *'''World 1''': [[Goomba|Little Goomba]] - [[Bowser's Flame|fire]]
| |
| *'''World 2''': [[Green Shell|Green]] [[Koopa Troopa]] - fire
| |
| *'''World 3''': [[Buzzy Beetle]] - fire
| |
| *'''World 4''': [[Spiny]] - fire
| |
| *'''World 5''': [[Lakitu]] - fire
| |
| *'''World 6''': [[Blooper|Bloober]]<!--DO NOT CHANGE TO "BLOOPER". "Bloober" was the name at the time of this game and should be the name displayed here. --> - [[hammer]]
| |
| *'''World 7''': [[Hammer Bro]]ther - hammer
| |
| ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'' additional worlds (in the ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'' version, the final fake Bowser is now replaced with the actual Bowser):
| |
| *'''World A''': Goomba - fire ([[Family Computer Disk System|FDS]]) / [[Red Shell|Red]] [[Koopa Troopa]] - hammer (''All-Stars'')
| |
| *'''World B''': Green Koopa Troopa - fire (FDS) / Green [[Cheep Cheep|Cheep-Cheep]] - hammer (''All-Stars'')
| |
| *'''World C''': Buzzy Beetle - fire (FDS) / [[Bullet Bill]] - hammer (''All-Stars'')
| |
| *'''World D''': [[Spiny]] - fire (FDS)
| |
| The "You VS. Boo" challenge of ''[[Super Mario Bros. Deluxe]]'':
| |
| *'''1-4''': Green [[Cheep Cheep|Cheep-Cheep]]
| |
| *'''2-4''': [[Bullet Bill]]
| |
| [[File:SMBLL World D-4 Bowser Imposter.png|thumb|[[Mario]] facing the fake [[Bowser's Brother]] in [[World D (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|World D-4]] of ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]''.]]
| |
| Like Bowser, the blue [[Bowser's Brother]] in World D-4 is also a fake revealed to be a Spiny when defeated with fireballs, and only breathes fire. In ''Super Mario All-Stars'', both of these fakes are replaced with the real ones that only throw hammers, although Bowser's Brother is now green and looks identical to his twin. Due to ''[[All Night Nippon: Super Mario Bros.]]'' also featuring Worlds A-D, all of the fake Bowsers from those worlds return, including the fake Bowser's Brother in World D-4.
| |
|
| |
|
| ====''Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3''====
| | A similar enemy, known as the [[Bowser Clone]], appeared in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. |
| In ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', a fake Bowser appears as a boss in the [[World-e]] level [[Classic World 1-4]], where it plays a similar role to that played in ''Super Mario Bros.'', though it looks identical to the game's real Bowser. It is revealed that the fake Bowser is a Goomba if it is defeated with fireballs. Since it acts like the fake Bowsers in ''Super Mario Bros.'', it is shown walking, unlike ''Super Mario Advance 4''{{'}}s (as well as every other version of ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''{{'}}s) depiction of Bowser, who only leaps.
| |
|
| |
|
| ====''Super Mario 3D Land''====
| | A False Bowser makes a cameo appearance in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. It is seen in a special area inside [[Bowser's Castle]] which is a side-scrolling level imitating a ''Super Mario Bros.'' level. The False Bowser appears at the end of that level. |
| While typical fake Bowsers do not appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'', variants powered by [[Super Leaf|Super Leaves]] known as [[Tail Bowser]]s make their first appearance.
| |
|
| |
|
| ====''Super Mario Run''====
| | A [[Dark Being|False Bowser made of Shadow Bugs]] is fought in [[The Subspace Emissary]] |
| In ''[[Super Mario Run]]'', fake Bowsers appear at the end of [[castle]] courses, excluding [[World 6 (Super Mario Run)|World 6]]'s [[Bowser's Bob-ombing Run]] and [[Make the Cut!]] which have the real Bowser. [[World 1 (Super Mario Run)| World 1]]'s castle, [[Bowser's Castle Hangout]], has a Goomba as the Fake Bowser. [[World 3 (Super Mario Run)|World 3]]'s [[Fire Bar Castle! Youch!]] has a Green Koopa Troopa as the Fake Bowser, and [[World 5 (Super Mario Run)|World 5]]'s [[Rings of Fire!]] has a Buzzy Beetle as the Fake Bowser. They walk back and forth along their bridge, occasionally shooting a [[Bowser's Flames|Bowser's Flame]], jumping, or jumping and briefly staying in the air to shoot a Bowser's Flame. A [[Pause Block]] is placed directly before the bridge, and a cutscene forces the player to stop on it the first time the player enters the area per run of the course. Fire Bar Castle! Youch! adds a [[Fire Bar]], while Rings of Fire! adds a [[Fire Chain]]. An [[Axe]] on the other side collapses the bridge, causing the Fake Bowser to reveal its true identity before falling into the lava.
| |
|
| |
|
| Fake Bowsers do not have an entry in the Notebook. Rather, a Fake Bowser counts as the enemy using the disguise. Thus, the results screen for a course shows that enemy, and adds one to the number of that enemy defeated for the purposes of [[level up|leveling up]] that enemy.
| | [[Category: Enemies]] |
| | | [[Category: Bosses]] |
| In Remix 10, some areas end in castles, with the [[VS Bowser]] course. A Fake Bowser must be defeated, through the same means as before. For doing so, the player receives all three of the course's [[Bonus Medal]]s. The Fake Bowser is always the disguised form of a Goomba. VS Bowser allows the player to enter with a [[Super Star]] or while [[Invincible Mario|invincible]], and touching a Fake Bowser while invincible defeats it instantly. It is knocked off the bridge without losing the disguise. Area 30's version instead has the real Bowser.

| {{quote|Bet you didn't see that coming. Bye-bye, Toady! Hello, humongous Impostor Bowser!|Kamek|Super Mario Party Jamboree}}
| |
| In ''[[Super Mario Party Jamboree]]'', [[Kamek]] transforms a [[Toady]] into a massive fake Bowser called Impostor Bowser. Unlike other Fake Bowsers, Impostor Bowser has a purple glow and Magikoopa magic symbols coming out of him. He replaces Bowser himself as the host of [[Bowser Space]]s due to Bowser being a playable character.
| |
| | |
| Impostor Bowser appears prominently on the [[King Bowser's Keep]] board, where he is in the middle of the Bowser Byway. Periodically, he will transform more spaces on the byway into Bowser Spaces, as well as changing the direction of travel should one of the [[Event Space]]s surrounding him be landed on. Uniquely on this board, he will grab players that land on Bowser Spaces instead of them being transported to another location, and even occasionally destroy the roulette to instantly steal a star or all of their coins. He also serves as the boss of that board in the Party-Planner Trek mode, being faced in the [[Bowser Crashers]] [[minigame]].
| |
| | |
| Aside from Mario Party mode, Impostor Bowser is also a focal point in the "Bowser Challenges", Koopathlon and Bowser Kaboom Squad. Both involve surviving attacks from Impostor Bowser, with the ultimate goal of the latter being to defeat him within the time limit.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| [[File:Superstarfalse.png|thumb|A cardboard Bowser in ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga''.]]
| |
| *The World 3 and World C (original) fake Bowsers are the only Buzzy Beetles that can be defeated by fireballs (outside of ''[[Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyūshutsu Dai Sakusen!]]''), and the World C (''All-Stars'') and "You VS. Boo" 2-4 (''Deluxe'') ones are the only Bullet Bills that can be defeated by fireballs.
| |
| **The World A and World C fake Bowsers in ''All-Stars'' are the only fake Bowsers whose true forms are right-side-up instead of upside-down.
| |
| *In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', an exaggerated cardboard Bowser suspended by a pair of ropes over a bridge is seen at the end of a special area inside [[Bowser's Castle]], which is a side-scrolling level imitating a ''Super Mario Bros.'' castle. [[Mario]] must move underneath the stationary object and touch the [[axe]] to make it fall.
| |
| *If the player beats [[Bowser's Sky Scuffle]] with any character barring [[Bowser Jr.]] in ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'', Bowser will reveal that the "Bowser" they defeated had been a decoy, which may have been a reference to the fake Bowsers.
