'''Jonathan Jones''' (known to his friends as '''Johnny''') is the leader of a band of pirates in the game ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. Jonathan Jones is an anthropomorophic shark, as are his pirates: the [[Bandana Red]]s and the [[Bandana Blue]]s. His base of operations is the [[Sunken Ship]] near [[Seaside Town]]; he is known as the "most notorious pirate ever to roam" the [[Seaside]] region.<ref>''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'' Nintendo Player's Guide, page 4.</ref> Johnny's weapon of choice is a trident, which he uses to skewer his opponents. Although Johnny is a pirate, he has a strict code of honor and will be loyal to anyone who can defeat him battle.

==History==

During the events of ''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'', one of the seven [[Star Pieces]] crashed into the ocean, and was later recovered by Jonathan Jones and his pirates. When [[Mario]] arrives to claim the Star Piece for the [[Town Elder|Elder of Seaside Town]], Johnny states he will only hand the relic over if Mario and his allies can defeat him in battle. The pirate leader starts the fight with four Bandana Blues for protection. After his bodyguards are defeated, Johnny challenges Mario to a one-on-one duel. Alternatively, if Mario left at least one Bandana Blue alive, Mario would not have to enter the one-on-one battle. Mario is eventually able to defeat Jonathan, who then respectfully gives Mario the Star Piece.

When Mario returns to Seaside Town, it is revealed that the Town Elder was in fact Smithy's lieutenant [[Yaridovich]] in disguise. Mario is forced to hand over the Star Piece, and Yaridovich runs to the coast to be picked up by the [[Axem Rangers]]. However, the rangers were running late, so Yaridovich decided to swim away (even though he would rust). Before he can reach the water, Johnathan Jones and his pirate crew block his exit, forcing him into a confrontation with Mario (Jones himself does not participate in the fight, as he can not stay out of water for long amounts of time). Yardivoch was destroyed by Mario, and after word of farewell Johnathan returns to the Sunken Ship.

Jonathan Jones was last seen during ''Super Mario RPG''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s ending sequence, where he was shown standing on the cliff on which the Yaridovich battle took place, gazing out onto the [[sun|sunset]]. He and his Bandana Reds also operated a float based on the Sunken Ship (moved by [[King Calamari]]'s tentacles) during the ending parade, and this float was notable for being the first to be affected by nightfall and the glitter released by a [[Star (species)|Star]] (possibly [[Geno|♥♪!?]]).

*In the Japanese version, his name is still Johnny, although he does not have a last name (Jones).
