| | |tattle=That's Macho Grubba. He's Grubba all souped-up on Crystal Star power. His attack pattern is simple: first he increases the number of times he can attack... Then he powers himself up with all sorts of crazy power-uppy moves. So, it's pretty important to pay close attention to how he's powered himself up. The craziest thing about this meathead is that he used to be that chubby Grubba. I guess the crystal Stars really ARE powerful! |

| '''Macho Grubba''' is the powered-up form of [[Grubba]], the true chapter boss of the [[Glitz Pit]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', and the keeper of the real [[Gold Star]]. In this state, he has sixty [[Heart Point|HP]] and a very wide variety of attacks. After being defeated, Grubba's power-sucking machine goes off, returning energy to [[Bandy Andy]] and [[King K]], freeing [[Prince Mush]], and reverting Grubba back to his normal form.

|
| Macho Grubba is one of three chapter bosses not affiliated with either [[Grodus]] or the [[Shadow Queen]] throughout the entire game (the others being [[Cortez]] and [[Smorg]]). He is also one of four chapter bosses the [[Yoshi Kid]] can swallow, the others being [[Doopliss]], [[Grodus]] and the [[Shadow Queen]] (first phase, before and after transformation). | | '''Macho Grubba''' is the powered-up form of [[Grubba]], also the true final boss of the [[Glitz Pit]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. He gets quite a makeover, going from blue to orange with a spiky shell and a wild orange hairdo, but still retains his original vest, glasses, and tie. In this state, he has 60 [[HP]], and also has a very wide variety of attacks, including buffing himself, allowing himself to attack twice, and boosting his Attack Points. After being defeated, his power-sucking machine goes off, returning energy to [[Bandy Andy]] and [[King K]], and freeing [[Prince Mush]]. In this form, he looks a lot like an orange [[Tubba Blubba]]. |

| |
| After being powered up by the Gold Star, Macho Grubba has the ability to tilt the scales in battle to his favor. At the beginning of the fight, Macho Grubba gains the ability to [[Fast|attack twice]] per turn. He then uses this ability to first use one of several buffs, increasing his [[ATK-Up|attack power]] for a turn, or [[DEF-Up|defense]] or [[Dodgy|evasiveness]] for two turns, then doing a running jump attack onto Mario or his partner.
| |
|
| |
|
| Later in the fight, Macho Grubba may also choose to use a buff that [[Charged|charges up]] his next attack by 4 damage, and attacks with either a backflip, or a punch that hits both Mario and his partner.
