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]], 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. He is also one of three chapter bosses not affiliated with either [[Sir Grodus]] or the [[Shadow Queen]] throughout the entire game (the others being [[Cortez]] and [[Smorg]]). He is also one of four chapter bosses the [[Mini-Yoshi|Yoshi Kid]] can swallow, the others being [[Doopliss]], [[Sir Grodus|Grodus]] and the [[Shadow Queen]] (first phase, before and after transformation). | ||

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. | After being powered up by the Gold Star, Macho Grubba has the ability to tilt the scales in battle to his favor.

== | ==Trivia== | ||
* | *Like [[Rawk Hawk]], Macho Grubba also fights in the manner of a heel character, which is a villainous wrestler who uses dirty, underhanded tactics to win. As stated by Macho Grubba, himself, he ''"had so many rump-kickin' moves they had to make some illegal."''; indicating he was, indeed, a heel. | ||
