'''Raphael the Raven''' (also known by the shortened name '''Raphael Raven''') is the leader of the [[Raven]]s and first appears as the boss of the [[World 5 (Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island)|fifth world]] in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''. Initially, he is an ordinary Raven, but is magically enlarged by [[Kamek]] to fight the [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshis]]. Even after his defeat, he remains huge. In ''[[Tetris Attack]]'' and ''[[Paper Mario]]'', he appears as an ally.

When [[Blue Yoshi]] first meets Raphael, he is an ordinary Raven. However, [[Kamek]] appears and magically enhances him, increasing his size and strength. Then, Raphael slams into Blue Yoshi, sending it and [[Baby Mario]] flying to a small [[Moon|moon]]. Additionally, the force of the attack makes the Yoshi lose all its [[Yoshi|eggs]]. Raphael then launches himself to the moon and prepares for battle.
Raphael the Raven is the boss of [[World 5 (Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island)|World 5]] in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and its [[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3|remake]]. When [[Yoshi (species)|Blue Yoshi]] arrives, [[Kamek]] taunts him.<ref>{{cite|author=[[Kamek]]|quote=You can, ah, will, aaah, never enter the Koopa Kingdom!

Raphael the Raven and [[Naval Piranha]] are the only world bosses that use the extended variation of the boss theme, the former which was used in all other bosses in ''Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3''.
 
[[File:RaphaelStar.png|frame]]
Raphael's sprite has a star on his belly. However, since the star is always the same palette as his skin, it is never seen in-game.<ref>{{cite|url=tcrf.net/Super_Mario_World_2:_Yoshi%27s_Island/Unused_Object_Graphics|title=''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' - Unused Object Graphics|publisher=The Cutting Room Floor|language=en}}</ref>
 
====''Yoshi's Island DS''====
Raphael the Raven is not a boss in ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', but he does cameo in the intro with the other bosses from ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island''.<ref>{{cite|language=de|url=youtu.be/vq5T8ooh_bo?feature=shared&t=2|timestamp=0:02|title=''Yoshi's Island DS'' - Intro|author=NintendoGamerGuide|date=March 5, 2023|publisher=YouTube}}</ref>
 
====''Yoshi's New Island''====
[[File:YNI Giant Raven.png|thumb|Raphael the Raven in ''Yoshi's New Island''.]]
A large Raven, sharing a similar size to Raphael the Raven and perhaps inspired by him,<ref>''Yoshi's New Island'' internal filenames (<tt>kyutyan_a_big.csv</tt>, <tt>kyutyan_b_big.csv</tt>, <tt>kyutyan_c_big.csv</tt>, <tt>kyutyan_s_big.csv</tt>)</ref> appears in ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'', though as a standard enemy. It behaves a lot like the other Ravens, but despite being much larger, it can be defeated in the same way. The large Raven is found in [[Eggstraordinary Terrain]] in the area above the beanstalk.  


The [[Kamek]] mini-boss battle in [[World 2 (Yoshi's New Island)|World 2]] is similar to Raphael's because Yoshi has to pound stumps in order to damage Kamek.
Raphael fights by chasing and ramming into Blue Yoshi around the moon to send [[Baby Mario]] flying. He also attacks by jumping into the air and slamming the ground, creating shockwaves that circle the moon. The moon's interior is quartered by two stakes extending its diameter, the ends of which jut out from two points on the surface. Yoshi must [[Ground Pound]] one of these while Raphael is on the opposite end to damage him. With each hit, Raphael becomes redder, angrier, and faster. After three successful hits, Blue Yoshi defeats Raphael, and Raphael becomes a constellation in the sky.


===''Tetris Attack''===
====''Yoshi's Island DS====
Raphael The Raven returns in ''[[Tetris Attack]]'', allied with the [[Shy Guy|Shy-Guy]]s. He is in the eighth level and the last character to be saved from [[Bowser]]'s and Kamek's brainwashing. Raphael The Raven is playable in certain modes, where he replaces the moon fairy Seren from ''{{iw|nwiki|Panel de Pon}}''.
Although Raphael the Raven did not appear as a boss in ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', he still makes a cameo. In the intro, one part shows a group of bosses from ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'', including Raphael.


===''Paper Mario''===
===''Tetris Attack===
[[File:Pm chap5 raphaelultra.png|thumb|Raphael and his Ravens in ''Paper Mario'']]
Raphael the Raven returns in the game ''[[Tetris Attack]]'', allied with the [[Shy Guys]]. In this game, Raphael is not considered an enemy. He is also a playable character, replacing the moon fairy Seren from the original Japanese version. He is in the eighth level and is the last character to be saved from [[Bowser]]'s and Kamek's brainwashing.
[[File:PMRaphael.png|frame|left]]
Raphael the Raven reappears in ''[[Paper Mario]]''. In this game, Raphael is the leader of a tribe of Ravens that live in peace with the [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]s of [[Lavalava Island]]. He lives in a nest in a tree in [[Jade Jungle]] and has become a legend to the Yoshis (as no one except the [[Village Leader]] can remember actually seeing him). He has the ability to communicate with both [[Mario]] and his Ravens and is depicted with a military disposition, commonly ending sentences with "over." Raphael helps Mario by ordering his Ravens to build a pulley contraption to take Mario and his allies to [[Mt. Lavalava]], site of the [[Misstar|fifth]] [[Star Spirits|Star Spirit]] and the [[Lava Piranha]]. He also gives Mario the [[Ultra Stone]], an item that allows Mario's party members to become even more powerful.


Later in the game, he writes a [[List of letters in Paper Mario#Raphael the Raven|letter]] to [[Sushie]] which the player can read at the [[Toad Town Post Office]]. In the letter, he asks whether he can provide help for Sushie, such as helping her climb the tree or cooking things she wants to eat. This letter will only be available during Chapter 8 if Mario wishes to go back to [[Toad Town]] from [[Bowser's Castle]].

Raphael the Raven reappears in ''[[Paper Mario]]''. In this game, Raphael is the leader of a tribe of reformed Ravens that live in peace with the [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshis]] of [[Lavalava Island]]. He lives in nest in a tree high above the island and has become a legend to the Yoshis (as no one except the [[Village Leader]] can remember actually seeing him). He has the ability to communicate with both [[Mario]] and his Ravens. Raphael helps Mario by ordering his Ravens to build a device to take Mario and his allies to [[Mt. Lavalava]], site of the [[Misstar|fifth]] [[Star Spirits|Star Spirit]] and the [[Lava Piranha]]. He also gives Mario the [[Ultra Stone]], an item that allows Mario's party members to become even more powerful.

Raphael the Raven makes a cameo in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' as a trophy, which makes a suggestion that it is organically larger.<ref>{{cite|quote=The biggest of their breed is called Raphael the Raven, and his enormous size renders most direct attacks useless.|title=''Super Smash Bros. Melee''|author=Trophy description|date=2001|publisher=Nintendo|language=en}}</ref> A [[Sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|Sticker]] of Raphael appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros.

Ultimate)|Spirit]] that makes the {{iw|smashwiki|fighter}} unaffected by any {{iw|smashwiki|trip}}ping effect like the earthquake hazard and the Banana peels.
Raphael the Raven makes a cameo in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' as a trophy. The information states that he is the biggest Raven, although it is Kamek who enlarged him. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', he appears as a [[sticker]].
