Editing Star Cure

[[File:Star Vaccine.png|frame|The three pieces of the Star Cure]]
The three '''Star Cures''' are the ultimate goal for much of the second half of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]''. [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] first learn about the Star Cures from [[Dr. Toadley]], shortly after a fight with [[Bowser]]. Each of the cures are held by a [[Star Sages|Star Sage]]; the Bros. have to convince each of them in order to retrieve all three of the pieces.

Dr. Toadley tells the Bros. that the first vaccine is held by [[Durmite]], who is usually located in [[Dimble Wood]]. However, the Mario Bros. had already found and beaten Durmite in [[Bowser's body]]. They discover that Durmite is still inside his body, and begin to pursue her. After a battle, Durmite, whose real name turns out to be [[Wisdurm]], relinquishes the first Star Cure on friendly terms after a battle.

The second Star Cure, as it turns out, had come into Bowser's possession before the events of the game, although the sage said it was originally under the possession of [[Kuzzle]]. He travels to his [[Treasure Chamber]] below his own castle to retrieve it but is forced to do battle with the [[Fawful Express]] for the Star Cure. Mario and Luigi then need to reconstruct Bowser's damaged memory of the combination to the Star Cure's safe. When Bowser opens the safe, however, [[Private Goomp]], [[Sergeant Guy]], and [[Corporal Paraplonk]] shove him inside. Frustrated, Bowser swallows the Star Cure, which ends up in his [[Gut Check (location)|gut]]. [[Starlow]] notices this and suggests that the Mario Bros. escape with it through a [[Warp Pipe|warp pipe]].

The final Star Cure is held by [[Chakron]], of [[Plack Beach]]. He gives it to Mario and Luigi after they successfully knock him out of his "1000 year pose" using the ground-shaking [[Snack Basket]].

When all three Star Cures are brought back to Dr. Toadley, he combines them into the [[Miracle Cure]], which cures every [[Toad (species)|Toad]] that has contracted the [[blorbs]]. It also breaks the barriers outside [[Peach's Castle]], allowing the Mario brothers to enter both the castle and the final stretch of the game.

The colors of the Star Cures correspond to the characters who obtained it: red for Mario, green for Luigi (Mario held it, though Luigi was technically the one who knocked down Chakron), and yellow for Bowser.
