Page 130.</ref>) is a gargantuan clown-like puppet monster that serves as the final boss of ''Super Paper Mario''. It was created through a fusion of Mr. L (after [[Luigi]] was brainwashed again), Dimentio, and the [[Chaos Heart]]. According to [[the InterNed]], the battle theme of Super Dimentio is called "The Ultimate Show," and is composed of [[Dimentio]], [[Mr. L]] and the [[Chaos Heart]]'s themes remixed together, though a majority of the theme's motifs are from Dimentio's theme. | ||

Other abilities are based on Luigi's, including his signature super jump. He also possesses an ability similar to the [[Pal Pill]] item, in that, should he be provoked by guarding techniques, Super Dimentio will create several grunts in the form of 8-bit Luigis. They run and jump in the direction the player was when they were summoned, although they are incredibly weak enemies that die if they hit anything, including the walls surrounding the arena. | ||
The platforms around the arena gain | The platforms around the arena gain a demonic grin reminiscent of Dimentio and move horizontally, in order to make jumping on Super Dimentio's head more difficult (though this can be used advantageously). Each platform can help Super Dimentio by shooting a flashing square projectile and, when signaled by Super Dimentio, a select few will fire at Mario one after the other (the projectile will be identified by a crosshair that appears where Mario was at the time). Flipping to 3D makes avoiding them easier and also makes the ones fired prior to flipping completely harmless. | ||

*Before Dimentio combines himself with Super Dimentio, the puppet is controlled by the brainwashed, zombie-like Luigi and speaks in simple sentences (more specifically, "GREEEEEEEEEN!" immediately after the construct was created). Afterwards, it appears to have Dimentio's consciousness and speaks like him, including after Luigi is ejected from its mouth when the battle is won. However, even when Dimentio is inside, it has some Mr. L-esque phrases, most notably "L-POWER!" | *Before Dimentio combines himself with Super Dimentio, the puppet is controlled by the brainwashed, zombie-like Luigi and speaks in simple sentences (more specifically, "GREEEEEEEEEN!" immediately after the construct was created).
