Boss category?[edit]

I thought the Darkle was the anti-Sparkle, the essence of Grape and his minions, that dark blob energy they bosses are made of, not the category. Like, take a look at the Spanish version, Darkle is used for the Sparkla levels, implying they are created with the Darkle energy. --My avatar's face to use in the signature Mariuigi Khed 05:03, April 29, 2024 (EDT)

I based it primarily on the titles of the levels the bosses appear in, e.g. Darkle Boss: Light Fang, whose "Darkle" term was not used for any of the basement bosses that I'm currently aware of. "Darkle" was also used as links to uncreated pages on the four Darkle Boss' wiki pages, so I took a qualified guess that the term meant those four. (Sidenote: I do like pretty much how you fixed the table width.) DandelionSprout (talk) 10:57, April 29, 2024 (EDT)
My interpretation is also that Darkle is the energy, not the subspecies. I believe Disco Wing even says in his pre-fight cutscene something about beating Peach with the "power of Darkle", but I would need to rewatch that sequence to be certain of the exact phrasing. 73.171.104.211 11:29, April 29, 2024 (EDT)
Disco-Wing's quote: “We rewrite stories with Madame Grape. So if you're here to stop us... Then I punish you with Madame Grape's power of Darkle!”. "Darkle" does in fact refer to Grape's power. Jdtendo(T|C) 11:53, April 29, 2024 (EDT)
