I'm not quite sure what the point is. They're both named the same character, and it's heavily suggested that they are the same character just making a return. The black version doesn't exhibit any particularly new strategies or abilities in the boss fight. And, if this were to pass, what of other recurring boss characters, like [[Knot-Wing the Koopa]] and the other ''Woolly World'' bosses, or even mid-bosses like [[Jr. Troopa]] and all?

:::::::Almost positive it's the same model with different textures. Granted, the Piranhas ''might'' do the same thing, as the petals are potentially just a texture themselves. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 13:39, June 13, 2019 (EDT)

::::::::I don't know about the game, but I looked on the noclip website and the King Kalientes are the same model (with same color) and the Dino Piranhas are the same thing in both games. However, this is not true for the two Gobbleguts. I use noclip since I am not the actual games since, even though I have them, I know nothing about looking into them. {{User:Yoshi the Space Station Manager/sig}} 21:00, June 13, 2019 (EDT)
Well since the second time is titled "King Kaliente's Spicy RETURN", it seems very likely that it is the same character [[User:Mario Sakuraba|Mario Sakuraba]] ([[User talk:Mario Sakuraba|talk]]) 20:08, June 13, 2019 (EDT)
:Exactly. {{User:Obsessive Mario Fan/sig}} 20:36, June 13, 2019 (EDT)
::What are the name of the models? Also, the scorched one has a separate entry in the encyclopedia. --{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}} 07:33, June 14, 2019 (EDT)
:::In Hisstocrat Returns, there is a different Hisstocrat. Despite the name, it is a separate entity, and it is confirmed on [[Boss Blitz]] that Hisstocrat and the queen Hisstocrat are different. What about Shadow Mario being split from Bowser Jr.? Same scenario, no? --{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}} 06:42, June 15, 2019 (EDT)
::::I'd ask to LinkTheLefty later about the internal filename. --{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}} 14:51, June 15, 2019 (EDT)
All right, I think I finally know enough to weigh in on this discussion: I'd say both Kalientes are one and the same. The color differences appear to be aesthetic, and it's really the '''battlefield''' that changes. On the other hand, since the Gobbleguts have slightly differing attack patterns and have a nearly identical battlefield, it's hard to say whether they should be separate or not. {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 15:21, June 15, 2019 (EDT)
:There's also the matter of the mission name referring to King Kaliente making a 2nd appearance. In response to the "Hisstocrat Returns" situation, well, the Japanese naming makes a distinction (Hisstocrat vs. Hisstocrat (pink)) whereas the Japanese mission names use "Otaking" regardless.
