The Great Conductor remains hidden in [[Conductor Island]] to avoid being targeted by [[Zokket]].

Great Conductor
First appearance Mario & Luigi: Brothership (2024)

The Great Conductor is the guardian of Concordia in Mario & Luigi: Brothership, as well as Snoutlet's mentor. He is a giant pig-like creature with a yellow face on his head holding his eyes (resembling an outlet), stubby limbs, and a green extension cable around him. When Concordia breaks apart, the Great Conductor calls upon Mario and Luigi to help bring it back together, and opens a portal in the Mushroom Kingdom that brings them to Concordia, inadvertently also bringing in Princess Peach, Bowser and their respective subjects. The Great Conductor remains hidden in Conductor Island to avoid being targeted by Zokket.

While Mario and Luigi escape Fortress Zokket after defeating Glohm Bowser, the Great Conductor speaks to them telepathically and encourages them to jump off a high ledge into the sea. Mario and Luigi wash up on Conductor Island where Snoutlet leads them to the Great Conductor's location. The Great Conductor reveals that Zokket is Cozette, Connie's mentor, and that he bestowed Luigi with the Luigi Logic ability. The Great Conductor decides to test the Bros.' bonds in a battle.

During the battle, all Battle Plugs are banned. The Great Conductor traps one of the Bros. in a giant cup and creates several duplicates also under cups. While the cups are lifted, the captured Bro. and the fakes perform a battle animation such as jumping or thinking of an action to use. The player must memorize which one matches the exact animation they normally use and break the correct cup; breaking a wrong cup damages the non-captured Bro. Once this is done several times, the Bros. must get an Excellent rating on several different Bros. Attacks; any lower rating or using the same Bros. Attack more than once heals the Great Conductor. If the Bros. fail too many times, the Great Conductor instantly defeats both Bros with a thunderbolt.

The Great Conductor has four techniques that he can perform. For his first technique, the Great Conductor captures a Bro. This cannot be avoided by the target, but only one Bro. can be captured. The Great Conductor's next two attacks happen only with a Bro. captured. One attack is to have the cups charge, which the victim must jump over, followed by the Great Conductor himself. The other has the Great Conductor perform a slam attack, with the target having to repel him with a hammer strike. The last attack is the aforementioned thunderbolt attack, which cannot be avoided except by scoring an Excellent! rating on several different Bros. Attacks.

Once the Great Conductor is satisfied, he allows Mario and Luigi to connect the island's lighthouse to Shipshape Island. Later on, while Mario and Luigi are gathering different people's bonds to reach the Soli-Tree and are one short, they visit the Great Conductor for advice on the last one. He advises them that even their foes have bonds with each other, hinting the Extension Corps.

After Mario and Luigi defeat Reclusa and restore Concordia, the Great Conductor uses the last of his power to send everyone back to the Mushroom Kingdom.

The Great Conductor is also used for the Conductor Connector Special Attack given to Mario during the endgame, where his extension cord belt has to be connected to satellites by Luigi. Upon connecting with the satellites, the Great Conductor will charge up a powerful laser laser fired from his rear toward the targeted enemy. The player has to help him fire at the right time by pressing X when the crosshairs.
