'''Zombone''' is the skeletal counterpart and second form of the [[Czar Dragon]] in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and its [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|remake]]. When Czar Dragon is damaged enough, it falls in the lava, loses its skin, and becomes its other form, Zombone. Zombone has plenty of dangerous attacks, such as sending out boulders to attack [[Mario]], [[Mallow]], [[Geno]], [[Bowser]], and [[Princess Peach|Peach]], or headbutting them. After the gang defeats Zombone, Zombone explodes and collapses into the lava, never to be seen again.
'''Zombone''' is the skeletal counterpart and second form of the [[Czar Dragon]]. After the former's defeat at the hands of Mario and his party, he falls and becomes submerged in the lava underneath him, which brings about the form of Zombone.


While Zombone has stronger attacks than the Czar Dragon, he has less defense. He is also vulnerable to thunder attacks. He no longer has the power to use fire attacks or summon [[Helio]]s either.
While Zombone has stronger attacks than the Czar Dragon, it has less defense and a weakness to Jump and Thunder, so regular attacks, as well Mario's Super Jump or Mallow's Shocker can do decent damage. It also loses the power to use fire attacks or summon [[Helio (Super Mario RPG)|Helio]]s. Being an undead enemy, Zombone is also vulnerable to the [[Pure Water]] item. However, Pure Water only causes a fixed damage of 130 points to Zombone instead of defeating the enemy entirely, like other non-boss undead.
