Elite Dry Bones is an enemy in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, and is the stronger counterpart to the basic Dry Bones. In the original English version of the game, it was simply called Dry Bones; it was named differently in other languages, such as Garon in Japanese, which was also the name used by Prima Games.[1] It wasn't until the remake, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions, that they were given their own name in English to distinguish them from the weaker counterpart.
These Dry Bones can be battled in Teehee Valley; they are an upgraded version of the common Dry Bones found along Hoohoo Mountain and, unlike their weaker cousins, have purple shells and a purple tint all over their body. This stronger variation has the same attack pattern as the weaker, but its attacks are more damaging and will possibly poison the brothers if their hit; its shell also reduces damage from any attack that's not a jump to one. Furthermore, they can use the Troopea's tackle attack, which can be used to deflect its shell back at other enemies in the same way.
