It has been requested that this article be rewritten and expanded to include more information. Reason: More details about when this specific section of the Challenge Node can be accessed, as well as requirements like whether or not the bosses must first be encountered in the story
The Gauntlet is an area in the Challenge Node that appears in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and its remake, Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey.
Description
The Gauntlet allows Mario and Luigi to face harder versions of six bosses they have battled previously; the Emoglobin near the entrance. explains that they mined the Bros.' memories to create these stronger bosses. All of the boss rematches are denoted with the letter "X" (e.g. Durmite X for Durmite), and thy use faster and more powerful variants of attacks from their base movesets. In Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey, Giant Bowser's bosses can be refought here as well; they are also faster and more powerful, and no mushrooms appear during the battles.
There are seven classes of battle, with each representing one of seven bosses that Mario and Luigi have fought over the course of the game. Each class costs a certain amount of coins to fight, with the prices steadily raising as more classes are unlocked. The Emoglobin also gives a recommended level for Mario and Luigi to reach before trying a given class.
After selecting a class, the Emoglobin menu offers an opportunity for Mario and Luigi to review the battle's rules and switch their badges, even if the Bros. should enter this area before receiving them from Princess Lipid. Upon starting the class, the Emoglobin either creates or transforms into the boss in question, and the battle begins. The fight must be cleared in a certain amount of turns; if the turn counter expires or both Mario and Luigi are KOed, they lose and are forced to try again.
The seventh class is only unlocked when the other six are cleared, featuring a boss rush of all six previous classes and culminating with Bowser X as the seventh and final battle in the set.
A similar area called the Battle Ring appears in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team and Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam.
