Template:Character-infobox Queen Bean is the ruler of the Beanbean Kingdom during the events of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. She is a wise ruler and is able to keep control of her kingdom in the most dire of circumstances, including Bowletta's massive military strike against the peaceful kingdom. She is also Prince Peasley's mother. Template:MLinfobox During Cackletta's attempted takeover of the Beanbean Kingdom, the Bean witch force-fed Queen Bean a Belly Blech Worm. The worm caused Queen Bean to grow huge muscles but limited her brain functions to thoughts of destruction. When Mario and Luigi arrive in the throne room, the Queen goes on a rampage, attacking the pair.
During the battle with the monarch, attacking her directly is an excercise in futility, as the queen's pointy crown blocks jumps and Hammers will only inflict 1 point of damage. They do however, knock the queen back a few inches, which proves to be a battle device. Queen Bean's weak point are her arms, which after jumped upon a few times, will deflate. The monarch's primary attack is to fire shockwaves at the pair which must be jumped over. The attack is less powerful but faster when Queen Bean has lost an arm. Every turn, the monarch will move closer, changing the timing for her shockwaves. If she gets too close, she will attack the brothers with her fists. This prevents a chance to damage the arms but is difficult to block. Therefore, one brother should hold back the queen with hammer strikes while the other attacks her arms. Once both her arms are gone, Queen bean assumes her next phase.
After her arms are destroyed, Queen Bean's crown falls off and she backs away, no longer advancing. At this point jumps can be used to damage her signifigantly, though hammers still prove fruitless. Queen Bean's only attack at this phase is to spit enourmous beans at the brothers. If jumped upon, the bean becomes a Beanie whom assist the queen and provide a distraction for the brothers. There can be a maximum of three Beanies on the field. After a few turns, Queen Bean's arms regrow and she begins with a triumphant shockwave attack, destroying all onstage Beanies. The brothers must continue the cycle of attacking her arms until the Queen falls.
After the battle, Lady Lima enters the room and informs the brothers that the only way to heal the queen is to acquire the legendary Chuckola Reserve. The Bros. then head to Chucklehuck Woods to find the brew.
After acquiring the Reserve from the semi-insane Bubbles and his monstrous creation, the Chuckolator, the brothers return, Mario filled with the soda after accidentally drinking it. Mario then spits it into the queen's mouth and she assumes her true self, a fat, happy, intelligent ruler. Queen Bean remains in the throne room together with Lady Lima, and later Toadsworth, for the rest of the game. The trio advise the brothers, telling them what to do next, and giving advice. Queen Bean refers to the battle with Cackletta as a game of cards, making multiple anecdotes about the game.
Queen Bean has special Beanbean Advisors that serve the same role as Princess Peach's Mushroom Retainers.
