Mario & Luigi: Dream Team
Ranks work slightly differently than the way they did in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. Instead of set rewards, such as extra gear slots and shopping privileges, the player is given limited choices of what one Rank-Up Bonus they wish to give to Mario and Luigi respectively upon reaching a new rank per rank; this excludes Rainbow Rank, where the player gets two Rank-up Bonuses, giving the player the limit of five slots for bonuses per character if the player reaches Level 40.
- Shroom Rank (default)
- Shell Rank (Level 8)
- Flower Rank (Level 16)
- Star Rank (Level 26)
- Rainbow Rank (Level 40)
The Rank-Up Bonuses are the following:
