Line 74:
* [[Living Toy]]: He is a spirit guardian who creates a body for himself out of a wooden toy doll.
* [[Mr. Exposition]]: Given his position as the only one who understands what the Star Road is all about, it's slightly inevitable.
* [[Our Angels Are Different]]: Assuming the Star Road can be called "heaven", probably.
* [[Rocket Punch]]: His unarmed attack and Double Punch.
* [[Shapeshifting]]: Morphs into a cannon for his ultimate attack, Geno Flash.
Line 101 ⟶ 102:
** In the same scene he asks Toadstool for a kiss when she promises one to Mario for rescuing her.
* [[Lesser of Two Evils]]: The reason why he is working with Mario.
* [[Living Weapon]]: The first weapon he picks up is a live Chain Chomp that he uses like an [[Epic Flail]]
* [[Mighty Glacier]]: As expected from someone like Bowser, he's big, tough, and strong, but not very fast.
* [[Pet the Dog]]: When he frees a Chain Chomp in Booster's Tower that Booster had locked up because she bit him. Gets more moments as he meets back some of his former troops across the game.
* [[Slave to PR]]: Though he's been ousted from power, he still goes through great lengths to put on an air of power and intimidation. Several points in the game we see his inner musings on how to go about helping Mario and/or asking Mario for help while still saving face as a villain.
Line 121 ⟶ 124:
* [[The Chick]]
* [[Combat Medic]] / [[White Magician Girl]]: She starts out with okay weapons, but her healing is invaluable. Once her stronger weapons and spells appear, she's one of the best characters.
* [[Cowardly Lion]]: Peach spends half the game sobbing and pleading for rescue, and it isn't until she ''is'' rescued that she decides to get a backbone and be useful. She still shows this Trope in the final level, recoiling in horror when the Director tells her just what Smithy does to "dissenters".
* [[Damsel in Distress]]: For the first third of the game or so. Somewhat remarkable this time as she is nabbed by ''two'' villains, Bowser and Booster.
* [[Frying Pan of Doom]]: Her [[Infinity+1 Sword]]
* [[Improbable Weapon User]]: Her arsenal includes parasols, fans, gloves, and her frying pan.
Line 181 ⟶ 185:
'''Snifit 3:''' So we're catching beetles for him. }}
* [[Big Eater]]: he eats an [[Giant Space Flea From Nowhere|entire cake]] in a single bite!
* [[Boss Arena Idiocy]]: If you ace the [[Mini Game]] right before the boss battle with him, you not only avoid the battle, you gain Booster's Charm, which will be ''incredibly'' helpful against Knife Guy and Grate Guy, who you have to fight regardless.
* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: He lives in a giant tower full of toys, rides around on an electric train set, believes that Toadstool's tears are signs she's "sprung a leak", and he has to have his Snifits explain to him what a party is (and judging from their description, they're not entirely sure themselves).
{{quote|"''My bride-to-be is chanting 'MARIOHELPMEMARIOHELPME'. Is she showing her happiness?''"
Line 193 ⟶ 198:
* [[Quirky Miniboss Squad]]: His Snifits
** [[Terrible Trio]]
* [[Skippable Boss]]: He's not exactly a tough boss, but if you ace the [[Mini Game]] immediately before, you do not have to fight him.
* [[Unholy Matrimony]]: Done VERY comedically at the end of the game. {{spoiler|With Valentina, of all people!}}
{{break}}

Line 218 ⟶ 225:
* [[An Ice Person]]: A majority of her attacks, including Blizzard, Solidify and Diamond Saw.
* [[Battle Butler]]: Dodo's duties seem to consist of doing Valentina's bidding and kicking your ass in-between shifts.
* [[Dual Boss]]: With Dodo.
* [[Duel Boss]]: But before that, Dodo whisks away your center party member for a little one-on-one.
Line 274 ⟶ 281:
* [[Loophole Abuse]]: How the heroes defeat him in the updated version. In this version, Bowyer’s Interface Screw also disables Toad’s Assist, an Action Gauge move, and the only such Gauge move you will have at that point. When on the verge of defeat, he blatantly cheat and disable all three of the buttons on the player’s controller, leaving the party powerless... But then Geno pulls out a ''second'' Action Gauge ability, the Star Riders Triple Move. (Bowyer had disabled a skill that ''uses'' the Action Gauge, not the Gauge itself.) They easily take him down.
* [[Meaningful Name]]: "Bowyer" is the term for a person who makes, maintains and repairs bows and arrows.
* [[Medium Awareness]]: He seems to know he is a character in a video game, given his odd way of using an [[Interface Screw]] to limit the actions of the ''player'' rather than the heroes.
* [[Puzzle Boss]]: A subtle variation, he locks whatever button command the player uses most, so the trick is to confuse him and mix up your attack patterns.
* [[Red Eyes, Take Warning]]
