Wendy O. Koopa is a boss in Paper Mario: Color Splash. She is the fourth Koopaling to be encountered by Mario and overall the seventh boss of the game.
History[]
She is part of the Koopa Troop, and notably one of the seven Koopalings. She guards the Purple Big Paint Star found in the Purple Region. Mario encounters her deep in the caves of Fortune Island. She will poetically greet Mario, then initiate a battle with him. Once defeated, Mario is able to retrieve the Purple Big Paint Star.
Battle[]
During battle, Wendy can summon a chest or clam, which will open up and spew either enemies or coins. Wendy will then attack Mario with said objects. After several regular attacks, Wendy will summon a ring to immobilize Mario. The Instant Camera must be used right before the attack so that the ring will instead immobilize a snapshot of Mario. If Mario does not use the Instant Camera and becomes trapped in the ring, he will instantly die. If the snapshot is trapped, Wendy will shatter the ring into coins and the attack will fail. After the attack, the fight will progress as usual.
Trivia[]
- During her battle with Mario, Wendy taps her feet to the beat of the music. This is possibly a homage to the Gooper Blooper boss fight from the previous game, where the boss would tap his tentacles in time with a beat.
- Coincidentally, both bosses are also fought in an ocean themed area.
