His one support move, Geno Boost, bolsters attack (and defense if timed properly) stats even further. Geno is a very potent offensive character overall, having the highest speed of any party member (30), comparable attack stats to Bowser, and high magic attack stats and potent special moves primarily revolving around single and multiple enemy attacks. He even worries over the 'ownership' of his physical form, and promises to return the body to the home from whence it came. He has a strong sense of duty and responsibility, and his role on Star Road may be analogous to Mario's role in the Mushroom Kingdom. The skill works only on regular enemies, as well as Yaridovich clones, Machine Made, and Exor.Īlthough powerful, Geno is quite amiable, quick to make friends with Mario and Mallow. If timed just right, it deals 9,999 points of damage if not timed right, it does average damage at best.

However, when Geno tries to fight Bowyer, upon striking Bowyer says, 'Strong you are, but stronger am I!' One of Geno's magic powers is also potentially the most powerful attack in game, Geno Whirl. Geno comes off as very powerful from his first appearance as a doll when Gaz attacks using Geno and accidentally hits Mario and knocks him out. He also tends to show more enthusiasm than any other party member. His eagerness to confront the villain may be due to his status as an authority figure from Star Road. Geno has more of a defiant, heroic attitude. Geno's personality is strongly based on his confidence and attitude. Additionally, Geno is the fastest of Mario's allies. His special attacks typically involve powerful energy blasts. His regular attack involves shooting physical projectiles from his arms. Geno has a variety of attacks which use a mix of physical and energy projectiles. Thus Bowser decides to continue the fight. However, Geno points out that until Smithy and his factory are destroyed, Bowser's Keep is still at risk. For instance, after Mario and his allies liberate Bowser's Keep, Bowser decides to quit the team and return to the castle. Consequently, Geno offers the heroes advice about matters the others may not understand. Geno acts as a sage-like figure to Mario and his allies. The lifeless Geno doll can be seen sitting behind Mario and company on Vista Hill while they witness Exor disintegrate. Repairing the celestial road, the power of wishes return to the world. With Smithy destroyed, Geno decides to leave the doll's wooden body, returning to the form of a star and bringing the Star Pieces to Star Road. After explaining everything, Geno decides to join forces with Mario and Mallow to find the remaining Star Pieces.Įventually, Mario, Mallow, Geno, Bowser, and Toadstool collect the remaining Star Pieces and defeat Smithy. However, this is impossible to pronounce, so the star warrior assumes the name of the doll: Geno. Additionally, he states that wishes can never come true again until all the Star Pieces are recovered.

Geno explaining the situation to Mario and Mallow.Īfter defeating Bowyer, Geno reveals to the heroes that he is a warrior from Star Road and that he has assumed the form of the Geno doll to fight the Smithy Gang. Mario and Mallow decide to help Geno, and together, the three defeat Bowyer and acquire the Star Piece. Geno enters the forest to challenge Bowyer, and retrieve the Star Piece that Bowyer's minions had found. His mom does not believe this, while Mario goes and enters the woods to find the animated doll.

The next morning, Gaz tells his mom that he saw the living Geno walk into the Forest Maze. Later, Geno admits he chose that particular doll because it appeared to be the strongest of the four. Now possessing the doll, the star has problems with walking, and slams into the wall before leaving the inn. Seeing the four dolls on the floor, the star decides to inhabit the Geno doll. That night, a single star being enters the Inn. Instead of hitting the Bowser doll, the blast accidentally hits Mario, knocking him out. Gaz ends up playing too rough however, and activates Geno's 'Super Star Shot'. Mario pretends to be Bowser, and Gaz pretends to be his favorite of the dolls, Geno. Gaz's mom asks Mario to play with her son, which he agrees to. The pair enters the Town Inn, and while inside, Mario sees a young boy named Gaz playing with his dolls of Mario, Toadstool, and Bowser. Many people in Rose Town fear leaving their homes out of potentially being paralyzed by one of Bowyer's arrows.ĭuring this time of crisis, Mario and Mallow arrive in Rose Town. Bowyer is launching arrows into the town and paralyzing people. Some time later, Rose Town is besieged by the Smithy Gang.
