Updates
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Version 1.0- August 29, 2002- I've always wanted to publish a Walkthrough 
for a Super Mario game, and this is the one.  Today I completed Sections 0, 
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, and 13. =)

Version 2.0- August 30, 2002- I started the Walkthrough (Section 11).  I 
finished Delfino Airstrip and am currently up to Episode 3 in Bianco Hills, 
next update, extremely soon!

Version 3.0- August 31, 2002- I'm starting to get worried.  I think that 
CJayC isn't going to publish this FAQ of mine...it's my dream to publish a 
Mario game FAQ...  I updated the looks and stuff...  =*(

Version 4.0- September 6, 2002- I didn't update because I thought it was too 
late to post the FAQ.  Apparently, CJayC responded to my e-mail and told me 
it would be posted as long as I was farther along in the game so that's why 
I updated like crazy today. =)

Version 5.0- September 6, 2002- Completely finished off Bianco Hills and 
added a "Boss Walkthrough" section, "Shine Sprite Locations Walkthrough" 
section, and a "Blue Coin Locations Walkthrough" section.  Enjoy.

  [3-C]  Mario's Mission

[3-A]
What, you ask, is Isle Delfino?
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
It's the sun-drenched island resort on everyone's must-visit list, of 
course!  This is where all your troubles begin.  Mario, Peach, and 
Toadsworth are on their way to beautiful Isle Delfino for a vacation, but 
Shadow Mario is causing chaos and destruction apon Isle Delfino.  You arrive 
and are blamed as soon as you get off the plane.  Now you must clean up the 
mess that you never caused on Isle Delfino.


[3-B]
What can Mario do on the island?
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Mario's latest adventure is filled with action galore! Mario runs, swims, 
slides, and wall-jumps to the highest heights.  With FLUDD strapped on to 
his back, Mario drenches enemies, solves puzzles, and even takes to the 
skies! Oh, and Yoshi's back, too, so saddle up!  Your in for the biggest 
Mario adventure yet!


[3-C]
Mario's Mission
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
It's up to Mario to clean up the mess on Isle Delfino, solve puzzles, and 
defeat enemies in order to gather the scattered Shine Sprites.  Plus, he's 
got to reveal who's behind the "M" mystery!

Mario's Vacation Gone Wrong
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Close your eyes and imagine...sooting sunshine accompanied by the sound of 
waves gently breaking on the shore.  High above, seagulls turn lazy circles 
in a clear blue sky.  This is Isle Delfino.

Far from the hustle and bustle of the Mushroom Kingdom, this island resort 
glitters like a gem in the waters of the southern sea.

Mario, Peach, and an entourage of Toads have came to Isle Delfino to relax 
and unwind.  At least, that's their plan...but when they arrive, they find 
things have gone horribly wrong...

According to the island inhabitants, the person responsible for the mess has 
a round nose, a thick mustache, and a cap...

What? But...that sounds like Mario!?

The islanders are saying that Mario's mess has polluted the island and 
caused their energy source the Shine Sprites, to vanish.

Now the falsely accused Mario has promised to clean up the island, 
but...how?

Never fear! FLUDD, the latest invention from Gadd Science, Inc., can help 
Mario tidy up the island, take on baddies, and lend a nozzle in all kinds of 
sticky situations.

Can Mario clean the island, capture the villain, and clear his good name? 
It's time for another Mario adventure to get started!

Isle Items
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Throughout your journey you will run into different items.

*~~Shine Sprites~~*
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
These fellows embody the power of the sun and provide the energy that 
sustains Isle Delfino.  Mario can move to new levels by collecting Shine 
Sprites.  Try and collect ALL 120 Shine Sprites for the Ultimate Challenge!

*~~Coins~~*
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Coins are scattered all over the island.  Collect them to restore health to 
Mario's life meter.  You can also collect 50 to obtain a 1-Up and when you 
collect 100 of these coins in any world you will obtain a Shine Sprite.  
After you obtain the Shine Sprite every additional 50 coins will award you 
with a 1-Up.

*~~Blue Coins~~*
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Pick up blue coins to regain two health points.  These are rare coins that 
may interest a certain shopkeeper.  That certain shopkeeper is located in 
the building that contains the "M" to Ricco Harbor.  For every 10 blue coins 
that you give him he will give you a Shine Sprite in exchange.

*~~Red Coins~~*
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
There are 8 red coins in certain episodes of each world, and each coin 
restores two health points.  Collect all 8 coins with one life to receive a 
Shine Sprite.  You can also check completed obstacle courses and try to 
obtain 8 red coins in each of them in a certain amount of time.  It really 
isn't even as easy as it sounds.

*~~Water Bottles~~*
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
These bottles fill up FLUDD's tank.  Small bottles fill the tank halfway and 
large bottles fill it all the way.  You can find these bottles in certain 
episodes by simply eliminating enemies in your path to your Shine Sprite.  
They really come in hand so grab one whenever you have the oppurtunity.

*~~1-Up Mushrooms~~*
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Get one of these green magical mushrooms to get back a life.  They'll also 
fill Mario's life meter and FLUDD's tank.  You can obtain these by 
completing certain tasks for people, finding them in hidden locations, or 
just obtaining 50 yellow coins.

FLUDD
¯¯¯¯¯
"FLUDD" stands for "Flashing Liquidizing Ultra Dousing Device".  This so 
called "FLUDD" is your key to success in Isle Delfino.  As soon as you 
arrive on Isle Delfino you will meet "FLUDD" and he will explain himself to 
you.  He will tell you about his techniques and how exactly to use him.  He 
gives you information on certain devices and such and he can even give you 
very helpful and useful information.  Once your arrested "FLUDD" explains 
the situation to you and how you must use him to help restore peace to Isle 
Delfino and how you and him must clean the graffiti to bring all the Shine 
Sprites back to Isle Delfino.

"FLUDD" doesn't actually run and batteries so you don't have to worry about 
over-using "FLUDD".  "FLUDD" only works when there's water aplenty.  Be sure 
to check the water level in "FLUDD"'s tank on the lower-right of the screen. 
  Fill it up before it has the chance to go empty.  You can also use water 
bottles to refill "FLUDD".

You must also keep note that "FLUDD" has specific nozzles and each has it's 
own specialty.  "FLUDD"'s nozzles are his Squirt Nozzle, Hover Nozzle, 
Rocket Nozzle, and Turbo Nozzle.  Each has it's own set of moves and each 
will help you in your adventure on Isle Delfino.  Some will even help you 
gain new worlds that you couldn't have access to before and some will help 
you reach out of distance Shine Sprites.  There is a catch to all of this 
though.  You must keep in mind that you can only have two nozzles at a time 
and one of these nozzles is always the Squirt nozzle.  Throughout the isle, 
you'll see several different colored nozzle boxes, each containing a 
different nozzle.  Only one box can be opened at the beginning of the game.

"FLUDD" is indeed the best device in this game and you should use this at 
any given time.  It will help you battle enemies, battle bosses and most 
importantly clean the goo but you must keep in mind that "FLUDD" doesn't 
have an infinite amount of water so make sure you always have water at a 
close distance.


The following nozzles and its attacks will be listed below.

Super Mario Sunshine Walkthrough

THE INTRODUCTION
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Turn on the GameCube with Super Mario Sunshine inside.  As the game loads, a 
FMV will begin.  You will see a big plane in the sunny sky.  Inside the 
plane are Mario, Princess Peach, & Toadsworth on and they are on their way 
to Isle Delfino.  The radar on the plane soon shows that they are arriving 
to Isle Delfino.  A commercial goes on talking about the beautiful Isle 
Delfino.  It talks about what it's famous for, the foods, et cetera.  Mario 
will obviously be amazed by the food but Princess Peach notices a dark 
shadowy figure in the background.  She ponders to herself and say's 
"Mario?!"?  The plane arrives and lands...

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
DELFINO AIRSTRIP
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

As soon as the plane lands, you will see a pinkish gooey substance.  Once 
you gain control, try and learn the controls.  You aren't timed so it's the 
perfect time to do so.  Once you got the hang of the controls, walk up to 
the toads and talk to them.  They all talk about the gooey substance and how 
they came all this way and their trip is ruined.  Once you talk to all of 
them walk to the right side of the goo.  You should have enough room to walk 
through.  When you reach an inhabitant, talk to her.  She says that YOUR goo 
covered her friend, and you better clean it up fast.  Continue forward, 
taking note of the giant "M" symbol.  Continue past the "M" until you reach 
three other inhabitants.  Talk to all of them.  One welcomes you to Isle 
Delfino, one complains about the mess, the other asks if you and him have 
met before.  After you talk to the three of them, practice your ground pound 
technique on the brown crates.  Once your done with that walk over to FLUDD. 
  Another FMV will begin, and your introduced to FLUDD.  FLUDD scans and 
classify's you and then introduces himself to you.  It then explains how it 
works, pay attention, it will come to excellent use.  You will be asked to 
hear its explanation again, select no.  Once you regain control, practice 
using your new mechanism.  Test FLUDD on those two "M"'s on the walls ahead 
of you.  Pick up the two coins you receive and refill your tank if you need 
too.  Now, head back to the gooey substance and from a distance begin to 
shoot water on the "M" symbol.  Then spray water into the center of the goo. 
  Once you put enough water into it a gooey piranha will come out.  This is 
your first boss, I guess.

=-=-=-=
BOSS 1
=-=-=-=
Name: Gooey Piranha # 1.

Location: Delfino Airstrip.

Description: A Piranha plant, covered in a damaging gooey substance.

Attacks: It has no attacks, if you don't hit it for a short amount of time 
it
         will simply go back into the ground.  Just keep at a distance from
         the goo.

Strategy: Go into Mario Cam View (As described in the controls section) and
          wait until the gooey piranha opens its mouth.  When the mouth is
          open, it is vulnerable to your attacks so spray it with FLUDD.
          If it takes to long to open, try squirting a bit of water on it so
          that it will open its mouth.  Continue this and after hitting it
          your third time it will die.  Congratulations, you defeated you
          very first Super Mario Sunshine boss.
=-=-=-
BOSS 1
=-=-=-

After that fairly easy boss battle watch the very short display of the Shine 
Sprite.  Walk up to the Shine Sprite and touch it.  A VERY short display of 
you taking the Shine Sprite will show.  You will then be given three 
options.  Save and Continue, Save and Quit, or Continue.  Choose the one 
your most comfortable with and then watch the proceeding FMV.  You will now 
find out what exactly happened and why you were arrested.  Your accused of 
the mess on Isle Delfino and are now sentenced to clean up the entire mess 
on Isle Delfino.  The FMV will continue in Mario's jail cell.  FLUDD will 
then explain that the pollution is NOT the only problem, and that you have 
to restore the Shine Sprites to bring happiness back to Isle Delfino.  After 
the FMV you will again be asked if you want to hear FLUDD's explanation, 
select no.  The guards will then tell you to begin cleaning up the mess on 
Isle Delfino.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
DELFINO PLAZA
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

This is the main area of Super Mario Sunshine.  When you collect a Shine 
anywhere in the game you will be taken back to Delfino Island.  Take note of 
the Delfino Emergency Broadcast System (D.E.B.S.).  It will contain valuable 
information that may help you later on in the game.  Once you gain control 
of Mario walk forward.  Talk to everyone and keep note of what they say.  
Continue on walking until you reach Princess Peach and Toadsworth.  She will 
be happy to see you and she'll ask why the sky is so dark, then she'll say 
that she wants to go home.  Once you talk to Peach and Toadsworth, walk 
toward the brown goo.  Begin to clean the goo and make your way towards the 
middle of the goo.  Once you put enough water into it another gooey piranha 
will come out.

=-=-=-
BOSS 2
=-=-=-
Name: Gooey Piranha # 2.

Location: Delfino Plaza.

Description: A Piranha plant, covered in a damaging gooey substance.

Attacks: Well, the gooey piranha itself has no attacks but the goo that
         surrounds the piranha releases some sort of colorful balloons that
         contain goo.  They explode when near so be careful.

Strategy: It's pretty much the same thing as Boss # 1 except for one minor
          change.  This time, little colorful bubbles come out of the goo 
and
          try to attack you.  They don't do much damage but when they 
explode
          the cover you in goo so try and take them out when they are near
          you.  Anyway, go into Mario Cam View and wait until the gooey
          piranha opens its mouth.  When the mouth is open, it is vulnerable
          to your attacks so spray it with FLUDD.  If it takes to long to
          open, try squirting a bit of water on it so that it will open its
          mouth.  Remember to keep those little colorful bubbles at a far
          distance from you.  Continue this and after hitting the piranha a
          third time it will die.
=-=-=-
BOSS 2
=-=-=-

After that easy boss battle, watch the upcoming FMV.  The Statue of Pianta 
will rise from the ground and on top of the statue's head is Shadow Mario!  
Shadow Mario will notice Princess Peach and then jump off the statue and 
snatch Princess Peach.  Your in for another boss battle.

=-=-=-
BOSS 3
=-=-=-
Name: Shadow Mario #1.

Location: Delfino Plaza.

Description: The shadowed figure that looks a lot like Mario.

Attacks: It leaves a trail of goo every once in a while.

Strategy: As you regain control after the short FMV, follow Shadow Mario.
          Make sure you use your Run & Squirt technique to avoid touching 
the
          goo he leaves behind.  When you are close the Shadow Mario, spray
          water on him by Running & Squirting.  Continue doing this until
          clumsy Shadow Mario trips and lets go of Princess Peach.  Walk up
          to Shadow Mario and he will complain and then get up and run 
again.
          Follow him and he will head back to the Statue of Pianta.  He will
          then paint a rainbow "M" on one side of the statue and then jump
          through the "M".  As soon as you regain control, shoot water into
          the "M" until a bright force of light begins to glow over it, now
          jump into the shiny "M".  Your third Boss battle is over.

Episode 1: Road to the Big Windmill
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

When you gain control, talk to the nearby inhabitants.  Once you do that, 
continue down the grayish path.  Grab the six coins on the way down and when 
you reach the water, hop on the rope.  Reaching the other side, talk to 
inhabitants around this area.  Make sure you clean up any brown goo as well 
and water any plants in the area because they might give you coins.  If any 
yellow enemies come out of the flowers, kill them by shooting them with 
water until they hit a hard surface, they should then pop and give you three 
coins.  Once you done talking to everyone and collecting all the coins in 
this area, walk over to the wall with the working watermill and take note of 
the big painted "M".  Use FLUDD to clean it and once its completely gone, 
you will receive your first blue coin.  Not that hard, was it?  Anyway, 
continue walking until you reach the watermill and the coin.  Pick up the 
coin and hop on the watermill.  Upon reaching the top, jump off to your left 
to pick up another yellow coin.  Now, jump over to the right side and pick 
up the other yellow coin and clean up the second red "M".  You will then 
receive your second blue coin.  Continue walking on the white watermill path 
and if you stop and look to your right you should noticed a little grassy 
area completely surrounded by white walls.  Note the red X and keep that 
area in mind.  Now jump over to the other side of the wall and follow the 
grey bricked path, picking up all of the yellow coins.  When you pick up all 
of the yellow coins, clean the brown goo and watch the trees grow.  You 
should see too mini piranhas so feed water into them until they explode.  
Once you restore all the trees walk back across the path you came through 
until you see the blue water.  Now jump in the water and get used to 
swimming.  Swim forward, toward the four yellow coins.  Try to avoid the 
water spiders by diving under the water as they approach you.  Continue 
swimming and collect four more yellow coins.  Now hop onto one of the 
lilipads and equip your Hover Nozzle.  Now jump and hold R to travel over 
the water quickly.  Hop onto the other lilipad and do the same thing.  Now 
continue swimming forward and you should see eight yellow coins each in 
pairs of four.  Grab the first pair of yellow coins and then dive under the 
water.  You should see a blue coin in the water.  Keep swimming and dive 
into the water until you grab it.  This is your third blue coin, your doing 
good progress ;).  Anyway, swim to the last bunch of yellow coins.  Now swim 
to the right and jump onto the lilipad.  From the lilipad, shoot water onto 
some of the brown goo and jump onto the grass.  Clean the area of any extra 
brown goo and make sure to avoid the gooey bolder from hitting you.  Then 
shoot water into the center of the brown goo and another gooey piranha will 
be revealed.

BOSS 4
=-=-=-
Name: Gooey Piranha # 3.

Location: Bianco Hills, Episode # 1.

Description: A Piranha plant, covered in a damaging gooey substance.

Attacks: Well, the gooey piranha itself has no attacks but the goo that
         surrounds the piranha releases some sort of colorful balloons that
         contain goo.  They explode when near so be careful.

Strategy: You have very little space to fight this gooey piranha but it will
          have to do.  You also have those colorful little bubbles that will
          try to attack you during this boss fight.  Anyway, go into Mario
          Cam View and wait until the gooey piranha opens its mouth.  When
          the mouth is open, it is vulnerable to your attacks so spray it
          with FLUDD.  If it takes to long to open, try squirting a bit of
          water on it so that it will open its mouth.  Remember to keep 
those
          little colorful bubbles at a distance from you.  Continue this
          strategy and after hitting it a third time it will die.

Episode 2: Down with Petey Piranha!
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

When you gain control, talk to the nearby inhabitants.  Once you do that, 
continue down the grayish path.  Grab the six coins on the way down and when 
you reach the water, hop on the rope.  Reaching the other side, talk to 
inhabitants around this area.  Make sure you water any plants in the area 
because they might give you coins.  If any yellow enemies come out of the 
flowers, kill them by shooting them with water until they hit a hard 
surface, they should then pop and give you three coins.  Now keep walking 
over until your near the pink lady that tosses you.  Look around and you 
should see a house with the red "M".  Spray it with water and receive your 
fourth Blue Coin.  Now get on the watermill and take it to the upper white 
watermill path.  Remember that Red X?  We are going to use that for 
something good!  Ok when your taking the watermill up make sure you jump off 
to the right side.  Now, don't go straight to the right, instead take the 
other direction that the white path goes too.  The one where the white path 
goes in a narrow direction, toward the other side of where you saw the red 
X.  Walk around it until your by the door on that white path, and look back 
and look for the X.  To make sure your in the right area, to the right of 
this door is a lower ground with another path and bells hanging from above.  
Now put Mario Cam view and shoot the red X from there.  Keep shooting it 
until a short scene of a blue coin coming out the wall is shown.  This is 
timed now so quickly run through the door and jump off to the left, and you 
should see the blue coin.  Grab it and make it your fifth blue coin.  Now 
you see this red X?  When you clean it, a blue coin comes out of the wall 
where the other red X was.  Too do this, wall jump back onto the white path 
where the door is.  From there begin to spray the red X with water until 
another scene of a blue coin is shown.  Quickly run through the door and 
jump off to your right, grabbing your sixth blue coin.  Now get back on the 
white path, and jump to the other side, where the trees, water, et cetera 
are.  Now, clean up the big mess of brown goo and you should get a lot of 
coins here.  Kill the little yellow enemies that come out the plants and 
kill the mini piranhas as well.  Once you kill all these enemies hop on a 
lilipad and shoot water to the opposite direction you want the lilipad to 
go.  Do this to get the sixteen yellow coins quickly.  Once you have all the 
coins in this area, run toward where you fought the first gooey piranha in 
Bianco Hills.  Walk up the new path, and FLUDD will tell you that the bridge 
is out.  Hop on one of the two ropes and walk across until you reach the 
other side.  Now follow the path upward, cleaning all brown goo, retrieving 
yellow coins, and avoiding the rolling bolder and flying goo.  Keep running 
up the path until you reach a water sprinkler and two paths.  Refill your 
tank and take the grassy path if you want/need more coins.  Try avoiding the 
piranhas vines through the grassy area.  If you took the grassy area, you 
will go in a complete circle killing enemies for coins and you'll end up 
back by the sprinkler and two paths.  Take the grey path that goes on 
upward, equipping your Hover Nozzle.  Now to get over the gaps avoiding the 
vines use your Hover Nozzle.  Once you get over all three gaps, talk to the 
inhabitant that tells you about the Giant Piranha.  Before you take the lift 
up, clean the red "M" and get your seventh blue coin.  Now, take the lift 
all the way to the top and jump off and onto the roof, where your fifth boss 
awaits you...

Name: Petey Piranha.

Location: Bianco Hills, Episode # 2.

Description: A large piranha plant.

Attacks: If you don't spray Petey Piranha while his mouth is open he will
         spray out a large amount of goo that will damage you, and cover you
         in goo.

Strategy: After you watch the quick FMV and gain control your first real 
boss
          battle begins.  Now avoid the colorful bubbles by taking them out
          with FLUDD and wait until Petey Piranha opens up its mouth.  When
          it does open up it's mouth, unload water into it UNTIL Petey
          Piranha falls on its back.  When Petey Piranha falls on his back, 
a
          red arrow above Peteys belly will show you were the damage is
          caused.  Climb onto Petey Piranhas belly and do a ground pound.
          Petey Piranha is now damaged.  Now, try and keep up with Petey
          Piranha because he will move a bit quicker.  When he opens his
          mouth up again, shoot water into his mouth and then simply hop on
          his stomach and ground pound it again.  Repeat this one more time
          and Petey Piranha is a goner!
=-=-=-
BOSS 5

When Petey is defeated, watch him get rock hard and crack into pieces.  Now, 
continue by picking up your third earned Shine Sprite!  Congratulations!  
When you return to Delfino Plaza simply jump back into the "M".

Episode 3: The Hillside Cave Secret
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Watch the quick introduction to the level and keep in mind where that door 
is located.  When you gain control head down the long gray path while 
talking to each of the inhabitants.  When you arrive to the river, use the 
rope to get to the other side and then walk along side the river all the way 
to the left, and at the end in the water is a blue coin.  Now kill the rest 
of the enemies in the area to collect the yellow coins and then head to the 
door that leads to the other side of the island, the lake side.  Now from 
here walk straight through the passage and try to avoid the enemies that 
throw little pebbles/rocks from the trees.  As you keep walking forward you 
will see three long logs floating in the water.  Jump acorss all three and 
when you reach the other side equip your Hover nozzle.  Now, back flip off 
the pole and wall jump off it toward the big wall.  As soon as you wall kick 
off the poll use your Hover and try to get to the higher ground.  If you 
made it you should see a pink side that has a white arrow pointing up.  From 
here, face the sign and then do a back flip and use your Hover nozzle to 
float onto the rope above you.  From the rope look to the firection closest 
to the wall and you should see the entrance to the cave.  Bounce off the 
rope and hover toward the entrance.  Go inside and you will see a quick FMV 
of Shadow Mario floating past you and grabbing FLUDD in the process.  You 
are now in the first obstacle course in Super Mario Sunshine.  Sure this one 
isn't hard but the ones that lie ahead are MUCH harder.  Anyway, complete 
the course and take as long as you may because the course track isn't timed. 
  At the end of the course awaits another Shine Sprite.  Grab it and you 
will be taken back to Delfino Square with FLUDD in possession.

(NOTE: YOU MAY COME BACK TO THIS CAVE AT ANY TIME YOU WISH, YOU WILL AWARDED
ANOTHER SHINE AS LONG AS YOU CAN COMPLETE THE OBSTACLE COURSE AGAIN.
THERE'S A CATCH THOUGH, YOU MUST COLLECT 8 RED COINS AND THE COURSE IS
TIMED!  GOOD LUCK!)

When your ready jump back into the "M" for another episode...

Episode 4: Red Coins of Windmill Village
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Most of you might remember what you had to do with red coins, eight in 
specific.  Yup, it's the same thing in Super Mario Sunshine.  You have to 
collect eight and some are well hidden.  Anyway, continue down the first 
path making sure to talk to everyone on the way down.  When you reach the 
river hop onto the rope.  From this rope  jump off to your left until you 
see a rope in-between two small buildings.  Back flip and grab onto the 
first rope and jump on the rope to reach the rope above while grabbing the 
FIRST RED COIN.  Now from this rope walk to your right and on roof grab the 
SECOND RED COIN.  Now jump to the small brown platform ahead of you and 
continue to head to the white wall.  When you land on the white wall head to 
your left and grab the THIRD RED COIN.  Continue walking along the white 
path until you reach the FOURTH RED COIN that is in a small sized door on 
the white wall.  Now back flip and hover so that you can reach the upper 
white wall above the door.  Yes it's possible and when you are on top head 
to your left to grab the FIFTH RED COIN.  After you grab this coin use to 
rope to your right to get the roof across and make sure to avoid the 
electric enemy on the rope.  When you arrive on this roof grab the SIXTH RED 
COIN and avoid the windy enemy.  When on this roof look to the right and you 
should see another red coin so hover over to it and receive the SEVENTH RED 
COIN.  After you land and fall the ground look at the building in front of 
you.  Look up and the building should have to mini towers, that's the next 
place you have to get to.  Walk up to the buildings brown front door and do 
a back flip and hover up and barely grab the edge of the roof.  Climb up the 
small edge and do another flip in front of the right tower and hover into 
the little entrance that contains a blue coin.  From here jump back into the 
middle of both towers and use the left tower to start your wall jump and on 
the left towers roof is the EIGHTH RED COIN.  Watch where the Shine Sprite 
is located.  From this roof look behind toward the river and you should see 
a tall pole with a long white sheet facing each direction and you should 
also spot the blue coin.  Jump to the polw with the platform and the flags 
and from there quickly hover to the blue coin while avoiding the windy 
enemy.  Now head back over to the big building with two towers and this time 
get on the right towers roof.  Now use the long rope to get to the brown 
platform all the way in the sky.  Avoid the enemies and when you reach the 
brown platform grab the Shine Sprite.  After grabbing the Shine Sprite 
you'll be taken back to Delfino Plaza.  Jump back into the rainbow "M" when 
you ready.


=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Episode 5: Petey Piranha Strikes Back
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Watch the FMV and pay attention to where Petey Piranha is located.  From 
here do the same as always, head down the first path while talking to 
everyone on the way.  Cross the lake using the log and head through the door 
to the right.  Follow the passage straight ahead while avoiding the enemies 
of the tree and quickly swim across the lake to the other side, as if you 
were going back to the secret cave.  Wall jump off the wall and hover toward 
the brown platform toward the direction you previously came from.  Once on 
this platform you should see a couple of other platforms in front of you, 
one which contains a red hover box.  Jump on the box and grab the new Rocket 
Hover.  Test it out and get used to it.  Now return to the village and once 
you go through the door head to the right.  When you reach a brown figure 
begin to squirt it with the squirt nozzle.  It should hit the bells above 
and coins should fall out.  Grab the coins and then use the squirt nozzle to 
hit all three bells at the same time.  A 1-Up mushroom should fall so grab 
it.  Continue past the brown thing and head over the grass and toward those 
brown poles near the wall.  Look up and you should see some cliffs.  Equip 
your rocket nozzle and use it to reach the cliffs.  When you reach the top 
quickly take out the suirt nozzle and clean off any goo that is near you.  
Now use the rocket nozzle to get to the higher brown platforms because there 
is a blue coin up there.  Now head toward Petey Piranha but DON'T try to 
rocket nozzle your way over there.  Stand right in front of the broken part 
of the fence and begin to squirt.  One of those little hopping pink enemies 
will hook on to your nozzle and when it does begin to squirt and try to hit 
Petey Piranha with the pink enemy after you let go of the R button.  When 
Petey Piranha awakes the next boss battle begins...

          When he finally opens his mouth, spray his mouth with FLUDD until
          he falls onto his back like the first time you fought Petey.  His
          belly button has reappeared on his so jump on to his belly and do 
a
          ground pound.  Now Petey will get back up and fly back up into the
          air.  If your low on water, simply hit the blue box again to

Episode 8: The Red Coins of the Lake
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
The last episode in Bianco Hills and it isn't easy either.  It's another 
"collect eight red coins scavenger hunt" episode.  The red coins are well 
located and will require some skill to reach them.  When you gain control 
head down the long gray path while talking to each of the inhabitants.  When 
you reach the river cross via log.  Once on the other side head to the left 
and run to the house with the two towers on its roof.  Hover up there and 
when in-between the two towers wall jump on make sure you on the left towers 
roof.  From here look toward the cliffs and you should see a floating blue 
coin next to the large brown pole.  Jump toward it and hover toward that 
direction and grab the blue coin on your way to the ground.  From here turn 
back into the direction of the house and you should see a red circle colored 
on the wall of the house.  Spray the red circle and as soon as you regain 
control simply run to your left back to the house near the rope and log that 
cross the river.  It's the house that has a rope connected to it that leads 
to the other house.  Grab the blue coin before it disappears and then spray 
the red circle behind this house.  Once you regain control run back to the 
house where the first red circle was and grab the blue coin before it 
disappears.  You should now have 15 BLUE COINS.  From here you can run back 
to the house that is near the river with the rope and log.  Use the ropes 
in-between the two houses to make your way to the roof of the house.  From 
here make your way to the top of the white wall and hover over to the trees. 
  Avoid the enemies and continue to make your ways through the trees.  At 
the end of the path of trees, hover to the brown platform and use the rope 
being held by both brown platforms to grab the FIRST RED COIN.  Make your 
way to the other brown platform to the left and from here back flip into the 
air and hover to the extremely long rope that goes in the other direction.  
Walk to the right on this rope and try avoiding the windy enemy.  On this 
rope will be the SECOND RED COIN so grab it and continue walking to the 
other end.  From here, jump down the the red hover box and grab the rocket 
nozzle.  Now look to the side of the giant windmill and from here you should 
see four yellow coins and the third red coin.  Rocket nozzle in that 
direction and swim  until your in the center of the four yellow coins and 
right underneath the red coin.  Avoid the water spiders and rocket nozzle 
and just as the rocket nozzle is about to fill up jump out the water into 
the sky and you should blast up.  Try and grab the THIRD RED COIN either on 
your way up or back on your way down.  Once you grab it, swim to the rope 
further ahead to the left that has a fourth red coin on it.  Rocket nozzle 
onto the rope and grab the FOURTH RED COIN.  From here make your way to the 
road to the big windmill.  Once you pass the bridge portion of this path 
continue walking until you see some yellow coins floating in midair.  Stand 
on the shadow of the coins and rocket nozzle.  You will grab on a rope and 
you will have to continue to rocket nozzle twice more.  Once you reach the 
top make your way to the left platform on the end of the rope.  This 
platform contains a pink flower with an enemy so kill it at all costs by 
waiting for it to try and pound you and then jumping on the flower portion 
of its head.  From this platform look in the direction of the big windmill 
and you will notice a higher brown platform.  Soom your camera all the way 
out and then rocket nozzle in that direction and land on that brown platform 
at all costs.  Grab the blue coin on this platform and from here walk on the 
rope to the left and grab the FIFTH RED COIN on it.  Now rocket nozzle back 
to the platform that contained the pink flower enemy.  From this platform 
walk to the rope that is in front of you and once on it try and avoid both 
the windy enemy and the electrical enemy.  On your way to the other side 
make sure you grab the floating SIXTH RED COIN.  When you reach the brown 
platform you will notice another rope connected to it.  Look above this rope 
and you will notice a red coin located high in the sky.  Walk on this rope 
and when underneath the red coin use the rope to hop up and grab the SEVENTH 
RED COIN.  From here make your way to the end of the rope and from this 
brown platform hop to the platform located on the left.  On this platform 
look to the rope that heads back in the direction you just came from and you 
will notice the last red coin.  Walk on it and grab the EIGTH RED COIN in 
the process.  Now look at where the Shine Sprite is placed.  Make your way 
to the path the heads to the roof of the giant windmill and when you reach 
the blue nozzle box break it and grab the hover nozzle.  Now continue to 
make your way up the grey platform until you reach the moving brown 
platforms.  Hop on one and look at the windmills wall.  When you think your 
close enough jump in the direction of the Shine Sprite and hover until your 
in the little alcove that contains the Shine Sprite.  Now grab the Shine 
Sprite and you will do your little dancing move.  You have completed Bianco 
Hills...or have you?!

Bianco Hills is NOT completed!!!  Do you remember those two obstacle courses 
we struggled through?  Yep, they each contain another Shine Sprite but 
there's a big catch.  This time you will have to collect eight red coins in 
each of them.  To obtain this you will have to enter each obstacle course 
through episode eight.  You will also obtain another Shine Sprite by 
collecting 100 coins in Bianco Hills.

When you return to Delfino Island you may jump back into the "M" to try and 
obtain these three additional Shine Sprites or you may continue onto Ricco 
Harbor.

Bianco Hills: Red Coins of Obstacle # 1
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Episode 8!
=-=-=-=-=-
When you gain control head down the long gray path while talking to each of 
the inhabitants.  When you arrive to the river, cross via log.  Now head to 
the door that leads to the other side of the island, the lake side.  Now 
from here walk straight through the passage and try to avoid the enemies 
that throw little pebbles/rocks from the trees.  Don't walk all the way to 
the end of the path, instead walk to your right and you will see another 
portion of land as well as three logs that are standing in the river.  Hover 
to the other side of the land and kill the enemies that come out of the pink 
flowers.  Now head to the left and you should see a fruit in the ground as 
well as some red brick platforms sticking out of the wall and over the 
warer.  Wall jump off long wall and hover up onto this brick platform.  Kill 
this first enemy and hover onto the second platform.  Kill this enemy as 
well and hove to the third and last brick platform.  Kill the enemy on this 
one and he should drop a blue coin.  From this platform hover over to the 
platform that contains the red hover box.  DO NOT GRAB THE ROCKET NOZZLE!  
Now, make your way up toward the door to the obstacle course and when in 
front of the door simply enter it.  This time you'll notice that there was 
no quick FMV of Shadow Mario snatching FLUDD.  That's because you can use 
FLUDD now.  When you begin this obstacle course walk up to the big red 
button and ground pound.  Your now timed one minute exactly!  Make your way 
up the moving platforms while grabbing the FIRST RED COIN on the second 
platform.  Once you reach the top you will keep in mind that on each corner 
orange box is a red coin.  Jump to the lower left corner to grab the SECOND 
RED COIN then to the lower right corner box to grab the THIRD RED COIN.  Now 
move up to the upper right box to grab the FOURTH RED COIN and hover toward 
the upper left box to grab the FIFTH RED COIN.  Now jump ahead to the light 
brown platform right before the long green platform and you should as least 
have well over 30 seconds.  From here back flip toward the right and hover 
as much as you can toward the two moving star platforms.  Grab the SIXTH RED 
COIN on the first moving star and jump to the next star and grab the SEVENTH 
RED COIN.  From here you will have make your way to the light brown platform 
on the other side of the green platform.  Back flip in that direction off 
the star and hover toward that platform.  Now look to the other side of the 
green platform and you will see another moving star.  Back flip off this 
light brown platform and hover with all you can to that star and you should 
either barely make it or just barely grab onto the edge.  Climb on the star 
and grab the EIGHT RED COIN.  The Shine Sprite will appear next to the old 
Shine Sprite and the time will stop.  Now, patiently make your way back to 
the green platform and make your way to the end of the obstacle WITHOUT 
dying to grab the second Shine Sprite of the obstacle course.  Pick up the 
Shine Sprite and you'll be taken back to Delfino Plaza.  Jump back into the 
rainbow "M" when ready to obtain the next Shine Sprite.

Er, I hate obtaining this Shine Sprite.  When you gain control head down the 
long gray path while talking to each of the inhabitants.  When you arrive to 
the river, cross via log.  Now head to the door that leads to the other side 
of the island, the lake side.  Now from here walk straight through the 
passage and try to avoid the enemies that throw little pebbles/rocks from 
the trees.  Now hop on a nearby lilipad and use your squirt hover to reach 
the entrance to this second obstacle course.  When you by the entrance 
simply back flip off the lilpad and hover into the entrance AVOIDING the 
grey hover box.  This time you'll notice that there was no quick FMV of 
Shadow Mario snatching FLUDD.  That's because you can use FLUDD now.  
Remeber, in this obstacle course your hover nozzle is the best thing!  
Without it j00r d00mz0rzeD 4 3VeRz0rz!!!  Sorry...slight 1337 speak came 
over me, heh.  Anyway, make your way to the red button as soon as you begin. 
  Equip your hover nozzle and then ground pound the red button and you will 
given one minute and thirty seconds.  As soon as you begin hop on the blue 
platform and wait until the reds flip.  After that quickly hover over to the 
first red platform and jump and grab the FIRST RED COIN.  Now quickly make 
your way to the other side of these moving platforms.  Hop on the moving 
star and grab the SECOND RED COIN and the 1-Up Mushroom.  Now quickly move 
on ahead and hover to the big colored box.  Once your on it wait for it to 
mov a bit then back flip off it and hover yourself to the yellow platform.  
Wait until the red triangle move across the yellow platform and quickly 
slide to the other side while grabbing the THIRD RED COIN in the process.  
Now get on this box and all I can tell you is good ****ing luck!  This is 
the most fustrating part of this obstacle course but keep in mind that you 
don't need to jump when the box moves.  Simply walk over each edge to the 
side that is going to be facing upward.  While the box is moving up make 
sure to grab the FOURTH RED COIN and FIFTH RED COIN as well as the 1-Up 
Mushroom.  This area is where the hover nozzle is really helpful so use it 
to your best advantage!  When you reach the top go for the red coin 
completely to the right.  Just be patient and take time on this but not too 
much.  When you reach the blue platform jump up and grab the SIXTH RED COIN. 
  Now make your way to the red coin in the center.  Just be patient but 
don't waste too much time.  Grab the SEVENTH RED COIN in the center then 
continue to the upper left and grab the EIGHTH RED COIN.  Now, make your way 
to the end of the obstacle WITHOUT dying to grab the second Shine Sprite of 
the obstacle course.  Pick up the Shine Sprite and you'll be taken back to 
Delfino Plaza.  Jump back into the rainbow "M" when ready to obtain the next 
Shine Sprite.

Bianco Hills: Collecting the 100 Yellow Coins!
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
=-=-=-=-=-
Episode 8!
=-=-=-=-=-
To obtain this Shine Sprite we'll have to collect 100 yellow coins in Bianco 
Hills but it isn't going to be easy!  I chose to complete this in episode 
eight because I found it to be the easiest.  Alright, when you begin make 
your way down the path and when you reach the river cross via log.  Now head 
to your left and find every single damn enemy you can.  The ones that pop 
out the flower SHOULD be killed by forcing them to hit a wall with FLUDD.  
They each reveal three yellow coins so remember NOT TO kill them by hitting 
them on the head.  Find all of them in the village area and kill them!  Now, 
each circle of flowers has about five coins that you can gain, you must 
successfully water all of the plants in the circle and have them opened at 
the same time.  To do this you might want to twirl and shoot water at the 
same time.  Once you water the plants in the circle coins will be revelaed.  
Do this on all the groups of flowers near the village.  You can also hover 
over the entrance doorway of houses the reveal one coin.  When you do this 
make your way to the three bells by the white wall.  Spray the brown wheel 
thingy and make it hit the bells, which will reveal four yellow coins.  You 
should, AT LEAST, have 50 yellow coins by the time your done with the 
village.  Now, make your way to the top of the white wall and head all the 
way to the right end of this wall, which is in the direction of the 
beginning of the level.  When you reach the end of the white wall, you 
should look up and you will notice that there is a tower on this white wall, 
that is obviously white.  Back flip in the direction of that white wall, and 
wall jump off it and then hover onto it.  You will find a dirty muddy guy.  
Clean him and then speak to him and he will give you a blue coin.  Now, 
hover to the trees and there will be a yellow coin on some of the trees.  To 
kill the enemies on these trees, simply spray them from a far distance when 
there heads are revealed.  They, will be dazed so when they are quickly move 
toward them and jump on there head and they each reveal one yellow coin.  Do 
this, and then, move back to the ground and move to the left near the other 
pink flowers.  Kill these enemies that come out the flowers, and flower all 
the pink flowers to reveal some more coins.  Now, head back to the tree area 
and this time hover over the river onto the little island with another pair 
of pink flowers.  Kill these enemies as well and water all the flowers.  
Now, wall jump up to the brick platforms that are sticking out the wall and 
kill the enemies up here.  Now, hover to the platform with the red nozzle 
box.  Grab the rocket nozzle and then jump into the water and swim until you 
reach a lilipad.  Hop on a lilipad, and use your squirt nozzle to grab the 
coins that are in pairs of four.  Go completely around because there are 
four pairs of four yellow coins to make a total of, 16.  Now, get back on 
the path to the big windmill and when your on the bridge you may jump off to 
the left and onto the left platform, walk the rope, and jump on the rope to 
grab the coins under the bridge.  Once your back on the road to the 
windmill, walk past the bridge and you should see the yellow coins that are 
floating in the air.  Use your rocket nozzle to grab those coins, and 
continue to do this on your way up the ropes.  Now, grab any coins on the 
ropes until you get 100 which you should already have aquired, if you 
followed these steps.  When you do have 100 coins, simply use your rocket 
nozzle to reach the Shine Sprite.  Pick up the Shine Sprite and you'll be 
taken back to Delfino Plaza.

Boss Walkthrough
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
During your adventure on Isle Delfino, you will stumble across enemies.  
Some of these enemies are bosses and some may be easy and others may have a 
difficult strategy.  Regardless of difficulty, they will be listed here, in 
the order that I came across them.  Enjoy.

=-=-=-=
BOSS 1
=-=-=-=
Name: Gooey Piranha # 1.

Location: Delfino Airstrip.

Description: A Piranha plant, covered in a damaging gooey substance.

Attacks: It has no attacks, if you don't hit it for a short amount of time 
it
         will simply go back into the ground.  Just keep at a distance from
         the goo.

Strategy: Go into Mario Cam View (As described in the controls section) and
          wait until the gooey piranha opens its mouth.  When the mouth is
          open, it is vulnerable to your attacks so spray it with FLUDD.
          If it takes to long to open, try squirting a bit of water on it so
          that it will open its mouth.  Continue this and after hitting it
          your third time it will die.  Congratulations, you defeated you
          very first Super Mario Sunshine boss.

BOSS 1

BOSS 2
=-=-=-
Name: Gooey Piranha # 2.

Location: Delfino Plaza.

Description: A Piranha plant, covered in a damaging gooey substance.

Attacks: Well, the gooey piranha itself has no attacks but the goo that
         surrounds the piranha releases some sort of colorful balloons that
         contain goo.  They explode when near so be careful.

Strategy: It's pretty much the same thing as Boss # 1 except for one minor
          change.  This time, little colorful bubbles come out of the goo 
and
          try to attack you.  They don't do much damage but when they 
explode
          the cover you in goo so try and take them out when they are near
          you.  Anyway, go into Mario Cam View and wait until the gooey
          piranha opens its mouth.  When the mouth is open, it is vulnerable
          to your attacks so spray it with FLUDD.  If it takes to long to
          open, try squirting a bit of water on it so that it will open its
          mouth.  Remember to keep those little colorful bubbles at a far
          distance from you.  Continue this and after hitting the piranha a
          third time it will die.

Trigger/Prize: The Statue of Pianta will rise from the ground.

BOSS 2

BOSS 3
=-=-=-
Name: Shadow Mario #1.

Location: Delfino Plaza.

Description: The shadowed figure that looks a lot like Mario.

Attacks: It leaves a trail of goo every once in a while.

Strategy: As you regain control after the short FMV, follow Shadow Mario.
          Make sure you use your Run & Squirt technique to avoid touching 
the
          goo he leaves behind.  When you are close the Shadow Mario, spray
          water on him by Running & Squirting.  Continue doing this until
          clumsy Shadow Mario trips and lets go of Princess Peach.  Walk up
          to Shadow Mario and he will complain and then get up and run 
again.
          Follow him and he will head back to the Statue of Pianta.  He will
          then paint a rainbow "M" on one side of the statue and then jump
          through the "M".  As soon as you regain control, shoot water into
          the "M" until a bright force of light begins to glow over it, now
          jump into the shiny "M".  Your third Boss battle is over.

Trigger/Prize: Princess Peach and access to Biano Hills.

BOSS 4

Name: Gooey Piranha # 3.

Location: Bianco Hills, Episode # 1.

Description: A Piranha plant, covered in a damaging gooey substance.

Attacks: Well, the gooey piranha itself has no attacks but the goo that
         surrounds the piranha releases some sort of colorful balloons that
         contain goo.  They explode when near so be careful.

Strategy: You have very little space to fight this gooey piranha but it will
          have to do.  You also have those colorful little bubbles that will
          try to attack you during this boss fight.  Anyway, go into Mario
          Cam View and wait until the gooey piranha opens its mouth.  When
          the mouth is open, it is vulnerable to your attacks so spray it
          with FLUDD.  If it takes to long to open, try squirting a bit of
          water on it so that it will open its mouth.  Remember to keep 
those
          little colorful bubbles at a distance from you.  Continue this
          strategy and after hitting it a third time it will die.

Trigger/Prize: Your second Shine Sprite.

BOSS 4

BOSS 5
=-=-=-
Name: Petey Piranha.

Location: Bianco Hills, Episode # 2.

Description: A large piranha plant.

Attacks: If you don't spray Petey Piranha while his mouth is open he will
         spray out a large amount of goo that will damage you, and cover you
         in goo.

Strategy: After you watch the quick FMV and gain control your first real 
boss
          battle begins.  Now avoid the colorful bubbles by taking them out
          with FLUDD and wait until Petey Piranha opens up its mouth.  When
          it does open up it's mouth, unload water into it UNTIL Petey
          Piranha falls on its back.  When Petey Piranha falls on his back, 
a
          red arrow above Peteys belly will show you were the damage is
          caused.  Climb onto Petey Piranhas belly and do a ground pound.
          Petey Piranha is now damaged.  Now, try and keep up with Petey
          Piranha because he will move a bit quicker.  When he opens his
          mouth up again, shoot water into his mouth and then simply hop on
          his stomach and ground pound it again.  Repeat this one more time
          and Petey Piranha is a goner!

Trigger/Prize: A Shine Sprite & Bianco Hills, Episode # 3.

BOSS 6

Name: Petey Piranha # 2.

Location: Bianco Hills, Episode # 5.

Description: A large piranah plant that can fly.

Attacks: A powerful tornado that has the ability to blow you away and large
         goo balls.

Strategy: This is the first difficult boss that you deal with.  When you 
wake
          him up he will proceed to fly toward the village.  Run back to the
          river avoiding the goo all over the place and hit the blue box to
          retreive the Hoover Nozzle.  Now use the nearby ropes to move your
          way up to the roof.  Continue up the ropes until your as high at
          Petey Piranha.  Patiently wait until he is near you then spray him
          with water.  Now jump down near him and try to avoid the tornados.
          When he finally opens his mouth, spray his mouth with FLUDD until
          he falls onto his back like the first time you fought Petey.  His
          belly button has reappeared on his so jump on to his belly and do 
a
          ground pound.  Now Petey will get back up and fly back up into the
          air.  If your low on water, simply hit the blue box again to 
refill
          your tank up quickly.  Now move back on up to the roof and proceed
          to shoot him down with FLUDD.  When he falls down to the ground
          just do the same thing as last time, spray him then pound him.
          Continue this once more and Petey Piranha # 2 is finished.

Name: Shadow Mario #2.

Location: Bianco Hills, Episode # 7.

Description: The shadowed figure that looks a lot like Mario.

Attacks: It leaves a trail of goo every once in a while.

Strategy: When you gain control, head to where Shadow Mario is awaiting you.
          When he sees you he will begin to run away and his pttern doesn't
          quite change that much.  Make sure you use your Run & Squirt
          technique to avoid touching the goo he leaves behind.  When you 
are
          close the Shadow Mario, spray water on him by Running & Squirting.
          Keep a close eye on where Shadow Mario exactly heads because he
          will continue to do it.  Sometimes he will climb walls, so simply
          do it as he does.  Continue doing this until clumsy Shadow Mario
          trips.  He will then say that this isn't over and will then
          disappear.

BOSS 8

Name: Gooey Piranha # 4.

Location: Delfino Plaza.

Description: A Piranha plant, covered in a damaging gooey substance.

Attacks: Well, the gooey piranha itself has no attacks but the goo that
         surrounds the piranha releases some sort of colorful balloons that
         contain goo.  They explode when near so be careful.

Strategy: Same strategy as Boss #4.  Go into Mario Cam View and wait until
          the gooey piranha opens its mouth.  When the mouth is open, it is
          vulnerable to your attacks so spray it with FLUDD.  If it takes to
          long to open, try squirting a bit of water on it so that it will
          open its mouth.  Remember to keep those little colorful bubbles at
          a distance from you.  Continue this strategy and after hitting it 
a
          third time it will die.

Harbor.

BOSS 8

=-=-=-
BOSS 9
=-=-=-
Name: Gooper Blooper # 1.

Location: Ricco Harbor, Episode # 1.

Description: A large size blooper that has four long tentacles.

Attacks:  This blooper has some more attacks then Petey Piranha.  When you
          shoot it with water it will sometimes try and whip you with all
          four of it's tentacles.  Sometimes it will just try and attack you
          with one of its tentacles.  He can also shoot goo at you if you 
are
          far away from him that is.

Strategy: When the battle begins, quickly spray Gooper Bloopers face with
          FLUDD.  This will eliminate all the black goo from its nose which
          you'd have to do later anyway.  When you begin to shoot Gooper in
          the face he will try and hit you with all of his tentacles.
          Quickly dive/jump out of the way and stomp on one of his 
tentacles.
          When the tentacle appears flat, press and hold B on the end of the
          tentacle and you will grab on to it.  Begin to move back until the
          tentacle snaps off of Gooper(OUCH!)!  Now be careful if Gooper
          tries to attack you again and try and move out of the snapped
          tentacles way as it can damage you before disappearing.  Now shoot
          Gooper in the face again and continue to do this until all four
          tentacles have been snapped off.  Once all four have been snapped
          off, move toward Gooper Bloopers nose and press and hold B.  You
          will grab it so now just move back until it snaps off.  When it
          snaps off, Gooper will fly up into the sky but he will come back.
          When he lands make sure you aren't near him because he will spray
          black goo all around him.  Now, clean up all the goo avoiding
          Goopers tentacles and then do the stategy as was listed above.
          Avoid, pound, grab, pull, SNAP. LOL, not really funny is it...
          -_-...

Name: Gooper Blooper # 2.

Location: Ricco Harbor, Episode # 5.

Description: A large size blooper that has four long tentacles.

Attacks:  When you shoot it with water it will sometimes try and whip you
          with all four of it's tentacles.  Sometimes it will just try and
          attack you with one of its tentacles.  He can also shoot goo at 
you
          if you are far away from him that is.  It also has a new move.
          Once in a while it will whip out all four tentacles, each facing a
          different direction and begin to whirl.

Strategy: Not much of a difference here.  You have a much smaller area to
          fight Gooper Blooper 2.  If you do need health you don't have to
          leave the Heliport, just go to the green fence in one hole in the
          ground and ground pound it.  You will now be below the Heliport 
and
          there will be some coins.  Don't take them all though, leave some
          to spare.  Quickly spray Gooper Bloopers face with FLUDD.  This
          will eliminate all the black goo from its nose which you'd have to
          do later anyway.  When you begin to shoot Gooper in the face he
          will try and hit you with all of his tentacles.  Quickly dive/jump
          out of the way and stomp on one of his tentacles.  When the
          tentacle appears flat, press and hold B on the end of the tentacle
          and you will grab on to it.  Begin to move back until the tentacle
          snaps off of Gooper(OUCH!)!  Now be careful if Gooper tries to
          attack you again and try and move out of the snapped tentacles way
          as it can damage you before disappearing.  By now he may have used
          his new move in which he puts out all tentacles into the open and
          begins to whirl.  When he does do this, jump to avoid his 
tentacles
          and shoot him in the face with FLUDD to stop him.  Now shoot 
Gooper
          in the face again and continue to do this until all four tentacles
          have been snapped off.  Once all four have been snapped off, move
          toward Gooper Bloopers nose and press and hold B.  You will grab 
it
          so now just move back until it snaps off.  When it snaps off,
          Gooper will fly up into the sky but he will come back.  When he
          lands make sure you aren't near him because he will spray black 
goo
          all around him.  Now, clean up all the goo avoiding Goopers
          tentacles and then do the stategy as was listed above.  Avoid,
          pound, grab, pull, SNAP.

Attacks: Well, the gooey piranha itself has no attacks but the goo that
         surrounds the piranha releases some sort of colorful balloons that

so
          spray it with FLUDD.  If it takes to long to open, try squirting a
          bit of water on it so that it will open its mouth.  Remember to
          keep those little colorful bubbles at a distance from you.
          Continue this strategy and after hitting it a third time it will
          shoot out multiple enemies.  Now kill these enemies and you will
          have to fight this gooey piranha again.  Just do the same strategy
          as before, shoot it three times in its mouth.

Trigger/Prize: The lighthouse & the path to Gelato Beach.

Frequently Asked Questions
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
1. Q: How do I get to new stages?
   A: Isle Delfino is being plagued by a series of problems.  Investigating
      these problems and clearing them up would open up new stages.  Be sure
      to talk with the island inhabitants, as they're full of vital
      information.  When in Delfino Plaza, pay attention to D.E.B.S.,
      the Delfino Emergency Broadcast System.  It displays the latest news
      and happenings at the bottom of the screen.
2. Q: How do you defeat enemies?
   A: The most basic technique is to jump on enemies' heads.  Mario can
      defeat or stun many enemies by squirting them with water.  Throwing
      things at foes may also be worthwhile.  Bosses and other special
      enemies can only be defeated by certain means, so try combining lots 
of
      moves to discover each baddie's weakness.
3. Q: How do you recover Shine Sprites?
   A: Each stage on the island, excluding Delfino Plaza, contains numerous
      episodes.  Finish each of these adventures to recover a Shine Sprite.
      Some episodes are harder than others, so instead of struggling too
      much, it's sometimes best to try and complete, other episodes first 
and
      then return to the difficult ones later in the game.
4. Q: How do you clean Mario when he is covered in goop?
   A: FLUDD can get rid of the pollution, right? Well, the power of water
      works for Mario, too.  Simply get wet to get clean.  Spinning at high
      speeds, like a living washing machine is effective as well.
5. Q: The sunlight on the island is to bright, what do I do?
   A: As Mario recovers the scattered Shine Sprites, the sun over Isle
      Delfino slowly recovers its strength and gets gradually brighter.  If
      you've got sensitive eyes, search for the sunglasses vendor in Delfino
      Plaza.  You should be able to get some shades and give your eyes a
      break.  To get rid of the glasses and see the world in its natural
      lighting, simply talk to the vendor
      again.
6. Q: What are the round lids I see from time to time on the ground
   A: These are manhole covers.  Perform a ground pound on them to drop
      through and pass underground.  The subterranean tunnels here link up 
to
      various points and may provide valuable shortcuts.
