You're right, you can see that they have hands not 4 feet because they're clenched into fists.--[[User:Kamek101|Kamek101]] 09:36, 9 December 2007 (EST) | You're right, you can see that they have hands not 4 feet because they're clenched into fists.--[[User:Kamek101|Kamek101]] 09:36, 9 December 2007 (EST) | ||
I don't think that's what he or she means, they are standing on two feet ( or hands ) and the ones in the front aren't really touching the ground, it just appears that way because dry bones is slouched. | |||
Never mind actually, I think I was the one who didn't understand what you said, well typed anyway. | |||

And, correct me if I'm wrong, didn't they have magic in Mario RPG? [[User: Mecha-Boss Unit]] | And, correct me if I'm wrong, didn't they have magic in Mario RPG? [[User: Mecha-Boss Unit]] | ||
:The ''boss'' Dry bones used magic in Mario party DS. I'm pretty sure Kamek was comanding/controlling him. Dry & Dull bones both ''might'' use magic in the Paper mario series to bring back partners. Also, aren't their bones held together by magic? I mean there aren't Dry Goombas... It has to be Kamek! - {{User|Doopliss rocks}} | |||
That Explained a Bunch. Thanks! but woulbn't it be cool if there WERE dry goombas? [[User: Mecha-Boss Unit]] | |||
:There were [[Zombie Goomba]]s {{User:MrConcreteDonkey/sig}} | |||

Will someone please explain to me where Dry Bones was in Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games? I've searched the article ten times over yet I haven't seen the word Sonic in the whole thing except as the title of a (misplaced) navbox. I think it should be removed from that navbox and the navbox removed from the page.--[[ | Will someone please explain to me where Dry Bones was in Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games?

Also, where is Super Mario Galaxy 2 section? I'm thinking this should be unfeatured. {{User:Booderdash/sig|.}} | |||
==Skeleton (Species)?== | |||
Is it allowed if I create a [[Skeleton (species)]] article to describe the species origin of skeleton enemies like Dry Bones and Fishbones?--[[User:Prince Ludwig|Prince Ludwig]] 23:36, 16 June 2011 (EDT) | |||
:Seems it's okay then. I'll try.--[[User:Prince Ludwig|Prince Ludwig]] 15:22, 12 July 2011 (EDT) | |||
::I suggest not, skeletons aren't really a species just meatless remains of the dead or undead. -[[User:FourPaperHeroes|<span style="color:green">'''Four'''</span> <span style="color:grey">'''Paper'''</span>]] [[User talk:FourPaperHeroes|<span style="color:green">'''Heroes'''</span>]] [[File:FourPaperHeroes.jpg|35px]] 15:34, 12 July 2011 (EDT) | |||

== Origin of Name == | |||
My guess is that the English name comes from the African-American spiritual "[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dem_Bones Dem Bones]," itself based on [http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ezekiel%2037:1-14&version=MSG;CEV;CEB;NET;NRSV Ezekiel 7:1-14] from the Hebrew Bible, although in ''that'' tale, the bones regained their sinews, flesh, and skin, while the Mario enemy is a collection of disconnected bones held together by magic; the only reason I don't add this to the article is that I haven't found a source at or about Nintendo that said so.

This article is missing the Bestiary Info Boxes for Paper Mario, Paper Mario TTYD and Super Paper Mario. [[User:Hellmasterbg|Hellmasterbg]] ([[User talk:Hellmasterbg|talk]]) 02:04, 12 June 2014 (EDT) | |||

Is Mario World the only game which they throw bones? --[[Special:Contributions/78.248.232.59|78.248.232.59]] 13:13, 29 March 2016 (EDT) | |||
:Your answer would be right in this article: they throw bones in ''Paper Mario'' games, ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time'', ''Super Princess Peach'', ''Mario Party DS'', and ''Mario Party 9''. {{User:Bazooka Mario/sig}} 20:39, 30 March 2016 (EDT) | |||
::They also throw it in ''Super Mario Maker''. Only in ''Super Mario World'' style.--{{User:LudwigVon/sig}} 20:53, 30 March 2016 (EDT) | |||
== Koopa or Koopa Troopa == | |||
Right now, the leading sentence calls Dry Bones "skeletal versions of Koopa Troopas," and they are listed as a subspecies on both [[Koopa Troopa]]'s page and [[Koopa (species)]] under the Koopa Troopa section. However, right now, the infobox labels their parent species [[Koopa]] and they're not listed on [[Template:Koopa Troopas]] (despite [[Koopa Paratroopa]]s being listed). So, which is it? Are they Koopas or Koopa Troopas? {{User:Time Turner/sig}} 21:32, 2 August 2017 (EDT) | |||
:Both because Dry Bowser. Note the lack of Bony Beetle in the category, I was about to ask about that myself. {{User|Doc von Schmeltwick}} 20:43, 2 August 2017 (CT) | |||
::For convenience's sake, let's set aside any subspecies or individual characters. If we were looking only at Dry Bones, would it be a Koopa or a Koopa Troopa? To me, the obvious answer is that Dry Bones are derived species of Koopa Troopas (never mind the oddity of a necromanced skeleton being called a species), but perhaps there's something obvious that I'm missing. {{User:Time Turner/sig}} 22:13, 2 August 2017 (EDT) | |||
:::It would be considered a Troopa, yes. {{User|Doc von Schmeltwick}} 21:14, 2 August 2017 (CT) | |||
