In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'', Mechawfuls are found in [[Peach's Castle Garden]]. They can attack by flying towards one of the Mario Bros. and attempt to hit him with its fist. The player must [[hammer]] the Mechawful multiple times to prevent damage. An alternate attack used by the Mechawful is to fall from the air and land on the player. It is possible to predict which attack the Mechawful will use by watching its movement on the top screen of the game. If the Mechawful flies out of view, then it is preparing to land on its target. The dust marks which appear will also reveal which bro. is the target of the Mechawful's attack. Mario and Luigi must hit it with a hammer to deflect it. This will send the Mechawful flying towards and damaging other enemies in the match, if any.
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'', Mechawfuls are found in [[Peach's Castle Garden]]. They can attack by landing in front of one of the Mario Bros. or Bowser and attempt to hit them with its fist. The player must [[hammer]] or [[Punch]] the Mechawful to trigger a roulette-type action. Once the roulette is activated, the Mechawful's chest will light up and eyes will cycle through the colors yellow, blue, and red. Attacking it again will cause the roulette to stop.  
 
As [[Bowser]], the player must quickly duck to avoid the Mechawful's attack. Alternatively, the Mechawful will rise to the top screen and land in front of [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], or Bowser. Failure to attack it immediately will cause the Mechawful to punch its target. Immediately after landing, the bros. must hit it with a hammer, or Bowser must punch it, to trigger a roulette-type action. Once the roulette is activated, the Mechawful's chest will light up and eyes will cycle through the colors yellow, blue, and red. Attacking it again will cause the roulette to stop.

*If yellow, the Mechawful will use a counterattack.  
*If red, the Mechawful will self-destruct, harming the player. It will only award [[Experience Point|experience]] and [[coin]]s for defeating the head of the robot (not the rest of the body) at the end of the battle. It may also cause the player to become [[dizzy]].

An alternate attack used by the Mechawful is to fly straight up and out of the screen, landing directly on the player from above. The Bros. can knock this attack away with the hammer, with a dust cloud signifying what Bro. is being targeted. Bowser must hold down his [[Shell defense]] until the Mechawful becomes exhausted and falls onto the floor.


When defeated, the head detaches from the body and will either fly away, attack, or summon a new body on the next turn. Bowser can inhale the head, preventing the Mechawful from reassembling its body. Mario and Luigi can then fight the head of the Mechawful inside Bowser. Occasionally, the head is destroyed with the body when the Mechawful has self-destructed, or when it is destroyed as a result of a counter-attack.
When defeated, the '''Mechawful Head'''<ref>Browne, Catherine. ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 167.</ref> detaches from the body and will either fly away, attack, or summon a new body on the next turn. Bowser can inhale the head, preventing the Mechawful from reassembling its body. Mario and Luigi can then fight the head of the Mechawful inside Bowser. As the Bros, the head attacks by flying over one of the Bros. and falling straight down, which can be countered with the hammer. Occasionally, the head is destroyed with the body when the Mechawful has self-destructed, or when it is destroyed as a result of a counter-attack.
 
The Mechawful will only award [[Experience Point|experience]] and [[coin]]s for defeating the head of the robot (not the rest of the body) at the end of the battle. It may also cause the player to become [[dizzy]].


Like most other large enemies, Bowser can use the [[Vacuum Block]] to inhale a [[Blitty]] from Mechawfuls. Mechawfuls also appear in the battle against [[Super Peach's Castle of Fury]], where they are used in an attack along with a big yellow variant. Also, a dark blue variant called the [[Dark Mechawful]] can be battled by Bowser.
