Darkle is a dark power used by Grape in Princess Peach: Showtime! It is the antithesis to Stella's Sparkle. Its name is a portmanteau of "dark" and "Sparkle." This power is also used by a group of Grape's minions called Darkle Bosses that must be defeated at the end of a floor. There are a total of four of them:
| Image | Name | Floor |

Disco Wing | 1F |
 |
Light Fang | 2F |
 |
Purrjector Cat | 3F |
 |
Spotlion | 4F |
Battles[edit]
They are fought once each during the maingame. Defeating them will allow Peach to go up to the next floor.
In the postgame, they can be re-fought by heading up to paintings that have appeared between the two upper stairs on the floors they were originally fought in. Those re-fights are mandatory for 100% completion, as up to three Sparkle Gems per Darkle Boss is given for fulfilling specific criteria while beating the Darkle Bosses in re-fights.
