'''Rubber Band''', '''The Elastic Entertainer''', is a member of the [[Legion of Stationery]] who guards the end of the blue [[streamer]] and the boss of [[Big Sho' Theater]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]''. Unlike the other Legion of Stationery members, while Rubber Band itself is a singular large yellow rubber band with [[King Olly]]'s insignia on it, it initially appears to be a vague humanoid entirely composed out of small rubber bands, mostly yellow, with blue for its large joints, and black for its | '''Rubber Band''', '''The Elastic Entertainer''', is a member of the [[Legion of Stationery]] who guards the end of the blue [[streamer]] and the boss of [[Big Sho' Theater]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]''. Unlike the other Legion of Stationery members, while Rubber Band itself is a singular large yellow rubber band with [[King Olly]]'s insignia on it, it initially appears to be a vague humanoid entirely composed out of small rubber bands, mostly yellow, with blue for its large joints, and black for its hands, legs, and the top of its head, with the actual Rubber Band on the inside creating the frame. The [[Toad (species)|Toad]]s in the audience appear to be unnerved by its appearance, as evidenced by their screaming when it first appears, and the unique quotes of the battle including some quote indicating them being scared. | ||

After each act, Rubber Band yells from offscreen that the act was supposed to defeat Mario. Once the show reaches the fourth and final floor, holding the spool for the blue streamer, Mario is invited onstage as the star of the show, but once he gets on stage, Rubber Band objects, claiming it was the star, and appears from a stage lift, performing a short song and dance routine, before confronting Mario and [[Olivia]] and battling them. | ||
After being defeated, a spotlight | After being defeated, a spotlight appears over Rubber Band as it dramatically yells its final words, yelling why it had to be defeated, claiming to want to make the theater grand, and finally, accepting defeat, before falling over and exploding, destroying the bands trapping the Toads and releasing a [[Magic Circle]] that Mario then uses to destroy the streamer. | ||

Prior to Mario moving, Rubber Band uses Bumper Bands, flinging rubber bands from its body to replace most, if not all of the up and down panels on the board with rubber bands pointing in the same direction. These rubber bands, when touched, send Mario one space in the direction the band points, Mario afterwards moving in the same direction he was traveling, while the band is crumpled. If Mario walks over a crumpled rubber band, he trips and wastes his turn. | Prior to Mario moving, Rubber Band uses Bumper Bands, flinging rubber bands from its body to replace most, if not all of the up and down panels on the board with rubber bands pointing in the same direction.

Rubber Band is impervious to normal attacks; while they will damage it, the rubber bands they will | Rubber Band is impervious to normal attacks; while they will damage it, the rubber bands they will deplete from his body will simply be pulled back to the boss to heal it when it begins its turn with the move Pullback/Quick Pullback, along with the uncrumpled Bumper Bands. Instead Mario must use the [[1,000-Fold Arms]] to grab as many bands from the top of its head as he can, pull them back as far as he can, and release, causing the lost rubber bands to fall beyond the reach of Pullback/Quick Pullback. The closer Mario is to the boss, the more damage he can do with a single attack - if Mario uses the 1,000-Fold Arms from one of the back two rows, it will deal just 1 damage. The inner two rows can deal 20-40 damage when using and activating the arms. | ||
On Rubber Band's turn, it will attempt to trap Mario in a Rubber Bind, launching three unrecoverable rubber bands at Mario at different speeds and in either a straight or arced trajectory, which, if not blocked, deal 6-7 damage and cause him to be tied up, which renders him unable to block the remaining bands and wastes his next turn, after which Rubber Band will use Trapped Snapback, dealing 18 damage to Mario, who is only able to jump to dodge. | On Rubber Band's turn, it will attempt to trap Mario in a Rubber Bind, launching three unrecoverable rubber bands at Mario at different speeds and in either a straight or arced trajectory, which, if not blocked, deal 6-7 damage and cause him to be tied up, which renders him unable to block the remaining bands and wastes his next turn, after which Rubber Band will use Trapped Snapback, dealing 18 damage to Mario, who is only able to jump to dodge. | ||
