It is a bestiary listing the enemies and bosses the player has encountered in their adventure, displaying a general listing of their stats, item drops, and a short description for them. The player can also view an enemy's thought with {{button|switch|X}}, and display their battle animations with {{button|switch|Y}}. Unlike bestiaries in other role-playing games such as the ''{{wp|Final Fantasy}}'' series, the Monster List does not show any more specific stats for an enemy, such as attack power, resistances, or currency dropped. There is a total of 235 entries in the Monster List. | ||
When the player encounters an enemy in battle but has not yet analyzed their weaknesses with Thought Peek, their weaknesses appear as "?" symbols in their Monster List entry until they do so. The player completes an enemy's Monster List entry when their thought is analyzed, marked by a green checkmark next to its name. | When the player encounters an enemy in battle but has not yet analyzed their weaknesses with [[Thought Peek]], their weaknesses appear as "?" symbols in their Monster List entry until they do so.

The player can purchase completed Monster List entries from the Monster List Agent, a hidden blond [[Toad (species)|mushroom person]] with a green vest<ref>{{cite|author=Shesez|date=December 1, 2023|title=[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oy7woRyR1Ds&t=173s Out of Bounds Secrets <nowiki>|</nowiki> Super Mario RPG Remake - Boundary Break]|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=March 9, 2024}}</ref> in the second area of [[Booster Pass]], for three [[Frog Coin]]s each. For enemies encountered before Mallow joins Mario's party, their entries are given for free. The agent provides write-ups only for enemies the player has encountered, whether they have defeated them or not, however clearing the game allows for the agent to provide entries for the ones the player missed before then, with the exceptions of [[Jagger]], [[Jinx]], and [[Culex]] whose entries are displayed as "It's been sealed" if they were not fought. Clearing the minigames in which [[Booster]] and [[Dodo]] are involved automatically adds their entries to the Monster List. For [[Cloaker]] and [[Domino]], the bosses the player would not be able to fight automatically have their entries added as well. | The player can purchase completed Monster List entries from the Monster List Agent, a hidden blond [[Toad (species)|mushroom person]] with a green vest<ref>{{cite|author=Shesez|date=December 1, 2023|title=[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oy7woRyR1Ds&t=173s Out of Bounds Secrets <nowiki>|</nowiki> Super Mario RPG Remake - Boundary Break]|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=March 9, 2024}}</ref> in the second area of [[Booster Pass]], for three [[Frog Coin]]s each.
