| 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.

| :Dry Bones' trophy explains that it was learned from Kamek. {{User:Twentytwofiftyseven/sig|}} 20:26, 18 March 2009 (EDT)

|
| |
| 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}}

| == Excuse me ==
| |
|
| |
| 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.

| 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)

| == 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.

| 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)
