Boo, Goo, Bones, and Kipp are four minor characters in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. They are a part of Dr. Topper's final question in one of his two puzzle courses of the Six-Door Chamber in Bowser's Keep. They are a High Boo, a Goomba, a Vomer, and a Cheep Cheep, respectively, and Dr. Topper says the four had taken part in a triathlon together beforehand. The events were swimming, cycling, and a marathon. Dr. Topper challenges Mario to deduce which of the four finished in each place, with each giving a single hint. The character who gives each hint is randomized on each run of the puzzle course.
While Mario can attempt to deduce the final rankings from the group members' clues, each clue directly corresponds to a member's final placement. In the Super NES release, the clues and the placement of who gives them are as follows:
- "I outrode <x> on my bike, and <x> was never able to pass me!"
- "I fell into 4th place during the bike race, but finally ended up in the same place as I did in the swimming event."
- "I placed the same in the swimming and cycling events, but 2 others beat me in the marathon."
- "I came in 3rd for swimming..."
In the Nintendo Switch remake, the clues are adjusted to be more helpful. The character who says they came in third for swimming adds they did not place any better in events after that, and the character who comments on outriding another on their bike states they outdid that character in both the cycling event and the final rankings. The final rankings relative to the clues provided are identical.
