[[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Princess Peach]], [[Princess Daisy]], [[Yellow Toad and Blue Toad|Yellow Toad]], [[Yellow Toad and Blue Toad|Blue Toad]], and [[Toadette]] are invited to the [[Flower Kingdom]], a neighbor to the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] ruled by [[Prince Florian]]. Florian shows off the [[Wonder Flower]] to his visitors, when suddenly, [[Bowser]], [[Bowser Jr.]], and [[Kamek]] arrive. Bowser takes hold of the Wonder Flower, merging him, his [[Koopa Clown Car]], and Florian's castle, the [[Flower Castle]], to become [[Castle Bowser]]; he proceeds to spread havoc across the entire kingdom, including trapping the kingdom's inhabitants, the [[Poplin]]s, in their homes. Not wanting to let this stand, Mario and company eagerly decide to help save the Flower Kingdom, and set off with Florian to stop Bowser's plans once again. The group is closely followed by four [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]s and [[Nabbit]]. | [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Princess Peach]], [[Princess Daisy]], [[Yellow Toad and Blue Toad|Yellow Toad]], [[Yellow Toad and Blue Toad|Blue Toad]], and [[Toadette]] are invited to the [[Flower Kingdom]], a neighbor to the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] ruled by [[Prince Florian]].
