Zombone is the undead version of the Czar Dragon and a boss who appears in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars.

In Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars

Zombone is fought in Barrel Volcano, right after he is defeated in his original Czar Dragon form, upon which Zombone rises back out of the lava as a living skeleton.

Battle

Zombone posses many strong attacks that can inflict damage to all of Mario's party. Its signature attack, Boulder, can deal the highest damage, effectively replacing the Czar Dragon's Water Blast.

Strategy

Zomebone actually possess two weak points: Thunder and Jump. This means that Mario's Jump moves and Mallow's Thunderbolt is useful here. Mallow is useful from the start since the Czar Dragon's weak point was Ice which Snowy comes in handy. Princess Toadstool should heal when necessary.

Trivia

• Zombone is similar to two latter bosses in the Mario games:
  • Bonetail from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door in that both of them are skeletal dragons.
  • Dry Bowser from New Super Mario Bros. in that both of them had an original form until falling out the lava and coming back as a living skeleton.
