Follow this guide to defeat Shadow Mario in Episode 7 of Sirena Beach in Super Mario Sunshine and grab your Shine Sprite. Learn his patterns and how to win!
Alright, so Episode 7 of Sirena Beach is here, and guess who's back? Yep, it's Shadow Mario causing trouble again! This mission kicks off after you've cleared Episode 4 in Pinna Park and dealt with him in Delfino Plaza. To get started, head to the hotel and chat with the Manager – they'll let you into the mission area.
So, Shadow Mario's back and making a mess at Sirena Beach. Your main goal here is pretty straightforward: keep up with him and blast him with FLUDD. You can actually get some hits in right at the start. He'll bolt for the stairs and head to the top floor, pausing to try and trick you with a Boo. After that, he'll dash into the left room, then move towards the room next to the sealed pool area. Eventually, he'll make his way into that sealed pool room. To get there, you'll need to navigate the attic through the top-left room and then Ground Pound the floor tile in the southeast part of the attic to drop down.
Once you're in that room, he'll drop down to the floor below and start the cycle all over again. Just keep spraying him with FLUDD, dodge those Boo disguises he throws at you, and keep the pressure on. Before you know it, Shadow Mario will go down for the count, and you'll snag another Shine Sprite!
