To rematch Belome, you need to clear the game to the ending once and then stay at the suite in the Marrymore hotel.

Belome Rematch Strategy and Countermeasures

Fear is effective

Fear status is effective against Belome, so Bowser's "Terrorize" is effective. It increases damage dealt and reduces damage taken, making the fight easier.

Switch to other characters after inflicting Fear

Bowser is troublesome if copied. He has high HP and takes time to defeat, so switch characters after inflicting Fear.

Prepare for Sleep status

Belome has multiple attack patterns that inflict Sleep status, so counter with equipment that prevents sleep.

Recommended Anti-Sleep Equipment

Equipment	How to Obtain
Safety Ring	Treasure chest in Sunken Ship's hidden room
Wake Up Pin	Obtained from a treasure chest in the Sunken Ship
Alert Scarf	Purchase in Rose Town or Ripple Town
Lazy Shell	After defeating Valentina, talk to the mouse on the 2nd floor of a house in Monstrotown, then give the "Seed" and "Fertilizer" to the planter in Rose Town, and obtain it from the treasure chest at the end of the beanstalk that appears.
Super Suit	After achieving 100 Super Jumps, talk to the Chow in the house on the 2nd floor of Monstrotown.

Inflicting Silence can also counter Sleep

Silence is effective against Belome, so you can counter Sleep with Peach's "Mute". However, note that it cannot coexist with Fear status.

Weak to Thunder

Belome is weak to Thunder. Mallow's 'Thunderbolt' deals massive damage.

Beware of barriers when fake characters appear

In the Belome rematch, he deploys a barrier when fake characters appear. Defeating the fake character will remove the barrier, so prioritize defeating the fake characters.

Barrier effects differ for each character

The type of attacks nullified by the barrier differs for each fake character. Depending on the barrier's effect, it may be fine to ignore it.

Fake Character	Barrier Effect
Mario	- Normal attacks nullified - Jump attacks nullified
Mallow	- Normal attacks nullified - Thunder attribute attacks nullified
Geno	- Normal attacks nullified - Fire attribute attacks nullified
Bowser	- Normal attacks nullified - Non-elemental attacks nullified
Peach	- Normal attacks nullified - Ice attribute attacks nullified

Recommended Party and Equipment

Recommended Party

Belome is weak to Thunder, so Mallow's "Thunderbolt" is effective. Also, since Fear status is effective, start with Bowser in the party to inflict Fear, then switch to the party above to fight.

Flavor Text

Belome (Sore Throat)

1. 

   My throat's all tingly...
   I'm not happy at all~.

   Long before Frogfucius was called Sage by everyone...
   since he was just a young, newly transformed frog,
   Belome lived in Belome Temple.

Fake Mario (Strong)

1. 

   !

   Only this Fake Mario, I really don't know
   what he's thinking. If only he'd convey his thoughts with gestures or something.

Fake Mallow (Strong)

1. 

   The bathroom at night is scary~.

   This monster's belt also has 'Mallow' written on it,
   so probably even Frogfucius wouldn't be able to tell him from the real one.

Fake Geno (Strong)

1. 

   Star Pieces and stuff, I don't really care about them!

   Seeing as he doesn't try to use 'Geno Boost' to strengthen allies,
   it seems he couldn't copy the heart that cares for comrades.

Fake Bowser (Strong)

1. 

   Gahahahaha!

   This Fake Bowser too, as usual,
   will probably kidnap Fake Peach, but Fake Mario
   has no interest in that at all.

Fake Peach (Strong)

1. 

   Hey Chancellor,
   don't you think I'm still beautiful~~?

   If it can be copied this perfectly like the real thing,
   then surely the shoes, ring, brooch, and crown
   must also be exactly like the real ones.
