You feel great. More powerful than ever, actually.
You receive a Fire Flower which deals 3 fire damage to all enemies. Neat. You pocket that in your Usable Items Inventory.
You make sure to pick up one of those Spiked Gloomba Hats to see if there's anything you can do with it. You can't find any practical applications right now, but you'll keep it in your Key Items Inventory.
You track down those Bob-ombs after the fight and ask what the big deal was, why they didn't help you.
"Oh! We were just watching. We know we don't have what it takes to hunt the Star Spirits, but with Princess Peach and Doctor Mario and all these other celebrities chasing them down, it's become a sort of spectacle to watch for the citizenry. We were rooting for you the whole time, swear!" They lie as they dash away.
What do you do?
>Chase down the big pink Bob-ombs and teach them respect! (Fight x2 Bulky Bob-ombs)
>Fight 2 more Gloombas while you're in Musty Meadows so you can level up again real quick! (Fight x2 Spiked Gloombas)
>Continue through the Musty Meadow Pass to Mt. Rugged. (QM rolls for a different encounter)
>Write in - ???
Also, pick one of these for Bowser:
>+5 to HP (More health)
>+5 to FP (Resource for advanced moves)
>+3 to BP (Grants powerful abilities and passive skills)
