So what I plan on doing is managing this thread in which people may come to ask questions about the game and its contents without having to create a new thread each time. I will keep a record in this original post of all the information we accumulate from everyone's questions and answers, thus creating a compilation of knowledge in a sort of FAQ format!
So basically, if you would like to know something that isn't on the list, just ask! Either I or someone else will be happy to help.
And if you know of some useful information that isn't on the list, share your knowledge!
And lastly, if you come across any errors or think of any ideas for improvement, let me know!
ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS WITH SPOILER TAGS!!! Unless its something thats not considered a spoiler of course. You guys are normally good at this anyway so we shouldn't have any problems.
Alright guys, ask and answer away!
<Give this post a +1 if you have found it helpful! I'd like to see how helpful this stuff really is to you guys! Also anyone who contributes information gets an automatic +1 from me! >
SuperBoss Locations *Provided by Darkkefka*
Spoiler
Ultima Weapon:
Location in Kero Sewers. You need to jump on a boo to reach it.
Shiva:
This is no longer solo fight. She's in the Ice Cave down the pipe in the next to the last room. You can't go down the pipe until you beat the Frost Pirahna inside it. You win Shiva's Ring..which will come in handy against many of the Pokemon....
Ozma:
Same place..in the Lazy Shell Cloud. You know how to get there....Seed and Fertilizer. Hunt Shy ways and Anti-Shy Away.
Goddess:
She's still on Star Hill, but in a new spot.
Emerald Weapon:
Same place as before..in the sea in the small room.
Kaiser Dragon:
In the Volcano where Rubicante (Stumpet) once was.
Paragon:
This is actually a re-colored Ultima Weapon from FF6. He's at the end of the Via Infinito in Lands's End( AKA..re-colored Belome Temple)
Omega:
He's in the Factory. Now you need to fall from the Moving platforms where the Lil' Boos use to be to get to him. He's tough.
Yiazmat:
Same place as before...in the area that looks like Bandit's Way after you beat Yard. Watch out for Long Guis in this area too....
Penance:
He's been moved. He's now at the Hot springs. You can't fight him until you'e beaten the Axem Rangers.
??????:(Spolier)
A new Boss for Version 8. You'll run into her sooner or later. Located on Star Hill.....
Mysterious Girl:
This girl is tough! Located in the Forest Maze secret area. But you can't battle her until the above boss has been defeated...
Shinryu:
Naturally, he's hiding inside a chest! Which one? I'm not telling!!!! This is a long and hard fight. In the hard mode, make sure you have a dark matter/chaos grenade ready before the final blow.....
????:
The Ultimate Final Fantasy Boss located at the end of the FF Boss Rush. Some already know who it is, and some don't. I think the fight should be possible this time around. Good Luck, because this is the game's 2nd hardest opponent. You win the Paladin for victory.
--------------------------------------------
Lookout, because Pokemon have invaded the Mushroom Kingdom!! There are 13 of them in this hack.
Go to the Pokemon thread for more details
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Shadow Queen:
Everybody Knows she's in this game by now, but she is no longer the final boss of the boss rush. She's been moved to a new spot. But she's easy to find. As for the final boss in the Mario RPG Boss Rush, THAT honor now belongs too.........
??????:
I'm sorry, I can't spoil this boss yet. Just know that some of you will be pleased...and heart broken at the same time to be fighting this person.
If you lose, you'll need to do it all over again. So make a save state before trying. This is actually the 3rd hardest opponent in the entire game!! Good Luck!
Larxene:
Same place as before, in the sea. She no longer has her Desperation move from the past, and that saddens me greatly, but I simply didn't have enough space to make it again.
Magus and Schala:
They are still in Monstro Town.... But this time you need a Found Illusion to Open the Door. Don't worry...it's not consumed after.
?????????: THE NEW ULTIMATE BOSS!!!!!
Ok, I don't know what the hell I was smoking when I created this thing. And I don't know if victory is even possible. This boss can actually be challenge halfway in the game. Of course, if you fight it at that point, you'll be dead in a few seconds......but it's worth a peek. The sleeping man and the Master gives you clues on where to find this boss.

Continue along through the ship until you reach that spooky doppelganger of Mario that mirrors your every move. Off to the right along the "mirror" line is an invisible box, jump around until you hit it (you may have to run around and jump a little bit to get the Mario clone out of synch with you first). Hitting this invisible switch box will make the hidden chest appear on the other side. Jump from on top of the fake Mario's head to reach it. (This might be a little tricky to get him to cooperate and line up correctly)
Lands End
Chest 41: Life Shroom Shake x3
In the very first area when entering lands end, use the funny looking cannon to shoot yourself onto the yellow block that's going up and down ( or overshoot the block and go back and get on it). The chest is just to the north of the platform, so jump in that direction when the yellow block is at its highest point to reach it.
Chest 42: Kerocola x3
This one is a little difficult to explain in words so bear with me. Go to the next room after chest 41 and use the cannon to shoot yourself onto the cliff and spook up some dogs. Jump out of the little hole you shot yourself into and then jump at the front edge of the pit to make another yellow block appear. After that, go back to the cannon and a well timed shot will land you right on top of the block. It will swing you around to get an unhidden chest, then jump onto the very top part of the mountain hill thing. Chest is in the left most corner up here.
Chest 43: Frog Coin
Journey on past the shooting lizards spectacle to the area after that with some flowers and wasps. Go to the right of the rocky hill to find three blue flowers along the right wall. Chest is in the middle between the second and third flower.
Chest 44: Kerocola x3
Progress through lands end until you get to the underground section and keep going until you encounter a massive clusterf%ck of lizards that you use the star in the rooms chest to plow your way through. So do some star powered plowing and go to the next room. Go left a bit and you will see 4 crates stacked into a square with a blue mushroom bush next to it (cause we all know that mushrooms grow from bushes). The chest is just to the left of the second crate so hop on the boxes and jump to reach it. (You will be jumping from the box's corner not the edge i.e. directly West vs. Northwest).
Monstro Town
Chest 45: Kerocola x3
Go into MonsterMama's house (I shouldn't need to tell you this but her house is the left most door in the town). The chest is above the bookshelf in the top corner of the room.
Chest 46: Life Shroom Shake x3
Enter the house next to MonsterMama's place with the shaman and the pirana plant. The chest is pretty much in the dead center of the room. You will need to jump from the shamans head in order to reach it though.
Chest 47: Frog Coin
Go into the tiny room with the exit door of Monstro town. Chest is in the bottom left corner behind the bush.
Bean Valley
Chest 48: Frog Coin
Right when you enter the level take the pipe on the right. Chest is in the left corner of that tiny clearing.
Chest 49: Kerocola x2
Continue along until you get to the room with 5 pipes covered with piranha plants and an anti shy fly watering them. Let the shy fly water the plants until he waters the plant on top of the right most pipe (it's the only pipe that's completely surrounded by the light brown colored ground). Kill the plant, go down the pipe, and then walk around the little path to the end. The chest is one square away from the left, right, and bottom wall, so in the middle of the end of the walk way.
Nimbus Land
Chest 50: Frog Coin
Go into the item shop and climb the pile of boxes behind the clerk. Of the two boxes at the very top, stand on the left one and jump off in the direction of the clerk to reach the chest.
Chest 51: Life Shroom Shake x3
Go into the house in the bottom right corner of the town. Chest is near the middle of the room, three squares in front of the stove. You will need to jump from the guys head to reach it.
Chest 52: Frog Coin
Go into the palace and continue along until you reach the room with three doors in a line. Chest is in the top left corner right next to a bird cage.
Chest 53: Frog Coin
From the room with chest #52, go through the left door, and then proceed through the next door after that. Go around the corner and walk down the stairs, the chest is one square before the exit to the room.
Chest 54: Frog Coin
In the same room as chest #53. Start from where the last chest was, and walk left along the bottom wall while trying to walk into it slightly, you will soon pass into an invisible path. Walk down the path until you hit the end, then turn left and walk a few more squares until you can't go any further and jump. Ta da!
Chest 55: Frog Coin
Go back to the room where chest #52 was, and go through the middle door this time (you will need the key you get from the guy in the room right after chest 53&54s room). Fight birdo to get another key and go into the next room. You will see an unhidden chest to the right of this rooms exit, and the hidden chest is directly above it.
Chest 56: Hyper M. Guard
Go to the very end of the palace on to the tiny ledge you fall off of. Chest is on the right tile. (You will need to come back for this one since Mario runs right off the edge the first time you come here.)
Barrel Volcano
Chest 57: Life Shroom Shake x3
Okay this one is hard to describe since the rooms before and after are pretty unremarkable and don't have any good landmarks I can lead you from... The only way I can describe it is to go through the volcano until you reach a room that has a save point and a chest with a star in it (on the top of a little hill that you climb up). From there, go into the next room, and then continue into the next room after that, this is the room with the hidden chest. Climb the stairs and the chest is on the very top platform right on the edge of the "staircase".
Bowser's Keep
Chest 58: Fire Claws
This one was a real bitch to find. Go through the castle until you get to the room full of lava with the two platforms that rotate around one another. Make your way over to the far top left corner. The chest is in this corner, 3 squares from the left wall, and 4 squares from the right wall. Good luck, DK is so evil for this one. (Shout out to Faroth for his hint to which corner it was in, NEVER would have found it without that info, thank you.)
Palace of Shadow
Chest 59: Kerocola x3
In the room right before the room where shadow queen is. Chest is right by the exit of the room in the bottom corner of the square platform your on, one square back from the tip of the corner.
The Gate
Chest 60: Found Illusion
Go through until you get to a small room with an unhidden chest and a save box. The hidden chest is in the left corner.
Congratulations!! You have found every hidden chest in the game! Now go back to Monstro town and talk to the shaman and he will give you the lazy armor! Used to be a second paladin armor but this was changed. Lazy shell armor is still one of the best armors in the game however. It has high defense but low attack and mg attack, so a good character to use it is geno with his geno whirl that does 9999 regardless of his stats.

Chest 2: life shroom shake x3
to the left of the pipe entrance to lake guardian temple thingy

Booster Tower

Chest 28: Life Shroom Shake x3
Continue through the tower until you reach the room that has those red curtains that turns you into 8bit Mario when you go behind them. Chest is in the far left corner on the upper platform.
Chest 29: Frog Coin
Progress through the tower until you reach a seesaw with a bomb omb (NOT the one near the beginning that boosts you to an unhidden chest). Use the seesaw to bounce up to the next area. Once you're there, the chest is in the far left corner.
Chest 30: Kerocola x3
Continue through the tower until you get to the room with a bunch of galaxy coins with trapped tiles that you encounter those fireball enemies from (DK is so evil for reintroducing those f*%kers). Get the key and go into the locked door. Chest is in the left corner.

At the very beginning of the sunken ship, go through the left door this time. Chest is above a barrel in the top corner of room.
Chest 40: Healing Spring
Continue along through the ship until you reach that spooky doppelganger of Mario that mirrors your every move. Off to the right along the "mirror" line is an invisible box, jump around until you hit it (you may have to run around and jump a little bit to get the Mario clone out of synch with you first). Hitting this invisible switch box will make the hidden chest appear on the other side. Jump from on top of the fake Mario's head to reach it. (This might be a little tricky to get him to cooperate and line up correctly)
Lands End
Chest 41: Life Shroom Shake x3
In the very first area when entering lands end, use the funny looking cannon to shoot yourself onto the yellow block that's going up and down ( or overshoot the block and go back and get on it). The chest is just to the north of the platform, so jump in that direction when the yellow block is at its highest point to reach it.
Chest 42: Kerocola x3
This one is a little difficult to explain in words so bear with me. Go to the next room after chest 41 and use the cannon to shoot yourself onto the cliff and spook up some dogs. Jump out of the little hole you shot yourself into and then jump at the front edge of the pit to make another yellow block appear. After that, go back to the cannon and a well timed shot will land you right on top of the block. It will swing you around to get an unhidden chest, then jump onto the very top part of the mountain hill thing. Chest is in the left most corner up here.
Chest 43: Frog Coin
Journey on past the shooting lizards spectacle to the area after that with some flowers and wasps. Go to the right of the rocky hill to find three blue flowers along the right wall. Chest is in the middle between the second and third flower.
Chest 44: Kerocola x3
Progress through lands end until you get to the underground section and keep going until you encounter a massive clusterf%ck of lizards that you use the star in the rooms chest to plow your way through. So do some star powered plowing and go to the next room. Go left a bit and you will see 4 crates stacked into a square with a blue mushroom bush next to it (cause we all know that mushrooms grow from bushes). The chest is just to the left of the second crate so hop on the boxes and jump to reach it. (You will be jumping from the box's corner not the edge i.e. directly West vs. Northwest).
Monstro Town
Chest 45: Kerocola x3
Go into MonsterMama's house (I shouldn't need to tell you this but her house is the left most door in the town). The chest is above the bookshelf in the top corner of the room.
Chest 46: Life Shroom Shake x3
Enter the house next to MonsterMama's place with the shaman and the pirana plant. The chest is pretty much in the dead center of the room. You will need to jump from the shamans head in order to reach it though.
Chest 47: Frog Coin
Go into the tiny room with the exit door of Monstro town. Chest is in the bottom left corner behind the bush.

Chest 49: Kerocola x2
Continue along until you get to the room with 5 pipes covered with piranha plants and an anti shy fly watering them. Let the shy fly water the plants until he waters the plant on top of the right most pipe (it's the only pipe that's completely surrounded by the light brown colored ground). Kill the plant, go down the pipe, and then walk around the little path to the end. The chest is one square away from the left, right, and bottom wall, so in the middle of the end of the walk way.
Nimbus Land
Chest 50: Frog Coin
Go into the item shop and climb the pile of boxes behind the clerk. Of the two boxes at the very top, stand on the left one and jump off in the direction of the clerk to reach the chest.
Chest 51: Life Shroom Shake x3
Go into the house in the bottom right corner of the town. Chest is near the middle of the room, three squares in front of the stove. You will need to jump from the guys head to reach it.

Chest 53: Frog Coin
From the room with chest #52, go through the left door, and then proceed through the next door after that. Go around the corner and walk down the stairs, the chest is one square before the exit to the room.
Chest 54: Frog Coin
In the same room as chest #53. Start from where the last chest was, and walk left along the bottom wall while trying to walk into it slightly, you will soon pass into an invisible path. Walk down the path until you hit the end, then turn left and walk a few more squares until you can't go any further and jump. Ta da!
Chest 55: Frog Coin
Go back to the room where chest #52 was, and go through the middle door this time (you will need the key you get from the guy in the room right after chest 53&54s room). Fight birdo to get another key and go into the next room. You will see an unhidden chest to the right of this rooms exit, and the hidden chest is directly above it.
Chest 56: Hyper M. Guard
Go to the very end of the palace on to the tiny ledge you fall off of. Chest is on the right tile. (You will need to come back for this one since Mario runs right off the edge the first time you come here.)
Barrel Volcano
Chest 57: Life Shroom Shake x3
Okay this one is hard to describe since the rooms before and after are pretty unremarkable and don't have any good landmarks I can lead you from... The only way I can describe it is to go through the volcano until you reach a room that has a save point and a chest with a star in it (on the top of a little hill that you climb up). From there, go into the next room, and then continue into the next room after that, this is the room with the hidden chest. Climb the stairs and the chest is on the very top platform right on the edge of the "staircase".
Bowser's Keep
Chest 58: Fire Claws
This one was a real bitch to find. Go through the castle until you get to the room full of lava with the two platforms that rotate around one another. Make your way over to the far top left corner. The chest is in this corner, 3 squares from the left wall, and 4 squares from the right wall. Good luck, DK is so evil for this one. (Shout out to Faroth for his hint to which corner it was in, NEVER would have found it without that info, thank you.)
Palace of Shadow
Chest 59: Kerocola x3
In the room right before the room where shadow queen is. Chest is right by the exit of the room in the bottom corner of the square platform your on, one square back from the tip of the corner.
The Gate
Chest 60: Found Illusion
Go through until you get to a small room with an unhidden chest and a save box. The hidden chest is in the left corner.
Congratulations!! You have found every hidden chest in the game! Now go back to Monstro town and talk to the shaman and he will give you the lazy armor! Used to be a second paladin armor but this was changed. Lazy shell armor is still one of the best armors in the game however. It has high defense but low attack and mg attack, so a good character to use it is geno with his geno whirl that does 9999 regardless of his stats.
