Sheets for "Dark" Enemies from Super Paper Mario

The ultimate challenge in Super Paper Mario, its second Pit of 100 Trials (located in Flopside, the flipside of the hub world called Flipside), contained nothing but dark shadow copies of enemies that were all stronger than the normal versions. The boss at the bottom, Shadoo, manifested as shadow copies of the player characters themselves—Mario, Peach, Bowser, and Luigi. It's possible that, like with the Plasm Wraith in Pikmin 3, all of the shadow enemies are actually just extensions of Shadoo himself rather than independent entities, but this is unclear. At any rate, while visually monotonous, the Dark enemies can come in handy in Arpeggio, where players are generally stronger and the regular Mario enemies might not provide enough of a challenge. This section includes Dark versions of regular Mario enemies as well as of enemies who only appeared in Super Paper Mario; in the latter case, the stats on these sheets are the same as those in the game, but for the Dark regular Mario enemies, I've altered some of them to better play off of their normal counterparts' Arpeggio sheets, and I've even created Dark sheets for some enemies who didn't actually appear in SPM.

Rather awkwardly, in some cases "Dark" appears twice in an enemy's name, for example the Dark Dark Boo. This was because there was already such a thing as a Dark Boo, but it was purple rather than being a black shadow, so the Super Paper Mario team (or maybe just the English translators) went ahead and made a dark version of the Dark Boo called a Dark Dark Boo. Because I'm the type to actually find this funny, I've actually increased incidences of this, so you'll see a number of enemies named that way.
