Boss 1: Baby Bowser

The Baby Bowser will pound the ground towards Yoshi, creating a shockwave to attack. When it lands, you should also pound the ground at the same moment to create a shockwave and hit it. If the timing is too late, the Baby Bowser avoids it with a jump. After three hits, the boss is defeated, and the battle with Big Baby Bowser will begin.

Boss 2: Big Baby Bowser

First, rocks will fall where the arrow appears, so move away from that spot. Once the rocks stop falling, a balloon carrying a giant egg will fly in the stage. Throw the egg at Bowser's face to deal damage. The flames Bowser spits will fly in a straight line from his mouth, so you can avoid them by moving right after they're launched. After dealing three hits, rocks will fall again, making the platform even narrower. Deal four more hits to defeat him, and the ending will begin.
