Top: in the intro to the first mission of Bianco Hills in Super Mario Sunshine, Shadow Mario can be seen standing next to the Proto Piranha miniboss. He only appears in the intro; when Mario reaches the spot he is shown standing at, he is nowhere to be found.The entity seen in that intro is actually not Shadow Mario, but a Boo disguised as Shadow Mario. During gameplay, Boos disguised as Shadow Mario only appear in the seventh episode of Sirena Beach, however, here one of them is used as a stand-in for the real Shadow Mario during a cutscene. This can be verified by comparing the textures.Bottom left: the real Shadow Mario’s textures are darker and a more uniform color, with rounded areas of shading.Bottom right: when a Boo is disguised as Shadow Mario, it appears lighter, has more contrast, and shows characteristic thin lines on its texture.By comparing the two, the Shadow Mario from the intro in Bianco Hills is revealed to be a Boo. This is also verified by checking the internal files.Main Blog | Twitter | Patreon | Small Findings | Source: twitter.com user “Qbe_Root” -- source link
