In this invitation to the party, Super Mario Party introduces Special Dice Blocks for each character and allows you to ally up with other characters, combining your dice block powers. Who’s the best ally team in Super Mario Party? It’s a good thing you asked because this gamer mom is ready to break it down for you in my list of the Top 5 Super Mario Party Teams.
5. Mario + Bowser
Fantastic Frenemies or Forever Foes?
What’s Great About Mario + Bowser
- An iconic pair, these two have been dueling it out for decades. Yet, somehow, in SMP, they’re oddly excellent allies.
- Pair up Bowser’s power rolls with Mario’s ultra-reliable movement and own the board as the biggest baddie and best bro of them all.
- You’ll need to slay in the mini-games to make up for the downside of Bowser’s dice, but it’s not a terrible trade-off.
Mario + Bowser Details
- Mario rolls 1, 3, 3, 3, 5, 6
- Bowser rolls -3, -3, 1, 8, 9, 10
4. Koopa Troopa + Goomba
Baddies Unite!
What’s Great About Koopa Troopa + Goomba
This baddie duo scores you speed and scratch.
Gain extra coins with Goomba’s +2 rolls and get an occasional speed boost with the 10 that Koopa Troopa offers.
Even though they both feature relatively low solo numbers when they combo, you won’t scoff at the digits they roll.
Koopa Troopa + Goomba Details
Koopa Troopa rolls 1, 1, 2, 3, 3, 10
Goomba rolls +2, +2, 3, 4, 5, 6
3. Donkey Kong + Dry Bones
Best Unlockables Duo Goes to DK and Dry Bones!
What’s Great About Dry Bones + Donkey Kong
- These two unlockable characters in SMP are like a built-in boost of ally pair-up perfection. Once you manage to make their debut, Donkey Kong plus his fellow bonus character Dry Bones, make for a super stable allyship that can easily put you in the lead at chasing stars on the party boards.
- Donkey Kong has a powerful Special Dice Block that will boost your coin supply but might also leave you high and dry with its three 0 faces.
- That’s where Dry Bones comes in handy. With his dependable digits, this skeleton Koopa Troopa plus DK is an impeccable pair.
Dry Bones + Donkey Kong Details
- Dry Bones rolls 1, 1, 1, 6, 6, 6
- Donkey Kong rolls +5, 0, 0, 0, 10, 10
2. Yoshi + Monty Mole
Cute Couples! Yoshi and Monty Vs. Luigi and Peach
What’s Great About Yoshi + Monty
- Yoshi and Monty are probably the most adorable pair of allies on this list. And some of the most low-key, stealthy star stealers, too. That’s what snags them the second-place spot here.
- Neither one rolls spectacularly high. In fact, Yoshi’s dice block features a less than lucky 0 face.
- No worries, though. Monty makes up for it with his +1 coin bonus. Between the two, you’ll move plenty of spaces while earning the occasional pretty penny.
Yoshi + Monty Details
- Yoshi rolls 0, 1, 3, 3, 5, 7
- Monty rolls +1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
1. Hammer Bro. + Rosalina
Winner, Winner! Rosalina and Hammer Bro Celebrate Synchronicity
What’s Great About Hammer Bro. + Rosalina
- Hit the party as this unlikely pair for a beauty and the beast style romp around the game boards.
- Hammer Bro. isn’t just making it rain hammers, he’s also the only character who can net you a +3 roll.
- Rosalina has some of that tantalizing twinkle, too. Her dice block features not one, but two, +2 faces, meaning that even if you get behind in the mini-games, you can still snag stars.
Hammer Bro. + Rosalina Details
- Hammer Bro. rolls +3, 1, 1, 5, 5, 5
- Rosalina rolls +2, +2, 2, 3, 4, 8
