History[edit]
Mario andLuigi arrive on Twistee Island seeking Maykit, although they cannot reach her nor the island's lighthouse because theTwisten Sprout has withered up. In the island's plaza, they findDyode lying on the floor because he has no hair wax. Mario and Luigi findSpiralia deep in the woods and help her get back to her shop while avoidingbugs. Spiralia gives Mario and Luigi hair wax which they give to Dyode who comes out of his slump. Mario and Luigidance with Dyode andEmmit, which causes the Twisten Sprout to rise and allow Mario and Luigi to reach Maykit and the lighthouse.
FollowingBowser's attack on Shipshape Island, Twistee Island gets disconnected and drifts in theGulchrock Sea along withHeatfreeze Island. While Twistee Island is drifting, theZok Troops infect the island's residents and monsters withGlohm. If Twistee Island is visited first, Mario and Luigi must rescue island residents from Glohmed monsters and Zok Troopers. If Twistee Island is visited second, Mario and Luigi discover that too many island residents have been Glohmed. Regardless, the Twisten Sprout has withered again and Mario and Luigi dance with Dyode and Emmit again to revive it and reach the lighthouse.
While Mario and Luigi gatherBonds to reach theSoli-Tree, Mario and Luigi return to Twistee Island to collect a Bond from Dyode and Emmit. Mario and Luigi dance with Dyode and Emmit once again, then follow them on a tour withMerrygo Island being their next stop.
