Speardovich

Speardovich (originally mistranslated as “Yardovich”) is an officer of the Smithy Gang who is sent to Seaside Town from the Forest Maze, the guardian of the fourth Star Piece, and a major antagonist and boss in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars and its Nintendo Switch remake Super Mario RPG.
==Profile==
===Physical description===
Speardovich appears to be made completely of metal. He also wears a red cape and carries a spear.
==In Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars==
Speardovich was first seen posing as the Elder of Seaside Town and tricks Mario into getting the Star Piece found in the Sea. Speardovich, along with his clones, force Mario into giving up the Star Piece and they attempt to get away. However, Speardovich doesn't see the Axem Rangers with the Blade so he decided to swim away even though he might rust. However, he was stopped by Jonathan Jones who tells him that Mario earned the Star Piece fair and square. Trapped, Speardovich has no choice but to fight Mario and his team in battle. After he was defeated, Speardovich disappears, and Mario earns another Star Piece.
===Battle===
Speardovich has many attacks at his disposal. First, he will usually create a clone which Mario and his team must figure out what to hit. Speardovich also has the deadly Water Blast move which can cause major damage to all of Mario's team.
Because he is entirely made out of metal, Speardovich has a major weakness to Thunder-based attacks. Mallow and his Thunderbolt move should be used in this battle. There are two ways to tell which is the clone and which is the real Speardovich. The clone has much lower defense than Speardovich so one will know if they deal more damage to one. The other way involves Mallow and his Psychopath move. The clone always have 500 HP and even his message "I'm not the real Mccoy!" gives him away.
