Phantom (Rabbid)

The Phantom of the Bwahpera, also known as Tom Pham, is the sixth boss in Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, as well as the titular main antagonist in its sequel’s DLC, Rayman and the Phantom’s Show. He is fought in the Spooky Trails area. The boss makes his first appearance when Mario and his friends make their way to the stage where they should see him make his debut. Mario realizes that he and the rest of the party are in for a fight when Bowser Jr. reveals that Tom Phan is going to make his debut right now, especially after Bowser Jr. hacked F. B.'s email account to Beep-0 (who thought that Tom Phan was a fake).
== Profile ==
=== Physical description ===
The Phantom is a fused, levitating, heavyset Rabbid ghost with an Enlightenment-style attire and a Boo-like underside that occasionally turns transparent, revealing a phonograph inside.
=== Personality traits ===
Phantom is best described as being extremely vain, arrogant, overconfident, and egotistical. He constantly regards himself as being superior to Mario and his friends and believes that he will destroy them even when he is quite weak and vulnerable. Even during the heat of battle, Phantom still remains concerned about his appearance, often stating "How does my nose look?" During his second ballad, he questions why Mario and his friends aren't kneeling before him because he is "the star" and later states that they are not worth his time. He also has a evident flair for dramatization, as shown by his defeat, and showcasing a true passion for acting, music and rhyming.
For reasons unknown, Phantom was also deeply hateful, loathsome, calculating, and jealous towards Mario and sings about his desire to kill him constantly. Throughout the entirety of both his ballads, Phantom openly insults and pokes fun at Mario, mocking his "plumb-shaped" weight, mustache, relationship with Princess Peach, and lack of dialogue. In one of his lyrics, he states that Mario has done him "a thousand wrongs ever since Donkey Kong", meaning that his hatred for Mario stems from his very first appearance in video games.

===Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle ===
Phantom is the sixth boss in Spooky Trails. After Mario, Beep-0, and co., under instructions from someone, unlock the Moon Gate in order to awaken a warrior named Tom Phan to help them, they realize that that person was actually Bowser Jr., who had hacked F.B's email account. Bowser Jr. then tells the group that Tom Phan is, or at least will be real, pulling out the "Relics of Goodness"; a Rabbid, a Boo Balloon, and a Gramophone and scaring Spawny into fusing them. As Relics combine to create Tom Phan, Bowser Jr. explains that Tom Phan really means Phantom, before flying off. Phantom then begins to sing a ballad about his hatred of Mario and desire to kill him and his friends before starting the battle.
As the battle starts, Beep-0 tells the group that his sensors indicate that Phantom is immune to all attacks while in the spotlight and that they will need to take out the lights before trying to attack him. After taking out the lights and bringing down Phantom's health twice, he begins angrily singing about his hatred of Mario and desires to destroy him again, now summoning even more enemies and becoming even more powerful. After taking out the lights and taking down Phantom yet again, he falls on the stage and performs an melodramatic death scene before finally collapsing. After defeating Phantom, the player can obtain Grudge Metal which is a Blaster weapon exclusive to Mario.

Although the Phantom doesn't physically appear in the game, he is mentioned several times throughout the game's fourth planet, Terra Flora. By investigating various murals across the planet, it is revealed that, following his defeat, the Phantom became a celebrity host for the annual Galactovision song contest. However, during the event he constantly tried to outshine his co-host, Bea, with both eventually ruining their voices. He and Bea began a whirlwind relationship after this, culminating in the Phantom callously breaking up with her via text during her acceptance speech at the Galaxy Music Awards. Bea's career ended shortly following their breakup, and she would eventually retire to Terra Flora to become an organic farmer, and the planet's Warden. At some point, the Phantom rose up to be the host of the Space Opera Network and with some Agents of Darkmess on the loose infesting it with Darkmess, he would command them for his amusement and revenge by inviting Rabbid Mario, Rabbid Peach, Beep-0 and Rayman to take on them for each sets to reach his fame then revealed his true colors to high-C them to death by once again singing a ballad about his hatred on them and desire to kill them just like he did with Mario from the first game. He once again performs a melodramatic death before collapsing once again
