BACKGROUND: Star Crusters look almost exactly like the giant Crusty Crabs found in the Ocean around Jonathan Jones' ship, but they insist they're NOT CRABS. In fact, one theory is that they are an alien species enslaved or employed by Smithy and used for defense. No such creature was found around Bowser's Keep until Exor crashed into it.
Not much else is known about Star Crusters, they have disappeared since Smithy was beaten, possibly exterminated by the Koopa Troop.

in battle. It can counter physical attacks with Sleepy Bubble.
Basic Strategies: Most magic attacks are effective, and they take a couple of timed hits to kill.
Advanced Strategies: Using magic attacks is smart to avoid getting attacked with Sleepy Bubble, but it's not a huge deal. If you're going to use regular attacks, try leaving them for later so Sleepy Bubble won't disable your party members early on in the fight.
Star Cruster's regular attack is just a quick clipping motion with one claw. Try to hit A on mid-clip.
