How to Beat Greenie

Stun Them First with Strobulb then Capture Them Using the Poltergust

When battling Greenies, the first thing Luigi needs to do is to flash them with the Strobulb. This will stun them and put them in a more vulnerable position.

After stunning them with Strobulb, Luigi can now capture them using the Poltergust.

Change Up Strategy for Greenie Variants

Greenies are resourceful and can use a variety of objects as weapons and shields, making them slightly more difficult to deal with.

Below are the ways to deal with Greenie variations.

Remove Sunglasses/Goggles First

Greenies that are wearing sunglasses or goggles can protect themselves from Luigi's Strobulb.

To deal with them, Luigi has to use the Poltergust to remove their sunglasses or goggles first, making them vulnerable to the Strobulb. Then, Luigi can now use the Strobulb to stun them, and capture them with the Poltergust.

Wait for and Dodge their Lunge Attack

Greenies that are wielding objects like a rolling pin, hammer, hockey stick, pickaxe, sword, shovels, or spears can use them as weapons and swing them at Luigi.

In particular, Greenies who are wielding rolling pin, hammer, hockey stick, pickaxe, or sword are also often wielding some type of shield to protect them from Luigi's Strobulb. On the other hand, Greenies who are wielding shovels or spears can use them to shield their faces from Luigi's Strobulb.

To deal with them, Luigi has to wait for them to lunge at him and dodge their attack. After lunging, they will be at a vulnerable position for a short time. Once they're vulnerable, Luigi can now stun them with the Strobulb, then capture them using the Poltergust.

Wait for them to Peek Out

Greenies that are wearing a bucket, wielding mask, hat, or helmet, or carrying coal or a rock can protect themselves from Luigi's Strobulb. However, as a consequence of not being able to see, they will peek out from time to time, making them vulnerable to Luigi's Strobulb.

To deal with them, Luigi has to wait for them to peek out. Once they show their faces, Luigi can now flash them with the Strobulb, then capture them using the Poltergust.

Wait for them to Show Up

Greenies that create a whirlwind in the sand can suck in Luigi if he's near it. They will also be hidden momentarily, making them invulnerable to Luigi's Strobulb.

To deal with them, Luigi has to keep its distance from the whirlwind and wait for them to show themselves. Once they reveal themselves, Luigi can now use the Strobulb to stun them, then capture them using the Poltergust.

Make them Bump Into a Wall or Fire

Greenies that disguise themselves as mummies won't be affected by Luigi's Strobulb. They will also charge at Luigi and try to grab him.

To deal with them, Luigi has to lure them near a wall or fire. When they charge at him, Luigi can dodge and force them to bump into the wall or fire. When they bump into a wall, they will fall down and expose a piece of bandage. Luigi then has to use the Poltergust to remove the bandages and expose the Greenie hiding inside. On the other hand, when they bump into fire, their bandages will be set aflame, which then exposes the Greenies hiding inside. Once exposed, use the Strobulb to stun them, then capture them using the Poltergust.
