{{nihongo|'''Cackletta'''|ゲラゲモーナ|Geragemona}} is an evil witch from Beanbean kingdom and the main villain of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' for the [[Game Boy Advance]].

{{spoiler}}
Aided by her sycophantic assistant [[Fawful]], Cackletta attempted to steal [[Princess Peach|Princess Peach's]] [[human voice|voice]] and use it to steal the Beanstar — a mystical object of the Beanbean Kingdom that can grant wishes. Beanbean lore states that only one with a beautiful voice can activate the Beanstar's mysterious powers to grant any wish — and Cackletta hopes to use this power to conquer Beanbean Kingdom and soon after, the [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. Cackletta's plans backfire, however, when she actually attempts to use Peach's voice. She finds that [[Toadsworth]] and the Mushroom retainers anticipated the [[ambush]] and switched Peach with [[Birdo]], whom they dolled up like Peach. As a result, the Beanstar was infuriated by Birdo's squawking voice and did not grant Cackletta her wish.

Mario and Luigi soon caught up to Cackletta at Woohoo Hooniversity and fought her. She attacked ferociously, with [[black hole]]s and [[Lightning|lightning bolts]], but, ultimately, was defeated by the Mario Bros. Her body was battered up so badly, she could no longer move around on her own, and was close to her [[Death|turn in death]]. Fawful absorbed Cackletta's spirit into a vacuum cleaner-like device to save her and tried to attack the Mario bros. He was stopped by [[Prince Peasley]], who shot them out of the Hooniversity. [[King Bowser]] was suffering from [[amnesia]] for some time after being shot out of a large [[cannon]] and was wandering idly around Beanbean Kingdom. Just when he remembered who he was, Fawful met him and sent Cackletta's spirit into his body. Cackletta promptly renamed herself "[[Bowletta]]", a combination of Bowser's name and hers.

Armed with the new alias, Bowletta continued her plan to obtain the Beanstar and Peach's voice. The Mario Bros. eventually caught up with Bowletta, and after fighting through the notoriously spoiled [[Koopalings]] (Bowser's malicous children), and Fawful, they fought Bowletta. Bowletta's abilities would be based on Bowser's mostly, using large scale blasts of flame and extremely deadly side attacks. However the one off attack from Bowser was a meteor attack where Bowletta would send star shaped meteors down on the Bros. The attack would turn her black, giving her immunity to electrical attacks, and when normal colored, would be immune to fire attacks. Bowletta gave up without really giving a fight, and it seemed too easy, until Bowletta swallowed them whole. Inside Bowser's stomach, Mario and Luigi encountered Cackletta's spirit inside of the body. Cackletta's spirit would also differ from the first fight. First she would use multiple attacks, and two or three at a time. The attacks would have to be dodged on the first turn since both Bros would always have one health from the previous scene. The battle would consist on hitting Cackletta's arms, and head until they disappeared and revealed her heart. On arm would use lightning attacks, while the other would consistently use fire attacks. The head would use multiple beam type attacks. If both arms were still there when the player would hit the head, Cackletta would automatically attack regardless of whther or not both Bros. have used their attacks yet. Once the heart was exposed, the Mario's would have to hit the heart rapidly, while the heart healed all of Cackletta's appendage's. Regardless, they would defeat her. After defeating the specter, it left Bowser's body, returning him to normal. It can be assumed that Cackletta is dead and retired from Nintendo games.
