History
Mario & Luigi series
Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time
In the past, shortly before the Shroobs takeover, the castle was once home of Baby Princess Peach. Young Toadsworth invited Baby Mario and Baby Luigi to play with Baby Peach until Baby Bowser kidnaps her. After the duo defeat him, their victory was cut short when the castle starts to crumble from the Shroobs invasion with several toads are taken by UFO. With hope lost, Baby Bowser contact the Koopa Cruiser to evacuate others from the castle in which they succesfully did. Moments later, a time machine appears with the arrival of the present Princess Peach, Toadbert and Toadiko. To their shock and confusion, they're surrounded by Shroobs and two princess beginning to capture her, but Peach uses the Cobalt Star that powered the time machine to imprison the Elder Princess Shroob before it shatters, and the shards are scattered across the Mushroom Kingdom. The younger Princess Shroob then ambushes and captures Peach locked inside on top of the statue tower, while Toadiko and Toadbert escape the castle only to get seperated.
The castle now newly converted called Shroob Castle, Princess Shroob notices the Koopa Cruiser far distance and she sends a transmission by firing a Shroob Missile at them as it strikes the Koopa Cruiser leading to crash land its course.
After the Mario Bros. assemble the rest of the scattered shards of the Cobalt Star, they eventually go through infiltrate Shroob Castle, inside they find warp pipe passage to enter where Peach is being locked, only for a Chain Chomp bash the pipe sewer, redirecting it destination through the cellar's underground basement.
The Bros. then leave the basement and finally arrived inside to rescue Peach as the Shroob Castle's Tower is being attacked by Princess Shroob. At the top of the highest tower, they hijack a Shroob Battleship and engage Princess Shroob aboard the Shroob Mother Ship, eventually taking it down. As they return downstairs to investigate the wreckage alongside Princess Peach, a furious Princess Shroob descends from the wreckage on a floating throne, declaring Peach useless and moving to finish the group off and take over the kingdom, shouting "Destroy!" as the Bros. prepare to battle her. After the Mario Bros. defeated her, they were soon able to leave the tower only to spot the almost-whole Cobalt Star floating entering the room. Princess Peach reveals that she has the final shard, and that she refuses to let it be reassembled, confusing the adult Mario Bros.; Baby Bowser suddenly ambushes the group and snatches the shard, assembling the Cobalt Star much to Peach's protest and her horror. Princess Shroob then crawls into view, shouting that it is her sister's turn to defeat them now before her eyes go dim and she explodes in a burst of sparks; the Cobalt Star then begins darting around, storming the room before turning Baby Bowser into a Shroob Mushroom, and Princess Peach reveals the truth about the Star just before the Elder Princess Shroob regains her true form. As her form is restored, Elder Princess Shroob promises to kill the Bros. and Peach as revenge for her sister's death and then activates the platform they were standing on, engaging them in battle high skies above Shroob Castle. The heroes manage to finally defeat the Elder Princess Shroob and she becomes a Shroob mushroom, although not before gloating that even with her defeat, the Shroobs will ultimately destroy the Mushroom Kingdom regardless. Soon after, Professor E. Gadd sends Mario, Luigi, Baby Mario, Baby Luigi, Stuffwell and Peach back to their own present.
With the Shroob threat over, it is unknown what became of Shroob Castle afterwards as the overworld map shows no spew water coming from the Time Hole from the Hydrogush. It is most likely other places close nearby affected the shroobified castle back to its original state despite Baby Peach's Castle is still destroyed just as Young Toadsworth, Baby Peach, Baby Mario, and Baby Luigi arrive back to their past time period off-screen.
