The theory states that when Mario was young he had a pet turtle, until he lost it and didn’t ever find it again.
Years pass as he has become friends with Princess Peach but Bowser who has grown up into, bowser. Still thinks Mario missed him, but since he never gets Mario’s attention
He decides to capture Princess Peach to get Mario’s attention again, but because of how Mario reacted Bowser had fight him
And since then, they’ve been enemies
Pretty cool right?
