Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars[]
Mario first meets Mallow when the cloud-being was being harassed by the crocodilian thief, Croco. Finding Mallow sobbing after having a special coin stolen from him by Croco, Mario decides to aid Mallow in getting his coin back. Tracking Croco down to Bandit's Way, Mario and Mallow manage to defeat Croco and reclaim Mallow's coin. Returning to the Mushroom Kingdom, the two find it under the control of Mack, a member of the Smithy Gang. Mario and Mallow defeat Mack and venture through Kero Sewers, and after some trouble with Belome, they meet Mallow's grandfather, Frogfucius.
It is during this meeting with Frogfucius that Mallow learns that he, in actuality, is not a frog; one stormy night, Frogfucius found Mallow drifting down a river. Feeling bad for the young Nimbus, Frogfucius decided to adopt Mallow and raise him on his own. Over the years, Mallow then started to call Frogfucius "Grandpa." Mallow is saddened to hear that he isn't related to Frogfucius but continues to call him "Grandpa." After learning this, Mallow decides to journey with Mario, hoping to discover his real parents and home.
Much later, Mallow does find his parents. After learning from a sculptor that he was the prince of Nimbus Land, Mallow also learned that he was the son of King and Queen Nimbus. Freeing Nimbus Land from the wicked Queen Valentina and foiling her plan to pass Dodo off as the long lost Prince, Mallow finally met his real parents. After defeating Smithy, Mallow turn to Nimbus Land to rule over it with his parents.
