Bowletta is the result of Cackletta's spirit inhabiting Bowser's body, who appears as the final boss of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and its remake, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions.

Bowletta retains Cackletta's facial appearance, including her purple eyes, large head and mouth, and the two pink horns replacing Bowser's own horns, although she has Bowser's red hair between them. Her body resembles Bowser's except that she has a smaller tail and light-colored breasts. Bowletta is also less round, but has a more hunched appearance, along with a taller shell. While their scales are the same color, Bowletta's green coloration is lighter than Bowser's. Bowletta wears both sets of Bowser's arm bracelets but lacks his collar. In her artwork, her horns are purple, and it is shown that she completely lacks Bowser's claws.

In the Nintendo 3DS remake, her appearance is revamped with the collar now appearing around her neck unlike previously. Her horns are also now correctly colored, and her shell is no longer as tall in comparison to that of normal Bowser's. Her green scale coloration is additionally no longer subtly brighter than Bowser's own. Her tail is also the same length as Bowser's tail, and she now has Bowser's claws. Her breasts no longer replace Bowser's plastron, as the plastron is still visible as a duller color than the breasts. Her dark appearance is altered by removing her pupils and all pink and red areas outside her eyes, and adding more yellow glowing areas.

Being the result of Cackletta's spirit possessing Bowser, Bowletta has the powers of Bowser; meaning she can shoot balls of fire, produce Flarets or fire a continuous blast of fire from her mouth. She also retained her ability of electrokinesis, shown when she appears for the first time as Bowletta, and can also create a rain of shooting stars when she transforms into her dark form. She can also inhale things into her body, shown when she inhales Mario and Luigi when they are knocked out from the Time Bob-omb after faking her defeat. Finally Bowletta also has limited shapeshifting abilities that she has preserved from her old form, as she appeared as Bowser in Minions Quest in an attempt to trick the Koopa Troop, only removing the disguise when she was sure no one was present.
