If you don't know who Cursa is, let me break her down for you
Cursa is the main antagonist of Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope. Her main goal is to feast upon the power of the Sparks (AKA Rabbid Lumas for those who don't know) and spread this black goo called Darkmess. It was created from the broken fragments of the Main antagonist of Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, The Megabug. She also Merged with Rosalina for what assuming was more Power. She then created an Army of Corrupted Rabbids, Mind Controlled Minions of Bowsers, and a Special force to lead them called the "Spark Hunters"

Boom, that's all you need to know in a short sentence. Now for the theory:

How did she copy Bowser

Bowser actually wasn't the main antagonist of both games but was still the Final Boss of Kingdom battle, but how? This is the Megabug. As it's name suggests, it is a bug, a computer bug not an insect of course. Throughout the game it was simply a storm in the sky slowly gaining Power the more enemies were defeated until you reach the gates to Bowsers Castle in which it finally gains a physical Dragon Form. Once it makes it to the castle after laying out Bowser, it decides to possess Bowser, becoming Megadragonbowser! Once defeated, Bowsers freed and the Megabug is blown to bits but it's fragments floating through space until it merged with some debris, Creating Cursa.

One thing to note about Cursa is since it was created from the Megabug, it gained all of it's memories. The Megabug wasn't really alive for that long but since it possessed Bowser, it gained all of his memories which Cursa inherited. We learn this during the Darkmess Bowser fight as Darkmess Bowser is a recreation of the Koopa King from Memory

Now here's where my theory begins. I believe Cursa quite literally ripped off Bowsers entire Clan. Let me Explain


Bowsers Minions
As you know, Bowser's minions were possessed by Cursa and forced to fight for her, Specifically Goombas, Bob-ombs, Wiggler, and Magikoopas. She obviously did this because she sees how valuable those minions are, After all it has ALL of his memories. She even modified them to change how they work Entirely like the new creation, Armored Goomba, which has a Darkmess Infused cooking pot permanently attached to its head. She also modified the Magikoopas to be immune to all super-effects, which is actually a big difference because it makes them immune to things that usually defeat them like Fire, Ice, and Poison.

She also flat out makes her minions forcefully use Bowsers minions in Battle, aka The Squashers and Squashettes (The Pig-Nosed Rabbid with the Thwomp on it's Back). She even made Darkmess Versions of the Rabbid Mechakoopas!


Influence to her Creations
While most of Cursas Minions are original (The Wildclaw class of enemies, The Wolf class of Enemies, The Golem class of enemies, The Squasher Class of enemies, and the Fieldbreakers) some of them have most likely been copied from Bowser, as Cursa just loves to mimic Bowser in many ways of Combat. For a great example, The Stooges. Many people debate whether or not Stooges are or Aren't Rabbid Shy Guys, they definitely share similar characteristics that Curse might've taken straight from Bowsers memory including: Eye size, Come in Many colors and Powers, and Both wearing Robes.

Another case is the Medician class of enemies being the Magikoopas of Cursas army. The similarities are:
Both again wear similar Cloak, Both are strong magicians and are the elites of their perspective Army's, One of the Variants (Oozer) having a similar Cloak. Even a battle called "Darkmess, Uncontained" has Magikoopas apart of the crowd of Medicians, Oozers, and Spellraisers.

The Spark Hunters
The Spark Hunters are Cursas main henchmen. They are Rabbids merged with specific stuff like Mist or Plants. But besides being made out of completely different material, The Spark Hunters are most certainly modeled after Bowsers Minions, and even it's former leaders (Edge and Kanya) share similarities to Bowser and Bowser Jr

Starting off with Midnite, she shares a similar Playful tease Boos have. She also has a similar transparent White color that can be seen in some games

Next up is Bedrock. While physically she isn't really comparable to a Thwomp, more like a Whomp. But both of these two share the same squashing behavior, we know this clearly because like mentioned previously, Thwomps are in this game, Though this is only in behavior and not really in physical appearance.

Next is Daphne who's very similar to a Piranha Plant. For starters, her hoodie looks exactly like the lips and teeth of a Piranha, even forming a full mouth on the back of her head. The back of her head also has spots on it. Her skirt is designed to mimic a Pipe and she uses her vines just like the already existing Rabbid hybird Pirabbid Plant.

Next is Kanya. Both have red bushy eyebrows and Spike-less Bracelets. Both of them are tech geniuses and crazily, Both fought Mario in Mechs in the Mario + Rabbids games (Bowser Jr piloted the Mecha Jr. Whilst Kanya piloted the Mecha King Bob-Omb). They also have their own Logos, theme machines after they're color palettes, Both have a similar laugh and personality, and even get they're Mechs destroyed the same way.

And finally Edge. While she is considered her own character with her own abilities she still shared similarities to Bowser such as Eyebrows, Teeth, Hair, Leadership, and her jacket fitting similarly to Bowsers shell

Conclusion

It's very clear, Cursa (Using the memories of Bowser) copied his entire Army and even him and his son using the information the Megabug gathered by possessing him. This sounded better in my head but due to my pea brain I forgot a few other points that if I remember I'll update on. I would love to hear what people think, Am I sounding like a truth nuke or a crazy person​
