Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) | comment |
Quite possibly one of the oddest Mario crossovers to date, Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam is a Crossover between two different Mario RPG series, Mario & Luigi and Paper Mario. Considered the fifth installment within AlphaDream's Mario & Luigi series, the gameplay is based primarily on said series; Intelligent Systems provided input for Paper Mario's gameplay, with the character playing similarly to his home series. The game released December 2015 in Japan and Europe, and January 2016 in North America.The story begins with a usual storage cleanup at Peach's Castle being tasked to Luigi and a Toad. While fending off a problematic mouse, Luigi accidentally ends up knocking down the Paper Book, which is the book that holds the Paper World where Paper Mario exists, and ends up releasing a big mess of paper residents out into the world, causing massive panic and confusion. It is not long before Mario and Luigi are tasked to retrieve all the paper residents to the Paper Book, alongside Paper Mario himself aiding them in the journey...Unfortunately, they're not the only alternate dimension teamups going on. With two Marios, there are also two Bowsers running around too, and the two are determined to get rid of both Marios once and for all...if they don't end up getting rid of each other first. | |

The Artifact | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_13d7a65e | comment |
The Artifact: Spinies flipping on their backsides when hit with a hammer attack. While this makes sense in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team due to them being dream world enemies (which turns the aforementioned hammer attack into an attack that involves tossing enemies into the air with an earth-shattering shockwave), in this game, it doesn't due to the attack working as normal (as in, "hitting the enemy with a hammer"). The Paper Tower Power Pokey still has a "Royal Sticker"-like crown on top of his head, in spite of the Royal Stickers not playing a part within the game's plot. It's presumably a normal crown this time. | |

Heroic Mime: As is tradition for most Mario games, but Paper Mario is even more of a Heroic Mime than Mario or Luigi, since he can't even speak pseudo-Italian simlish. (Paper Mario previously had Voice Grunting in Thousand-Year Door and Super Paper Mario, so this was obviously done to differentiate him from his "real-world" counterpart.) | |

Rush Boss | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_1533b84a | comment |
Rush Boss: Lemmy, Iggy, and Morton Jr. fill this role in the battle against them. They attack simultaneously and their attacks are highly damaging (and, in Morton's case, can inflict instant death on all three Bros. if not countered properly), but they have less health than the other Koopalings, and countering their attacks makes them take decent damage and get put in a state of dizziness, leaving them helpless against your next few attacks until they recover and repeat the same strategy, making them easy to take out. | |

Peninsula of Power Leveling | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_16972b3c | comment |
Peninsula of Power Leveling: Shiny Paper Bob-ombs can actually appear on the 1st area of Sunbeam Plains. Compared to some other enemies in the same area, their high levels = high experience yields. Additionally, an unlockable equip for Paper Mario, the Shiny Ring, drastically increases the chance for Shiny Paper enemies to appear. It is very possible to be insanely overleveled by the time you face Bowser Jr. It involves the Paper Boomerang Bros at Bowser's Castle (grounded). It takes quite a while, but some of them will throw another Paper Boomerang Bro instead of a normal boomerang, meaning that they'll spawn new ones every time they attack you. This can result in them spawning about 8-9 at a time, which is quite insane, but each of them will give you more EXP. At the final dungeon, two specific areas are suddenly swarmed by groups of enemies: some of those enemies give you a chance to seriously level grind, and some others help to accumulate Star Points to use experience multiplier cards. The only downside is that you have to beat some other enemies outside those areas to make them respawn. | |

Cheated Angle: The paper characters (Paper Mario included) are only shown from an angle different than the front of their sprites when the fact that they're made of paper is currently relevant to the situation. Except during Papercraft battles, but that's only because it's the only time the player has control over the camera's current angle. | |

During the first visit to Bowser's castle, there are three Fire Ores decorating the place in various parts. On the return to the now-airborne castle, Toadette has the heroes steal these in order to power up her new Papercraft. | |

Pride Before a Fall: After the Bowser Jrs. show supremely arrogant disregard for the Paper Book — including calling it a piece of trash — Mario defeats them and is about to take it away, and the two feebly try to tell their fathers how important the book is. Their fathers, however, respond with the same dismissive attitude they once had by calling the book a piece of garbage not worth their attention, though by the final battle, it's no longer there because they plan to trap Mario, Luigi, Paper Mario, and Starlow in it. | |

Attacks (a few even taken straight out of Mario & Luigi: Dream Team), but it's justified by Nabbit stealing them before Mario and Luigi could get their hands on them. | |

Level in the Clouds: There is a cloudy area above Sunbeam Plains which must be accessed upon the second visit to get to Gloomy Woods. Mt. Brr also has a cloudy summit which is used to reach floating Bowser's Castle. | |

Glass Cannon | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_2f253c94 | comment |
Glass Cannon: Thanks to the ability to copy himself, Paper Mario can dish out far more damage to foes than Mario and Luigi. However, being paper in a world not made of paper, understandably he can't take as much punishment, and thus has far less HP and DEF than Mario and Luigi. In addition, his copies die if he gets hit. Lemmy, Iggy, and Morton Jr. have deadly attacks, but they have less health than the other Koopalings and are left vulnerable if you counter said attacks, making them easy to take out. | |

Theme Music Power-Up | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_2f50c5bf | comment |
Theme Music Power-Up: An interesting variation occurs when the party gains its third member mid-battle. Battles with just the local Mario and Luigi use a remix of Superstar Saga's battle theme, right up to their Hopeless Boss Fight with a stack of Paper Goombas. And then Paper Mario shows up, and the music changes to a battle mix of the title theme and stays that way for all future regular fights. | |

Fusion Dance | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_302730a | comment |
Fusion Dance: A combination of the Composite and Power Booster varieties. Paper Bowser performs this with his minions to form Shiny RoboBowser's Powered Armor. During battle, some of the minions can break off and attack. The boss is technically this trope with the M&L Bowser, but he seems to be a separate entity from the armor (he isn't part of the initial Fusion Dance with the paper characters, and in battle he's simply referred to as "Bowser" once his helmet is broken off). However, Bowser does shapeshift along with whatever form Paper Bowser is taking in their attack phases, be it the humongous wheel, the arm cannons, or flattening their arms to act as wings, cementing this on some physical level. | |

Breaking Old Trends | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_311500f5 | comment |
Breaking Old Trends: Paper Jam has almost no characters that weren't introduced in any other Mario game. This means no original villainsnote except Tower Power Pokey, as the game considers him a unique character, original enemiesnote except Sombrero Guy, or even new variations of existing Mario enemies beside Paper variants. Basically all the characters are from the main series platforming games, with the exceptions being Toadette (who was only in spin-offs at the time), Starlow (the only character to return from previous Mario & Luigi games), and the one or two Sticker Star only enemies. | |

Asteroids Monster: If they're not defeated in a single hit, Paper Fuzzies will divide into two smaller Fuzzies, which can occur twice for a total of four Fuzzies from one. Also, if not defeated quickly, they'll eventually explode into a screen-filling mass of minuscule Fuzzies and try to swarm the Bros in one last attack, ending the battle without any rewards whether you manage to escape or get hit and survive. | |

Luigi points out a lot of the things that they need to do. And all three develop moves together without needing any outside assistance this time around. | |

Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_4292ebbf | comment |
Doppelgänger Attack: Paper Mario can use Toadette's Copy Block in battle to stack copies of himself besides him and become layered, just like enemies do. Initially he can make 5 copies and stack to 6 Paper Marios total, but two Rank Up upgrades allow him to increase his copy count by two, to 7 and then to 9. Paper Mario by himself is weaker than the normal Mario Bros., but these copies allow him to do more attacks to compensate for this; during a jump, he can stomp once for every layer he has, while his hammer attack distributes each individual Paper Mario to an enemy as evenly as possible, followed by each one pulling out their hammer and slamming them in unison. | |

Crosshair Aware: To lessen confusion during enemy attacks, two unique crosshairs that appear at the Bros.' feet have been added during enemy attacks; an attack shows a full-colored circle around a Bro if an attack is aimed at them and only them (such as when a Goomba walks in front of Mario and charges him), and a dotted line appears around the Bros. if an attack can potentially hit them (such as when a Goomba stands between the Mario Bros. and glances at who he's attacking) or if an attack needs to be dodged with multiple Bros. (such as when a Koopa does a shell spin in a circle aimed at both of the Mario Bros.), informing you that you have to spot the tell to know who to dodge with. | |

Cast from Hit Points: There are a few Battle Cards that damage all of the Bros. (either 50% or 80% of their health) in exchange for giving them more Star Points. | |

In every main Paper Mario title until now, the game begins opening a book, and the game ends by closing said book. Paper Jam begins with Luigi releasing the Paper characters from a book. | |

Taken to another level by the Sparkle Cards, that require two amiibo of the same character, both of which must have data from this game on it, making them redundant for any other purpose. However, they aren't required to be owned by the same person, making it possible to borrow figures from your friends to get the same benefits. The rare duo cards also require two figures, of different characters this time, but the second character can have other save data. | |

Bribing Your Way to Victory: If you have a New Nintendo 3DS and amiibo, you can make some really powerful Battle Cards to quickly defeat your opponents. If you just have an ordinary 3DS, you'll need an NFC Reader to use your amiibo. If you don't have that...well, there's a Toad that will buy your amiibo cards off you.

For a character that was originally just a Starter Villain in Super Mario 64, King Bob-omb turned into a very intimidating villain that's in charge of a mountain operation that involves raining paper terrain and paper enemies. His boss battle is even a timed battle as well, and he's much more powerful to boot. | |

Heel–Face Turn: The Paper Goomba who the bros. previously fought and crumpled gives you advice on using Battle Cards. Later on, though, he steals the Bowser Medallion off the team under the pretense of checking that it was the real deal and says it's his way of getting back with the other minions, forcing you to retrieve it from one of a number of minions. Once you get it back, he runs away again. | |

Other Me Annoys Me: The Bowsers don't get along particularly well; their first meeting ends in a Big Ball of Violence between them. Heck, it's later directly invoked by both of them. The two Kameks also don't get along very well with each other, though they do develop a grudging respect for each other as the story goes on. The two Bowser Jrs., however, immediately become friends, to the point where they don't want to leave each other. And, unfortunately for them, they are heavily implied to be separated at the end. | |

Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_6638c7f7 | comment |
Stealth-Based Mission: One of the Paper Toad rescue quests involve needing to rescue them without being spotted by a Fly Guy. Three misses and you have to start again. One miss and it's over in the Hard Mode quest. A story mission involves capturing the Bowser Jrs. without being spotted. You have one try even if you're not on Hard Mode. At one point during the story, a cowering Luigi storms through a Boo-infested Gloomy Woods alone trying to find the two Marios. The only penalty for getting caught by the Boos is a waste of time due to them frightening Luigi, but since the sections are timed, it will cost the player some seconds. | |

If you thought Bowser was badass enough in Dream Team, in this game, he and his paper counterpart have cemented their status as competent, rather dark villains who will protect their children to the very end. To top it all off, their Evil Plan is dark even for a light-hearted franchise like Mario, rivaling the plans of previous RPG villains in sheer evilness. After this game and Dream Team, it's safe to say that Bowser has finally ended his Villain Decay and has become more evil than he ever was since Super Mario Galaxy. | |

Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: Finding the Wellington Boots, which also crosses over with some Luck-Based Mission to boot. To recap: You have to battle a Paper Broozer, a rare enemy that only appears in a few spots of the final dungeon. Said Paper Broozer won't drop them normally: it must first use a certain attack (out of three possible ones) to attack the bros. This attack throws a number of barrels that the bros must break with their hammers. Upon doing that, each barrel has a chance to contain loot. Said loot is usually coins, with a small chance to contain a rare item which has a one in seven chance of being the Wellington Boots, the other six possible drops being Beans. | |

Color-Coded for Your Convenience: Each type of Battle Card has a colored background based on its effect: Cards that restore the Bros. (health, BP, or revives) have a pink background. Cards that buff the Bros.' stats (power, defense, speed, etc.) have a blue and green background. Cards that decrease enemies' stats or otherwise negatively affect them (turning them into Goombas, making their attacks heal you, decreasing their level, etc.) have a cyan and blue background. Cards that give out Star Points in any way have a purple and lavender background. Cards that deal direct damage to targets have an orange background, which gradually becomes red on stronger cards. Cards that instantly defeat enemies have a purple and red gradient background. Cards that help the Bros. in any other way (decreasing damage taken when blocking, increasing experience and coin payouts, increasing timers in timed missions, etc.) have a yellow background. Cards that deal out more cards have a light green background. | |

Herding Mission | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_75e04d9e | comment |
Herding Mission: The mission in Twinsy Tropics Dungeon called "Lost Toad Corral". Scared Toads run away from Mario, Luigi, and Paper Mario on sight. Mario has to clear an exit path and break the rocks that the Toads are sometimes hiding behind, then chase them all to the exit platform. | |

Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_767ef8a0 | comment |
Flying Seafood Special: Aquatic enemies, such as Cheep Cheeps and Urchins, are portrayed as if they're flying while within combat (even if they're fought outside of water). The former will eventually dry out and drop to the ground after enough turns pass, however, fleeing on the next turn if they aren't defeated. | |

Later-Installment Weirdness | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_7b21ef92 | comment |
Later-Installment Weirdness: Paper Jam has few different things than the first 4 games. The first bro you get to control is solo Luigi, rather than solo Mario or Mario and Luigi. You're able to save the game anytime by touching the save button on the touchscreen rather than finding a save block in the gameplay (Note: In Dream Team, the player could also save anytime by tapping the save button; Paper Jam is the first of the series to completely eliminate the save blocks, though.) When you level up, you don't get to distribute bonus points to a stat; this is effectively replaced by the Rank-Up bonuses that allow you to get extra points in certain stats when you level up. The first battle isn't against a boss (usually Bowser, although the last game had Antasma instead) but against a pair of Paper Goombas. The Spin Jump move is not present (likely because there's three characters) and is replaced by the Trio Grab. | |

Logical Weakness | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_83641c73 | comment |
Logical Weakness: Paper-based citizens take more damage to fire attacks dues to their natural flammability. This extends to both paper enemies and Paper Mario himself. It even applies to paper enemies who use fire themselves, such as Fire Bros. and Fire Piranha Plants. There are even a group of achievements for finishing off paper enemies with fire attacks. | |

Superboss | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_8454f523 | comment |
Superboss: Like Bowser Jr. in the previous game, an established character makes their Mario and Luigi debut within the Battle Ring at the end of the Boss Rush mode. This time, it's Dry Bowser. Unlike the last two games' bonus bosses, he doesn't steal your Bros. Attacks, but the trade-off is that the fight itself is grueling: his own attack patterns are brutal enough, but the kicker is that he summons Roy and Wendy and later (if Dry Bowser isn't beaten first) Ludwig and Larry to fight alongside him, adding to the chaos. Oh, and all of them are Level 45 with Dry Bowser himself at 48, so they all hit like trucks. | |

Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_863fa679 | comment |
What Happened to the Mouse?: After the trio defeats them, the Bowser Jrs. disappear from the story, despite the story making a big deal about their friendship and eventual separation. Their papercraft appears in the ending credits. The crinkled Goomba at the start of the game leads a tutorial battle that introduces Paper Mario. He shows up again to teach the Bros how to use Battle Cards. Later, he claims to know a way to Bowser's Castle, but tricks the Bros and leads them to have their medallion stolen. Starlow notices him once again, but decides not to waste any more time with him. The crinkled Goomba isn't seen again, getting off with no punishment and there's no mention of whether or not he eventually gained Bowser's respect. | |

Beat Them at Their Own Game | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_8a6d2168 | comment |
Beat Them at Their Own Game: When Paper Mario first uses his Copy Block, the enemy he was up against accuse him, the Paper Goomba stack, of mimicing them. The bosses do this to the brothers: As the battle starts, Paper Petey Piranha steals the Copy Block from Paper Mario and uses it to gain nigh-invulnerable copies for itself (he tosses it afterwards so Paper Mario can still use it), turning the boss fight into a bit of a Puzzle Boss as you crumple down every copy and try to strike the real one on the ground. Ludwig and Larry use Battle Cards, which they can use much faster because their evil Dark Star points refill quickly with successful attacks. Shiny RoboBowser has his own version of the Trio Hammer which he can use to paperize the Marios and Luigi and unleash his own special attack. Toadette also pulls this for the final Papercraft battle. After witnessing Papercraft Bowser torch her creations, she gets a "Eureka!" Moment to start building Papercraft Fire Mario. | |

Broken Armor Boss Battle | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_903e27ca | comment |
Broken Armor Boss Battle: The Final Boss fight involves Bowser having armor formed from Paper Bowser and his minions. Mario and company can only attack the armor — but once the helmet is broken off, Mario and company can attack direct Bowser directly before the armor reforms. Additionally, when the armor is intact, Bowser can immediately negate and then counter Paper Mario's Trio Attacks, so Paper Mario is limited to normal attacks until the armor is broken. | |

Recurring Location | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_921f5a6d | comment |
Recurring Location: If one counts Neo Bowser Castle being the same as Bowser's Castle, then Paper Jam is the only entry in the franchise where every area has to be visited at least twice during the adventure, each time with new paths and areas unlocked. The most clear example is, surprisingly, Sunbeam Plains, the game's Green Hill Zone, which the trio has to navigate thrice: one at the beginning, another during the halfway mark, and one last time near the end of the game. | |

Damn You, Muscle Memory!: Having a third party member may screw up anyone trying to dodge multi-target attacks. Aside from Bomb Derby, which plays exactly the same, the returning Bros. attacks from the previous game have new mechanics. The 3D Shell (now exclusive to Mario) only has six prompts to execute instead of ten, and goes faster from the start. Dream Team's Fire Flower is a Charged Attack note the bros have to hold their fireballs long enough to grow before hurling them at the targets returning to a Spam Attack mechanic like previous entries. Dropchopper now utilizes the Circle Pad instead of gyro controls. | |

Big Bad Duumvirate: The two Bowsers form an alliance of sorts, but they seem more content with fighting each other rather than the Marios. Unlike in Dream Team, their status is out in the open right from the beginning, though Bowser is every bit as competent as he was in that game. Also unlike Dream Team, Bowser's alliance with Paper Bowser actually sticks to the very end, unlike his alliance with Antasma where he betrays him right towards the end of the game (although he does try betraying his paper counterpart, which didn't stick due to his paper counterpart being a lot more proactive than Antasma). | |

Took a Level in Badass | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_9bcd82c0 | comment |
Took a Level in Badass: Mario and the gang can now defeat enemies which couldn't normally be defeated via direct attacks within other Mario games, like Bullies, for example. If you thought Bowser was badass enough in Dream Team, in this game, he and his paper counterpart have cemented their status as competent, rather dark villains who will protect their children to the very end. To top it all off, their Evil Plan is dark even for a light-hearted franchise like Mario, rivaling the plans of previous RPG villains in sheer evilness. After this game and Dream Team, it's safe to say that Bowser has finally ended his Villain Decay and has become more evil than he ever was since Super Mario Galaxy. Several mooks are reimagined in this game as to allow them to fight better. Ninjis, for example, are now portrayed a lot more like actual ninjas rather than just star-shaped creatures that jump up and down. The Chargin' Chucks have been upgraded from individual mooks to a Wolfpack Boss that uses effective sports-based team attacks in order to battle Mario and the gang, complete with an attack that involves them chasing the Mario brothers and Turning Red when you dwindle their numbers enough. For a character that was originally just a Starter Villain in Super Mario 64, King Bob-omb turned into a very intimidating villain that's in charge of a mountain operation that involves raining paper terrain and paper enemies. His boss battle is even a timed battle as well, and he's much more powerful to boot. Nabbit is surprisingly quite tough when you do face him during combat, using his Bag of Holding to toss stuff at Mario and the gang as well as summoning mooks to fight with him while he dozes off in the background. And even during this, Nabbit will still try to attack, using his sneaking skills in an attempt to confuse the player and nab the brother's hammer just so that he can whack them with it. The Koopalings always fight you in pairs - or in one case a trio - and have some rather good attacks and strategies for once. | |

Continuity Nod: At one point, Princess Peach asks Paper Princess Peach if she has any ideas for styling her hair. Paper Princess Peach suggests a ponytail, saying "It's good for playing sports, but it's hardly a new look." This is a reference to the Mario sports games, in which Peach has her hair in a ponytail. Toadette often reminiscences on her appearance within Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, to the point of almost namedropping the game. Two of King Bob-omb's three attacks have him grab and throw one of the Bros and throw normal Bob-ombs at them. The former was his only attack in his Super Mario 64 battle and the second battle with him in its remake, while the latter was added for his first fight in the remake so Yoshi could hurt him. The Battle Cards that amiibo give feature artwork from previous Super Mario Bros. games. | |

Parental Obliviousness: There is no question that both Bowsers love their sons tremendously in this game — but it’s also clear they're not giving them the level of attention and social interaction they need. They hardly ever listen to what their sons have to say, even when they've just been seriously hurt. | |

Ascended Extra: Previously a Superboss within Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, Bowser Jr. now has a bigger role within the story (alongside his paper counterpart). What's more, the game also details how he and his paper double bond with each other over the course of the story. The Koopalings themselves went from being completely silent end-bosses from Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga to having actual speaking roles throughout the game. Toadette has a bigger role in this game, alluding to her supportive role in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. | |

The crinkled Goomba at the start of the game leads a tutorial battle that introduces Paper Mario. He shows up again to teach the Bros how to use Battle Cards. Later, he claims to know a way to Bowser's Castle, but tricks the Bros and leads them to have their medallion stolen. Starlow notices him once again, but decides not to waste any more time with him. The crinkled Goomba isn't seen again, getting off with no punishment and there's no mention of whether or not he eventually gained Bowser's respect. | |

As the battle starts, Paper Petey Piranha steals the Copy Block from Paper Mario and uses it to gain nigh-invulnerable copies for itself (he tosses it afterwards so Paper Mario can still use it), turning the boss fight into a bit of a Puzzle Boss as you crumple down every copy and try to strike the real one on the ground. | |

However, you better have taken notes during the battle against Bowser Jr., because the Paper Trampoline sequence (the only other battle that it's used) is reused when trying to send a Chain Chomp flying back at the group, and if you fail, your entire group will get KO'd. | |

Lost in Translation | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_b7920c43 | comment |
Lost in Translation: The location names in the Japanese version, as well as the Korean and some European translations, are themed after terms for splitting images (Pair Plains, Overlap Woods, Look-alike Mountain). This follows up on the laughter-theme in Superstar Saga, the anatomical and sickness-related theme in Bowser's Inside Story and the sleeping theme in Dream Team. However, in the English versions, this is mostly forgone in favor of more traditional location names (Sunbeam Plains, Gloomy Woods, Mount Brrr). The only English location names that seem to follow this theme are Doop Doop Dunesnote Doop → "dupe" → duplicate and Twinsy Tropics. One of the things Starlow says to psyche Luigi up while he's on his own in the second trip to Gloomy Woods is that "it's basically Luigi RPG now!" While the intent of the joke still comes across in English, it's a reference to the fact that the series is called "Mario & Luigi RPG" in Japan. After entering Doop Doop Dunes for the first time, a cutscene plays of the regular and Paper minions interacting. A normal Shy Guy shouts "Hey!", to which another follows, "Hey ho!" In Japanese, Shy Guys are named Heiho (romanized as "Heyho"). Thus, the joke doesn't work in English. | |

The fight against King Bob-omb has a time limit of four minutes. Towards the end of Neo Bowser Castle, the brothers need to race a five-minute timer to disable the castle's cannon before it can fire on Peach's Castle again. | |

Removable Shell: When it's still early enough in the game that you won't auto-defeat them, during combat ordinary Koopas at Twinsy Tropics will occasionally, on their attack, charge in their shells and launch really fast at Mario/Luigi; hammering them at just the right time will stop the shell and eject them for a moment, dazed and vulnerable, so you can hammer the shell back at their heads and kill them automatically. Just wearing a shirt underneath, thankfully due to graphical limitations we don't see anything we don't want to. | |

New Powers as the Plot Demands: Starlow apparently knows an attack called "Supernova Sparkle" which she promptly uses on Ludwig and Larry via an Offscreen Moment of Awesome (after they started pummeling Mario and the gang due to them not having a pass to Bowser's Castle). This is the first time her offensive capabilities are shown. The various Papercraft Toadette creates for the heroes have abilities that cater to the upcoming papercraft battle. (Luigi's hammer attack bypassing spiny Papercraft enemies, Peach's umbrella deflecting projectiles, Yoshi's Overly-Long Tongue needed to cross gaps, etc.) | |

Chuck Cunningham Syndrome | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_c33ba0a8 | comment |
Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: On the Mario & Luigi side, the Elite Trionote Corporal Paraplonk, Private Goomp, and Sergeant Guy never show up in the game, nor are they ever referenced. Their absence is baffling, as they were still working for Bowser at the end of Dream Team. In addition, this is the first Mario & Luigi game to not feature Toadsworth. Heck, this trope applies for pretty much every character that was introuced in the previous Mario & Luigi games, Starlow aside. On the Paper Mario side, meanwhile, if a character wasn't in Sticker Star, they're not in this game. Even among those characters, Paper Wigglernote Although a normal Wiggler has a similar personality and role to him, Gooper Blooper, and Mizzter Blizzard are absent. Kersti too. Most importantly, Paper Luigi is absent until the Music Player is unlocked, where he makes The Cameo. Even some Paper Mooks are not safe. Paper Buzzy Beetles, Paper Cheep Cheeps and Paper Pokeys don't get a chance to fight alongside their "real" counterparts. | |

Teeth-Clenched Teamwork | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_c3648b87 | comment |
Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: The Bowsers and Kameks take an instant dislike to one another, and always try to one-up, insult, or generally take out the other, though the latter eventually develop a grudging respect for each other. Bowser and Paper Bowser even planned to betray each other near the end of the game, the plan only failing because they both came up with the exact same plan and they're about as strong as each other. | |

Starlow apparently knows an attack called "Supernova Sparkle" which she promptly uses on Ludwig and Larry via an Offscreen Moment of Awesome (after they started pummeling Mario and the gang due to them not having a pass to Bowser's Castle). This is the first time her offensive capabilities are shown. | |

Metal Slime | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_c923e7a6 | comment |
Metal Slime: Sombrero Guys, the enemy who gives the most Exp and Coins in the game: besides starting off with eight copies, having a hard-to-dodge attack, and being fast enough to pull off two attacks against a non-overleveled party (essentially giving it Lightning Bruiser status), it has a chance to run away, and will do so if it's the only enemy left. Urchins. They give lots of experience when defeated and they won't attack, but if you decide to attack them, you have to finish them in one turn or else they'll self-destruct and hit everyone with massive damage. If they're the last enemy on the field, they'll run away. | |

Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_ca85e684 | comment |
Power Trio: The three heroes serve this role. Mario is a powerhouse and Luigi a defensive wall as per normal, with Paper Mario serving as a Mechanically Unusual Fighter. Because of how the battle formation is laid out, Paper Mario is often attacked in different manners to Mario or Luigi. Outside of battle, Mario serves as a confident Jack of All Stats (to the best of his ability), Luigi serves as the Cowardly Lion, and Paper Mario as The Smart Guy, the character responsible for figuring out most of the Trio moves. | |

The Paper Bob-ombs will also attempt this once they're defeated by charging into the Mario Bros. But their kamikaze charge can take out their allies if it's countered. | |

Tactical Suicide Boss: The Hammer Bros that act as prison guards confiscated the gang's command blocks as to make it impossible for them to attack the Hammer Bros. They would've been outright undefeatable if it weren't for the fact that their attack pattern, which involves throwing several hammers before dashing into a Mario brother in a fit of rage, allows them to instead be defeated by counters. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: For the first time in the series, the game introduces a Sprint Shoes mechanic to allow for speedier movement. This and the Trio Jump allows for faster and easier navigation in the overworld. The endless tutorials that plague the earlier games are no more. Here, when you're taught a new mechanic, there's a fast explanation of how to do it and the more in-depth version is added to a guide you can view at any time. And when a character asks if you want a tutorial, they actually take "no" for an answer this time instead of prodding you repeatedly. Holding the X button will have all three characters block, which doesn't prevent taking damage entirely, but it does cut the damage in half. Quite useful when you're not confident in your ability to dodge the incoming attack. To avoid confusion when enemies attack (since Paper Mario stands between the Bros.), the game will indicate which character is being attacked with a red circle if it's an attack that will only be aimed at one of them. If the attack can hit multiple parts of your team, you're given dotted lines under each Bro, but you have to spot the tell as per usual. Digging Beans out of the ground in Dream Team involves Mario jumping out of the ground each and every time. Here, Beans can be dug out by the Trio Drill without jumping out and the Trio Drill's dash ability allows you to collect multiple adjacent Beans at once. If you fail a required quest enough times, the game will give you the option to skip it. However, you don't get the medal for completing it. It's not gone for good, though, as you can return to the Lakitu Info Center to try again later. Boo Biscuits return from Dream Team, and they work the exact same way; your team loses their turns and becomes immune to damage while also dealing none, making them good for working on dodging enemy attacks for practice and Expert Challenges. After their lackluster reception in Dream Team, the gyro controls are completely absent in this entry, to the point that the Dropchopper from the same game has you control it with the Circle Pad instead. Cutscenes can be fast-forwarded, allowing you to move things along quicker and get back to the game, whether you don't care about the story or just want to get back to a boss fight you lost. After Bowser's Castle takes flight, if you didn't get the chance to complete some dodge challenges, you can still fight those enemies later in the game. (Of note is that said enemies never have normal stronger versions and are put together in a secluded area). | |

Action Bomb | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_dae3999d | comment |
Action Bomb: Besides the usual Bob-omb mooks, King Bob-omb appears as a late-game boss, blowing himself up for huge damage after a countdown (Which can be delayed by countering a certain attack or using a particular battle card). You can actually beat him by using damage-canceling cards and waiting him out, although you get no rewards that way. Urchins also behave in this fashion, being entirely passive and yielding a nice sum of coins and EXP if you manage to take them out in one attack. Fail, and they'll explode in a shower of spikes, hitting everything on the battlefield several times for a high amount of damage. | |

If they hit Mario or Luigi while being thrown or coming back, the Boomerang will bounce off the brother and land on the ground, causing the Boomerang Bro. to go and fetch it. If said boomerang's a folded up Paper Boomerang Bro., it will instead unfold itself to fight alongside the others while the original thrower switches out for another boomerang (sometimes another Paper Boomerang Bro). | |

And even during this, Nabbit will still try to attack, using his sneaking skills in an attempt to confuse the player and nab the brother's hammer just so that he can whack them with it. | |

Achievement System: Expert Challenges make a return from Dream Team. In addition to returning challenges like "get an Excellent with a Bros. or Trio attack" and "dodge moves from this type of enemy multiple times in a row", there's several new ones like "use Battle Cards", "get a large number of First Strikes", "defeat Paper enemies with fire", and "get an Excellent with a Bros. or Trio attack multiple times in a row". Additionally, the Attackathon and Battle Ring minigames, rather than awarding their own prizes, now have Expert Challenges tied to getting high ranks in them. Instead of the rewards being given to you as loot drops when you reach the required number of points, you exchange the points at any gear shop for your rewards. The medals that are earned from missions. Getting enough Coins would net some rare cards, and extra coins are obtained by replaying some missions in Hard Mode. | |

Big Damn Heroes | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_eb81c601 | comment |
Paper Mario's Big Damn Heroes seems to bring Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time to mind (small fry take out the main Bros. in one hit somehow, then the guest Mario saves the day). | |

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_eb8f64a6 | comment |
No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: The two Bowser Juniors initially decide to destroy the Paper Mario World book so that they won't ever have to be separated. When the moment of truth comes, however, they hesitate at the last moment and decide to keep the book around. After their defeat, with the book mere feet away from Mario, the two feebly beg their fathers to grab the book so they can quickly destroy it, but it falls on deaf ears. | |

Leader Wannabe: It's revealed in this game that Ludwig only thinks he's the leader of the Koopalings; the others say that they never voted on a leader, and consider each other equals. | |

The Bowsers don't get along particularly well; their first meeting ends in a Big Ball of Violence between them. Heck, it's later directly invoked by both of them. | |

Sprite/Polygon Mix: Much like the last game, the world is rendered in 3D while all the characters and items are sprites. Ironically, this means that the "regular" characters are just as flat as their paper counterparts. | |

Decomposite Character: While multiple forms of Mario being playable together is nothing new, this is the first time one plays a major role and is given an actual reason (odd as it may be) for being present (if you don't count fighting alongside his younger self in Partners In Time, that is). Bowser gets two of these with his "Paper" and "Dry" selves. | |

Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_f09ac6a6 | comment |
Chekhov M.I.A.: It has nothing to do with the story, but the Koopalings are the only bosses not present in the Battle Ring. This can be excused by how two pairs are fought twice each and the last three are only a battle on a technicality, but Dry Bowser, the Final Boss of the Battle Ring, actually summons the aforementioned Dual Bosses to assist him in battle. | |

Ninja Log: Ninjis use these to make themselves immune against attacks. The trick to hitting them is to use an attack that's the opposite of what they're expecting (represented by a speech bubble above their heads when you hit them with an attack). | |

Wake-Up Call Boss | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_f4a0408f | comment |
Wake-Up Call Boss: Roy and Wendy prove themselves to be a challenge the first time you face them, using several attacks that can potentially do a lot of damage if not avoided. Though the fight is made a bit easier if one of them goes down, the other will start using a devastating attack that can potentially one-hit kill a brother if it hits, though if it's rebounded it will do a lot of damage to THEM. | |

Suspiciously Similar Substitute | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_f5a3e496 | comment |
Suspiciously Similar Substitute: At one point, a Paper Goomba informs the bros. of some vital information, like the Goomba party members from the first two Paper Mario games. Unlike them, however, this Paper Goomba isn't such an honest guy. Even though Paper Wiggler never shows up, a normal Wiggler more or less acts like him. He even goes through an abridged version of his character arcnote forest under attack, inconvenienced by Paper Kamek, transforms into Flutter. Dream Team had Walker Guys in Neo Bowser Castle, blue-robed Shy Guys that walked around Chain Chomps. This game's Neo Bowser Castle has regular red Shy Guys, rather than Walker Guys, serve the same purpose. | |

Cosmic Keystone | |
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Video Game) / int_f6b7820b | comment |
Cosmic Keystone: All Mario and Luigi as well as Paper Mario games deal with searching for a powerful artifact and a group of them, respectively. This game's cosmic artifact is the book where the Paper Mario world came from. In a change of pace, it's actually in the heroes' possession for the first third of the game, and the villains' eventual endgame is not to take control of it, but to destroy it. | |

Depending on the Writer: The book world version of Kamek acts more like a manic version of the main Kamek’s Beleaguered Assistant persona, than the slightly slow-speaking, Faux Affably Evil characterization he displayed in Sticker Star or his following appearance in Color Splash. The only time the book world Kamek acts with his Sticker Star persona in this game is when threatening Wiggler before zapping him for their boss fight. | |
