Quizmo appears throughout ''Paper Mario'' in different towns and villages, and if [[Mario]] speaks with him, Quizmo will transport him to a stage and, along with his assistant [[Vanna T.]], ask Mario a question. If Mario answers Chuck's quiz correctly, he will be rewarded with a [[Star Piece (Paper Mario series)|Star Piece]], and if he answers wrong, he will receive nothing. In the latter case, the same question will be asked the next time Mario speaks with him, thereby still allowing the player to receive all the Star Pieces. After quizzing Mario, Quizmo will teleport away to a different location. In all, Quizmo will ask sixty-four questions, provided Mario makes the effort to find him and accept his quizzes.
Quizmo appears throughout ''Paper Mario'' in different towns and villages, and if [[Mario]] speaks with him, Quizmo will transport him to a game show-like stage and, along with his assistant [[Vanna T.]], ask Mario a question. If Mario answers Quizmo's quiz correctly, he will be rewarded with a [[Star Piece (Paper Mario series)|Star Piece]], and if he answers wrong, he will receive nothing. In the latter case, the same question will be asked the next time Mario speaks with him, thereby still allowing the player to receive all the Star Pieces. After quizzing Mario, Quizmo will teleport away to a different location. In all, Quizmo will ask sixty-four questions, provided Mario makes the effort to find him and accept his quizzes.


If Mario answers all of his questions correctly, Quizmo states that, now that he has found someone with all the answers, he can finally retire as quiz master. After Mario defeats [[Bowser]], Quizmo, along with Vanna T., can be seen in [[Toad Town]] outside the [[Toad Town Dojo|dojo]]; when spoken to, Quizmo will jokingly ask Mario if he wants to participate in another quiz before stating he is in Toad Town merely to attend the festival celebrating the defeat of the [[Koopa Troop]]. Quizmo can also be seen in the parade that plays during the ''Paper Mario'' credits, expelling fireworks from his hat.

*Chuck Quizmo's quiz was the beginning of the running gag of quizzes in the [[Paper Mario (series)|''Paper Mario'' series]] taking place in a game show stage, despite Mario never moving from where he found Quizmo (such as [[Koopa Village]]). This quiz also had the first audience in a ''Paper Mario'' game, though it had no function.
