Mario using Power Lift.

Power Lift is Special Move that can be used by Mario in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. It raises the Attack and Defense of Mario and his current partner for 3 turns, using up 3 Star Points. The success of the Action Command determines the amount of points each stat is raised by. It cannot be used if Mario has the Allergic status effect.

To use the move, Mario must have the so-called Gold Star, which is obtained at the end of Chapter 3. The Action Command involves a 9-square grid in which red Attack arrows, Poison Mushrooms and blue Defense arrows appear periodically. The player must move a cursor up, down, left and right with the Control Stick, and press A to select as many arrows as possible. Each arrow only lasts a few seconds. Each arrow adds an amount to a blue bar, of which each bar filled adds a point to the particular stat. If the player hits a Poison Mushroom square, the cursor moves at half speed for a while, which is obviously a negative effect.
