| | '''Tidal Wave''' is one of [[Sushie|Sushie's]] attacks in the game ''[[Paper Mario]]''. During the attack, she launches blasts of water against all enemies. All the player has to do to get the best effect is press A, B, and C-Down as shown on the screen. Tidal Wave is an [[Ultra Rank]] attack and costs six [[Flower Point]]s to use. |

| '''Tidal Wave''' is a [[List of moves|move]] in ''[[Paper Mario]]''. This attack costs six [[Flower Point]]s, and it can be used by [[Sushie]] upon reaching [[Ultra Rank]]. In this attack Sushie bounces across the screen hitting all enemies with water. Because this move is imbued with the water element, some enemies will take more or less damage from the attack depending on their weakness or resistance to water. The action command involves executing the most correct inputs ({{button|n64|A}}, {{button|n64|B}}, {{button|n64|Cdown}}) within a time limit. The inputs pop-up one after another whenever the latest one is successfully executed, and for every successful input the attack will do 1 more damage, up to 14. However, without cycle-mashing,<ref>{{cite|language=en|author=Jdaster64|date=September 13, 2021|url=supermariofiles.wordpress.com/2021/09/13/tidal-wave|title=Tidal Wave, and Breaking the Limits of Human Perception|publisher=Wordpress.com|accessdate=May 28, 2023}}</ref> reaching anything close to 14 is unrealistic, and in practice the expected damage output of Tidal Wave is 6. | |

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *On the [[Nintendo 64]], if more than 13 button inputs are pressed, the game crashes.<ref>{{cite|language=en|author=Stryder7x|date=April 20, 2016|url=www.youtube.com/watch?v=DU5OrWrl8DY|title=Using Sushie's Tidal Wave Crashes ''Paper Mario''|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=April 21, 2016}}</ref> Furthermore, if this move is used in the encounter against [[Huff N. Puff]] while multiple [[Tuff Puff]]s are present, the game can be crashed with even fewer inputs.
| |
| **However, on the [[Virtual Console]], the game does not crash but instead maxes out after 14 buttons are pressed, and the 15th button icon location overflows and gets stuck on the status bar. Other HUD issues are experienced as well.
| |
| *On the Wii Virtual Console version, when this move is used, the game slows down during the part in which the screen is covered in water by this move.
