“This one is unmistakably spade-shaped. We'll call it...Spade Island.”
Captain T. Ode, Paper Mario: The Origami King

Spade Island is one of the 11 accessible islands in the Great Sea in Paper Mario: The Origami King. It is found in the northern part of the sea, charted in territory D-1 on the Sea Chart. As the name suggests, it is not much more than a spade-shaped island with a few Toads in need of rescue. This is one of the four suit islands to be found, along with Club Island, Diamond Island, and Heart Island. There are no Collectible Treasures to be found on the island.

Layout

Upon arriving at the island, Captain T. Ode notes its shape and names it accordingly. Once Mario and Olivia get off the boat and onto the dock, they discover a red Toad stuck in a large barrel in the center of the island. He asks Mario to find his friends, stuck in different places around the island. After Mario finds four other Toads, who insert themselves into the barrel, he must push each Toad into the barrel to break it open and free the red Toad. He thanks Mario for saving him and marks a spot on the Sea Chart where a treasure is to be found, which is actually located shortly southwest of this island. The red Toad then realizes his vest is missing, prompting his friends to cover him up in the meantime.

There is a stone Toad statue on the northern tip of the island. Mario can examine the statue to see a diagram indicating that this island forms a baseball diamond layout with three other islands, Spade Island corresponding to the second base.

Hidden Toads

After they return to The Princess Peach, these Toads are seen at the ship's bow; the red Toad without his vest is embarrassedly "making a scene" while his four friends share a table by themselves. They are also depicted in a Collectible Treasure of a Spade Island Barrel (No. 83), which is found by diving at a spot marked by the red Toad.

The purple Toad is crammed in a barrel near the statue.
The blue Toad is stuck to the back of a folding chair occupied by an origami Goomba.
The green Toad is crumpled inside one of the coconuts in a tree Mario must hammer to drop.
The yellow Toad is in a Hidden Block. Mario must fill in the Not-Bottomless Hole covering the barrels, find another Hidden Block next to the barrels, then get onto the highest barrel and jump to find the Hidden Block containing the Toad.
The red Toad is stuck in a barrel. After four other Toads are rescued, they insert themselves into the barrel's slots. Mario must push each Toad deeper into the slot to break open the barrel, releasing the Toad.

  • The barrel that the red Toad is stuck in is based on the children’s game Pop-Up Pirate, where players stick swords into a barrel while trying to not make a pirate launch out of it.
