The '''Garnet Star''' is the sixth [[Crystal Stars|Crystal Star]], found at [[Pennington]]'s home, the [[Poshley Sanctum]] in the game ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. This was hidden in the painting at the Sanctum for safety, while a fake one was put out in the open to fool any would-be thieves, including the [[Shadow Sirens]], [[Bowser]], and [[Kammy Koopa]].

The '''Garnet Star''' is the sixth of the [[Crystal Stars]] [[Mario]] collects in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', obtained after finishing Chapter 6: 3 Days of Excess.


This Crystal Star will teach [[Mario]] the move [[Showstopper]], which costs two [[Star Power (Paper Mario)|SP]]. To use this move, the buttons must be pressed in the order that they appear on the screen. If used correctly, it may defeat all on-screen enemies with one blow; however it does not work on bosses.
The Garnet Star is kept in a secret area of the [[Poshley Sanctum]] in [[Poshley Heights]], which the Sanctum's owner, [[Pennington]], did not even know about. A fake Garnet Star is on display in the main hall of the Sanctum, which is meant to attract tourists and trick thieves, which works on the [[Shadow Sirens]] and [[Doopliss]], as well as [[Bowser]] and [[Kammy Koopa]], as they confuse it with the real thing. This makes the fake Garnet Star an actual {{wp|red herring}}, fitting the detective theme of Chapter 6. Upon finding the real Garnet Star, it teaches Mario the move [[Showstopper]].


It is similar to the [[Star Spirit]] ability, [[Up & Away]], from ''[[Paper Mario]]''. However, Star Points are awarded if enemies are defeated in this manner, unlike the Up & Away ability.
During the final battle with the [[Shadow Queen]], when the Crystal Stars spread out to the locations in which they were found, the Garnet Star returns to the Poshley Sanctum, where Pennington (realizing Mario is not Luigi), [[Toodles]], [[Goldbob]], [[Bub]], and [[Sylvia (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Sylvia]] root for Mario and his team before they defeat the Shadow Queen.


==Trivia==
==Names in other languages==
*The Garnet Star is the only [[Crystal Stars|Crystal Star]] that is not earned from defeating a chapter boss, since [[Smorg|the boss]] is already fought on the [[Excess Express]].
