It has been requested that this article be rewritten. Reason: Second-person writing
There are a total of 85 different badges in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and 87 in the Nintendo Switch remake.
Badges that have a "P" at the end of their names are identical to their non-"P" counterparts, but affect Mario's partner. Equipping more than one of the same badge doubles the FP cost of the move for each extra badge equipped. Equipping more than one of the same attack badge increases the attack's power by 1 and/or increases the duration of the applied status effect by 1. Equipping multiple Charge badges gives Mario or his partner 1 extra power when charging. When both the W Emblem and L Emblem are equipped, Mario's clothes will change into Waluigi's clothes.

|
Electrifies Mario, causing most enemies to take 1 damage when they physically touch him. Prevents HP-leeching attacks as well as allowing Mario to safely jump on electrified enemies without getting hurt. Bandits cannot swipe Mario's belongings if Mario wears this badge. | 62 |
1 - Like other piercing attacks, Iron Clefts are immune to this.
2 - There is a common misconception that the Feeling Fine badges have an effect on Poison Shrooms. In reality, all they do is stop the user from being poisoned. There is a slight chance that the user will not be poisoned or lose half HP, but instead will be fully healed. This is simply a random occurrence; wearing these badges makes no difference. This has been proven by extensive testing.
3 - All badges that can be stolen from an enemy can also be dropped after battle; the reverse is not true.
Unobtainable badges
Badge | BP Needed | Effect |
---|---|---|
All or Nothing P |
4 | Hit Action Commands, up ally's Attack. Fail, it goes to 0. Partner variant of All or Nothing. Works as described. |
Debug |
1 | Has an identical icon to Zap Tap. When equipped, Mario and his partner will always perform all Action Commands perfectly, perform all Stylish Moves, and Superguard against all attacks. Additionally, the Run Away meter will fill on its own. However, this badge fails to work while frozen, asleep or otherwise immobilized. Power Bounce and Multibonk will continue until the move is forcibly stopped at a certain number of bounces depending on the target (about 5-9 bounces for bosses, 9999 bounces for standard enemies). Special Moves are unaffected. |
FP Drain P |
2 | Drops Mario's ally's Attack by 1 but regain 1 FP per attack. Partner variant of FP Drain that costs 2 BP instead of 1. Works as described. |
Happy Flower P |
N/A | Would have likely allowed Mario's partner to occasionally restore 1 FP. Only the image is complete. No code is associated with this badge. |
Lucky Day P |
7 | When Mario's ally is attacked, make foes miss more often. Partner variant of Lucky Day. Works as described. |
Lucky Start P |
2 | Has an identical icon to Lucky Start, but affects Mario's partner instead. |
Mega Jump |
3 | Allows Mario to perform a more powerful jump attack that costs 6 FP. This attack does ((Jump Power × 2) + 4) damage to one enemy. The attack animation is identical to Power Jump and has the same Stylish Move. Each additional copy of this badge that is equipped doubles the FP cost and increases the attack power by 4. |
Mega Quake |
4 | Allows Mario to perform a more powerful hammer attack that costs 7 FP. This attack does 10 piercing damage to all grounded enemies. The attack animation is similar to Quake Hammer, but the Action Command is faster and there are no Stylish Moves. Each additional copy of this badge that is equipped doubles the FP cost and increases the attack power by 4. |
Mega Smash |
1 | Allows Mario to perform a more powerful hammer attack that costs 6 FP. This attack does (Hammer Power + 4) damage to one enemy. The attack animation is identical to Power Smash and has the same Stylish Moves. Each additional copy of this badge that is equipped doubles the FP cost and increases the attack power by 4. |
Pity Flower P |
3 | When Mario's ally takes damage, occasionally recover 1 FP. Partner variant of Pity Flower. Works as described. |
Super Charge |
2 | Allows Mario to use a move called "Super Charge" for 2 FP. With one copy of the badge this move is identical to Charge, boosting attack power by 2. However, each additional copy equipped doubles the FP cost and increases the charge power by 2, compared to additional equipped copies of Charge only increasing the charge power by 1. |
Super Charge P |
2 | Allows Mario's partner to use a move called "Super Charge" for 2 FP. With one copy of the badge this move is identical to Charge P, boosting attack power by 2. However, each additional copy equipped doubles the FP cost and increases the charge power by 2, compared to additional equipped copies of Charge P only increasing the charge power by 1. |
Triple Dip |
6 | During battle, become able to use three items in one turn. Similar to equipping two Double Dip badges, but only enables Triple Dip in battle. |
Triple Dip P |
N/A | Would have likely allowed Mario's partner to use up to three items in one turn. "Triple Dip P" and this icon are displayed in battle under the Items menu if both Double Dip P badges are worn. However, unlike with Triple Dip, Triple Dip P is not coded as a separate badge. |
Unknown 1 |
2 | No known function. Possibly related to the Damage Dodge badge due to the design similarities. |
Unknown 1 P |
2 | No known function. Possibly related to the Damage Dodge P badge due to the design similarities. |
Unknown 2 |
N/A | Possibly an early Ice Power or Ice Smash. Only the image is complete. No code is associated with this badge. |
W Emblem (early) |
N/A | An earlier coloration of the W Emblem, only found in the demo. This version could also have been used for wearing Waluigi's clothes, rather than requiring both the W Emblem and L Emblem badges to be equipped. |
Trivia
- The Japanese version is missing the number of obtained/total badges in the pause menu's Badges screen.
- The Official Nintendo Player's Guide states on pages 61 and 108 that Damage Dodge P can be found in Pirate's Grotto, which is only true for the Japanese version of the game.
