Powder Puff

Template:Item-infobox Template:Quote2 The Powder Puff is a Thing in Paper Mario: Sticker Star. It is hidden in Shy Guy Jungle. In the area to the right of the final room with one of the Bridge Parts, rather than hopping across the red, carnivorous flower to the right, Mario must stay on the left side and hop over the bushes toward the background. Moving away to the left reveals a secret area with the Powder Puff in the northwest corner. Once collected, it remains in Mario's Album until it is turned into a Sticker at a Sling-a-Thing station. Once it has been used as a sticker, it returns to its original position. It can also be purchased from the Shady Toad for 240 Coins.

As a sticker, the Powder Puff takes up only one square in Mario's album. If and when it is used in battle, it appears in front of Mario, effectively defending him from a majority of enemy attacks for five turns, making it the most effective absorption Thing. It may even deflect projectiles and soak up liquids, wringing them out toward the enemies.

The Powder Puff can also be placed into the Sticker Museum as #47, alongside the Car Sponge and the regular Sponge. Its description notes its delicacy and confuses it for a pillow, with the real Pillow being mistaken for a trampoline.
