Power Jump is a badge in Paper Mario and Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. When it is worn, Mario can use the Power Jump move, a jump attack that costs two Flower Points. It condenses the jump attack into a single hit and, when its Action Command is timed correctly, deals damage equal to the normal full jump damage plus two.

It is depicted on a sticker in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, resembling its appearance from the original Paper Mario.

In Paper Mario, Power Jump is given by Goompa after returning him to Goomba Village. It is used as a tutorial on how to use badges. Due to this, it is the only badge that Merluvlee never gives a prediction about.

In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Power Jump can be bought from the Lovely Howz of Badges for fifty coins, from the Pianta Parlor for thirty-four pianta tokens with the Special Card, and can be rarely dropped after battle by Goombas, Gloombas, Buzzy Beetles, and Spike Tops.
