Flip Meter
The Flip Meter is a meter in Super Paper Mario. When Mario uses his Flip move, it will start decreasing. When the meter is empty (after about ten seconds), Mario will lose one HP, and the meter will immediately refill. If Mario flips to 2-D, then the meter will slowly start getting the points it lost back, but it does not need to be full for Mario to flip to 3-D. The Flip Meter only appears in 3-D or when it's getting its points back. If the heroes collect the Mario Catch Card in the Flopside Pit of 100 Trials, the Flip Meter will never decrease, enabling Mario to stay in 3-D for as long as he likes. However, choosing to obtain the Catch Card is not very practical, since Mario is never in 3-D for extended periods of time during his adventure.
