Super Mario
For the Donkey Kong 64 enemy of the same name, see Super Block (enemy).

Super Blocks are special objects which only appear in Paper Mario.

Effects[]

The purpose of the Super Blocks is to upgrade Mario's partners, strengthening their attacks and unlocking new skills. Initially, each partner can only be upgraded once to the Super Rank. After Raphael the Raven gives Mario the Ultra Stone in Chapter 5, partners can then be upgraded a second time to the Ultra Rank.

Merluvlee can provide hints to the locations of Super Blocks that Mario is presently able to reach for the price of 30 coins per hint. If there are no Super Blocks that can currently be reached at that point, Merluvlee provides a refund.
