Power Rush is a badge in Paper Mario and Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door . In Paper Mario, it is found in Peach's Castle, inside of the castle's library between a couple of shelves; it can be obtained either by Mario or by Princess Peach, who can send it to Mario via a Mysterious Treasure Chest (which Mario can access from the other treasure chest at Shooting Star Summit). In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, it can be bought from the Lovely Howz of Badges in Rogueport for fifty coins, bought from the Pianta Parlor for thirty-four pianta tokens with the Gold Card, or rarely held or dropped by Paratroopas and Shady Koopas. If Mario equips it, when he enters the Danger state (which occurs when his HP reaches between two and five points), his attack power increases by two. This badge works alongside others that activate when Mario is in Peril or Danger, such as Last Stand and Close Call. In Paper Mario, the attack power bonus from Mega Rush overrides the bonus from Power Rush. In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, the attack power bonuses from Power Rush and Mega Rush will stack. Power Rush P has the same effect, but works exclusively on Mario's partner.

In the English version of the Nintendo GameCube version of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and the English version of the Nintendo Switch remake, the badge is embossed with the letter "D", which likely stands for "Danger", the state that is mentioned in the badge's description. However, in the Japanese version of the original game and the Japanese, Chinese, and Korean versions of the remake, the letter is instead "P" (likely for "Pinch", the Danger state's original Japanese name), making the badge resemble its original design from Paper Mario.

In Paper Mario, when this badge or Mega Rush takes effect, afterimages follow Mario as he attacks.

Merluvlee's prediction in Paper Mario[edit ]

  • "I see...a Power Rush Badge. In Peach's Castle, way up in the sky, there's a room with bookshelves. The Badge is on the floor between the shelves."
