Super Block
Mario using a Super Block at Dry Dry Desert

Super Blocks are a type of block in Paper Mario . They can first upgrade Mario's partner to a Super Rank and then to an Ultra Rank after Mario receives the Ultra Stone from Raphael the Raven in Chapter 5. Super Blocks have a blue disk visibly spinning inside of them. Merluvlee knows the locations of the Super Blocks, of which there are sixteen in total. Merlon would go on to receive a similar power in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door .

Profiles[edit ]

  • Merluvlee's predictions
    • I see...a Super Block. You descend below Toad Town and head left through several blocks and a pipe. You go right after the pipe until you can ride a platform up through the ceiling. You walk right and fall through the floor to find the block.
    • I see...a Super Block. Deep down under Toad Town, you break the floor, fall, and then go left. Beyond the Dark Koopas' gate, you stand on a movable block and jump to find hidden blocks. You cross them for the prize.
    • I see...a Super Block. In the dark below Toad Town, under the platform that sinks if you step on it, is a pipe leading farther down. Powerful Metal Blocks stop your progress, but with a powerful Hammer, you smash them to get through.
    • I see...a Super Block. In the tunnels below Toad Town, in a frozen room on the path leading to a very cold, frostbitten city... You move to the right and find the pipe to the town above. You move to the left first and find the block waiting.
    • I see...a Super Block. You ride over the water to the island in the Toad Town pond and climb into the pipe. In a secluded chamber beneath the water, you find the block.
    • I see...a Super Block. You climb the mountain just above Mt. Rugged station, and you break the big block on the left side. You walk forward and find what you seek.
    • I see...a Super Block. In a place of rest in the cruel desert, is a lush oasis unknown to most wanderers. You find the block along the edge of the refreshing, life-giving waters.
    • I see...a Super Block. You find a jump pad in the dusty depths of the hidden ruins in the desert. The block lies beside it.
    • I see...a Super Block. You climb to the upper level of Tubba Blubba's Castle and keep going left. When you reach the bottom of the stairs, you find it near the door.
    • I see...a Super Block. It is in the Toy Box in the room that has a Ferris wheel and platforms that move up and down. You jump to the highest green block to find it waiting.
    • I see...a Super Block. In a jungle you navigate the water on the back of a fishy friend. You find the block on an island across a bridge.
    • I see...a Super Block. You ride down a trapeze in the volcano and go right into a room with fire bars. You avoid touching the rotating arms of flame. Your reward is a Super Block.
    • I see...a Super Block. Deep inside the volcano, when you see the second rope, you turn right and see another one. You ride that rope instead. When the rock wall pales behind you, you let go. The block's on a rock platform.
    • I see...a Super Block. There is a yellow gatekeeper in Flower Fields. You go through its gate, over the thorny patch then up the stairs to the left. You fight your way left to find the block.
    • I see...a Super Block. You explore Flower Fields to the right of the big tree that grows at the entrance. You move ! platforms by jumping on them, so with Spin Jumps and hovering help, you continue. You use a jump step hidden on the roadside and find the block up above.
    • I see...a Super Block. On Shiver Mountain you see stairs going up to the left as you climb to the palace. The Super Block waits in the cold for you.
