8 Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam Bros - Ranking up, Toadette's Giant Papercraft

Dear Readers,

Today I'll talk about reaching Shell Rank and the events introducing the giant papercraft figures.

I continue to go after the Bowsers and face more enemies. I level up enough to graduate from Mushroom Rank to Shell Rank. It's Mario and I give him the stache boost.

There's another block with that same mini-game from before. It seems I can play it in lots of places and go for the high score.

I graduate to Shell Rank with Luigi too. I give him the DEF UP+ boost. Not sure if these are the right things to do! But we'll see.

Soon, we come across a large bunch of Paper Toads. They flee towards us. Behind them is a Paper Magikoopa and he's built a large papercraft Goomba out of cardboard! Suspicious jazzy music plays here and it's pretty cool. The real Goombas dump it on the ground, blocking the path and Paper Magikoopa gives out to them. Then he flies off for reinforcements. The Paper Toads run away too.

We all stand in front of the big papercraft Goomba blocking the way and we hear a familiar voice behind us. It's Toadette! She takes a look at it and gets super inspired. She tells us when she's finished with her papercraft, it'll make this one look like a used take-out box. She needs more Paper Toad helpers though, and the ones we just met ran off in a different direction. They ran towards Toad Village and the papercraft Goomba is blocking the way to Doop Doop Dunes. Toadette waits for us here.

On arriving in Toad Village, a Paper Toad catching event starts! We're to herd the Paper Toads in a pen and not let them escape through the entrance. It's quite short and easy. Though there are 20 of them, they're not too much trouble. Thankfully so! Herding mini-games can be pretty annoying!

Toadette shows up and thanks us. She asks us to find as many Toads as possible for her papercraft construction. Lakitu hears this and comes along with his Paper Toad carrying service. We'll find out more next time.
