Editing 65th Trivia Quiz-Off

[[File:Quirkquiz.png|thumb|250px|[[Mario]] and [[Goombella]] being challenged in the 65th Trivia Quiz-Off]]

The '''65th Trivia Quiz-Off''', originally known as the '''65th Super Fun Quirk Quiz''', is a quiz that appears in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' along with its [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch)|Switch remake]]. It is hosted at [[Petal Meadows]], where the gate to the [[Shhwonk Fortress]] is. [[Mario]] triggers this quiz by pressing {{button|gcn|A}} when near the [[Thwomp]], and when he does, the Thwomp will open its eyes and start the quiz. If Mario answers three questions wrong, he must fight four [[Cleft]]s, but if he correctly answers five questions, the Thwomp will then begrudgingly allow Mario to pass without triggering a battle. It succeeds the [[64th Trivia Quiz-Off]] from ''[[Paper Mario]]'', and precedes the [[66th Trivia Quiz-Off]] held in [[X-Naut Fortress]].

*[[66th Trivia Quiz-Off]]

*[[List of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door quiz questions and answers in other languages|List of ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' quiz questions and answers in other languages]]

*In the Japanese, French, German, Italian, and Spanish versions, the first question has "Luigi's underwear" as the fourth option.

*In the Japanese, French, German, Italian, and Spanish versions, as well as the English version of the remake, the second question is how much a [[Mushroom]] and [[Fire Flower]] cost total at the shop in [[Petal Meadows]] instead of a [[Mr. Softener]] and Fire Flower. The answer is 12 coins. However, in the English ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' demo in GameCube Demo Disc Version 18, this question asked for the price of a Mushroom and a Fire Flower like in the other versions.

**Additionally, the Official Nintendo Player's Guide states on page 29 that the second question asks how much a Mushroom and Fire Flower cost total which is only true for non-English versions of the game.

* In the GameCube version of the game, the references to [[Koopa Koot]] and [[Toad Town]] were mistranslated as "Kooskoos" and "Mushville", respectively. The Switch remake restores both.
