When [[Mario]] and [[Goombella]] are in [[Rogueport Underground]] to find the pipe to [[Petal Meadows]], one of the Blooper's tentacles is blocking the way. Mario has to either hit it with his [[Hammer]] or jump on it, angering the Blooper and initiating a battle.

At the start of the battle, it hangs off the ceiling, leaving the player to attack its tentacles. This marks the first game in which a Blooper's tentacles are referred to as such and fought separately. After both the L. Tentacle and R. Tentacle are defeated, the Blooper will fall to the ground and become vulnerable, before standing back up and attacking with its ink.

Following its defeat, the Blooper starts to squirt itself up to the ceiling and crashes, absent for the remainder of the game. However, in the credits of the remake, where it shoots ink at some of [[Rogueport]]'s residents, causing them to run off.  
Following its defeat, the Blooper starts to squirt itself up to the ceiling and crashes, never seen again in the game. However, it reappears in the credits of the remake, where it shoots ink at some of [[Rogueport]]'s residents, causing them to run off.  


Normally sized Bloopers also appear in the game during Bowser's post-Chapter 4 intermission, in which he supposedly swallows one by accident.

Blooper appears during the ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' arc in volume 34 of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]''. Goombella and [[Koops]] encounter the Blooper in Rogueport's sewers while searching for Mario's missing cap, and it appears that the Blooper is wearing it. It refuses to take the cap off because it is going on a date soon, so Goombella and Koops give it a makeover into an exaggerated {{wp|geisha}} and trick it into thinking that period dramas are trendy. Happy with its new look, the Blooper runs off to its date, leaving what was actually [[Luigi]]'s cap behind.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'', the Blooper, referred to as the Big Blooper, appears in the background of the [[Paper Mario (stage)|Paper Mario]] stage when it changes to the [[S.S. Flavion]]. It rocks the boat around, but does not inflict any direct damage to fighters.

==Trivia==
*While in the English version the Blooper speaks of Mario like "some saucy mustached guy", in the Italian version he explicitly remembers him<ref>"''Ma io ti conosco! Tu sei quell'impertinente baffuto''"; "I remember/know you! You are that pesky mustached guy [from a while back]!" -Calamako, ''Paper Mario: Il Portale Millenario''</ref>, possibly suggesting he is one of the three Bloopers met in ''[[Paper Mario]]''.
