'''Charged''' is a status effect in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. Both [[Mario]] and some of his enemies can become Charged. When Charged, a character will flash between their original color palette and one with horizontal multicolored lines.

'''Charged''' is a status condition in ''[[Paper Mario]]'', and in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' and [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch)|its Nintendo Switch remake]].  


A character can use a move to store Attack Power, causing them to become Charged. A Charged character can continue to charge power, but will unleash their stored power when they next use an attacking move. The Charged character's Attack Power will increase (similar to the [[Attack Up]] condition) according to the level of charge that was stored prior to the attack. Stored charge will be expended at the end of an attack, even if it misses.  
Charged raises the attack power of the user, most commonly given to Mario and his partners with the use of the Charge and [[Charge P]] [[badge]]s, respectively. The [[Hot Sauce]] also makes the user Charged. It is similar to [[POW-Up|ATK-Up]], but with a few differences. Charged only lasts until the player or enemy attacks, after which their attack power returns to normal. However, players are able to charge repeatedly, raising their attack power more with every charge, until finally unleashing a very powerful attack. However, each charge will use up a turn.


There is no icon to indicate this condition, but a Charged character will visibly shimmer with a rainbow gradient. In both games, [[Mario]] has the ability to become Charged only through using abilities unlocked by equipping specific [[badge]]s.
Enemies can charge as well, with [[Hyper Goomba]]s and the like being the most common users. Enemies often get a much more powerful boost from their Charged attacks than Mario, but they will never charge more than once (with the exception of [[Marylin]]).
==History==
===''Paper Mario''===
In ''[[Paper Mario]]'', Mario can unlock the ability to charge his [[Jump]] attacks by equipping the [[Jump Charge]] or [[S. Jump Charge]] badges, and charge his [[Hammer]] attacks by equipping the [[Smash Charge]] and [[S. Smash Charge]] badges. Jump Charge and Smash Charge will store 2 charge per use, while S. Jump Charge and S. Smash Charge will store 3 charge per use. Mario can only unleash charged Attack Power using the same method of attack as the charge move that was used. When [[Goombario]] reaches Super Rank, he can use the move [[Charge (move)|Charge]] to store charge for all of his attacks.


Certain enemies are capable of charging, including [[Hyper Goomba]]s, [[Hyper Paragoomba]]s, [[Hyper Cleft]]s, [[Tubba's Heart]] and [[Koopatrol]]s. Enemies generally get a more powerful boost to their charge than when Mario or Goombario do so, but will never charge more than once.
If a Charged attack misses, attack power will return to normal.


===''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''===
Some enemies, such as the [[Ruff Puff]] "charge up" for an attack of sorts (in the Ruff Puff's case, for its lightning attack), but these attacks are not considered to bestow the Charged status.
In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' and [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch)|its Nintendo Switch remake]], Mario and his partners can gain the ability to charge power when equipped with the [[Charge (badge)|Charge]] and [[Charge P]] badges, respectively. Unlike the previous game, Charge is now a singular action in the Tactics Menu, and will store 1 charge power per use. The action can be used multiple times, but charged power will only be unleashed when Mario or his partner use an attack. The [[Hot Sauce]], [[Hottest Dog]], and [[Spicy Pasta Dish|Spicy Pasta]] items can also be consumed to gain 1 charge power.
 
Certain enemies are capable of charging, including Hyper Goombas, Hyper Paragoombas, [[Hyper Spiky Goomba]]s, Koopatrols, [[Dark Koopatrol]]s, [[Sky-Blue Spiny|Sky-Blue Spinies]], [[Hyper Bald Cleft]]s, Hyper Clefts, [[Bulky Bob-omb]]s, [[Bob-ulk]]s, [[Gloomtail]], [[Macho Grubba]], [[Cortez]], [[Marilyn]], and the [[Shadow Queen]]. Enemies generally get a more powerful boost to their charge, but will only do so once, with Marilyn being a notable exception.
 
[[Ruff Puff]]s, [[Ice Puff]]s and [[Poison Puff]]s, can appear to charge power for an attack, but these are fixed effects that are distinct from the Charged status condition.
 
In both the original game and the Nintendo Switch remake, the Super Charge action exists and be acquired from the unused [[List of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door pre-release and unused content#Badges|Super Charge and Super Charge P]] badges. Using Super Charge will store 2 charge power compared to Charge storing 1, but there is no way to legitimately obtain these badges in-game.
