'''Dimension D''' is a small, green dimension visited in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. Created by [[Dimentio]], it contains a wide room with a similar grid-based appearance to [[The Bitlands]], and a sinusoidal pattern in the background. The main known use for the dimension throughout the game is to serve as an arena for boss battles.


Dimentio originally intended for Dimension D to multiply his power by 256. Upon winning the battle against him, the player character claims that the dimension made them more powerful as well, leaving everyone's stats unchanged relative to each other. This may be a homage to 8-bit storage capacity: 8-bit integers have 256 possible values, so adding 256 (although not multiplying by it) will [[wikipedia:Integer overflow|overflow the integer]] and result in no net change.
'''Dimension D''' is a small, green realm created by [[Dimentio]] in the game ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. Originally intended to multiply the attack power of Dimentio by 256, the feat was unintentionally granted to all who entered.  


Dimentio first challenges the heroes of the game at Dimension D from [[the Dotwood Tree]] of The Bitlands. The player also fights [[O'Chunks]] twice here, first from the [[Gap of Crag]], and again during the last stage of [[Floro Caverns]] while he is brainwashed by a [[Floro Sprout]].
Dimentio first challenges the heroes of the game at Dimension D in the [[Dotwood Tree]] of [[The Bitlands]]. The [[player]] also fights a powerful, mind-controlled [[O'Chunks]], called O'Cabbage, a form which was granted added power by Dimentio, here during the last stage in [[Floro Caverns]]. When [[Count Bleck]] is defeated, Dimentio sends him, a fallen [[Nastasia]] (she blocked Dimentio's attack) and [[Tippi]] here but all of them escape later.


When [[Count Bleck]] is defeated, Dimentio sends him, an unconscious [[Nastasia]], and [[Tippi]] to this dimension, but all of them escape later thanks to the help of the [[Pure Heart]]s.
== Trivia ==
*The power of everyone's attacks is unaffected by the dimension's powers; this is likely a homage to the data storage abilities of classic consoles. The maximum number for items and other collectibles was usually 255; therefore, 256 would revert back one. Or it could be that everyone's defence was changed as well.
*The number 256 features prominently in Super Paper Mario. It is the number of [[Catch Cards]] in the game, and in Chapter 5, [[Flint Cragley]]'s crew members say they have heard his story about the Rainbowzilla 256 times.
*In the battles with O´Chunks in Chapter 5,  Dimension D was used so the player wouldn't be able to escape of the battle.
*256 could also be referencing the 256-color scheme, which is used in all Paper Mario games as the main colors for all things game-related. It could also be referencing the most common USB stick size in current production, '''256 MB'''.


[[The Void]] is absent from the background of this dimension.
