Dizziness in ''[[Paper Mario]]'' can affect [[Mario|Mario]] and his enemies alike, including bosses. Mario can inflict this status ailment on enemies with the [[Dizzy Dial]] item, [[Kooper]]'s [[Dizzy Shell]], or the [[Dizzy Stomp]] [[badge]]. A small blue spiral will appear over the dizzy character's head, signifying their inability to move for a few turns. Dizziness tends to affect flying enemies more than grounded enemies. For example, [[Medi Guy]]s will remain dizzy for a full turn longer than a common [[Shy Guy]] affected by the same attack | Dizziness in ''[[Paper Mario]]'' can affect [[Mario|Mario]] and his enemies alike, including bosses.

In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', the Dizzy status ailment returns. However, instead of negating the ability to attack, the victim's attacks will have a 50-50 chance of missing the target. In the case of [[Flower Point|FP]]-powered moves or items, the FP is subtracted when the attack begins, meaning Mario and his partners could waste FP should they miss; attack-dealing items may also fail to hit a target. [[Ms. Mowz]] has a [[Tease]] attack that can make enemies dizzy | In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', the Dizzy status ailment returns.

Dizzy returns in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'' with the same effect as ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''. The [[Slaphammer]] [[sticker]], [[Lightbulb]] [[Thing]] or lightning from a [[Battle Spin]] can sometimes make enemies dizzy. When Mario gets dizzy, he will lose balance, causing him to sometimes miss his targets. Using Jump stickers could result in Mario falling on his face. Mario could swing hammers faster than normal, and his projectiles from [[Fire Flower]]s or [[Ice Flower]]s have a chance to be thrown off course. He will not be able to block more than once, run away from the battle or use defensive stickers such as the [[Spike Helmet]], the [[Frog Suit]], the [[Super Boot]], the [[Tail]], the [[Leaf (Paper Mario: Sticker Star)|Leaf]] or any variants of the aforementioned stickers. Enemies that become dizzy often have unique animations when they miss. For example, [[Goomba]]s will roll over if their attack misses. | Dizzy returns in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'' with the same effect as ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''.

When Mario gets hit by [[Shy Bandit]]'s [[black paint]], he will be blinded by the paint and his attacks will miss. The same can happen to a summoned Enemy Card ally if the attack hits them. On the [[Sunset Express]], [[Larry Koopa|Larry]] can also blind Mario with the train's smokestack and will keep doing so until the Cork Thing is used to clog the smokestack. | ||
Dizzy can also be inflicted on enemies by using the Lemon, Lightbulb, or Salt & Pepper Things. Dizzy enemies will miss their attacks for several turns, mostly using the same animations from ''Sticker Star'' when they do so. | |||
