The '''Gold Star''' is the third [[Crystal Stars|Crystal Star]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. It was supposedly found on the [[Glitz Pit]] [[Champ's Belt]], but [[Grubba]] had the real one and used it to power his Strengthening Machine to turn him into [[Macho Grubba]]. The Gold Star was given to [[Mario]] by [[Jolene]] after defeating Macho Grubba and reuniting her with [[Prince Mush]].

The '''Gold Star''' is the third of the [[Crystal Stars]] [[Mario]] collects in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', obtained after completing Chapter 3: Of Glitz and Glory.


Prior to the events of the game, the referee of the [[Glitz Pit]], [[Grubba]], used the Gold Star to power a [[Power-draining machine|machine]] that lets him suck out the life force of the fighters to power up his own. Upon entering the Glitz Pit, Mario and his [[partner]]s witness a fight between [[The Koopinator]] and [[Rawk Hawk]], which the latter wins and receives a [[Champ's Belt|belt]] with the Gold Star on it. With their objective in sight, Mario and his friends climb up the ranks of the Glitz Pit, only to find that the Gold Star on Rawk Hawk's belt is fake. After claiming the champion title themselves, Mario discovers that Grubba has the Gold Star and confronts him in battle, where he fights in a powered-up form known as [[Macho Grubba]]. After being defeated, Grubba's assistant, [[Jolene]] gives Mario the real Gold Star as thanks. The Gold Star teaches Mario the move [[Power Lift]] to use in battles.
This Crystal Star will teach Mario the move [[Power Lift]], which costs three [[Star Power|SP]]. To use this move, the player must aim a cursor at a 3x3 grid of stars. Hitting orange arrows raises Mario's attack, blue arrows raise Mario's defense, and [[Poison Mushroom]]s slow the cursor down for a few seconds.
 
The fake Gold Star appears later in [[Bowser]]'s intermission following Chapter 6, where he discovers Rawk Hawk's secret training facility. Confusing the fake with the real thing, he attempts to steal it, but Rawk Hawk shows up to stop him. As Bowser fights him off, [[Kammy Koopa]] is knocked into the fake Gold Star, which breaks it, and Rawk Hawk tells Bowser who has the real one, calling Mario by his stage name "Gonzales".
 
During the final battle with the [[Shadow Queen]], when the Crystal Stars spread out to the locations in which they were found, the Gold Star returns to [[Glitzville]], where Jolene and the Glitz Pit fighters, consisting of Rawk Hawk, [[The Iron Adonis Twins]], and [[King K]] (who erroneously uses the sprite of a [[Shady Koopa]] in the GameCube original), cheer on Mario and his team just before they defeat the Shadow Queen.

*The Gold Star and the [[Diamond Star]] are the only Crystal Stars that are not from a chapter that involves the [[X-Naut]]s or the [[Three Shadows]] in any way.
*It is never mentioned how Grubba managed to get this star, as it was never mentioned what the four heroes did with it. It is mentioned by [[Wonky]] that he 'found' it, with no details given, as a young fighter, and subsequently used its power to help himself climb the ranks.
*The Gold Star is the only [[Crystal Stars|Crystal Star]] to not have an explanation for how it ended up in its current location. All the others are explained as being near a [[Black chest|Black Chest]] (with the exception of the one [[Grodus]] has, as he states he found that one in [[Rogueport]]) or having been given to someone else to keep safe.
*The Gold Star and the [[Diamond Star]] are the only stars that are not from a chapter that involves the [[X-Naut]]s or the [[Shadow Sirens]] in any way.
