{{quote|Hiya. I'm Ian Foomus, the infamous info mouse. I know things. Things worth knowing.|Ian Foomus|Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch)}}
'''Ian Foomus''' is a [[Little Mouser]] who appears in the [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch)|Nintendo Switch remake of ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'']]. He appears in the [[Trouble Center]], offering advice to help with different troubles. He wears a gray cap, holds a book, and has a pencil tucked behind his ear. As [[Goombella]]'s [[Tattle]] indicates, his name is a play on the terms "infamous" and "info mouse."

==Tattle==
*"''That's Ian Foomus, the infamous info mouse. He gathers intel about folks in trouble...instead of helping them.  If you're stuck on a request from the Trouble Center, this smug li'l sleuth probably has the info you need. Buuut that info comes at a price, so only ask him if you're really stuck. Know-it-alls... Such a pain, am I right?''"
