Mysteries? can also be used for cooking, yielding a [[Mistake]] half the time, and a randomly selected one of twenty-three recipes otherwise.
These items can also be used for cooking, but the player must be aware that the item used in the recipe will be random, so the item may generate a [[Mistake]] if the player is unlucky.


Throughout the game, Mysteries? can be found in the following locations:
===''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''===
[[File:Mystery_SPM.png|frame]]
In ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', '''Mystery''' is sold for three [[coin]]s at the [[Sales Stall]] and the [[Pungent's Shop]]. When used in battle, a Mystery makes a completely random item appear that could be anything from a [[Poison Mushroom#Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door|Poison Shroom]] to an [[Ultra Shroom]] to a [[Shooting Star (item)|Shooting Star]]. If it is cooked with a [[Point Swap]], it makes [[Recipes|any recipe]].


* In a [[List of hidden blocks in Paper Mario|hidden block]] in the north of the Shy Guy Playground in the blue area of [[Shy Guy's Toy Box]].
===''Super Paper Mario''===
* In a hidden block on the beach of [[Lavalava Island]].
'''Mystery Boxes''' appear under their current name in ''Super Paper Mario''. When cooked, the outcome can be random, or more commonly, a [[Mistake]]. However, the set recipe is a [[Miracle Dinner]]. The Mystery Box can be bought in [[Flipside Arcade]] for five [[Flipside Tokens]], at the [[Downtown of Crag]] for three coins, or carried by a [[Lakitu]]. Similar to ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', a random item will appear which can be any item from a [[Catch Card]] to a [[Thunder Rage]].
* On a platform in the third lava/moving platform area in [[Bowser's Castle]].
* On sale for 1 coin each at [[Boo's Shop]].
* On sale for 5 coins each at the [[Storehouse]].
* Dropped by enemies such as [[Groove Guy]]s and [[Duplighost]]s.


====''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''====
===''Paper Mario: Sticker Star''===
In ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', a '''Mystery''' is sold for three [[coin]]s at [[Pungent's Great Tree Shop]] and the [[Sales Stall]]. One Mystery can also be found in a bush in near the bridge in [[Petal Meadows]].
The Mystery Box was originally set to re-appear in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'' for the [[Nintendo 3DS]], as seen in early artwork. However, this item was [[List of Paper Mario: Sticker Star beta elements|removed for unknown reasons]].
 
When used in battle, a Mystery has the effect of one of the following items:
*[[Dried Mushroom]]
*[[Mushroom]]
*[[Ultra Mushroom]]
*[[Honey Syrup]]
*[[Jammin' Jelly]]
*[[Volt Mushroom]]
*[[Slow Mushroom]]
*[[Gradual Syrup]]
*[[Repel Cape]]
*[[Stop Watch|Stopwatch]]
*[[Fire Flower]]
*[[Shooting Star (item)|Shooting Star]]
*[[Thunder Rage]]
 
In the remake the selection is different:
*Mushroom
*Honey Syrup
*Stopwatch
*Repel Cape
*Fire Flower
*Shooting Star
*Thunder Rage
Later chapters replace Mushroom and Honey Syrup with their upgraded forms.
 
If it is cooked by itself or with any other item, it makes a [[Mistake]] half the time, and otherwise a random one of twenty items, mostly [[Recipes|cooking recipes]].
 
====''Super Paper Mario''====
Mysteries appear under their name '''Mystery Boxes''' in ''Super Paper Mario''. When cooked, the outcome can be random, or more commonly, a [[Mistake]]. However, the set recipe is a [[Miracle Dinner]]. The Mystery Box can be bought in [[Flipside Arcade]] for five [[Flipside Token]]s, at the [[Downtown of Crag]] for three coins, or carried by a [[Lakitu]]. Similar to ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', a random item will appear which can be any item from a [[Catch Card]] to a [[Thunder Rage]].
 
A Mystery Box can contain one of the following items:
*[[Shroom Shake]]
*[[Super Shroom Shake]]
*[[Shell Shock (item)|Shell Shock]]
*[[Sleepy Sheep]]
*[[Ghost Shroom]]
*[[Catch Card]]
*[[POW Block]]
*[[Mighty Tonic]]
 
===''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team''===
While Mysteries do not appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', another item known as a [[Secret Box]] with similar effects appears. Secret Boxes mimic a random badge effect, unlike Mysteries, which mimic a random item.
 
===Unused appearances===
====''Paper Mario: Sticker Star''====
The Mystery was [[List of Paper Mario: Sticker Star pre-release and unused content|originally set to re-appear]] in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'' for the [[Nintendo 3DS]], as seen in early artwork, but is absent from the final game.
