| A '''Pal Pill''' is an item in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. They are located inside of [[? Block]]s. When using a Pal Pill, the player character is circled by eight miniature, 8-bit copies of themselves, all shown with sprites and sound effects from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' Each pal mimics their movement at an offset until it either touches an enemy, falls down a pit, or the player leaves the area. When a pal takes damage, the player character does as well. | | A '''Pal Pill''' is a item used in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. They appear out of [[? Block]]s and look like three 8-bit [[Mario]] heads arranged in a triangle. Once the player touches the item, an army of mini 8-bit versions of the current character appears, surrounding the active character. The Pill Pals will mimic the player's every motion and even follow them through doors and [[Warp Pipes]]. If the player encounters an enemy he or she can instruct the Pal Pills to jump on it. If a Pill Pal gets hit by an enemy they both will die. |

| A similar attack is used by [[Super Dimentio]] by releasing slightly larger 8-bit [[Luigi]]s that become defeated instantly upon touching an object.
| | However, once the player leaves the area, either by using the [[Return Pipe]] or hitting the [[Star Block]], the Pill Pals disappear. |

| ==Notes==
| | *Interestingly, in the ''[[Super Mario World (TV series)|Super Mario World]]'' animated series episode "[[Rock TV]]", an item similar to the Pill Pals appear; [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]], upon hitting a [[? Block]] in the episode, releases a brigade of miniature Marios, who began to attack the nearby [[Koopalings]]. |
| *The coloration of the Pal Pill item reflects Mario's color palette in true color, unlike the pals it creates, which follow the color limitations of their ''Super Mario Bros.'' sprites. This may be a leftover from [[List of Super Paper Mario pre-release and unused content|pre-release versions of the game]] in which Mario's [[Mega Star]] form also used the same colors. | | *[[Super Dimentio]] has the ability to create a swarm of 8-bit Pals in Luigi's likeness. |
| *In the [[Super Mario World (television series)|''Super Mario World'']] animated series episode "[[Rock TV]]", an item similar to the Pill Pals appears. By hitting a ? Block, [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] releases a brigade of miniature [[Mario]]s who begin to attack the nearby [[Koopalings]].
