A '''Pal Pill''' is a special item, which creates an 8-man army of mini, 8-bit versions of the character being used, which then surround the character. These pal pills will mimic the player's motion until either the pal pill touches an enemy, in which case, both the pal pill and the enemy are eradicated (depending on the enemies health), or the player leaves the area. This item is found in [[? Block]]s in the game, ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''.
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 similar attack is used by [[Super Dimentio]] by releasing slightly larger 8-bit [[Luigi]]s that become defeated instantly upon touching an object.
==Trivia==
*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]].
*[[Super Dimentio]] has the ability to create a swarm of 8-bit Pals in Luigi's likeness.
*If the player switches characters with the Pal Pills, the Pall Pills will remain the same as the player who activated it.

==Notes==
*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.
*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]].
