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 an item found in [[? Block]]s in the game ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. When used, it creates an 8-person army of miniature, 8-bit copies of the user, which then surround them in a circular formation. Each pal will mimic the player character's movement at an offset, until either it touches an enemy, which both damages the enemy and defeats the pal; it falls down a [[pit]]; or the player leaves the area.


A similar attack is used by [[Super Dimentio]] by releasing slightly larger 8-bit [[Luigi]]s that become defeated instantly upon touching an object.
The pals use sprites and sound effects from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' If the player switches characters when they have Pal Pills, the pals will not change their appearance to match.
 
[[Super Dimentio]] has a similar attack where he releases 8-bit [[Luigi]]s that will be defeated if they touch anything. These pals are slightly larger than those created by a Pal Pill.

==Notes==
==Trivia==
*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]].
