| The '''Paper Plane Squadron''' (also known as the '''Paper Airplane Squadron''') is a fleet of paper planes dispatched by [[King Olly]] that appear in ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]''. When [[Mario]] and [[Olivia]] take off into the sky with [[Bowser's Minions]] aboard [[Bowser]]'s [[airship]], the fleet appears, attempting to stop them from reaching [[Peach's Castle]]. The minions, [[Bowser Jr.]], and [[Kamek]] engage the planes in a battle in the sky while Mario takes control of the airship's main cannon to shoot [[Bob-omb]]s at them. | | The '''Paper Squadron''' are a fleet of paper planes appearing in ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]''.

| The player takes control of a cannon, using either motion controls or the left analog stick to aim the cannon. There are several smaller paper planes which fly across the screen in different directions with several attempting to hit the airship. | | The player takes control of a cannon, using either motion controls or the left analog stick to aim the cannon. There are several smaller paper planes which fly across the screen in different directions; several attempting to hit the airship. Some paper planes are seen attempting to assault [[Koopa Paratroopa]]s, which will call out to Mario for help. The airship has five hearts of health to begin; sometimes there are [[Heart (item)|heart]]s in parachutes which can be shot to regain some HP. |
| | |
| Planes that fly directly to the cannon are more common, requiring one hit to destroy. Less commonly, planes will approach in a zigzag formation; these require two hits to destroy. A plane close to the airship creates a sound similar to a flying jet. Occasionally, Kamek or Bowser Jr. can be seen chasing after some planes, and a [[Koopa Paratroopa]] may also be seen being chased by two common planes; destroying those planes will result in the Koopa Paratroopa fully repairing the airship a few moments later.

| | |
| The airship has five hearts of health to begin, and one heart is depleted if a paper plane crashes into the airship; sometimes there are [[Heart (item)|heart]]s in parachutes which can be shot to regain some health. If all five hearts are depleted, it will result in a [[Game Over]]. | |

|
| Some time into the fight, Kamek will notice a mysterious purple object just under the clouds, and goes off to investigate. Near the end of the fight, Bowser Jr. appears, believing the battle is over, only for Kamek to return, just as the object he was investigating is revealed: a giant paper plane, being the boss, which takes several Bob-ombs to defeat. The boss plane will fly ahead of the airship, releasing many common planes, and will gradually approach the airship. When the boss plane is damaged enough, both Kamek and Bowser Jr. believe they have won, but the boss plane loses control and is about to crash straight into the airship, so Kamek, Bowser Jr., and Mario keep firing at the boss plane until it finally explodes. If the player fails to destroy the boss plane before it crashes, it will result in a [[Game Over]], regardless of how much health the airship has.
| | At the end of the fight sequence, there is a giant purple paper plane which takes many Bob-ombs to defeat. Several smaller planes also target the player at this point. When the giant paper plane gets closer to the airship, a flying jet sound effect plays.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifxXu2LZADc Paper Mario The Origami King - All Bosses & Ending]</ref> When the Paper Squadron is defeated, a giant paper plane with [[King Olly]]'s insignia crashes into Bowser's airship, causing it to fall into [[Hotfoot Crater]]. |
| | |
| With the Paper Plane Squadron defeated, the airship continues on its course. However, before it can begin its final approach to Peach's Castle, a much-larger paper plane collides into the airship on its port side, causing the airship to plunge from the sky and crash-land into [[Hotfoot Crater]], just below the castle.
| |
| | |
| During the third phase of the final battle with [[King Olly]], he can transform his arms into cannons and fire paper planes that are identical to the ones of the Paper Plane Squadron to attack Mario.
