| The '''Pure Hearts''' are powerful artifacts created by the [[Tribe of Ancients]] in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. All eight Pure Hearts are pieces of the [[Purity Heart]], and they were created by the Ancients using the power of love, which was believed to be the only force powerful enough to save all worlds from destruction. | | The '''Pure Hearts''' are eight sacred hearts created by the [[Tribe of Ancients]] to save the world from the [[Chaos Heart]]. The Pure Hearts seem to be ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s equivalent of ''[[Paper Mario]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s [[Star Spirits]], ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s [[Crystal Star]]s, or ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s [[Grand Star]]s. [[Mario]] gets one of these from Merlon before the player even controls him in the beginning of the game and must find the other seven of these throughout his adventure to form the [[Purity Heart]]. The Pure Hearts are collected in the order of the colours of the rainbow and create doors of their colour when placed in a [[Heart Pillar]], with the exception of the final, white Pure Heart (which is formed when all the colors of the rainbow are mixed together), which causes the large black door to [[Castle Bleck]] to appear. |

| The Pure Hearts were created as part of the prophecies detailed in the [[Light Prognosticus]], which state that four Heroes of Light must gather all eight of them in order to counteract the [[Chaos Heart]] and defeat the one who wields it. When placed in a [[Heart Pillar]], each Pure Heart leads to a dimension where the next one is located, through a series of doors at the top of [[Flipside Tower]]. The Pure Hearts are eight pieces of the whole Purity Heart, which was divided into the Pure Hearts by the Ancients so it could be hidden across different dimensions. | | [[Image:Pureheart.png|thumb|left|A Pure Heart given to Mario by [[Merlon]].]] |
| | The Pure Hearts are great treasures created by the Ancients. They supposedly hold great power. The source of power in these Pure Hearts are the power of love itself (parent, smitten, etc.). The Ancients researched love, believing it to be the universe's only salvation. They created the Pure Hearts as the embodiment of love. Hopefully, their combined brilliance would negate the destruction of the Chaos Heart, a feat which it ended up successfully performing. [[Mario]] and his team of [[Heroes of Light|heroes]] must find all of the Pure Hearts to destroy the Chaos Heart. In the end the hearts defeat [[Count Bleck]], [[Dimentio]] and [[The Void]]. |
| | <br clear=all> |
| | Here are all eight locations of the Pure Hearts: |
| | #<font color=red>'''Red:'''</font> Kept by [[Merlon (Super Paper Mario)|Merlon]] in [[Flipside]] and given to Mario when he begins his journey. |
| | #<font color=orange>'''Orange:'''</font> Guarded by [[Fracktail]] deep within the [[Yold Ruins]] in [[Lineland]] but the dragon went out of control. The Pure Heart was given to Mario by [[Merlumina]]. It seems to represent love. |
| | #<font color=gold>'''Yellow:''' </font>Kept by [[Merlee]] in [[Gloam Valley]]. It may be a symbol of faith. |
| | #<font color=green>'''Green:''' </font>Emerged in the [[Bitlands]]'s [[Fort Francis]] after Mario rescues [[Tippi]]. The heart was gained by trust. |
| | #<font color=blue>'''Blue:''' </font>Hidden by the ancient [[Squirpia]]ns in the [[Whoa Zone]] somewhere in [[Outer Space]]. The party fought Luigi who is Mr L. |
| | #<font color=indigo>'''Indigo:''' </font>Kept by the [[Floro Sapien]]s in the [[Land of the Cragnons]]. |
| | #<font color=purple>'''Purple:''' </font>Kept by [[King Sammer]] in [[Sammer's Kingdom]]. It was severely weakened by The Void, to the point of being destroyed, but is later repowered by [[Queen Jaydes]]. |
| | #<font color=grey>'''White:'''</font> Personified as a [[Nimbi]] named [[Luvbi]]. Her foster parents are [[Grambi]] of [[the Overthere]] and Queen Jaydes of [[the Underwhere]]. After the Battle against [[Bonechill]] the heart was restored to its true form. |

| The first Pure Heart is held by a descendant of the Ancients named [[Merlon]], who gives it to [[Mario]], the first of the four heroes, with the task of traveling through dimensions in order to gather the other seven and stop [[Count Bleck]] from destroying all worlds using [[The Void]]. (If Mario refuses to accept this Pure Heart, this results in a [[Game Over]].) During his journey, Mario eventually comes to reunite with [[Princess Peach]], [[Bowser]], and [[Luigi]], all of whom are proven to be the remaining three Heroes of Light, and together, the four of them manage to collect all eight Pure Hearts and travel to [[Castle Bleck]] to battle against [[Count Bleck]], the holder of the Chaos Heart.
| | All Pure Hearts are drawn by their own power toward those strong with love, likely due to their aforementioned love-powered creation. It is also interesting to note that Pure Hearts may be sapient, as the Luvbi character spoken of above actually managed to remember being a Pure Heart when her true being as a Pure Heart was revealed to her after a prolonged amount of time in which she thought she was born a Nimbi. |

| Despite the immense power of the Pure Hearts, they are not indestructible, and can be weakened--for example, the Violet Pure Heart was turned to stone upon being consumed by The Void along with the rest of Sammer's Kingdom. It was revitalized by [[Queen Jaydes]] of [[The Underwhere]], using her power over life and death. In addition, the power of the Pure Hearts is depleted after they are used to break through the Chaos Heart's protection over Count Bleck, though they are all revitalized by Bleck's minions.

| | |
| At the end of the game, [[Dimentio]], having stolen the Chaos Heart for himself, uses the last of his power to sustain the Chaos Heart long enough to ensure the destruction of every world. In their final moments, Count Bleck and Tippi--now revealed to be long-lost lovers Lord Blumiere and Lady Timpani--reaffirm their love for each other, sacrificing themselves in order to save all worlds; their vows manage to unite the Pure Hearts into the whole Purity Heart, destroying the Chaos Heart and reversing the prophecy of destruction.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *The Pure Heart Mario obtains from Sammer's Kingdom is meant to be purple; however, after it is restored by Queen Jaydes, it is erroneously shown as being indigo.
| |
| *When a Pure Heart is obtained, smaller hearts based on the number of Pure Hearts obtained appear and move in time with the Pixls dancing.
| |
| * In the Japanese version of the script, the Purity Heart is simply called the Pure Heart, creating ambiguity between the whole Purity Heart and its fragments.
