A '''Shooting Star''' is an [[List of items|item]] found in the [[Paper Mario (series)|''Paper Mario'' series]].

It first appears in ''[[Paper Mario]]'', where it is very valuable and somewhat rare. It deals six damage to all opponents in the form of showering them with shooting stars; the only enemy who is immune to this item is [[Monstar]]. One can be obtained by talking to a [[Hammer Bro]] during the Chapter 6 Intermission at the leftmost point of the library while [[Princess Peach]] is disguised using the [[Sneaky Parasol]], which she can put in the [[Mysterious Treasure Chest]] for [[Mario]] to collect later.

This item reappears in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. The item's description in the GameCube version claims that the Shooting Star makes enemies [[confused]], but this is false. This item can also be cooked by mixing a [[Thunder Rage]] with a [[Point Swap]]. It can be cooked with a [[Mushroom Fry]] to produce a [[Meteor Meal]].

When used in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', players have to aim the remote at the screen and fire at all the stars that appear. The attack grows in strength in proportion to the amount of stars hit. A single Shooting Star can be cooked to make a [[Meteor Meal]], which has the same effect but automatically does the maximum amount of damage without an action command, making it a straight upgrade. One can be found in [[Outer Limits]] inside a brick block, another can be found in [[The Overthere]] in Sector 5, and enemies such as [[Foton]]s and [[Hogarithm]]s drop them on occasion. It can also be purchased from [[Flimm]] or the [[Flipside Arcade]].
