Tails first appear as [[Sticker (Paper Mario: Sticker Star)|sticker]]s in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]''. Regular tails can be purchased for 20 [[coin]]s at [[Outlook Point]], while Shiny Tails cost 40 coins. Notably, Shiny Tails can only be purchased after clearing [[Whitecap Beach]] and obtaining the third [[Royal Sticker]]. Lots of regular Tails can also be found in [[Bowser Jr.'s Flotilla]], and Shiny Tails can occasionally be earned by defeating [[Rocky Wrench]]es. Here, rather than being used to attack enemies in battle, they are used for counterattacking and must be equipped during [[Mario]]'s turn. While it is equipped, it can be swung with A to damage enemies that attack from the side and interrupt their attack, but it | Tails first appear as [[Sticker (Paper Mario: Sticker Star)|sticker]]s in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]''.

Mario is required to bring either a Tail, Shiny Tail, or some type of baseball bat to the final battle with [[Bowser]], as he is required to deflect the [[Chain Chomp]] during the fight's fourth phase. | Mario is required to bring either a Tail, Shiny Tail, or some type of baseball bat to the final battle with [[Bowser]], as he is required to deflect the [[Chain Chomp]] during the fight's fourth phase. | ||

Tails reappear as a type of [[Battle Card (Paper Mario: Color Splash)|Battle Card]] in ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]''. They now turn Mario into [[Raccoon Mario]] in between turns, and they can last multiple turns until he takes damage. There is no Shiny variant, but it does more damage than the standard Tail did in ''Sticker Star.'' Tails first appear in [[Fort Cobalt]] and can be bought for 80 coins afterwards. Tails are needed to defeat [[Ludwig]], as Mario must equip one and counter the cannonballs launched by his [[Super Ludship]] to damage and destroy the ship. | Tails reappear as a type of [[Battle Card (Paper Mario: Color Splash)|Battle Card]] in ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]''.

Tails make their next appearance in ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]''. They are no longer used for counterattacking, and act as regular battle items. Mario is able to use one to swing at a 2×2 enemy formation to inflict damage. They can be purchased for 240 coins at [[Shogun Studios]]. Later on, they can be purchased at [[Toad Town]] for 360 coins. | Tails make their next appearance in ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]''.
