The '''Toadwood Forest''' is a location in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''. It is one of the first locations visited by [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Baby Mario]], and [[Baby Luigi]]. The forest is located between [[Bowser's Castle]] and [[Peach's Castle]] in [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. The [[Shroob]]s use the forest to harvest [[vim]] from [[Toad (species)|Toads]] to use as fuel. Enemies such as [[Koopeleon]]s, [[Boo Guy]]s, and [[Elasto-Piranha]]s reside in the forest.

During the Shroob invasion, Toads are abducted and placed on the forest's trees, which drain their life force, known as [[vim]], out of them, weakening the Toads. Those fully drained cannot be interacted with. The vim is transferred through the roots of the trees to the [[Vim Factory]], a huge Shroob-created building built in the middle of the Toadwood Forest. Once there, the vim is altered by [[Swiggler]] with chemicals and turned into fuel for the [[Shroob saucer]]s.

The Mario brothers and their baby counterparts travel to the Toadwood Forest of the past after the [[Cobalt Star|Cobalt Star shard]] retrieved from [[Bowser's Castle#Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time|Baby Bowser's Castle]] opens a [[time hole]] to that location. As they journey through the forest, they encounter multiple Toads strapped to the trees. They eventually reach [[Toadiko]], who reveals what happened to her, [[Toadbert]], and [[Princess Peach]] after they traveled to the past and tells the Shroobs' plans to the Mario brothers. Before Toadiko can finish, five Shroob saucers attack and turn her into a [[Shroob mushroom]]. However, the brothers manage to evade the attacks. After burning the trees blocking the way to the Vim Factory, they take a [[Warp Pipe]] to bring them closer to the factory.

In the next area, the brothers and the baby brothers activate two switches to raise the platforms in front of the factory's entrance, allowing access.

==Layout==
In the first area of the Toadwood Forest are tree stumps that the adult brothers can throw the baby brothers into. Inside of each stump are [[? Block]]s that contain [[coin]]s or items, as well as a [[trampoline]], which the baby brothers can use to leave the stump. Some stumps also contain enemies. In the area with six tall tree stumps, the adult brothers must throw the baby brothers into a shorter stump to go underground, where the baby brothers must hit six '''fire blocks'''.<ref>{{cite|author=Hoffman, Chris|title=''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time'' Player's Guide|page=22|date=November 18, 2005|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us|isbn=1-59812-006-9|quote=Send the babies underground and hit the six fire blocks to burn the trees blocking the path to the warp pipe.}}</ref> After each fire block is hit, a fireball shoots out of a tall stump and enters an [[Empty Block]] above ground. The adult brothers need to hit these blocks to combine the six fireballs into one large fireball at the center of the area. After hitting the block the large fireball is in, it launches and burns down a wall of trees, clearing a path to the Warp Pipe that leads to the second area.

The second area features pits filled with thorns. To cross them, the baby brothers must use a block to control the '''floating panel'''<ref>{{cite|quote=Ride the {{color|blue|floating panel}} below to conquer thorny paths. Hitting a {{color|blue|block}} should get the {{color|blue|floating panel}} moving...|author=[[Sign]]|title=''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''}}</ref> while the adult brothers are riding it. ? Blocks are found above safe ground and barrier platforms, which only appear over the largest pit. [[Warp Block (Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time)|Warp Block]]s are found on the other side to reunite the brothers. Two statues are in the second area, each of which requires [[Simu-Block|Simultaneous Blocks]] to be hit by all four brothers to activate them. After activating both statues, they reveal a bridge that allows the brothers and baby brothers to enter the Vim Factory.
