|publisher=GameFAQs
|accessdate=March 20, 2025}}</ref>
'''Badges''' are items used in-battle by [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]''. Like the previous game in the series, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'', badges are tied to a meter that appears in-battle which fills when Mario or Luigi perform successful [[Action Command]]s. When the meter fills, the respective attacker's badge in the meter moves closer to the other badge. When the meter fills enough, both badges will combine, storing an effect in the bottom screen that can be used by tapping it with {{button|3ds|Stylus}} twice on the touch screen.

The first two badges, the Mush Badge and the Starter Badge, referred to at first as '''two round button-looking things''', are found in the depths of [[Pi'illo Castle]]. When the petrified [[Prince Dreambert]] is found and picked up by Mario, the two badges fall out as well. As the game progresses, more badges get stocked at the [[List of shops in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team#Badge Shop|Badge Shop]]s around [[Pi'illo Island]].

Badges in ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team'' build off of the mechanics established by the similar badge system of ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story''. The remake of ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'', ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', incorporates some of the badges, effects, and mechanics of ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team'' into its badge system.

==Use==
[[File:MLBIS change badges menu.png|thumb|right|The menu to change badges]][[File:M&LDTBadges1.png|thumb|right|Screenshot of the bottom screen of a battle. Note the Badge Meter on the top, the three circles in the middle for storing effects, and one of them filled with a stored effect.]]
Mario and Luigi each must equip a badge, and each has six types they can use to change the type of effect and strength of the effect. Each brother having six badges to choose from results in 36 unique badge combo effects. Luigi's badges are the left side and determine the type of effect. Mario's badges are the right side and determine the strength of the effect. The equipped badge combo can be changed from the [[star menu]], the menu before challenging a boss in the [[Battle Ring (Mario & Luigi: Dream Team)|Battle Ring]], or in battle with the button on the bottom-left of the bottom screen. Unlike ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'' where changing badges mid-battle costs a turn, badges in ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team'' can be freely swapped without costing a turn. Changing badges will reset the Badge Meter. In the Battle Ring, the badge meter always starts empty (except for the Battle Medley, where the meter's progress and stored effects are kept between the fights).

In-battle, the bottom screen primarily displays information of badges. The '''Badge Meter''' is displayed at the top, as well as the description of the badge effect. Under the Badge Meter is the '''effect stock''',<ref>{{cite
|author=Badge Stock +1 description
|quote=Adds an additional '''effect stock''' for your badges.
|title=''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team''
|publisher=Nintendo
|language=en}}</ref> two circles where badge effects get sent to and stored when the Badge Meter is filled. When Mario and Luigi [[Rank#Mario & Luigi: Dream Team|rank up]], one of the bonuses each can choose is Badge Stock +1, which increases the storage of the effect stock by one. Both brothers can choose this to increase the maximum of the effect stock from two to four.

Filling the Badge Meter stores the effect in the effect stock and drains the Badge Meter. Using a stored effect is done by tapping it twice with {{button|3ds|stylus}} during Mario or Luigi's turn. The first tap displays the badge combo and description, and the second tap uses and consumes the effect. Using a badge effect does not cost a turn, and multiple can be used in a single turn. The Badge Meter can still fill while the effect stock is full. If the Badge Meter is filled with a full effect stock, then the leftmost effect is deleted as all other effects slide to the left by one, with the new stored effect appearing on the right.

Badge effects cannot be used during the battle against [[Thunder Sass]].

===Badge Meter fill calculation===
The Badge Meter is filled by performing successful Action Commands in-battle. Mario's attacks fill the right side of the Badge Meter, while Luigi's attacks as well as [[Luiginary Attack]]s in the [[Dream World]] fill the left side. Unlike ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'' where certain badge combos require getting a certain Action Command rating or better, any rating that is not a miss will fill the meter. Getting an Excellent rating fills the meter by the most. Different moves fill the meter by different amounts, with normal attacks filling the Badge Meter less than [[Bros. Attack]]s and Luiginary Attacks. The amount the Badge Meter fills is also affected by the rank of the attacker. In the Dream World, Mario is considered the attacker for Jump and Hammer attacks, while Luigi is considered the attacker for Luiginary Attacks.

Certain [[List of Mario & Luigi: Dream Team gear|gear items]] can help with filling the Badge Meter. Charge Wear (Filler Wear in British English) fills the wearer's side of the Badge Meter by 20 units every time they get hit in-battle.<ref name=BadgeSpreadsheet></ref> Energy Wear (Boost Wear in British English) fills the wearer's side of the Badge Meter by 30 units every time they get hit in-battle.<ref name=BadgeSpreadsheet></ref> Charge Gloves (Filler Gloves in British English) makes the wearer's attacks worth 1.2× for filling the Badge Meter.<ref name=BadgeSpreadsheet></ref> Charge Gloves DX (Filler Gloves DX in British English) makes the wearer's attacks worth 1.4× for filling the Badge Meter.<ref name=BadgeSpreadsheet></ref>

If Mario or Luigi [[Downed|falls in battle]], their side of the Badge Meter completely drains.

Here is the exact amount each attack fills the Badge Meter.<ref name=BadgeSpreadsheet></ref> For almost every attack, the highest rating earned is what adds to the Badge Meter. Four attacks fill the Badge Meter differently: 3D Red Shell, 3D Green Shell, Luiginary Wall, and Luiginary Typhoon fill the Badge Meter for each rating earned rather than only by the highest rating. The values in the table below for these four attacks include the amount filled by the previous ratings.

===Visual effect when used===
The [[Secret Box]] item uses a random badge effect without even saying what it is. It is up to the player to figure out what happened based on the visual effect. Notably, the Secret Box has a small chance of instantly giving a Game Over or greatly harming the brothers if Risk Badge+Starter Badge, Risk Badge+Expert Badge, or Risk Badge+Gold Badge effects happen.
