The '''Super Fun Quirk Quiz''' is a series of two Quizzes that appear in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. There are two versions of this quiz in the game, one being held in [[Shhwonk Fortress]], and the other in the [[X-Naut Fortress]]. Mario is a contestant at both of these Quizzes. The two are run by [[Thwomp]]s -- one being a normal Thwomp, and the other being a robotic Thwomp. In either case, they both get mad when their respective quiz is completed.

The '''65th Trivia Quiz-Off''', originally known as the '''65th Super Fun Quirk Quiz''', is a quiz that appears in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' along with its [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch)|Switch remake]]. It is hosted at [[Petal Meadows]], where the gate to the [[Shhwonk Fortress]] is. [[Mario]] triggers this quiz by pressing {{button|gcn|A}} when near the [[Thwomp]], and when he does, the Thwomp will open its eyes and start the quiz. If Mario answers three questions wrong, he must fight four [[Cleft]]s, but if he correctly answers five questions, the Thwomp will then begrudgingly allow Mario to pass without triggering a battle. It succeeds the [[64th Trivia Quiz-Off]] from ''[[Paper Mario]]'', and precedes the [[66th Trivia Quiz-Off]] held in [[X-Naut Fortress]].

This Quiz is held in Shhwonk Fortress, right outside the entrance. Mario triggers this Quiz by pressing the A button when near the Thwomp, and when he does, the Thwomp will open its eyes and start the quiz. The questions to this quiz can easily be completed if the player has been talking to game's various [[NPC]]s. If you get 3 of the questions wrong they will fight four [[Cleft]]s. These can easly be defeated if you buy a [[POW Block]] beforehand.
