Tickle, also known as Shuffle[1] or Thunder Tickle,[2] is a Bros. Action in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions. It is taught to Mario and Luigi by the Jellyfish Sisters at their Relaxation Room in Gwarhar Lagoon. The Jellyfish Sisters decide to teach Mario and Luigi how to use the Dash and Tickle after the two brothers inadvertently reveal that they can use the Firebrand and Thunderhand.

Tickle is performed by having Luigi as the rear brother, selecting the move using the shoulder buttons (L Button or R Button), and holding B Button. Luigi has to tickle Mario with Thunderhand until Thunderhand reaches maximum power. This electrocutes Mario, briefly exposing his skeleton. When the button is released, electricity continues to course through Mario, causing him and Luigi to walk in lockstep with each other without changing direction until Tickle wears off. They move slower than usual, but this Bros. Action allows them to move through certain gaps at the right moment and interact with objects that require them to be facing away from them, such as Boo Statues. Tickle lasts for about four seconds.

In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions, the player cannot switch between the Mario Bros. manually by using Start Button. This means the player must select the move using the Touch Screen or by using L Button and R Button in order to use it.
