Blind

Blind is a status ailment in Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition that turns Orbs on the Orb field completely black, making it difficult for the player to identify Orb types. Blind is often inflicted by Skills used by Blooper and Para-Beetle-type enemies, as well as Skills used by Dry Bones, Bowser Jr. (in the final battle with Bowser and the Koopalings) and Dry Bowser. The severity of blindness depends on much of the Orb field has changed to black, from a slight amount to the entire board. The player can change the affected Orbs back to normal by moving them or using an ally Heavy Para-Beetle's Mega Support Skill to cure the entire Orb field -- using a Skill that changes Orbs types will not remove it.

The Awoken Skill "Blind Barrier" from "Blooper Nanny & Babies" or from "Bullet Bill & Goombas" enemies can reduce the chances of being blinded, depending on the level of their Awoken Skill.
