- “EXTREME DANGER! Stay out! -Flopside City Hall-”
- —Sign, Super Paper Mario
The Flopside Pit of 100 Trials is a 100-room labyrinth in Super Paper Mario, similar to the Pit of 100 Trials in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. However, in this game there are two pits - one in Flopside, and one in Flipside, the latter pit being called the Flipside Pit of 100 Trials. Both were created to test the forces that guard the Pure Hearts. The Flopside version was used to study the powers of darkness.
Accessing the Flopside Pit is done in a manner similar to its Flipside counterpart, except the switch that opens the entrance does not appear until the Flipside Pit is cleared. Once the Flipside pit is cleared, a rift will appear above the sealed pipe leading to the pit. A blue switch appears when Fleep activates the rift and the block opens the way to the pit.
Most rooms of the Pit are randomly generated, containing an assortment of lines of solid blocks, one entrance door that immediately disappears, one locked door, and possibly pairs of Warp Pipes on opposite sides of the room. The possible locations of each of these elements appear in each room as faint, transparent images; this, as well as the solid black appearance of the objects, is a reference to segmented liquid-crystal displays like that of the Game & Watch series. Even when solid, these objects are flat, so flipping will make Mario fall to the bottom of the room. Each room is populated with enemies, a random one of which will be holding the Pit Key that unlocks the door to the next room. The player has five minutes on each floor; if they run out of time, they will receive an instant Game Over.
Every tenth room is instead a smaller rest area with no enemies nor a time limit. In addition to the door to the next room, they contain a pipe back up out of the Pit and a large treasure chest containing a gold Catch Card (of Dashell in Room 10 and of a partner from Paper Mario every tenth room thereafter). Flimm also has a chance to appear on these rooms, selling items for different prices than they can normally be obtained for. Usually, this is 75% of its usual price, but unlike the Flipside Pit of 100 Trials, there is a chance items will cost double their typical price instead.
The final room, Room 100, is also different, instead simply being the inside of the black outline of a cube in a completely gray void. The first time the player arrives here, Shadoo speaks to them. However, Shadoo cannot be fought until the player reaches Room 100 for the second time. Upon winning the fight, eight small treasure chests will rise from the ground, containing Catch Cards of Shadoo's four forms, Mario, Peach, Bowser, and Luigi. The latter four Catch Cards are special in that they double all damage the character does, with the Mario card also providing infinite Flip Meter.
