Stop Watch

- Not to be confused with the Timer.
If Mario or his friends first pulls up four large vegetables in Super Mario Bros. 2, pulling up what would normally result in a plant will instead reveal a Stop Watch. It will appear for a second and then freeze everything in the level for a few seconds. This gives a window of opportunity for Mario and his friends to defeat enemies and collect small hearts. But, touching enemies still hurts them, but the enemies do not move.

The Stop Watch later appears as an item in the Paper Mario series. When Mario uses it, it will immobilize enemies for a few turns (assuming it is successful). It can be bought at most stores and is a fairly common item.
