- “Whatever...We've got cards, we've got paint...YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO, MARIO!”
- —Huey, Paper Mario: Color Splash
Battle Cards are important elements in Paper Mario: Color Splash. They succeeded Stickers from the game's predecessor and serve as Mario's main method of attacking, and as such there are a wide variety of cards to attack with. Mario can buy cards from Prisma Cardware.
Variations
There are three different kinds of battle cards:
- Basic - These cards are meant for attacking enemies, healing and defending Mario, and refilling the paint hammer.
- Enemy - These cards summon enemies that attack for Mario and take hits for him.
- Thing - These are obtained by finding things in the world and squeezing them into cards. They can then be used to deal big damage to enemies, solve a puzzle outside of battle, and weaken the Koopaling bosses with specific thing cards.
Basic Cards
There are 60 Basic Cards in the game pertaining to four categories: Worn-Out Basic Cards have a striped background with fine colored stripes on a white background, Normal Basic Cards have a checkered background with colored squares on a white background, Big Basic Cards have a checkered background with bigger colored squares on a background of a lighter color, Mega or Huge Basic Cards have a striped radial background in which a striped colored slice is alternated with a striped slice of a lighter color, the stripes themselves alternating a stripe of a lighter color with a stripe of a more saturated color. There are also cards that allow to obtain the same effect up to five times, depending on the number of items in the card.

Things
"Objects that are 3D are called Things. A Thing Card is what you get when you squeeze a Thing. When you use them, crazy things can happen."
Each Thing Card can be carried in only one copy, in order to obtain the effect of the same Thing Card multiple times Replica versions of those cards exist (with the exception of the Huey Card), whose effect is similar with the exception of a "REPLICA" text added in front of the animation. During the battles against the Koopalings, if a Replica of the mandatory Thing Cards is used, the Koopaling will nullify its effect, forcing the player to use the actual mandatory Thing Cards instead.
