Flower Saver is a badge available in Paper Mario and Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. In Paper Mario, it can be bought from Merlow for twenty-five Star Pieces or obtained in a well to the east Flower Fields by throwing a Blue Berry inside it. In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, it is found in a hidden room in Creepy Steeple underneath the star statue, bought from Dazzle for ten Star Pieces, or dropped by Piranha Plants, Crazee Dayzees, and Amazy Dayzees. It can be sold for 125 coins. If Mario equips it, all moves cost one FP less than they normally would, with the FP amounts highlighted in blue text. In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, its effects were changed to only affect Mario's moves, not his partners'. Its effects stack if multiple copies of it are equipped; however, moves will not have their FP cost lower than 1. The badge has a variant named Flower Saver P that solely affects Mario's partner.

Hints[edit]

Merluvlee's predictions in Paper Mario[edit]

  • "I see...a Flower Saver Badge. There is a child upstairs in the fortune-teller's house on Shooting Star Summit. Hey! I'm that fortune-teller! Anyway, the child is my brother, Merlow. He will trade Star Pieces for Badges. Head upstairs to see him!"
  • "I see...a Flower Saver Badge. You throw a blue-colored berry into the deserted well in Flower Fields, and something throws the Badge to you."

Tolielip's "advice"[edit]

  • "Hey, you! Everybody's hero! You want to know the inside scoop on something good? If you find a well in the place with lots of dead trees, you can throw something in it to get a cool reward. Whatever you do, though, don't throw in a Blue Berry! Ha ha ha! Yeah! I'm serious! Do you believe me? Huh? Do you believe me? Do you? I've also gotta tell you... Oops, sorry. Everything else is a secret. Sorry, guy."
