Paper Mario: Sticker Star -- 3-12 Whitecap Beach

The Bloopers are on the beach with the segment. Drop down from the entrance to find something in the sand. It's the Pocket Watch. If you go on the dock, you'll see Luigi on a rock. Peel him off and he runs away. The segment is covered in poison, and still wants to battle, alongside the Bloopers. After the battle, the segment runs on the dock, turns red, and hops around. It seems upset about the poison. It runs off again to Surfshine Harbor. When you get there, follow the poison trail to the docks. The segment's clean and pestering a Toad. The segment wants to take a boat out to do something about the poison, but the Toad won't leave, as a fishing boat disappeared recently over there. The segment joins you, so take him back to Wiggler.

After Wiggler reassembles, we meet him on the dock. He hops in the water and we hold onto his head. He crosses the water with ease. He says his segments had fun seeing new things, but seeing us run after them makes him think he needs to be more responsible.

We arrive at the island, seeing a door drawn on a rock. The Secret Door leads to the Newspaper. There are Cheep-Cheep jumping out of the poisoned water. As we move on, we see more of the shipwreck, as well as a sparkly tentacle that appears out of the water to slap a rock. We go into the ship for a Heart Block and Save Block. Leave to the left and you'll find a giant, sparkly Blooper wearing the hull of the ship like a hat.

It says, "SHLOOP! SHINY SHLOOP" It peels the ship off to reveal that it is wearing a purple Royal Sticker. We get two stickers from the Battle Spin. It's the return of Gooper Blooper, with 300 HP. It claps its tentacles. We use a Shiny POW and the Jackhammer for 84 damage. It will double slap us and hit with all four tentacles. It sinks deeper into the poison and slaps the rock. It will then spray poison, which affects our aim and covers parts of the screen. This will stall us for several turns, as all attacks will miss. Best way to do it is to use the Battle Spin to get multiple attacks when you're not poisoned and use shiny stickers you can successfully execute excellently. After a while, he's finished. Kersti gives us the same spiel about using a ton of stickers. I'm open to suggestions, Kersti. Gooper Blooper says, "BLOOP-SHLOOP-SHIIIIINE!" before falling in the ocean. We grab the Royal Sticker.

The story summary says that Gooper Blooper liked to dance, but the Royal Sticker made poison gush out. A new page is added to the album. Looks like the poison's cleaned up.

Back in Decalburg, there's a new article saying Luigi has been spotted at Whitecap Beach. Unfortunately, he was initially mistaken for a mermaid. The Toads are making great progress on the Sticker Fest.

Paper Mario: Sticker Star -- 3-11 Holey Thicket

The first area has Boomerang Bros, Piranha Plants, and Poison Bloopers. The segment is hiding in the long shrub with some Bloopers. We go behind the shrub and the Bloopers carry it off. They went to the left, but there's nothing there. We leave the area and see them carry off the segment between 3-11 and the island. Nothing we can do, but open a path. The next area has a patch of missing Bowser tape. The comet piece is out of reach, but replacing, then peeling the Bowser tape should work. We jump up the ledge and peel off Bowser tape, and move on to the left. Leave the first piece of Bowser tape you encounter alone as it uncovers a poison pool. The Bowser tape on the ground near the Boomerang Bro uncovers a hole. Drop down it into a cavern with a Spike Top and a Boomerang Bro. Follow the ramp up to a tree with fruit and Bowser tape. This tape is what was missing.

Jump down and go to the second area to replace it. Peel the tape to reveal stairs to the comet piece. There's another area we can now reach, so let's check it out. There's a Toad being held by two Poison Bloopers and another comet piece. We talk to them and Kersti suggests we pay the Bloopers off with 50 coins, but I prefer to battle. They have 14 HP each. A Boomerang easily takes care of them. The Toad is thankful. He says his travels have been rough so he sought peace in the forest. The poison is preventing him from "getting his lounge on". He gives us a Shiny Mushroom. He's going somewhere more fast-paced. Perhaps he lives in the red house in Decalburg. Nothing else to do but get the comet piece. This one opens the path to 3-9.

To reach the other comet piece, go to the third area, where you found Toad. To the right is a large pool of poison with a hole in it. The tunnel leads to another area with Boomerang Bros and Piranha Plants, as well as a door drawing. The Secret Door leads to coins and a Balloon. The path to the left leads to an item block with a Shiny POW Block, Shiny Fire Flower, and Shiny Ice Flower. To the right is a hole in the wall surrounded by poison. It leads to the doorway to the comet piece. The path to 3-12 opens up.

Paper Mario: Sticker Star -- 3-9 Gauntlet Pond

Gauntlet Pond is an obstacle course over poison. The third segment is here. There are Poison Bloopers in the area. Go across the swinging logs to the other side. There's some Bowser tape below, which releases a log in the poison. It leads to the segment, which takes off. We follow it to the next area to the right. It's in the middle of the area. Go up the stairs and use the swinging log to cross the gap to another log held by Bower tape. Use that to transfer to where the segment is. It will hop to the other side of the poison. There's a Starman in the middle of the poison. There is a door drawn on a tree in the back. The Secret Door leads to some item blocks with three stickers each. The path to the next area is in the back.

The next area has the comet piece. The segment is stuck in a floating stump. Peel the Bowser tape below to release the log. Jump from the swinging logs across the poison. Transfer from the rising log to three swinging logs. This will take you to a path to the first area. Peel the Bowser tape to reveal some stairs. Paperize and place a sticker over the poison spewing from the tree to reach a path to the previous area. We can now reach the segment. We cross the poison to where the Ninji is and jump from the swinging log to reach where the comet piece is. The path to 3-10 opens up. Of course, the segment runs off. This forest is huge.

After the poison clears, return to the area with the comet piece. You'll find the Sponge on a patch of land near a swinging log. You can reach the patch of land from the ground. In the second area, follow the plants that form an arrow on the ground. This leads to a hidden area with an HP-Up Heart.
