Mega Rush

Mega Rush is a badge in the Paper Mario series

In Paper Mario, this badge is in a secret room in a secret room in Tubba Blubba's Castle. This badge is on the left side of the castle, but it is in a room that is blocked by a grandfather clock. Once the clock is moved, Mario can access a secret bedroom. Inside, Mario can climb the drawers and use Parakarry to get onto the bed. The bed houses some coins and a secret entrance to another room. Inside of this second room is this badge and a window. This badge costs 1 BP to wear. This badge isn't that great in this game, however. Mega Rush gives Mario 4 attack power so long as he is in peril. So, if Mario has 1 Hp left he gains 4 attack but, when is he in peril, huh?

In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, this badge reappears and is found only once in the game. Charlieton, a seller of fine badges and items, will sell this badge to Mario for a reasonable price. This price is only 60 coins. Mega Rush still isn't that great and since Mario cannot get any multiples of this badge, it lowers its usefullness. This badge still costs only 1 BP, but does have a good use. Mario can combine this badge with the Trial Stew Item. Trial Stews automatically deal damage to Mario so that he has only 1 HP left. This badge then would kick in causing him to have increased attack power. The only problem with this is that Trial Stews are made with two other items that have to formulated using multiple items. And one of those items is hard to get!
