Li'l-Oink

Li'l Oinks are minor characters in Paper Mario.

These fine critters are found only in the southern area of Toad Town, located in the pen near the train station. There is a Toad near the pen that is just fascinated by these little guys. He, if Mario asks, will explain the Li'l Oink system. Upon trying it out for the first time, Mario will be told by this toad of the info as well. There are many different types of Li'l Oinks and many different and powerful items can be obtained from here. Every time an eleventh Li'l Oink enters the pen, the oldest pig leaves. He parts, leaving an item behind. Depending on the color of pig, a different item appears. This is one of the few ways to obtain many Ultra Shrooms and Jammin Jellies. Also, this is the only way to get an infinite number of Repel Gel, the rarest item in the game.
