Attack FX B

Attack FX B is a badge that makes an appearance in Paper Mario and Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.

In its first appearance in Paper Mario, Attack FX B gives Mario a new sound that is made when a hammer or jump attack is used in battle. Like all of the other Attack FX badges, Attack FX B makes a sound when Mario uses his hammer ouside of combat as well. The sound that Attack FX B makes in this installment is a loud flute sound.

This badge is found in a secret box outside of Koopa Village. On Pleasant Path, there are three blocks that are in a triangle formation in front of the entrance to Koopa Village. By hitting the blocks in a special order: Top, Right, Left; Mario can make a hidden block to appear. Hitting the block's location beforehand has no result. Inside of the block is this badge.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
In the sequel to Paper Mario, Attack FX B makes an appearance. It is the only attack FX badge that does make a reappearance, although it doesn't make the same sound as it did in the last game nor does it have the same sprite, as it is blue rather than red. The sound the badge makes in this game, resembles that of a sqeak.

In TTYD, Attack FX B is found in a secret area inside of Hooktail Castle. This could possibly be a reference to its hidden location in the last game. It is only obtainable after a certain point in the game has past and a new person named ??? has a task for Mario. ??? will tell Mario to go to Hooktail Castle and Collect a badge there. Mario must use flurrie to move a hidden square area in the center of the large room Hooktail was fought in. The badge is in this hidden chest. Then, Mario must hand-deliver the badge to ???, in doing so, she tells him that Mario needs her badge stealing tactics and joins the party. She lets Mario keep the badge.
