First Attack

First Attack is a badge that appears in both Paper Mario and Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.

In Paper Mario, First Attack is obtainable at Rowf's badge shop. It is on sale there for 100 coins. The badge is helpful early on or later on when you don't want to fight useless encounters. It activates when Mario unleashes a first strike on an enemy that doesn't give Mario Star Points. It is a stronger version of Dizzy Attack but it is replaced by Bump Attack.

In TTYD, First Attack, like Bump Attack, has lost value. At the end of any battle Mario will recieve a bonus Star Point if he doesn't get any from the actual fight. First Attack in this game is oddly placed in the Lovely Howz of Badges, the badge shop in this game. Another coincidence is that the price is also 100 coins like in the last game.
