I Spy (badge)

I Spy is a badge that appears only in Paper Mario.

I Spy does not, however, make an appearance in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. This power was replaced by Ms. Mowz and her ability to sniff out items. This badge costs only 1 BP to wear and has a useful ability. This badge allows Mario to find any and all flip panels in every location in the game. Flip Panels are small panels that Mario can flip over from the ground. These panels reveal a Star Piece upon the flip. Mario can flip these panels over by spin jumping, tornado jumping, or smashing the ultra hammer. These panels do reappear in the second installment and are opened via a spin jump.
