Cheats for Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (GAMECUBE)

Luigi clothes
To get Luigi's clothes, go to where you get the sixth crystal star. From here, do a spring jump up to a pole on the left side. Do another spring jump to reach a ledge with the Luigi Emblem.

Waluigi clothes
Equip both the Luigi Emblem and the Wario Emblem at the same time. Your clothes will be exactly like Waluigi's.

Wario clothes
To get Wario's clothes, go to the central area of Rougeport with 360 Coins. There should be a merchant with a large mustache. He sells something called a Wario Emblem from time to time. It is a badge that requires no badge points to wear.

Select Yoshi's color
Start a new game and enter the name of a color as a name. When Yoshi joins your party during the game, he will appear as that color.

Easy Star points in Creepy Steeple
In the forest before the Creepy Steeple, make sure you can inflict 20 points worth of damage on one turn (Mario and partner). When you face a Crayzee Dayzee (on the field), sometimes an Amazee Dayzee appears. It has 20 HP and 20 attack, and induces sleep after the first turn. When defeated, they give about 50 Star points. Defeat two for an instant level up.

Easy Star points in Glitz Pit
When you get into the Glitz Pit, fight until you are near rank 7 or 8. You should now be fighting "the fuzz". Kill the black Fuzzie that has 3 HP then kill the Flower Fuzzy (pinky). Next, keep the green one near 1 HP remaining. He will split in two. Kill one of them (always leave one alive). It also helps when you have Koops out for a partner. Just leave Mario in front and Koops in back and use his Shell Shield (new attack when you upgrade him). Every time that it breaks, put a new one on. It helps to have some Happy Heart or Happy Flower badges equipped. Keep doing this and you can get 50 Star points in about five minutes.

Easy upgrade in Hooktail's Castle
To upgrade your party members twice, go to Hooktail's Castle. At the room where the ceiling closes in on you with spikes, at the end it there is a wall that can be blown up. Use Admiral Bobery to blow up the wall. Inside is an Up Crystal. Give it to Merlin and then you will be able to upgrade your partners twice.

Paper Mario reference in Hooktail Castle
The corpse in Hooktail Castle has the name Kolorado in it. He was a Koopa in the original Paper Mario.

Easy HP and FP in Keelhaul Key
Once you reach Keelhaul Key, go behind the mountain near the harbor. A blue mole (Whakka) should appear. Hit him once with your hammer, Koops, or Admiral Bobbery. He should make a remark like, "OW! That hurts!" or something similar. He will leave an item that heals 25 HP and FP called the Whakka Bump. Keep going into town (or in the cave nearby when you blow a hole into it) and return. Whakka will reappea. You can keep hitting him for more items. However, be careful. Once he starts singing, that will be the last time you will see him after he is hit.

Infinite Turtly Leaves in Petalburg
After plucking one leaf in front of the pink house, go left across the bridge. Return to the pink house and pluck more. Keep doing this to get unlimited Turtly leaves. Take the Turtly Leaves to Zess T.'s house in Rogueport to the left of the item shop. He will turn the leaves into Koopa Tea, which is better than Turtly Leaves. Koopa Tea gives you 7 FP and Turtly Leaves only give you 3 FP.

Get a prize in Pinta Parlor
When you gamble in the slot machine, listen to the music on it. When you hear the end of the jingle and it starts again, press A. Do this two more times and you will get a prize of some kind.

When you think the spikes will come up, press X and Vivian will take you under the spikes, then come up when they go down. At the end of the room is a chest with the badge that lets you jump attack spiked enemies and not get hurt. Unfortunately it does not help you get across the spiked floor. Repeat the previous technique to get back out.

    Mario's maze
    When underground in the Thousand Year Door level, you will reach a part where if you make a wrong move you will end-up at the beginning. There are four doors. Never go back, so there are really only two to choose from. First, take the one straight across the room, then again in the next room. In the third room, go upstairs to the door facing the right-hand side. In the fourth room, do the same thing. Then in room 5, take the bottom right-hand door. In room 6 take the top right-hand door. Finally, in room 7 take the bottom right-hand door. Quickly save the game, as you will face four Bosses. Stock up on health supplies and thunder items.
