Stampede
From the Super Mario Wiki
This article is about one of Yoshi Kid's special moves. For information about the mini-game found in Mario Party 8, see Stampede (mini-game).
Stampede is an attack in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door that is used exclusively by the Yoshi Kid. This attack will summon a Yoshi herd that will stampede (hence the name) on all enemies. To perform this attack, alternate between pressing L and R. This move costs six flower points, but will take 6 heart points from every on-screen enemy that has no defense. However, if an enemy has even one point of defense, Stampede will not harm it because the attack consists of six hits, dealing one point each. If attack-boosting badges are worn, the first hit will do the full amount of damage and each subsequent hit will do one less damage, down to one point. Therefore, if two attack boosters are being worn, then Stampede will damage enemies that have down to two points of defence.
The in-game description states that it damages all ground enemies, when it actually damages all enemies on screen, whether they are on the ground, flying or on the ceiling.
