'''Point Swaps''' are items found in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. They are commonly sold at [[Glitzville]] [[Souvenir Shop|Shop]] for five [[coins]] each. This item will allow [[Mario]] to switch his [[Heart Point|HP]] and [[Flower Point|FP]]. If one of those two stats are greater than the other's limit, it will not exceed it and will just stop at the maximum number of points allowed. Also, if Mario has his FP at 0 while using this item, his partner will be KO'd instantly. If Mario uses it himself when his FP is 0, he will receive a [[Game Over]].

'''Point Swaps''' are items found in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. They are commonly sold at the [[Glitzville]] [[souvenir shop (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|souvenir shop]] for five [[coin]]s each. When used, this item will allow [[Mario]] or his [[partner]] to switch their [[Heart Point|HP]] and [[Flower Point|FP]]. This does not allow either stat to exceed its normal maximum; any "overflow" points are simply lost. Using a Point Swap when FP is 0 will successfully reduce the target's HP to 0, and apply whatever consequences normally occur.


==Cooking==
==Cooking==
Cooking an item with Point Swap often yields the item that restores the same amount of the other stat. The table below shows all the counterparts this item has to offer. Some combinations can also work in reverse. Point Swap recipes aren't recorded in the Recipes journal except for [[Poison Shroom]].
Cooking a Point Swap with another item has various results. For restoration items, an HP-restoring item will usually turn into an FP-restoring item of the same amount and vice versa. For attack and status items, the result is often an item that is conceptually the reverse or opposite of the first item, and again is usually reversible. Point Swap [[recipe]]s are not recorded in the Recipes journal except for those that create [[Poison Mushroom|Poison Shroom]]s.

Point Swap
Point Swap TTYD.png
The Thousand-Year Door description Swaps your partner's HP and FP. (Cannot exceed max.)

Point Swaps are items found in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. They are commonly sold at the Glitzville souvenir shop for five coins each. When used, this item will allow Mario or his partner to switch their HP and FP. This does not allow either stat to exceed its normal maximum; any "overflow" points are simply lost. Using a Point Swap when FP is 0 will successfully reduce the target's HP to 0, and apply whatever consequences normally occur.

Cooking

Cooking a Point Swap with another item has various results. For restoration items, an HP-restoring item will usually turn into an FP-restoring item of the same amount and vice versa. For attack and status items, the result is often an item that is conceptually the reverse or opposite of the first item, and again is usually reversible. Point Swap recipes are not recorded in the Recipes journal except for those that create Poison Shrooms.
