Squarp hole

A Squarp Hole is a small circular opening in space in Super Paper Mario. They are violet-colored Worm Holes with triangles and circles surrounding them.

Squarp Holes can only be found in Chapters 4-1 and 4-3. In Chapter 4-1, after Mario meets up with Squirps, Squirps creates one using Mario's power, and Mario then uses many other Squarp Holes to reach the end of the level. In Chapter 4-3, after Squirps demands food, Mario navigates a maze of Squarp Holes in order to reach a convenience store in space. In the game, they are used to transport characters from one part of the level to another, much like Warp Pipes in many other Mario games. As Squirps puts it, "It's like warping, only Squirps invented it!" It is unknown as to how the other Squarp Holes aside from the one created with Mario's power were created. It is possible that the power of the Pure Heart was used, or that the power to make holes naturally occurs in Squirp's family or species.

Trivia

 * Squarp Hole is a portmanteau of "Squirps" and "Warp Hole".
