Bros. Point

Bros. Points are a special stat found in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, Mario & Luigi: Dream Team and Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam. Bros. Points behave similarly to the Flower Points of the Paper Mario series in that they are used to perform Special Moves, which in the Mario & Luigi series are known as Bros. Attacks. Bros. Points are increased each time Mario or Luigi level up.

In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, the meter in the image with the red and green ball shows how many Bros. Points Mario and Luigi have. Mario or Luigi must drink Syrup Jar or use a similar item in order to regain lost Bros. Points. The Mario Bros. receive their first Bros. Attack in Stardust Fields along with a field command.

Bros. Points are absent in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time as Bros. Attacks were replaced with Bros. Items. Special Points (SP) were used in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story due to Bowser having his own Special Attacks also due to this the bros could use all special attacks regardless of whose turn it is unlike in Superstar Saga where you need a certain bro to preform that attack.

Bros. Points return in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, behaving exactly like the first game, with the exception that they are also used for Luiginary Attacks while in the Dream World. The Shell icon used for representing SP in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story is used to represent Bros. Points in this game.

Bros. Points reappear again in Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam, where the function the same way they did in the previous two games. They can also be used for Trio Attacks controlled by Paper Mario.
