Tattle



The Tattle move is a move that Goombario and Goombella can do in Paper Mario and Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door. The move can be used in battle or in the field. Used in battle, Goombario or Goombella will tell about the enemy selected, listing their HP, Attack power, and Defense power. Goombario lists stats from memory, while Goombella reads the information out of the Tattle Log.

Tattling an enemy will also make a health meter appear under the enemy, indicating how much HP it has left. The health meter will then appear from that point on whenever Mario encounters the same enemy.

On the field, the Goomba partner will tell Mario about his surroundings, and if there is a character near, he or she will tell Mario about that character.

In Super Paper Mario, the Pixl Tippi can perform a similar move.
