Trio Kite

Trio Kite is the second available Trio Attack for Paper Mario in Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam. It becomes available for Paper Mario to use after being delivered to the group by Toads. It costs 8 BP to use, and hits a single target.

As with all trio attacks, Mario, Luigi and Paper Mario will strike the enemy with a giant papercraft hammer, before the background changes to a grass and sky area. The targeted enemy is flattened onto the bottom of a kite. After pressing Y, the player must mash A as quickly as possible, to make Mario run as far as possible with the kite, before repeating the process with Luigi and the B button, Paper Mario with the Y button, and finally Mario with A again. After running as much distance as possible, Paper Mario will walk up the swing of the kite, before he and his copies strike the enemy attached to the kite with a well-timed press of Y. The game measures the amount of distance Paper Mario falls while slamming the enemy into the ground.
