Bean



Beans are collectible items that have made an appearance in two games to date.

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga
Beans are plentiful in this game, and while collecting them is entirely optional (and time-consuming), they will help Mario and Luigi. There are four kinds of beans in the game, and each is acquired in a different way.


 * Woo Beans are green and are usually found after fighting enemies around Beanbean Castle Town.
 * Hee Beans are yellow and are awarded as prizes in minigames in Stardust Fields, Hoohoo Mountain, The S.S. Chuckola, and Little Fungitown.
 * Chuckle Beans are red and hidden underground. When Mario and Luigi come across an "X" or some other distinguishing feature on the ground, Mario can perform the Luigi Dunk to pound Luigi underground. By popping out of the ground at the spot of the "X", Luigi will uncover a Chuckle Bean.
 * Hoo Beans are brown and the rarest type. They are found in invisible ? Blocks in seemingly dead end areas. By jumping around, one might uncover one of these Blocks, always containing one Hoo Bean. Additional invisible ? Blocks containing five or seven Hoo Beans can be found in Joke's End and the Koopa Cruiser after it is repaired. As a final supply, there is a pair of Oho Jees south of Oho Oasis running a surfing game that awards Hoo Beans, along with Woo and Chuckle Beans.

All beans are taken to the Starbeans CafÃ©, where they are blended into stat-boosting coffee for Mario and Luigi.

Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time
In this game, Beans are dug up by Baby Mario and Baby Luigi. These can be traded to Fawful for badges. The Beans in this game bear a resemblance to Hee Beans.

Trivia
Interestingly enough, a man in Beanbean Castle Town says that most of the Beanish people are too lazy to search for them; that's why there are so many Chuckle Beans scattered about the land.
