Earth Tremor



Earth Tremor is a special move used in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. This is the second special attack that Mario learns in the game after defeating Hooktail and receiving the Diamond Star from Koopley. It involves Mario and his partner jumping on an enlarged Diamond Star and the player must hit the A button at the appropriate time. If the player manages to get to the end of an entire round of pressing the A button, the star will enlarge. The attack power increases as the star gets bigger. Maximum power is after six rounds. This is usually made to hit ground enemies, but if Mario can get high enough, he can hit flying enemies, even Swoopers up on the ceiling if the action command is "excellent".
