Fishing storage
File:PMTOK Fishing Storage Glitch.png Fishing storage allows the player to hold the fishing rod outside of the restriction of the docks. Due to how loading zones work, this glitch is limited to: blue, blue, and blue. Despite this limit, this glitch is very potent due to the fishing rod having collision while held by Mario, the ability to quit fishing while catching something, and the ability to return to the dock by pressing at any time, regardless of what actions are taking place.

Methods
There are multiple methods of initiating fishing storage, all of which involve teetering:

Digging with Professor Toad First method discovered.

Reading the Sea Chart

Item Menu

Talking with Oliva

Weapon slot manipulation
The section in memory that stores Mario's party members and the section that stores Mario's equipped weapons are only separated by 4 empty bytes. By gaining a fifth partner, partner information buffer overflows into the first slot of the equipped weapons section, which the game reinterprets as the item obtained at a certain point by Mario.

For example: if Kamek (P_KMK internally) joins as the fifth partner, "K" exceeds the 4 byte buffer and overwrites the first equipped weapon slot. This is reinterpreted as 76 when converted to a number, meaning the 76th item Mario obtained will replace his Basic Hammer.

Item Drops
In Paper Mario: The Origami King, item drops are determined by an enemies assigned item drop set, a group of items that chosen at random to be dropped. There are 5* sets used in the game:

In Paper Mario: The Origami King, Mario can find &s throughout the different Streamer areas, receiving various rewards when struck open.

=Heart Point=

"HP" is a term used in numerous role-playing games, including those related to the Mario franchise, as well as the Luigi's Mansion series. It stands for "Heart Points," "Health Points," or "Hit Points," depending on the game using it, and denotes the health of a health character or object. HP can be restored using healing items such as Mushrooms, as well as Recovery Blocks (from the Paper Mario series, the Japanese version of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and all versions of its 3DS remake, Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, and Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam). Mario can also restore his HP from small hearts that can be found on the field or by defeating enemies.

When a given character's HP reaches zero, they will be downed. If the last party member (or just Mario, in the first two Paper Mario games) is downed, the player will receive a Game Over unless they have a Life Shroom (or any other type of life-restorative) in stock. To decrease the chance of this happening, Mario and the other playable characters can increase their maximum HP when leveling up in most games.

History
NOTE: A Tooltip will designate what HP stands for in a given game.

Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
Certain Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars enemies (such as Dry Bones) are stated by Mallow's Psychopath ability to have zero, although this really means that they are immune to all attacks but Magic ones, which will destroy them in one hit.

Paper Mario series

 * Paper Mario
 * Mario starts with a maximum of 10, which can be increased by five with each Level-Up, in addition to any Badges that affect.
 * Mario's partners no longer have separate ; partners will instead be stunned whenever taking damage.


 * Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
 * Each of Mario's partners once again have separate . Mario's can now be reduced to zero on the field, rather than staying at one like the previous game.
 * Partners can have their further increased when upgraded at Merlon house, at the cost of three Shine Sprites.
 * Collecting Heart Points on the field will now heal both Mario and the partner currently following him.


 * Super Paper Mario
 * Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Bowser all share the same . Their maximum will increase by five for every other Level-Up received.
 * Some enemies, such as Mr. I's, have their listed as "??". These enemies are always defeated with either a set number of attacks or a special maneuver regardless of the player's level. Conventional methods of attack may not work.


 * Paper Mario: Sticker Star
 * Mario now starts with a maximum of 20, increasing by five with each HP-Up Heart up to a total capacity of 100.


 * Paper Mario: Color Splash
 * Mario's maximum can be increased by 25 from a Max HP up! after rescuing a Big Paint Star, beginning at 50  and reaching a total capacity of 200.


 * Paper Mario: The Origami King
 * Mario's maximum is again increased by obtaining MAX UP Hearts on the field, adding either five, ten, or twenty  depending on the size of the heart.
 * Mario's maximum can exceed 200 when using a Heart Plus accessory in battle, though the extra  will be removed afterwards.
 * Additionally, the Oarsman's boat and Bowser's Airship can sustain five hits before being wrecked, rather than using Mario's.
 * Hole Punch is the only boss in the game that can lower Mario's maximum ; with each hole in his body, Mario's is halved. In order to restore his maximum, the player must find the piece missing from Mario's body or complete the battle.

Mario & Luigi series
In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions, the Woohoo Blend, which is made at the Starbeans Cafe, can increase the max number of HP a character has by four/two points. In the Mario & Luigi series following Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, the player can use Heart Beans to increase a character's max HP by one point or three points in the case of Heart Bean DXs.

Mario + Rabbids series
In Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle and Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope...

Luigi's Mansion series
In Luigi's Mansion, Luigi has a maximum of 100. Most ghosts have their own revealed by their hearts, while Boos instead indicate their health with a purple faded circle. For instance, King Boo has 500, and the remaining portrait ghosts each have 100. Boolossus is an exception, as their health is instead measured by how many of the 15 Boos remain on the field during the fight. The Nintendo 3DS remake introduces Gooigi, who has 50, and Amiibo support, allowing for more methods of restoring. All ghosts, including portrait ghosts and Boos, have their health increased by a factor of ×1.5 compared to the original game.

The frame and quality for Boss gallery ghosts (Chauncey, Bogmire, Boolossus, and King Boo) are determined by how high Luigi's health is after capturing the ghost.


 * Bronze. If Luigi fails to keep his health above 60, he will get this painting.
 * Silver. To get this portrait, Luigi's health must be kept above 60 at the end of the battle.
 * Gold. To obtain this high-quality painting, his health must not have declined below 90 at the end of the battle.
 * Platinum. For non-boss ghosts, Luigi must drain 140 in one go. For boss ghosts, Luigi must finish the battle with at least 95 . This is exclusive to the Nintendo 3DS remake.

Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon introduces stronger variants of the regular ghosts, which have increased health. While scaling the Scarescraper allies can revive Luigi after losing all his health, bringing him back with 20. These additions return in Luigi's Mansion 3, where Gooigi now has a maximum of 25 that regenerate over time, and Luigi's maximum health has been reduced to 99. Miniature variants of the Goobs and Hammers are introduced, which have zero health and thus can be vacuumed without resistance once stunned with a flash.

Luigi's Mansion Arcade opts to represent Luigi's health with only 2 hearts, which together act as a gauge. Each attack deals half of a heart of damage, essentially giving Luigi 4. The ghosts in this game also have reduced health compared to Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, which the arcade game is based on. Upon losing all health, the player can insert more credits to get a Continue Boost, which restores Luigi to full health.

Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition
In Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition, each teammate's on the player's team is totaled for their health bar when playing a course. For this reason, individual teammates cannot be KO'd, but the entire team can if their total reach zero. Clearing Heart Orbs or using -recovering Skills replenishes the player's team's health bar. Several teammates have the Awoken Skill Health Boost to raise the player's team's maximum upon entering a course, as do several Leader and Helper Skills. The player can also raise a teammate's maximum by de-powering teammates that provide  plus bonuses, each plus bonus increasing  by ten.

Super Smash Bros. series
In the Super Smash Bros. series, Master Hand and Crazy Hand appear with instead of percent digits. Additionally, Super Smash Bros. Melee and subsequent games allow the players to choose to substitute instead of percent digits in Stamina Mode. If a character's reaches zero, they will enter a fainting animation. Bosses will be defeated, and players will lose their stock.
