Charge (move)



Charge is an attack that Goombario and some enemies used in Paper Mario. This attack is very similar to the badge of the same name. It uses up one FP to raise his attack power by two the next time he attacks. It is possible to Charge multiple times in a row for an increased effect. Goombario can only uses this move after he is at the Super Rank. Multibonk, another one of Goombario's moves, can become extremely powerful when Goombario charges it; it will significantly increase the attack's power.

However, Goombario isn't the only one with Charge in Paper Mario. Some enemies, most noticibly the Hyper Cleft, Hyper Goomba and their winged and spiky relatives. This skill returns in the sequel where it is a badge for both Mario and his partners. Enemies and some bosses, such as Marilyn, Gloomtail and the Shadow Queen, have this skill as well.
