Garnet Star

The Garnet Star is the sixth of the Crystal Stars Mario collects in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. The Garnet Star is kept in a secret area of the Poshley Sanctum in Poshley Heights, which the Sanctum's owner, Pennington, didn't even know about. A fake Garnet Star is on display in the main hall of the Sanctum, which is meant to attract tourists and trick thieves, which works on the Shadow Sirens and Doopliss, as well as Bowser and Kammy Koopa, as they confuse it with the real thing. This makes the fake Garnet Star an actual, fitting the detective theme of Chapter 6. Upon finding the real Garnet Star, it teaches Mario the move Showstopper. It was also after Mario and friends found this Star and before shutting down TEC, Grodus decided to forget about following Mario to obtain the other stars, considering he would just open the Thousand Year Door for him.

During the final battle with the Shadow Queen, when the Crystal Stars spread out to the locations as to where they were found, the Star returns to the Poshley Sanctum, where Pennington (realizing Mario is not Luigi), Toodles, Goldbob, Bub and Sylvia root for Mario and his team before their imminent victory against the evil queen.
