Trio Attack: Difference between revisions

{{distinguish|Trio Move}}

'''Trio Attacks''' are special methods of attacking, like [[Bros. Attack]]s, that are utilized by [[Paper Mario (character)|Paper Mario]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]''. These attacks require [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], and Paper Mario to work together to attack enemies.

Mario, Luigi, and Paper Mario learn five Trio Attacks through their adventure. Trio Attacks use up Paper Mario's [[Bros. Point]]s; each one uses between 6 and 15 points. They are brought to the Bros. by [[Toad (species)|Toads]] as a special delivery from [[Peach's Castle]] after certain points in the story have been passed.

During the final battle, [[Shiny RoboBowser]] is able to counter any Trio Attack while his armor is still in good enough shape.  He also uses a Trio Attack-style attack immediately afterwards if Mario and the gang try to hit him with one when his helmet isn't destroyed.

|''Press each character's button as fast as possible when indicated. The faster you push the buttons, the higher the kite will fly. When <font color=orange>Paper Mario</font color> climbs up the string, that's your sign to attack.

|''Use the <font color=blue>Circle Pad</font color> to steer your characters around the spiral. You can press {{button|3ds|Y}} to dive faster. Pass through as many rings as possible, and try to collect all the enemies. You collect enemies simply by ploughing through them on your way down. The same goes for <font color=blue>rings</font color>. Aim for them and dive through! At the bottom, press {{button|3ds|A}} just as you reach each platform to punch through. The number of <font color=blue>rings</font color> you hit determines how many platforms there will be at the end.''

|''Aim the cursor at the falling enemies with the <font color=blue>Circle Pad</font color>. The cursor will lock on to an enemy. At that point you can release the Circle Pad. Depending on who is holding the shuriken, throw it with either {{button|3ds|A}} or {{button|3ds|B}}. As the shuriken nears an enemy, press {{button|3ds|Y}} to deal a lot of damage. The character holding the shuriken will switch each turn. Keep throwing the shuriken to attack by pressing {{button|3ds|A}}{{button|3ds|Y}} {{button|3ds|B}}{{button|3ds|Y}} {{button|3ds|A}}{{button|3ds|Y}} {{button|3ds|B}}{{button|3ds|Y}}. Throw a giant shuriken at the end with {{button|3ds|A}}, and don't forget to press {{button|3ds|Y}}. Aim for when the enemies overlap to deal a lot of damage at once.''

|''As each meteor drops, you can control it by using the <font color=blue>Circle Pad</font color>. The meteors generate wind that you can use to collect the enemies in one spot. For maximum impact, use the wind to gather all the enemies in the <font color=blue>central crater</font color>. Once they're in the <font color=blue>crater</font color>, the enemies won't blow around much, so it's easier to hit them. As the meteors get close, start aiming directly for the enemies. Press each character's button to jump off his meteor at the last second. Hitting all of the enemies at once deals huge damage! If each meteor hits an enemy, you'll get a bonus attack! Press {{button|3ds|A}}, {{button|3ds|B}}, and {{button|3ds|Y}} to jump.''
