* "''Mario! I'm so glad you're OK! The town is in an uproar! The princess kidnapped! The very castle uprooted! It's bedlam! I really don't know what we can do about all this... Please, Mario! Save Her Highness!''"
* "''The town is in an uproar! The princess kidnapped! The very castle uprooted! It's bedlam! Please, Mario! Save Her Highness!''"
* "''The road in front of the Toad House connects to scenic Pleasant Path. But I heard that there are weird Toads blocking the way. Who could they be?''"
* "''The weird Toads were actually guys called Koopa Bros.? Is that bad? I guess these Koopa Bros. are loyal to Bowser?''"
* "''I heard that the train can't move. Folks are saying that a giant boulder is blocking the tracks. If only there were some way of destroying it, we could travel by rail again.''"
* "''People are saying that the train started moving again. Now folks can go to Mt. Rugged! I'll tell you, it's tough to travel if the train won't move.''"
* "''Mario! Grr...rrrr... Just a second ago, a Shy Guy ran into Russ T.'s house! Eek... What should we do... Um...er... Do something, please!''"*
* "''Oh, that wily Shy Guy! He stole Russ T.'s Dictionary! Russ T. really loved that Dictionary, too. LOVED it. Poor Russ T.... You're his only hope, Mario! Get it back for him!''"
* "''You were able to get Russ T.'s Dictionary back? Whoa! Way to go, Mario! Russ T. must be overjoyed.''"
* "''Lavalava Island? It's an island in the sea way south of Toad Town, isn't it? Folks say there's a volcano on the island that could erupt any time now. If it does, you'll sure see some lavalava!''"
* "''You're going to go to Lavalava Island? You have heard about the volcano, right? The one that people say could blow at any moment? Do you really think it's safe to go there? OK...but travel carefully.''"
* "''Hey, Mario, Minh T. would like you to lend her a hand. She runs the flower garden. Flower Fields, a land covered in flowers, is supposedly in grave danger. I told her I'd send you over to her to learn more.''"
* "''What's going on in Flower Fields? Bad trouble? I guess we're not the only folks who have problems.''"
* "''I wonder how Princess Peach and the others in the castle are doing? You think they're...suffering? I wish things would go back to normal again so that we could all live in peace. Mario... you're the only one we can truly rely on.''"
* "''You always help us during hard times, Mario. When you're in trouble, who's there to lend a hand? ...Mario... I know there's not much we can do to help, but we'll be rooting for you always.''"
|data-label="Goombario's Tattle" style="font-size:90%"|
* "''This Toad is always standing in front of the gate. Is it his job, maybe? He looks as if he's asleep on his feet, but he actually knows quite a bit about the town.''"

|data-label="Quotes" style="font-size:90%"|
* "''Oh, no! Doom! Danger! Princess Peach's Castle has flown away, up into the sky! No castle! Horrors! Only a hole remains! Our beloved castle! Where is it? Spread the word! Outrage!''"
* "''Oh, no! Danger! Strange Toads are about in front of the Toad House! They don't look trustworthy! Beware, people, beware!''"
* "''Big news, people! The Koopa Bros. are running rampant at the end of our Pleasant Path! They fight for Bowser! There's even word that they work poor, innocent Bob-ombs like slave drivers. Mario's going to kick their shells in! Just wait! Attention, people! Listen up!''"
* "''Oh, ill news! Dry Dry Railroad is not running! The horror of it all! A giant rock has made travel impossible. The train won't move! We can't go to Mt. Rugged! Oh, no. Oh, ruin! Big problem, people!''"
* "''Listen up, people! Huge news! Dry Dry Railroad started working again! Mario got rid of the rock that blocked the way! We can go to Mt. Rugged now! Good news! Fortune! Joy!''"
* "''Oh, fright! Spooky news! A Boo has been sighted in town near Forever Forest! I didn't actually see it with my own eyes...but I heard about it! Terror! Be afraid, people!''"
* "''Oh, cruel fate! Mischievous Shy Guys are running loose in Toad Town! It is a plague! Your precious treasures are in peril! Danger!''"
* "''Big news, people! Huge news! Mario taught those Shy Guys a lesson they won't forget! Our town is peaceful again! (Except for people shouting!) It's big news, people. We're talking massive news!''"
* "''Alert! Big news, people! Minh T., our kind citizen who tends to the flower garden, has word of trouble brewing. Flower Fields, a land peopled with fair flowers, is mired in grave danger! Someone must gather special seeds to help Flower Fields!''"
* "''Big news, people! Wake up! A door has appeared in Minh T.'s flower garden. This door is, according to my sources, a portal to the land of flowers, Flower Fields. I'm talking big news, here!''"
* "''Big news, people, wow! Mario beat the pollen out of Bowser's henchmen! Flower Fields is saved! Big news, folks. Great news!''"
* "''Rally, people! Big news! Our hero Mario is finally going to Bowser's Castle! Bring back good news, Mario! Good luck! Bowser's going down! Fight hard! Be strong!''"
|data-label="Goombario's Tattle" style="font-size:90%"|
* "''This Toad is always very excited about whatever news he has. He's a little crazy. Even so, it's a good idea to listen to him. He may be a little excitable, but he always has news.''"

|data-label="Quotes" style="font-size:90%"|
* "''The castle was taken away, and Princess Peach was kidnapped. These are dark days. Everyone in town is suffering, and yet my heart cares for nothing but you, my sweet. Does that make me wicked?''" "''My heart is the same, my love. It cares for you, none other. We are both wicked Toads.''"
* "''If Bowser himself were to come down and kidnap you... I would not hesitate to vanquish him and save you.''" "''Oh! My sweet hero... you're so brave and true.''"
* "''Whatever obstacle comes, our love will see us through. The power of my love could blow up any roadblock!''" "''Oh! You're so romantic. Our love is explosive...''"
* "''If Bowser himself were to come down and kidnap you... I would not hesitate to vanquish him and save you.''" "''Oh! My sweet hero... you're such a tough guy.''"
* "''I do not fear ghosts. The only thing I fear is the thought of losing you.''" "''Uh... I'm sorry, but I think... I'm more scared of ghosts. Oh, forgive my errant words!''"
* "''I heard that Shy Guys are causing trouble all over town. But as long as you're with me, you will always be safe!''" "''As long as you stay with me, I shall have nothing to fear but too much love!''"
* "''I want to take you to some far-off land. Perhaps to a southern island where we can be all alone... or perhaps to some distant and undiscovered world.''" "''You're so sweet! How about the legendary Lavalava Island? I will go anywhere in the world as long as you're beside me.''"
* "''You are like the sun to me! Gazing down on me with warmth and loveliness, heating up my heart. Oh! Without you I would wither up and be no more!''" "''Oh! Your flowery praise! This sun will never set upon you, my love!''"
* "''Let's wish to the Stars that we'll stay together forever. I hope that you and I need never be apart again.''" "''Your heart echoes mine! Life without you is just a pale illusion.''"
* "''I heard that you are going to defeat Bowser so our fair land will once again find peace.''" "''Please succeed, Mario! So we two Toads can stay together forever...''"
|data-label="Goombario's Tattle" style="font-size:90%"|
* "''This Toad claims that he and his girl are in love. But just the other day, he told me he liked a different girl! What a cad!''"
* "''Those Toads are in love. They're so in love, they don't even notice what's going on. Unless you like seeing public displays of affection, I wouldn't talk to them. They're shameless.''"

|data-label="Quotes" style="font-size:90%"|
* "''Hey, Mario, did you know you can carry up to 10 items? When you can't carry any more items, it's a good idea to go to a shop like this and ask them to hold items for you. You can even claim the items at any other shop. Pretty convenient, huh?''"
* "''I heard that to the east, along Pleasant Path, there are many loyal Koopa Bros. followers. The Mushrooms and Fire Flowers you can buy at a shop will help you survive.''"
* "''Hey... I bet you didn't know that there's another shop here in Toad Town. The merchandise they carry is slightly different. You might want to check it out sometime.''"
* "''I didn't ever think our town would have ghosts in it. How scary... Of course, I'd heard there were lots of them deep within Forever Forest, but not here! I'd never go wandering in there, not for a million coins. Brrrrrr...''"
* "''I just saw some Shy Guys go by. I'd bet anything that they're up to no good again. Who knows where they went, but wherever they are, I'm sure they're causing trouble.''"
* "''Russ T.'s Dictionary was stolen! Can you believe it? Somebody ought to stop those guys before they strike again!''"
* "''You got Russ T.'s Dictionary back? Wow! Mario, you're the best! He must have been really happy.''"
* "''Do you keep using one favorite item all the time? It's fine to have favorites, but you really should experiment with other items. You might just find one that's even cooler.''"
|data-label="Goombario's Tattle" style="font-size:90%"|
* "''This Toad always stands in front of the shop. He knows all about items. He never moves, as far as I can tell. Maybe he's trying to get a tan.''"
|-

|data-label="Quotes" style="font-size:90%"|
* "''Oh?...Ha ha ha! You don't have it? The Degree, Mario. The Degree shows how strong you are. Ha ha ha... I have it. I fought at the Dojo over there and got it from The Master. I am one bad Toad!''"
* "''Hey, that's... a First-Degree Card! I have one, too. See? A First-Degree Card!! That means I'm as strong as you! Cool! I'm bad! Yeah!''"
* "''Hey, that's... a Second-Degree Card? Whoa! Cool! You fought your way to a Second-Degree Card? Mario, you're awesome!''"
* "''Hey, that's... a Third-Degree Card? Whoa! Wow! Whoop! I knew you were strong!''"
* "''Hey, that's... a Fourth-Degree Card! Whoa! Amazing! You rule, Mario! You must be crazy strong!''"
* "''Whoa! Can it be? That's... a Diploma??? Whooooopeee! It's real, isn't it? You defeated The Master! Wow! You're the best, Mario!''"
|data-label="Goombario's Tattle" style="font-size:90%"|
* "''This Toad has tried his skills at the Dojo. That takes guts... Someday I'm gonna try it all by myself.''"
|-
|style="text-align:center"|[[File:PM Toad Blue.png]]<br>A blue Toad near the path.
|data-label="Quotes" style="font-size:90%"|
* "''Mario, have you gone back to your house yet? Luigi was wondering how you were doing. You can go home through that pipe in front of the main gate over there. You can enter the pipe by standing on the edge and pushing down on the Control Stick. Say, why don't you give me a tour of your house someday?''"
* "''The Master of the Dojo came back from his training. Before he left, he said he wouldn't return until he was incredibly strong. He must be pretty tough by now.''"
* "''Two Shy Guys just ran by! One seems to have invaded the shop over there. The owner was not happy! I have no idea where the other one went. Those guys can disappear in the blink of an eye. I bet they're still around here...''"
* "''You know, I'm getting pretty fed up with these Shy Guys. They didn't use to be such a big nuisance to the town. Little pranks are one thing, but when you start stealing people's precious treasures, that's just wrong.''"
* "''Mario, you're really showing those Shy Guys a thing or two! Things just seem to work out when you're around. You'll be able to beat Bowser and save the princess soon, don't you think?''"
* "''Have you heard about the monster at the port? Everyone is pretty shook up. But I'm not. I know you'll take care of it!''"
* "''Mario... People's wishes haven't been coming true lately. It seems like right now, only the bad guys' wishes are coming true. Is it all in my head?''"
* "''May I ask you something, Mario? Why don't you just go save the princess right now? I thought you had a long history of beating up Bowser...''"
* "''Mario... Is it... Is it tougher this time to take on Bowser? Is he somehow stronger than before? Is that why you're having to work so hard?''"
* "''Mario, I heard you're going to the far north. Bring a sweater or something. And be careful! It's dangerous!''"
* "''Mario, I heard you're going to storm Bowser's Castle. There's not much that I can do, but I'll be cheering you on. I wish I were a hero like you.''"
|data-label="Goombario's Tattle" style="font-size:90%"|
* "''He doesn't seem to have any particular reason to be at the Dojo. He's not fighting. He just loiters around, checking out the fighters. Maybe he just likes watching tough guys. I bet he'll cheer for us if we challenge The Master.''"

|data-label="Quotes" style="font-size:90%"|
* "''The earthquake when the castle flew away was terrifying! Everything was shaking... the ground...the houses... I fell right over! It was so horrifying... that I'd just like to forget it ever happened.''"
* "''Toad Town without a castle... It just doesn't seem right. Less castle-filled, somehow. Do you think it'll ever be like the old days around here?''"
* "''Since I worked at the castle, I have nothing to do for a while. You'd think that'd be relaxing. But this house isn't exactly restful during the day. My wife doesn't even have any spare time to spend with me. She works all day cleaning stuff up and dealing with the kids. It must be tough, doing all that work.''"
* "''I think it's time I stopped moping around about the castle being stolen. My wife is busy working, so... I guess I'll go on a walk with my children.''"
* "''Take off, you lousy Shy Guy! I don't care how convincing your Mario disguise is! You aren't getting in! Stay away from my family!''"**
* "''We've been cooped up too long for fear of those dastardly Shy Guy troublemakers. We need some exercise. It's high time we went on a family walk, I think. The kids should stretch their legs. There's nothing like a bit of fresh air and exercise to revitalize the spirit!''"
* "''I've begun helping my wife with the chores. ...I'm thinking that the work I did at the castle was much easier than this. I had no idea... I have to get down on my knees and thank my wife for all the work she does every day!''"
* "''I've been playing this strange game with my children. It's pretty difficult. The kids say I stink at it, too! Those rascals... They have a surprise coming... I've been practicing at night! Don't tell! I can't wait to show them all up!''"
* "''Mario... My family means more to me than anything in the world. I can't be a hero like you, but as a father and husband, I'm doing my best. Good luck to you, Mario. My entire family is cheering for your success!''"
|data-label="Goombario's Tattle" style="font-size:90%"|
* "''This family man ordinarily works at Peach's Castle. He was on his day off when the castle disappeared. Talk about your basic lucky coincidence! Wow! He's a very reliable worker at the castle... but he never does chores around the house.''"

|data-label="Quotes" style="font-size:90%"|
* "''Oh, busy, busy! The room doesn't get tidied up when my darling's at home.''"
* "''Oh, how busy, busy! My sweetheart might have some time off from work, but I never have a day off. It's a lot of work! Aw... Look at my poor dear. I know he's sad that the castle is gone, but grieving forever won't do anything. He should try to find something that brings him joy. If you could, please say something to him, Mario.''"
* "''I used to love the annual cooking contest at the castle, but it looks like we won't have one this year... I was sure this was the year I'd beat Tayce T.!''"
* "''My darling's spirits seem to have improved lately. Maybe he realized there was no sense in staying home and grieving all the time. My darling is a bit timid, but he is such a good-natured person at heart.♡''"
* "''It looks like the Shy Guys won't be pestering the town anymore, will they? I know they're just pranksters, but I still feared for the children while they were loose. But... My sweetie-pie protected the family! And he looked so cute being brave!♡ Oh, sorry! How embarrassing! Don't tell my darling that I said that, all right?''"
* "''You're in my way, sugar! Scoot over! Oh, gracious! Mario? Tee hee... How embarrassing! I'm awfully sorry. I thought you were my darling. That's why I shouted. Even with all that's going on in the world, you can't stop cleaning your house. It sure is tiresome, though...''"
* "''My dumpling's always playing games with the children. When he used to go to the castle every day for work, I would sometimes wish to the Stars that the family could be together more often. I didn't think it would be like this! It's like I have three children instead of two!''"
* "''So, you're finally on your way to save the princess! Hurry to her! But don't be rash or reckless. Her Highness would be worried!''"
|data-label="Goombario's Tattle" style="font-size:90%"|
* "''She's the homemaker here. She's ordinarily very relaxed and easygoing. Since her lazy husband is home, she's working harder than ever right now. The housework piles up every day, but somehow she manages it all with no help. Where does she get the energy?''"
|-
|style="text-align:center"|[[File:PM Toad Kid Green.png]]<br>A green Toad kid in the southwestern house.
|data-label="Quotes" style="font-size:90%"|
* "''My dad works at the castle, so he's not at home usually. But now the castle's gone, so he's at home. When I said I'm glad 'cause Dad's at home, I got scolded. ...What's up with that?''"
* "''When the castle was still here, I used to climb the trees and look off into the distance. But those trees all fell down... Now there's nothing to do.''"
* "''Since the castle is gone, Dad is really bummed, and Mom seems a little frazzled. I'm kind of happy that Dad's at home now, but I wish we could get him to play with us.''"
* "''We've been playing with Dad. He's terrible at our games, so I'm teaching him how to play. You never realize how much work it is to take care of grown-ups.''"
* "''Dad, you are so cool!''"**
* "''When the Shy Guys came, Dad protected us, so we had nothing to worry about. Who knew Dad was so cool? He was like a raging animal!''"
* "''When I grow up, I'm going to be just like my dad. It's not a bad idea to be like you, Mario, but, my dad's cooler... Sorry, Mario!''"
* "''Dad told me about you. You're trying to save Princess Peach and the people in the castle, aren't you? That's pretty cool... You're the second coolest guy after my dad.''"
|data-label="Goombario's Tattle" style="font-size:90%"|
* "''He's one of the Toad kids. He likes his father so much that he always tries to sneak into the castle. He's about the same age as I am. We sometimes play together when I come to Toad Town. I guess he's a pretty good friend of mine.''"

* "''Princess Peach was kidnapped! So I'm going to save her! But...Mom told me I had to be a good boy and stay home. How come?''"
* "''I started going to the Dojo so I can get stronger and save the beautiful Princess Peach. But...my mom tells me I have to behave and stay home. Why is that?''"
* "''I'm not afraid of ghosts! Eee... What if a real ghost heard me and shows up? Oh, no...''"
* "''The Master of the Dojo is really, really strong! Who's stronger, you or The Master? Seriously, who?''"
* "''You gotta tell me, Mario. How can I get stronger? I wanna be super muscular. The Master at the Dojo says: 'Those who desire only strength will always be weak.' Huh? Say what? Whaddaya think that means?''"
* "''Dad says he's more afraid of Mom than of anything else in the whole world. But Mom's such a sweetheart! She's totally kind! You think... Dad's a scaredy-cat?''"
* "''I wished to the Stars that I'd become a strong boy. But then Dad said I should wish for you instead. He told me to wish that you would beat up Bowser. I'm gonna wish really hard.''"
|data-label="Goombario's Tattle" style="font-size:90%"|
* "''He's a Toad kid who wants to be really powerful. He thinks that having power solves everything. His way of thinking is a little bit different from mine. He's a good enough guy, though, when we play together.''"

* "''The building with the spinning roof is Merlon's house. He's weird. He also happens to be as stubborn as a mule. He rarely comes out. As weird as he is, though, his talent is no joke. He can read the stars. He even predicted that you'd come back safe and sound!''"
* "''Oh... Mario! Merlon was looking for you. He lives in that house with the spinning roof. He asked me to tell you to go meet him at his house. I was just about to go look for you, but here you are! It's rare for Merlon to call somebody over to his house... He's a bit eccentric. Even when he has visitors, it's rare for him to come out of the house at all.''"
* "''Koopa Village is to the east of Toad Town. You know that famous explorer by the name of Kolorado? He has a house there. He's probably not there now. I heard that he's in the field exploring Dry Dry Desert.''"
* "''Some guy named Rowf started a Badge Shop in the square over there. I haven't been, but it looks like he's selling rare Badges. You been there yet?''"
* "''I've been hearing good things about the Badges over there in Rowf's Badge Shop. Have you been there recently?''"
* "''Shy... Shy Guy... Shy Guys just stormed the... post office...''"
* "''I tried my best to catch that Shy Guy when he bolted from the post office, but he was way too fast. Maybe I need to work out more on my 'Toadinator.'''"
* "''I heard you got back the letters those Shy Guys stole from the post office. You're so smooth, Mario. You always get the job done!''"
* "''I asked Minh T. to make a bouquet so I could give it to my mother. Minh T.'s the absolute best at growing flowers. She senses flowers' feelings. My mother was so pleased to get pretty flowers that she made me a pie. Yum!''"
* "''Bub-ulbs can speak the same language that we do. They're pretty easy to understand, I guess. But I definitely don't get how Minh T. communicates with other flowers...''"
* "''Mario! Great timing. Somebody was looking for you. He's over at Merlon's house.''"
* "''Mario, do you collect Badges? I've heard that there are Badges for almost everything! I bet adventuring is a whole lot easier if you have lots of Badges, huh?''"

* "''Up on Shooting Star Summit, there are these two siblings named Merluvlee and Merlow. Merluvlee tells fortunes. She's really good at finding Badges or Star Pieces. When you take Star Pieces to Merlow, he'll trade them for Badges. These two could help you, no? You ought to go meet them.''"
* "''If you want to go to Koopa Village, head east on the road in front of the Toad House. There's a fork in the road, so watch the signs and be careful not to get lost.''"
* "''Are you taking a trip to Dry Dry Desert? Take the train. There's a station south of town. After getting to the station at Mt. Rugged, you'll have to hike over the mountain. Dry Dry Desert is just on the other side of the mountain.''"
* "''I heard there are old ruins somewhere in Dry Dry Desert. Some team of researchers is looking for them, excavating in the sand. Must be hot.''"
* "''Have you met the wise Toad? He lives over by the western gate. The big one. That guy seems to know something about everything. He's really popular at parties, what with his knowledge and everything. You'd be surprised.''"
* "''Did you see that? Shy Guys just went into the post office! Wha... What should we do?! You think they're causing trouble in there? Maybe they can still be stopped...if we act quickly. Mario! Can you go check in there? I'd go, but I have a bum leg...''"

There were all sorts of people...uh, that is Koopa Troopas, there. One Koopa loved the radio, I recall...those four rowdy brothers...that giant Kent C.... Oh yes, there was also that world-renowned explorer and archaeologist, Kolorado. If I recall correctly, his wife was always worrying about him. I suppose she wanted him to stay home a bit more. I often wonder how all those Koopas are holding up...''"
* "''Hello, Mario. I heard you hiked over to Dry Dry Desert recently. A long time ago, I went to Dry Dry Desert, too. Sadly, I got lost in the desert. A noble soul by the name of Moustafa saved me. The way the locals referred to him, I assumed at first that he was a fierce, stern person. But once I spoke with him, it became clear to me that he was quite a nice guy. A secret surrounded this Moustafa... I was let in on it. Moustafa is actually... No, I can't tell you! Well, Mario, because it's a secret. That's that.''"
* "''Hello, Mario. I heard you braved Forever Forest recently. I got lost in Forever Forest a long time ago. I wandered around and around in circles for a good while, utterly lost, then at last I came to a mysterious mansion. It was there I met a Boo by the name of Bootler. This Bootler used to travel the world having adventures with a pair of his friends, a Goomba and a Koopa Troopa. We spoke of many things, he and I. He even told me of his undying love for the mistress of the mansion. There was a little girl Boo there then, the granddaughter of the mansion's mistress. She was headstrong and very spoiled. Still, she was cute. I wonder how she's doing now. She must be beautiful.''"
* "''Hello, Mario. Do you happen to know the owner of the Badge Shop that recently opened? Rowf? I met that Rowf in a different town a long, long time ago. Back then, he was selling rare foods, not Badges. I recall that he had a beautiful wife at the time. They worked so hard together to build a business up from nothing in that town. His wife doesn't seem to be here in Toad Town, though. I wonder what happened...''"
* "''Hey, Mario, I heard you went over the sea to Lavalava Island recently. I went to Lavalava Island a long time ago, too. The folks in Yoshi's Village took really good care of me. What a wonderful place it was! Such a mild climate, and some of the tastiest foods! I remember eating picnic lunches on the beach, sea breezes... It was just fantastic. Oh, it's been too long! I must go again sometime.''"
* "''Hello, Mario. I heard you went over to Flower Fields recently. I've never been there myself, but the elder at Koopa Village, the esteemed Koopa Koot, told me once about the time he journeyed to Flower Fields in the days of his youth. According to his tale, he valiantly saved a big tree called Wise Wisterwood. Old Koopa Koot... He's told me a million stories about his travels. He was a famous explorer when he was younger, probably the most famous Koopa in the land. Perhaps it was Koopa Koot's influence that led Kolorado into the adventuring life.''"
* "''Hello, Mario. In all your travels, have you ever been to Star Haven? As far as I know, nobody has ever been there. It's too far off, way beyond the clouds. If I could have one wish, it would be to open a Toad House in Star Haven. Don't you think it would be amazing to live with the stars surrounding you? You could stay for free, of course, whenever you came.''"
