A Mystery Box is an item found in Paper Mario, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, and Super Paper Mario.
History[edit]
Paper Mario series[edit]
Paper Mario[edit]
The first appearance of the Mystery Box in Paper Mario goes under the name Mystery? When used in battle, a roulette will appear, containing the following items, that will be used right after the roulette stops on an item:
- Mushroom
- Super Shroom
- Fire Flower
- Stone Cap
- Dizzy Dial
- Thunder Rage
- A Pebble that hurts Mario with 1 HP
Mysteries? can also be used for cooking, yielding a Mistake half the time, and a randomly selected one of twenty-three recipes otherwise.
Throughout the game, Mysteries? can be found in the following locations:
- In a hidden block in the north of the Shy Guy Playground in the blue area of Shy Guy's Toy Box.
- In a hidden block on the beach of Lavalava Island.
- On a platform in the third lava/moving platform area in Bowser's Castle.
- On sale for 1 coin each at Boo's Shop.
- On sale for 5 coins each at the Storehouse.
- Dropped by enemies such as Groove Guys and Duplighosts.
Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door[edit]
In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Mystery is sold for three coins at Pungent's Great Tree Shop and the Sales Stall. One Mystery can also be found in a bush in near the bridge in Petal Meadows.
When used in battle, a Mystery has the effect of one of the following items:

- Volt Mushroom
- Slow Mushroom
- Gradual Syrup
- Repel Cape

If it is cooked by itself or with any other item, it makes a Mistake half the time, and otherwise a random one of twenty items, mostly cooking recipes.

The Mystery Box can be bought in Flipside Arcade for five Flipside Tokens, at the Downtown of Crag for three coins, or carried by a Lakitu. Similar to Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, a random item will appear which can be any item from a Catch Card to a Thunder Rage.
