====While off of Draggadon====
====While off of Draggadon====
Enter the level, lure the Draggadon using the [[Magma Burger]], then head directly towards the upper right area and dismount. If timed correctly, Mario will dismount and the snifits will initiate dialog at the same time. This grants the player movement, where loading zones do not function and the lava can be safely walked on. This trick makes it possible to obtain the purple [[Mini Paint Star]] without feeding the Draggadon. Closing the text box will immediately end the glitch. Hammering the [[Lava Bubble]] near the front of the room crashes the game.<ref>G1itch35 (February 21, 2017). [https://youtu.be/kmiCkvBGTk4 the power of words] ''YouTube''.

Similarly if the player is at the top right area, and mounts the Draggadon after a specific amount of time passes from closing the dialog, Mario will take out his fishing rod and the text will activate at the same time, permitting movement while it is up. Riding on Draggadon with text storage has less useable quirks due to the limited movement options.<ref>Zaku! (September 2, 2021). [https://youtu.be/3HPmmOSGHEM Text Storage on Draggadon] ''YouTube''.

===Museum Text Storage===
===Museum Text Storage===
Inside the [[Prisma Museum]] there is a check for Mario if he swings his paint hammer, which will bring up a textbox and disable the hammer. If the player interacts with a prompt and presses the {{button|wiiu|x}} button at around the same time, it is possible to store the text from the Toad warning Mario not to use the paint hammer. The effects vary depending on the room, which prompt is used and the timing, and some combinations cause the game to softlock. Unlike the {{conjectural|Draggadon Text Storage}} loading zones can be used in this state.

{{damage|2}}
{{damage|2}}
In [[Port Prisma]] after the tutorial fight, Huey restricts Mario to a small area to teach him about painting objects, using the recently drained Toad as an example. If instead the player goes near the barrel, facing backwards and jumping while moving up-right {{button|wiiu|stick}} in the air, it is possible to bypass these restrictions. From here the player can head left to skip both the painting tutorial and a cutscene at the fountain in the next room.<ref>Zaku! (August 14, 2021).

This glitch comes with interesting restrictions. With exception to certain areas with specialized [[Huey]] hint behavior, pressing up {{button|wiiu|padup}} will pause movement for a moment and the U.I. will move off screen and briefly return, without activating the hint. Attempting to enter the door leading to [[Prisma Museum]] and then returning to the tutorial area will crash the game. Similarly painting the blue Toad who owns the [[Prisma Cardware]] shop will cause a crash.

===Flower Pot Clipping===
===Flower Pot Clipping===
Flower pots are interactable details found in various levels including [[Plum Park]]. When hammered they stay squished for a few seconds before rising back up. Before it unsquishes if Mario is positioned so he's on the edge of the flower pot and runs towards a wall close to the pot, it is possible for the player to be clipped through the wall. This also allows Mario to fall out of bounds and [[Game Over]].<ref>MilsTailsPrower (February 9, 2017). [https://youtu.be/fGK8nj9asLo Wall Clip Using a Flower Pot] ''YouTube''.

===Tree Jump Prologue Skip===
===Tree Jump Prologue Skip===
With {{conjectural|Tree Clipping}} it is possible to use the tree in the east room of [[Port Prisma]] to jump up to a higher ledge during prologue and repaint the water early. This skips the cutscene in the fountain, the whole west room and the goomba fight in it, walking along the higher area of the center room, and the fight with a shy guy just above the east area.<ref>Glitchy// (February 8, 2022).

===Vortex Island House Skip===
===Vortex Island House Skip===
At [[Vortex Island]], there is a bucket lying next to a fence near a purple Toad house. With a setup it is possible to clip into the rope hanging from the fence, and clip into the other side without ever entering the house.<ref>MilsTailsPrower (July 19, 2021).
