==Out of Bounds==
==Graphics==
===Oddly Angled Model===
This glitch must be done after beating [[Petey Piranha|Petea Piranha]]. To execute it, Mario must enter [[Plum Park]], station a barrel raft close enough to a ledge facing north, then get between the raft and the ledge and continually [[hammer]] the raft. If done correctly, Mario will glitch into the raft. When jumping out and walking around, Mario's model will appear at an odd angle, even though the overall physics will remain constant. The glitch ends if the player stops moving.<ref name="awiibo />
 
===Huey's Mood===
In [[Port Prisma]], if Mario enlarges the [[Red Rescue Squad Apprentice Toad]] with the [[Magnifying Glass (Paper Mario: Color Splash)|Magnifying Glass]], Huey briefly smiles at Mario after the Toad is accepted into the [[Rescue Squad]]. If Mario collects the [[Holo-Peach]] in the same room afterwards, Huey continues to smile during the cutscene.
 
==Physics==
===Draggadon Text Storage===
This glitch is accomplished in [[Redpepper Volcano]] using [[Draggadon]] and a dialogue event triggered on a timer.
 
====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''. Retrieved 2 March 2022.</ref>
 
====While Riding Draggadon====
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''. Retrieved 2 March 2022.</ref>
 
===Floating in Dark Bloo Inn===
In [[Dark Bloo Inn]], if Mario speaks to a [[Tea Party Toads|Tea Party Toad]] while standing on a table, he will walk over to the left side of the Toad, floating above the ground at the level of the table. When the conversation with the Tea Party Toad ends, Mario will fall to the ground.
 
===Floating Paint Guy===
Upon reaching the colorless [[Mini Paint Star]] in [[Ruddy Road]] along with the [[Paint Guy]] responsible, Mario must hammer the nearby bush on the right to make it stick out on its left. Mario must then carefully walk up the bush and get to the point where the next cutscene is triggered to make the Paint Guy stand in midair.<ref name="awiibo"/>
 
===Hammer Direction Check Error===
Near the entrance of the level [[Sunset Express]] sits an [[Unfurl Block]] and a Toad atop it. The Toad prevents Mario from trying to hammer the unfurl block until the player heads right to see what is blocking the train from progressing forwards. An interesting quirk about the hammer is if the player hammers in a direction up or down with the {{button|wiiu|stick}} control stick, the game stores Mario's orientation, but if a subsequent hammer swing is performed without moving the stick, the swing defaults to the either directly left or right depending on which is closer. The game fails to account for this quirk, so it becomes possible to activate the block without leaving and coming back.<ref>Zaku! (August 18, 2021).

===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.
 
===Skipping the First Toad===
{{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.
 
===Trainworks Text Storage===
Using the {{conjectural|Trainworks Stairs out of bounds}} while the train is being repaired, it is possible to engage the [[Scaredy Rat]]s while inside the cylinder. If Mario is positioned in a certain part of the cylinder as it bounces up at the start of the battle, it's possible for him to be warped on top of the cylinder afterwards. From here the Toad can be talked to despite no dialog appearing. There is a cutscene that occurs once the cylinder is rolled onto the ramp, and if the Toad is spoken to as it crosses that threshold the textbox will be stored.<ref name="Trainworks"/>
 
==Out of Bounds and Clips==
===Daffodil Peak Yellow Pipe Excavation===
===Daffodil Peak Yellow Pipe Excavation===
At [[Daffodil Peak]], to the right of the platform with the red [[Mini Paint Star]], by continually pressing {{button|wiiu|padup}} and {{button|wiiu|padleft}}, Mario can walk behind the platform. The player will get a [[Game Over]] once Mario reaches the yellow warp pipe.<ref name="awiibo">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0JVovRLleRA</ref>

===Disco Ball Out of Bounds===
In [[the Emerald Circus]] backstage area, pulling the rope will drop down a [[Disco Ball]]. It is possible to wedge Mario between the disco ball and the stairs, clipping out of bounds and resulting in a [[Game Over]].
===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''. Retrieved 2 March 2022.</ref>
===Golden Coliseum Column Clip===
in [[The Golden Coliseum]] there is a room with a short crumbled column next to a wooden wall. If Mario jumps into the gap in collision just right, he'll be clipped through to the other side, bypassing an [[Unfurl Block]] section.<ref>MilsTailsPrower (May 7, 2017).

===Not entering the trapdoor in Cobalt Base===
===Not entering the trapdoor in Cobalt Base===
In [[Cobalt Base]], if the player moves Mario over the trapdoor, talks to [[Huey]] as soon as he enters it, and waits for the falling sound to stop, the screen may not fade to black and not show the loading screen after closing Huey's dialog box. After a few seconds, the player will unexpectedly get a Game Over.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lan8h32T0cQ</ref>
In [[Cobalt Base]], if the player moves Mario over the trapdoor, talks to [[Huey]] as soon as he enters it, and waits for the falling sound to stop, the screen may not fade to black nor show the loading screen. Mario cannot activate the trigger for the next area while talking to Huey, nor will the out of bounds check occur until the dialog is closed. If the player does close the text a [[Game Over]] will happen after a few seconds.<ref>MilstailsPrower (February 15, 2017).

===Redpepper Crater Wall Clip===
In the [[Redpepper Crater]] room with many sliding crystal platforms, if the player goes to the area in the far back-right and jumps towards the wall while the platform slides forwards, Mario can sometimes clip through it.<ref>MilsTailsPrower (January 6, 2017).

===Trainworks Stairs out of bounds===
In [[Toad Trainworks]] it is possible to clip Mario into the ledge at the very top of the stairs. Careful navigation allows Mario into the area underneath where the cylinder rolls, and it is possible to fall out of bounds in the back right area.<ref name="Trainworks">MilsTailsPrower (January 15, 2022).

==Physics==
===Tree Clipping===
===Floating in Dark Bloo Inn===
The corners of the tree canopies in [[Port Prisma]] are slightly buggy, and it is possible for Mario to jump into them and stand inside.
In [[Dark Bloo Inn]], if Mario speaks to a [[Tea Party Toads|Tea Party Toad]] while standing on a table, he will walk over to the left side of the Toad, floating above the ground at the level of the table. When the conversation with the Tea Party Toad ends, Mario will fall to the ground.


===Floating Paint Guy===
===Tree Jump Prologue Skip===
Upon reaching the colorless [[Mini Paint Star]] in [[Ruddy Road]] along with the [[Paint Guy]] responsible, Mario must hammer the nearby bush on the right to make it stick out on its left. Mario must then carefully walk up the bush and get to the point where the next cutscene is triggered to make the Paint Guy stand in midair.<ref name="awiibo"/>
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). [https://youtu.be/LwW5SEYPVu0 prologue tree skip] Originally posted to Modern Paper Mario Speedrunning ''Discord''. Retrieved 2 March 2022.</ref>
===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).

==Graphics==
'''NOTE''': It is also possible to perform this same clip in the parallel world version of the area.
===Oddly Angled Model===
This glitch must be done after beating [[Petey Piranha|Petea Piranha]]. To execute it, Mario must enter [[Plum Park]], station a raft close enough to a ledge facing north, then get between the raft and the ledge and continually [[hammer]] the raft. If done correctly, Mario will glitch into the raft. When jumping out and walking around, Mario's model will appear at an odd angle, even though the overall physics will remain constant.<ref name="awiibo />


===Huey's Mood===
===Weapons Room Clip===
In [[Port Prisma]], if Mario enlarges the [[Red Rescue Squad Apprentice Toad]] with the [[Magnifying Glass (Paper Mario: Color Splash)|Magnifying Glass]], Huey briefly smiles at Mario after the Toad is accepted into the [[Rescue Squad]]. If Mario collects the [[Holo-Peach]] in the same room afterwards, Huey continues to smile during the cutscene.
Again at [[The Golden Coliseum]] in the area where the [[Ice Pick]] and [[Bottle Opener]] [[Thing]]s are stored, Mario is able to clip between one of the spears and the weapon rack, clipping into the wall.<ref>Various People.
