'''Spiny Flip''' is one of [[Lakilester]]'s attacks in the game ''[[Paper Mario]]''. The effect is that he throws a [[Spiny Egg]] at one enemy. All the player has to do is align the cursor with the target. If Lakilester fails, the attack does not hurt the enemy. Spiny Flip is an initial attack and costs no [[Flower Point]]s, like [[Mario]]'s jump. The player can also press {{button|n64|A}} to release it earlier. When successfully executed it inflicts three points of damage to an enemy, four points when Lakilester is Super-Ranked, and five when he is Ultra-Ranked. Spiny Flip is the only initial attack from a partner in the game that does not involve contacting the enemy in any way.
