Super Paper Mario Hints Part 2 (Wii)

The newest chapter of the Paper Mario story isn't just out of this world it's out of this dimension. What at first glance appears to be a 2-D sidescroller ripped straight from the pages of the Paper Mario universe soon turns into a 3-D action-adventure that defies all video game logic. Fusing 2-D and 3-D perspectives, not to mention RPG and platformer elements, the game slips back and forth between dimensions.

The action sprawls across eight worlds filled with traps, puzzles, bizarre mysteries and items that often draw themselves out of thin air. Oh, and just because Mario's in the title doesn't mean he's the only star - players also get to play as Peach and Bowser.

Gameplay Hints (part 2):

Pit Of 100 Trials: Rewards
After completing The Pit Of 100 Trials in Flipside (not Flop), you will fight a dragon, Wrecktail. This is a new version of first Boss, with the same attacks and same way to defeat it. You will get a new Pixl, Dashell, who allows you to run at very high speeds.

The following are the rewards that you receive when you finish the Flopside Pit of 100 Trials two times. You get the following cards from the chests that appear after defeating your four clones: Note: This is also a great place to level up.

Mario
Dark Mario
Peach(1)
Dark Peach
Bowser(1)
Dark Bowser
Luigi
Dark Luigi

Complete the Flopside Pit of 100 Trails twice to receive, among
other prizes, an unlimited 3D flip meter (your flip meter never drops).

Pit Of 100 Trials: Defeating Wracktail
When Wracktail is flying around the sky and is about to dive into the ground, switch to the Pixl "Slim" and turn invisible. He cannot do any damage to you as he enters the ground, even though he hits the area where you are standing.

Once you are on his back, switch to Bowser. Use his flames to keep the Wrackles under control when they get overpopulated (which is when they start shooting at you for 10 damage per hit). However, you still need to pick up the Wrackles and throw them at his antenna. Defeating Wracktail will be fast because Bowser's attack is double that of Mario and Peach. When you are getting kicked off of Wracktail, switch to Peach and use her parasol (umbrella) to float and not land on Wracktail's face and take damage. Repeat this until Wracktail is defeated.

Guessing the real Merlee
When you have to choose between the two Merlees, the real one will have a fly going around them from hiding in the toilet.

Free hints
Any time you get stuck, save the game near your current location. Then, take the return pipe back to Flipside and go directly to the fortune teller. Once you have your hint, press Home and reset the game. You will return to your save where you were stuck and the price of the fortuneteller's services will never go up.

Pixls
Get the indicated Pixl to unlock the corresponding special ability.

Barry: Shield yourself from enemy attacks and also counterattack.
Boomer: Blow up objects.
Carrie: Platform that can get you across dangerous areas.
Cudge: Use a hammer.
Dashell: Run fast.
Dottie: Shrink yourself.
Fleep: Flip objects that are stuck in the wrong dimension.
Piccolo: Play special music that disintegrates certain objects.
Slim: Turn sideways and squeeze through very narrow spaces.
Thoreau: Pick up objects then toss them.
Thudley: Shake the ground.
Tippi: Use the your Wiimote sensor to scan objects to learn about them and reveal hidden things.

Mario series reference
Enter Room 2828 in the Castle Of Francis to find action figures and posters from other Mario games.
