About This Guide
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hidden throughout many of the levels in Paper Mario: Sticker Star are sticker
application boxes that allow you to upgrade a sticker. By paperizing in
certain areas, these applications sites reveal themselves. This guide details
where these upgrade boxes can be found, and what results different stickers
can produce.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How To Upgrade
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The upgrade boxes appear as the red dotted outline of a square.
Paperize near an appropriae location. Apply a small sized sticker to the
upgrade square. Medium and Large size stickers will not fit into the square,
and therefore cannot be upgraded. Hit the resulting item block to reap your
reward. It is possible to get either one or three stickers with each
application.
The upgrade blocks will reset every time the level is exited, much like
stickers, so they can be used repeatedly to upgrade your stickers. The easiest
place to repeatedly upgrade your stickers is W1.1, since the two blocks are
relatively close to each other and the entrance.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Where To Upgrade
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The most common place to find such a box is the air above a lone pink flower
or a circle of pink flowers, although they can appear elsewhere. Many of these
pink flowers are hidden at first, appearing as cardboard circles on the
ground. Hitting the ground with the Hammer reveals these hidden flowers.
