When i first watched the gameplay trailer
for paper mario: color splash, i noticed something
rather important.
in one of the increments of footage i saw
a paint bucket, and not just any type of paint
bucket.
A floating paint bucket.
This was the same format the companions / Pixels
used while in super paper mario for the nintendo
wii.
It is kind of obvious but, I do believe that
one of the companions for this game will be
this mysterious floating paint bucket.
My theory will be going other the other companions
that i believe will be included in Paper mario
color splash.
These are just my ideas and should not be
taken as actual fact.
So let’s begin!
I am assuming that their we be roughly 8 companions.
This is because in the center of the town
that paper mario visits, there is a star shaped
set of paint tanks.
This is possibly for the different areas of
the game, and would make sense for the progression
of the story line.
Each area might have a new color, alongside
a new companion to help harness that power
in some way.
Since the first “companion” we see is
a paint bucket, my theory is based all around
paint and art supplies.
I think that these companions will be used
more like the star spirits from paper mario
64 where you have to fill up your meter to
use them.
This would make perfect sense with the newly
included paint meter.
They might use different combinations in this
meter to be . Each companion will have a different
ability, like healing or damage.
The paint bucket looks like it will be used
in the overworld, kind of like Tippi from
super paper mario, where it can tell paper
mario facts about enemies or suggest what
to do next in the overworld.
I might be wrong on this aspect, but i'm going
with my gut and assuming its the first companion
paper mario gets.
the first companion idea I have is a paint
brush.
This companion would be about to deal damage
to a singular enemy in battle, and would also
use a singular paint color such as red or
yellow.
This companion would be very useful in boss
battles where you have to hit the boss with
a specific color.
This ability would resemble Watt and how he
would shock an enemy with singular damage.
The next companion idea I have is a spray
can.
With this spraycan companion, Paper mario
will be able to attack multiple enemies in
battle with a single color source.
The spray can would be useful in situations
where paper mario is in a battle with multiple
enemies.
This reminds me of the star spirit ability
where you can shoot stars at enemies and they
take 7 damage apiece.
most of the time the entire group dies early
on in the game.
If my assumption of the paint bucket was wrong,
the bucket might replace the spray can in
terms of what ability the companion would
have.
The third Companion I had in mind would be
the paint palette.
With this neat little companion, paper mario
could mix colors together to get results.
I believe this companion would be used in
the over world to solve puzzles, and to deal
damage to enemies that are weak to certain
colors.
I might be looking too much into the color
aspect but i might be a lot like pokemon how
certain types can be more effective than others.
I would not be surprised at all if the paper
mario team actually did this with the battle
system.
This would make the strategy aspect be way
more intuitive than ever before.
Well guys that was just some of the ideas
that i had for the next companions for paper
mario: color splash.
