Double Pain is abadge inPaper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and itsremake. When it is worn, all damage dealt toMario, whether through enemies or items, is doubled, with no positive effects added whatsoever. This applies to the damage that Mario would have normally received without Double Pain, as affected byguarding and badges that increase hisdefense. It does not affect Mario'spartners.

Only one copy of Double Pain is obtainable in the game (despite the remake's badge description saying more than one is obtainable). However, unique behavior was implemented for wearing multiple copies at once. The amount of damage taken is multiplied by the number of Double Pain badges worn plus one^[1]—in other words, each badge increments the damage multiplier—so two copies triple the damage taken.

Double Pain also multiplies the damage incurred by aPoison MushroomBingo!. In the GameCube release, where this Bingo! halves Mario'sHeart Points, this interaction always causes an instant KO. In the remake, due to the Bingo! damage being reduced to a third, an additional Double Pain is needed to guarantee such an outcome.
