Sleepy Sheep is anitem in thePaper Mario series. When used, many sheep run across the screen, causing mostenemies tofall into a deep slumber, in which they cannot perform any moves until they awaken. Some enemies have a higher resistance to sleep than others — so it is never guaranteed that this item will affect all enemies in a battle.Bosses have a very high resistance to sleep and many other status conditions.
ForKoopa Koot's second favor, he asks Mario to get him a Sleepy Sheep so that he can sleep better.
