TheSpike Helmet is an item inPaper Mario: Sticker Star andPaper Mario: Color Splash.

History[edit]

Paper Mario: Sticker Star[edit]

“Protects against and counters attacks from above with the helmet's spike.”

—In-game description,Paper Mario: Sticker Star

Spike Helmets first appear asstickers inPaper Mario: Sticker Star. They are dropped bySpinies, and are found in levels such asGoomba Fortress andDrybake Desert. They can be purchased inDecalburg for 8 coins. When used in battle, Mario wears the helmet and ducks down, dealing damage to enemies that attack him from above. If A Button is pressed, Mario thrusts upwards, dealing more damage. TheShiny Spike Helmet andFlashy Spike Helmet are upgraded versions of the Spike Helmet. It can be placed as #64 in theSticker Museum.

If used during theBig Cheep Cheep boss fight after using theFishhook, the Big Cheep Cheep will be instantly defeated upon attempting to jump onto Mario, at the cost of 30HP of damage to Mario. This amount will increase each time it increases its size.

Paper Mario: Color Splash[edit]

The Spike Helmet appears as aBattle Card inPaper Mario: Color Splash. It is first obtainable in theIndigo Underground, and can be bought atPrisma Cardware for 80 coins. It retains itsAction Command fromPaper Mario: Sticker Star. In this game, the Spike Helmet can only be found pre-painted.
