Status Effects

There is an x with a number above Mario or his partner when he or she is inflicted with a status effect. This number indicates how many rounds that effect will last.
You can cure negative status effects with a Tasty Tonic, Fresh Juice, Sweet Treat or Sweet Feast.
I have only listed ways Mario and his partners can cause a status effect, not the enemies that may employ the status effect.
The negative effects are listed directly below. Click here for the positive effects.
