'''The Emerald Circus''' is a location found in ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]''. The path leading here is unlocked after getting the [[Mini Paint Star|Green Mini Paint Star]] from [[Mossrock Theater]], and will color in [[Luigi]] and his kart outside the map,  after getting the [[Big Paint Star|Green Big Paint Star]] here. [[Lemmy Koopa]] is fought on top of the Big Top Tent, once the show is over. The [[Battle_Card_(Paper_Mario:_Color_Splash)#Disco Ball|Disco Ball Thing]] is found here.

==Layout==
Outside of the circus is a [[Shy Guy]] selling tickets. However, Mario cannot enter the circus as they only perform in front of full crowds. Mario can go backstage to find the red [[Rescue Squad]] leader, crumpled up after being eaten by a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]. Additionally, Mario can attempt to free the Yoshis, although one eats him and spits him out, which angers Huey. The Rescue Squad leader goes to wait in line for the circus, and Mario must visit [[Port Prisma]] to send the rest of the Rescue Squad to the circus. With all 49 members, the circus opens up.

Inside the circus, Lemmy is introduced as an illusionist. He makes a green Shy Guy disappear, only to reappear in the audience. Next, Lemmy makes the green [[Big Paint Star]] vanish, not showing where it is. He leaves, and an intermission is declared, to the outrage of the audience. Huey encourages Mario to look for the Big Paint Star, and backstage, the Yoshis have escaped. [[Yoshi]] talks to Mario, thanking him for [[It|letting him escape]] from the [[Dark Bloo Inn]] as well as informing him about setting his friends free from the cage. Going past the cage, Mario can re-enter the circus in a back room, and pulling a rope causes the Disco Ball Thing to fall down.

Mario and Huey go on stage, and Huey confesses that he has stage fright. He attempts an impression of a tin can, but gets booed by the audience. Mario performs a trick based on ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' where he grows from [[Super Mushroom]]s thrown at him, much to Huey's frustration. Suddenly, a Shy Guy announces that Mario will be fighting enemies, starting with the [[Unicycle Shy Guys]]. Yoshis may appear on stage and attack Mario, ending his turn. Next, two [[Wild Dino Rhino]]s and an [[Animal Trainer Shy Guy]] appear. After they are defeated, a [[Buzzy Beetle Tower]] is formed. Finally, [[Trampoline Shy Guy]]s enter the stage. Once they are defeated, the circus performance ends, with the trampoline remaining. If Mario and Huey jump on it, they are brought to the top of the tent, where Lemmy and the Big Paint Star are hiding.

In battle, Lemmy summons [[Juggler Bro]]s., [[Circus Bro]]s., and [[Ptooie]]s. After he has taken enough damage, he gets out his [[magical ball|Wonder Ball]] and starts spinning on it. Mario must use the Disco Ball Thing and the Ice Pick Thing in succession to pop the Wonder Ball. When the fight ends, Lemmy admits defeat. Collecting the green Big Paint Star results in [[Luigi]]'s [[kart]] being repainted.
