'''Shiny''' is a variation of [[Sticker (Paper Mario: Sticker Star)|stickers]] and enemies found in ''Paper Mario: Sticker Star''. It is possible to tell if a sticker found in the overworld is shiny if there is a slight checkered pattern on it (this is most noticeable with the Shiny Jump sticker) and it sparkles every few seconds, while shiny enemies sparkle all the time and have a noticeable sheen. Shiny stickers in the Album can be identified by their shimmering silver background. Shiny enemies and stickers are stronger than normal stickers and enemies.

*Shiny enemies in [[Paper Mario: Sticker Star bestiary|''Paper Mario: Sticker Star'']] and [[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam bestiary|''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam'']].
*Shiny variants of the [[List_of_Paper_Mario:_The_Origami_King_weapons|Boots and Hammers]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]].


Shiny enemies are stronger, attack faster, and take half the damage they should take from stickers (except [[Sticker (Paper Mario: Sticker Star)#Things|Things]]). Shiny enemies include:

*[[Shiny Goomba]]
*[[Shiny Paragoomba]]
*[[Shiny-Cone Goomba]]
*[[Shiny Koopa Troopa]]
*[[Shiny Paratroopa]]
*[[Shiny Buzzy Beetle]]
*[[Shiny Bob-omb]]
 
All stickers except for the Clone Jump, Infinijump, Burnhammer, Chillhammer, Baahammer, [[Poison Mushroom]], [[Secret Door]] and stickers dropped by specific enemies (Barrels, Throwing Stars etc.) have a Shiny variation. In addition, there is a stronger, rarer sticker variation known as [[Flashy]] stickers.
 
In ''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam'', prior to when the Bros. visit [[Twinsy Tropics]], some Paper enemies occasionally appear shiny in battle, but there is a rare chance this happens. The more the player clears Expert Challenges, the more common the chances are for the paper enemies to appear shiny. Equipping the [[Shiny Ring]] increases the chances as well. Shiny Paper enemies are stronger than their regular Paper versions and have higher levels than average. Non-copy enemies' HP are increased by 40%, copy enemies' HP are increased by 20%, their POW, DEF, and SPEED are increased by 50%. They also have a high chance of dropping rare items, like [[Battle Card (Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam)|amiibo Cards]]. The player earns three times the EXP and four times the coin drop amounts from Shiny Paper enemies upon defeat. [[Shiny RoboBowser]], the final boss of ''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam'', dons this trait as well.
 
While stickers do not return in ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'', Mario can still find and purchase shiny variants of his [[Boots]] and [[Hammer]] attacks, which can be equipped as replacements for his permanent default moves. These variants do not disappear after a single turn, unlike stickers, but they do break after a while. Shiny Hurlhammers, Iron Boots, [[Mushroom]]s, [[Fire Flower|Fire]] and [[Ice Flower]]s, and [[Tail]]s also return.

*Rarely, a red [[Koopa Troopa]] may drop a Shiny Shell sticker.
*Nearly every sticker in all of [[World 4 (Paper Mario: Sticker Star)|World 4]] (including the ones dropped by enemies) are either Shiny or Flashy.
*''Paper Mario: Sticker Star''{{'}}s Prima Guide mentions a Shiny Dry Bones, although this enemy is not seen anywhere in the game. Shiny variants of [[Paper Dry Bones]] were later seen in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'' in-game. Also in the Prima Guide, it mentions Shiny versions of the [[2-Fold Goomba]], although it doesn't appear anywhere.
