Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga/Side Quests

As you play through the game, you will get the opportunity to perform side quests and get rare items.

Beanstones
After you save Queen Bean by bringing her the Chuckhola Reserve (in a rather… gross way) you'll notice that Beanbean Castle Town has been restored. Aye, thar be some explorin' ta be done, matey! Somewhere in town is an old man who needs you to help him find proof of the legendary Soybean civilization, who are said to have lived on these very grounds… accept to help him, of course, and he'll tell you to find 10 Beanstones, and he notes that the ancient Soybeans were, in fact quite small…

So what do you do? Get Luigi to grab his hammer and give his pal Mario a good old smack on the head. Now HE's quite small too! Now take a walk around the town. When you see an exclamation mark above Mario's head (!) then STOP. Now switch Mario and Luigi, dunk Luigi into the ground, and let him come out with (hopefully) a sparkling Beanstone! Well done! If you don't get the beanstone, look more carefully with small Mario at the exclamation mark, there are two different sizes and you want to dig where the big one is. Now rinse and repeat this process. There are 10 Beanstones in town, which makes five in each screen (you DID notice that the town has two screens… did you). I currently don't have the exact locations, but they're not really hard to find, just remember to walk a lot as little Mario.

So you say you've found 'em all? Well done! Bring the stones to the old man and he'll reward you with the Bros. Rock! A neat little badge indeed, it raises both Power and Bros. Points of one character by 20! Equip it right away, and wear it with pride, young grasshopper.

Beanlets
At the same time as the Beanstones quest, there's also a youngster in town who lost his little Beanlets. Accept to help him (you're so generous!) and set out to explore the town… again. The Beanlets are small and with round and green heads, so not really hard to find, except for one little sneaky who's hiding in the utmost northwest corner of the town, behind a house.. you might see his head sticking out if you look carefully. The Beanlets also like roofs a lot, so you won't have much trouble finding them all. There are five in total; bring them all back to the guy and he'll reward you with a rare GOLDEN MUSHROOM. This dandy little item will restore ALL the HP and BP of one character! Be sure to use it only in an emergency.

Getting the Wool Trousers
To get the wool trousers, you need 10 diamonds located underground.

Secret Scrolls 1 and 2
When you have the Super and Ultra hammers in the Hammerhead Bros. house go to the bottom right corner there be 2 rocks and 2 caves in each is a Thowmp. The first wants 200 coins and the second wants 500. Save with at least 700 coins then play their game. One rock has coins, one has nothing, and one has a scroll.
