Zap Tap is acquired by trading Merlow 10-Star Pieces at Shooting Star Summit in Paper Mario. It is acquired at level 30 of the Pit of 100 Trials in the Rogueport Sewers in Paper Mario The Thousand-Year Door. Wearing it causes 1 damage to enemies who directly touch/attack Mario in battle.

In some cases, it can prevent an attack altogether. For example, wearing the Zap Tap Badge repels all Fuzzy attacks, and makes it impossible for them to damage Mario. Equipping Zap Tap uses 4 BP In Paper Mario and 3 BP in Paper Mario The Thousand-Year Door.

Trivia

• In Paper Mario when Mario uses the Zap Tap, Mario is flashing. In Paper Mario The Thousand-Year Door, lightning bolts surround Mario.
• In Paper Mario, Zap Tap is extremely useful in fighting the Super Blooper and Electro Blooper and when on Lavalava Island outside the volcano. It allows Mario to jump on the Electro Blooper when he's charged up. It also prevents the Baby Blooper from sucking away HP.
