Quote from LadyKrile:
When Mario is level 27, he won't gain any Star Points from any battles (even though Dry Bones give 2SP at level 26), and his Star Points are set to 0, even if the previous battle gave more SP than necessary to level up.
Whether Mario's max level is required or not, don't forget partner ranks.
By the way, are there a limited number of badges in the original Paper Mario? (Limited meaning there are no badges that you can get over and over) If not, one of each type should be enough.
By the way, Electro Blooper and Super Blooper are optional, so add them to the list of optional bosses. I think you have to fight them anyway for some of the Super Blocks and badges.
Also, I think each of the items that you recover from Shy Guys gives you a Star Piece if you aren't required to get it to finish the chapter, so the Shy Guy items are not optional.

How can you complete dry dry ruins without quick change?
