In Paper Mario, the Power Bounce badge's maximum number of bounces is arbitrarily capped against bosses, making Mario end the attack even with perfect inputs. Below are ways to determine if the player should feel bad about the missed input or if it was the game's fault.

In Paper Mario, the Power Bounce badge's maximum number of hits is arbitrarily capped when fighting various enemies, particularly bosses.
This means that even if you perform the input perfectly, Mario will'simply stop the attack all by himself at some point, making it look like it was your fault.
Here is how to tell if your attack was capped by the game or if you missed an input:
If you missed an input, the A button will remain on screen for a fraction of a second after the hit. In addition, Mario will jump off the enemy in a steep arc, landing close to the enemy.
If you were capped, the A button will disappear on the frame Mario deals the final hit, and he will jump off in a larger arc, landing further away. If you see these signs, rest easy: it was not your fault.

On Tuesday, September 15 at about 12pm, a bat was found on the sidewalk on Hennepin Ave between N. Washington Ave and N 3°St.
The bat died and was sent for rabies testing. This bat tested positive for
rabies.
A woman was seen crouching by the bat and putting it into a bag. She was described as a 25-to-30-year-old white woman, about 5'5", with curly brown hair and a curly-haired golden retriever-like dog. If this was you, please call 911 and ask to be connected to Animal Care & Control.
Bites from bats are tiny, may be painless, and may not leave a mark. An person who had physical contact or touched this bat should talk with health care provider this weekend for assessment. During the week, Minnesota Department of Health can also provide rabies assessments at 651-201-5414.
If vou did not touch or have any contact with the bat, you have no risk of rabies and do not need shots.
