MrCheeze | Paper Mario - Sun tower rock skip (Parakarry version) @MrCheeze | Uploaded August 2022 | Updated October 2024, 3 days ago.
This is already possible without any items/partners ( youtube.com/watch?v=lXa9LFyCdgA ), and it's unclear whether the Parakarry version can be made any easier than the original - it requires moving to a precise position as the camera is still in the middle of rotating from Mario entering the cubbyhole.
Still, this is interesting if nothing else for our theoretical understanding of Parakarry clips. It seems like that the best-case scenario for clipping with him is for there to be a corner that's aligned along the X and Z axes, but for the camera to be angled (so that parakarry moves diagonally). This situation can happen at the sun tower, and it's also the principle behind the following:
- Clipping into the corner of the southern toad town shop (toy train / toybox early): youtube.com/watch?v=JJtoYASHwq4
- Deep focus outside Bowser's castle early: youtube.com/watch?v=CqJa3GzUTMM
- Repel Gel in the prologue stone block: youtube.com/watch?v=6SSP3qZwvQc (actually, the corner is not quite along the X/Z axis for this one)
