Flower Points (FP) in Super Mario RPG Remake: What is it and how to increase it?

Flower Points or FP is one of the core resources in Super Mario RPG Remake. It is used when investing in an ability for your characters, and the more FP that you have in the game, the more abilities your party will be able to use before they need their FP bar topped up again.

FP management becomes crucial in the remake, as it’s a limited resource, and overusing the abilities of your companions will deplete their Flower Points and make them unable to use abilities when they're required.

To make progression a bit easier, the game allows you to increase the max FP of your characters. However, some players are a bit confused as to how they can go about doing so.

Today’s Super Mario RPG guide will go over everything you need to know about Flower Points (FP) in the remake and how you can go about increasing it.

How do Flower Points (FP) work in Super Mario RPG Remake?

In layman's terms, FP is the mana bar that each character possesses in the game, and they use it to perform Special Moves. Each of your companions unlock new Special Moves as they level up. These abilities are incredibly powerful, and when used correctly, will let you breeze through some of the hardest content in the game.

However, using abilities will drain FP, and as the entire party shares just one pool of Flower Points, mana management gets significantly harder in the later stages of the game.
