Shine Sprites are the main collectible item in Super Mario Sunshine. They are the source of bright sunlight on Isle Delfino. When Shadow Mario polluted the Shine Monument with a black goop substance, the Shine Sprites fled, which resulted in Delfino Plaza, the island's de-facto capital, being covered in a thin layer of darkness. Mario has to collect Shine Sprites along the way, and as he does, brightness gradually returns to the area. There are a total of 120 Shine Sprites in the game, and they are the equivalent to the Power Stars in Super Mario 64.
