-Here I will be discussing the information about Merlow and his Star Piece
 for badge exchange. I will highlite the badge points needed to use each
 badge,the star pieces needed to buy each badge as well as the effects of
 the badge. Sorry for overusing the word badge a lot but I don't know how
 else to word it. Because this guide will be focussing on Merlow's badge
 exhange, this guide won't be very long. In fact it may be shorter than you
 think. It should be about 2-4 maybe 5 pages tops.
