What are the Tadpole Pond Frog Sage’s Suite 18 Notes in Super Mario RPG?

While visiting Tadpole Pond in Super Mario RPG, you will meet a composer named Toadofsky. The musician will ask you to play him a beautiful composition for a reward. While the Toad artist is willing to give you a quick lesson, you are left to figure out the correct notes for the musical number.

The Tadpole Pond Frog Sage’s Suite 18 Notes in Super Mario RPG are 6, 5, 1, 2, 3, 2, 3, 2. The way the puzzle works is the pond is broken up into six lines of sheet music, and the tadpoles are the musical notes that swim up and down it. You must jump on each tadpole to make their note stop at the correct location. So you should start by jumping at the sixth spot, then the fifth, and so on.
