Star Color Pens (スターカラーペン?) are the main collectable items that appear in Star☆Twinkle Pretty Cure. They are used to transform and perform their attacks.
Uses[]
When inserted into the Star Color Pendant, a Transformation Star Color Pen (変身スターカラーペン?) can be used by the Pretty Cure to transform and perform their attacks. In episode 7, it is shown that they can function like actual pens, as Hikaru uses hers to draw a design for Lala's rocket.
There are also 12 different pens known as the Princess Star Color Pens (プリンセススターカラーペン?). Each one represents a Star Princess of the 12 zodiac signs. The Princess Star Color Pens can be inserted into the Star Color Pendant and used by Cure Star, Cure Milky, Cure Soleil, and Cure Selene to upgrade their attacks. They can also be inserted into the Rainbow Perfume and used by Cure Cosmo to perform her Rainbow Splash attack. When inserted into the Twinkle Book, they can be used to revive a Star Princess or summon foods, drinks, and other items for Fuwa.
In episode 31, after the 12 Princess Star Color Pens were gathered, they all flew up into the sky and their powers combined to form the Shiny Twinkle Pen, which then inserted itself into the Twinkle Book. After it did so, Fuwa suddenly transformed into a unicorn. In the next episode, the pen appeared once again after the Cures and Fuwa announced their desire to protect each other from Garuouga's attack. This, in turn, allows them to perform the attack Star Twinkle Imagination by inserting the pen into a golden ball that Fuwa held and changing the Cures' forms in the process.
In episode 6, Aiwarn possesses a Princess Star Color Pen colored by darkness, which she refers to as a Dark Pen (ダークペン?). The Dark Pens allow her to summon a Nottoriga by using someone's imagination. They revert back to their original state once they are obtained by the Pretty Cure.
Appearance[]
All Transformation Star Color Pens have the same shape, but their colors differ according to which Cure uses it to transform. A clear feather is attached to the top and filled with pink, green, yellow, purple, and blue stars (one of each color). Below this feather is a star-shaped gem in the same color as the pen, and a white pair of wings.
The 12 Princess Star Color Pens are very similar in design, but the feather is replaced by a star featuring an image of its associated Star Princess. Below this star is a heart-shaped gem in the same color as the pen, and a white pair of wings.
When a Princess Star Color Pen is possessed by Aiwarn and turned into a Dark Pen, the pen darkens and the image of the Star Princess is removed.
The Shiny Twinkle Pen is also classified as a Princess Star Color Pen. It contains the power of all 12 Star Princesses, and depicts the Star Palace inside of a large star. Below the star is a gold star-shaped gem without wings.

Trivia[]
- Leo, Capricorn, Aries, and Taurus are the only Princess Star Color Pens that have been corrupted thus far.
- For Selene's Selene Arrow and its variations, she uses her Transformation Star Color Pen to draw the arrow.
- Each Cure has used one particular Star Color Pen the most for each of their signature attacks:
- Cure Star and Cure Cosmo both used the Taurus Star Color Pen the most to perform Star Punch and Rainbow Splash respectively.
- Cure Milky used the Gemini Star Color Pen the most to perform Milky Shock.
- Cure Soleil used the Scorpio Star Color Pen the the most to perform Soleil Shoot.
- Cure Selene used the Sagittarius Star Color Pen the most times to perform Selene Arrow.
- According to Producer Yanagawa Akari, the reason why there isn't a Pretty Cure for all 12 constellations is because it would be difficult to portray character growth for each one. That's why the initial four Pretty Cure instead get three Princess Star Color Pens, with each girl representing a set of consecutive constellations that roughly correspond to a season apiece.
- Cure Star has the Pisces, Aries, and Taurus pens, which correspond to the time around Spring.
- Cure Milky has the Gemini, Cancer, and Leo pens, which correspond to the time around Summer.
- Cure Soleil has the Virgo, Libra, and Scorpio pens, which correspond to the time around Autumn.
- Cure Selene has the Sagittarius, Capricorn, and Aquarius pens, which correspond to the time around Winter.[1]
