Life Shroom
Life Shroom is simply the best items to get in Paper Mario TTYD, as this item revives either Mario or a party member whenever they are knocked out during a fight.
The item becomes more useful in long boss fights, as you can continue the battle if Mario gets knocked out. Instead of getting a game over screen and restarting the entire fight, Mario will be revived and you can continue the fight from that point.

You will get some use of this item in the later stages of the game where fights may become more difficult, or when going down the Pit of 100 Trials which tend to get more difficult as you go lower.
Essentially, Jelly Ultra also combines Jammin' Jelly and Ultra Shroom, which lets you save inventory space.
