In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', the move travels a slightly better vertical distance and no longer causes him to drop momentum at the move's apex, compensating for the nerf to Cape's stalling effect, and is often used for a combo finisher after several [[up aerial]]s. The move's hitboxes are identical to its ''Brawl'' counterpart however, the move greatly benefits from the universal changes to ''Smash 4'', mainly the removal of [[edgehog]]ging and the introduction of [[rage]]. The former (along with its increased distance) makes it a much better recovery move while the latter can potentially allow the move to KO as low as 0% near the upper blastzone if Mario has enough rage.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', there is a 30% chance that [[Cappy]] from ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Odyssey}}'' might show his eyes when Mario uses this move, with the coin sound effect altered, and the coins replaced with regional coins from New Donk City should this occur; this is purely aesthetic, and has no effect on the move's properties. The linking hits deal less damage (1% → 0.6%) and the final hit deals less base knockback, hindering the move's damage-racking (up to 11.0% total) and vertical KOing ability, while the move sweet spots the ledge three frames later, worsening its utility as a recovery move. The changes to rage also removed the looping hits' ability to KO at incredibly early percents. However, the linking hits now use weight-independent knockback and are impossible to SDI, making the move connect even more reliably, and several of them (specifically the second to fourth hits of the entire move) have a larger gap between each other, increasing the move's total hitbox duration. In addition, the move now travels high enough to reach the top platform of Dream Land for the first time since ''Smash 64'' (though this is brought about by a change to Dream Land rather than one to the move itself).

[[File:Sjpwalljump.gif|thumb|Mario walljumping after his up special]]
In ''Melee'', if Mario is right next to a wall, the Super Jump Punch can be canceled into a [[wall jump]] by tapping the opposite direction Mario is facing immediately after Mario begins to turn around after reaching the apex of his jump. This technique can be rather useful if Mario happens to be knocked very low while next to the wall on stages such as [[Yoshi's Story]] (such as when recovering from a [[meteor smash]]). It isn't easy to utilize however, due to requiring Mario to be right next to the wall before using the move. It also doesn't work at all on certain walls.

[[File:upbcancelsmall.gif|thumb|Dr. Mario canceling his up special]]
In ''Melee'', Dr. Mario can cancel his Super Jump Punch. To perform this, a player must have Dr. Mario use his Super Jump Punch and then during the first four frames, quickly move the [[control stick]] in the opposite direction. Alternatively, the player can use Super Jump Punch such that Dr. Mario would jump backward, and then press the control stick downward during the first few frames of the animation. This technique can be used for combos (similar to {{SSBM|Fox}}'s [[Reflector]]) or to shield cancel and punish the opponent for [[approach]]ing or for trying to break the player's [[shield]]; however, its [[set knockback]] means that it cannot [[KO]] opponents.

The technique is still possible in ''Smash 4'', but it requires the player to be under the effects of [[Witch Time]] or a [[timer]].

Line 101: Line 100:
The Super Jump Punch is based on the simplest technique used by the Mario Bros. — the {{s|mariowiki|jump}}. In the original ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' and many games afterward, Mario and Luigi jump to cross gaps, stomp on enemies (such as [[Koopa Troopa]]s and [[Goomba]]s), and break [[Brick Block|bricks]] or hit [[? Block|block]]s to reveal {{s|mariowiki|coin}}s or power-ups (such as [[Super Mushroom]]s and [[Fire Flower]]s).

Block|block]]s to reveal {{s|mariowiki|coin}}s or power-ups (such as [[Super Mushroom]]s and [[Fire Flower]]s).


The Super Jump Punch is based on Mario and Luigi's abilities to reveal [[mariowiki:Coin Block|multiple coins from certain blocks]] and defeat enemies standing on blocks from below by jumping due to holding their fists upward (the latter of which dates back to ''Mario Bros.''); these coins are seen when Mario, Luigi (when sourspotted only), and Dr. Mario (in ''Melee'' only) use the attack on a foe. Coins are the currency of the {{b|Mushroom Kingdom|location}} in the [[Mario (universe)|''Mario'' series]]. The coins that appear in the first three games borrow their design from ''{{s|supermariowiki|Super Mario 64}}'', but from ''Super Smash Bros. 4'' onward their design was updated to resemble the {{s|mariowiki|Star Coins}} from the ''[[mariowiki:New Super Mario Bros.|New Super Mario Bros.]]'' series of games. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', coins produced by Mario can randomly appear as {{s|supermariowiki|regional coins}} found in the {{s|supermariowiki|Metro Kingdom}} from ''{{s|supermariowiki|Super Mario Odyssey}}''. The sound effect played at the beginning of the move (by all three users) is based on the sound effect played when Mario or Luigi jumps in ''Super Mario Bros'' while the sound effect of the Regional coins from ''Odyssey'' plays when that variant is activated.
