Editing Super Mushroom

The '''Super Mushroom''' ({{ja|スーパーキノコ|Sūpā Kinoko}}, ''Super Mushroom'') is an object from the {{uv|Mario}} series, debuting as an [[item]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''.

The Super Mushroom is an important aspect of the entire ''Mario'' series. Starting in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', where it was originally called the Magic Mushroom, it [[mariowiki:Super Mario (form)|made the user larger]], allowing him to withstand a single hit from enemies and break [[Block|Brick Block]]s by jumping into them. Since then, it has appeared in nearly every ''Mario'' sidescroller, as well as ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario 3D Land}}'' and ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario 3D World}}'', with the same effect, with the exception of ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros. 2}}'', where it simply increased the player's health. It has appeared so much in the ''Mario'' series that it is now considered an icon of it, and as a result it serves as its [[series symbol]] in the ''Smash'' games.

The Super Mushroom appears on the stage and keeps sliding to the right. In ''Melee'', it will slide left if it spawns on the right half of the stage. A character touching it will grow larger, with the following effects:

*Makes the character, and their [[hitbox]]es and hurtboxes, bigger.

*Increases the fighter's [[weight]] by a small amount (applies a 1.6× multiplier in ''Melee'', and a 1.42× multiplier in ''Super Smash Bros. 4'' and ''Ultimate'').

*Reduces the fighter's [[knockback]] taken multiplier.

**The item does not offer any [[armor|knockback resistance]] bonuses, however, so the fighter will still [[flinch]] from attacks that deal any amount of knockback.

*Direct attacks deal more damage (multiplied by 1.56× from ''Brawl'' onwards, less in ''Melee'') and subsequently more knockback.

**The base knockback and knockback growth values are not affected.

*Thrown [[items]] go farther and deal more damage.

*Increases [[Jumping|jump]] height proportionally.

*Increases [[falling speed]] and [[gravity]]. Certain [[up special]]s, such as [[Hero's Spin]], will grant less vertical height as a result.

*Increases [[air speed]] significantly (seemingly by a larger factor than fall speed).

*Increases [[Dashing|running speed]] proportionally.

*Longer landing lag when using [[aerial attack]]s.

*Increases size of [[ledge]] sweetspot.

*Shortens the distance gained by the character's [[recovery]] moves in ''Melee''.

*The character's sound effects and voice become lower-pitched and slowed down. This does not affect gameplay.

The Super Mushroom does not appear in the game. [[Giant Donkey Kong]], who has the effect of the Super Mushroom, is an opponent in the 6th stage of the [[1P Game]] mode. The Super Mushroom also cameos as the [[series symbol|Universe symbol]] of the [[Mario universe]].

The Super Mushroom made its debut in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series in ''Melee'', with the effects described above. Additionally, in the [[Special mode]] [[Giant Melee]], all players are permanently under the effects of one, and these effects (except pitch) can stack. Giant battles can also occur in {{SSBM|Classic Mode}}.

''Super Mario Bros. veterans will recognize these power-ups, which hid inside brick blocks and helped Mario and Luigi withstand enemy attacks. In Super Smash Bros. Melee, they temporarily turn your character into a giant. Not only will your size and strength increase, but so will your mass, making it harder for foes to knock you off.''

*''Super Mario Bros.'' (10/85)

[[File:Super mushroom.jpg|thumb|Super Mushroom on [[Pokémon Stadium 2]] in ''Brawl'']]

In ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', characters strike a pose while growing/shrinking, briefly relishing their increased size and lamenting their return to normal size. Most of the items held by the player, as well as their own projectiles, will be proportionate to their bigger size. Certain attacks or charge ups can be interrupted if a Super Mushroom touches the player in the course of doing an action.

;Super Mushroom

:''A mushroom that makes you giant sized. When you're this big, your attack power increases and you're harder to launch. But you become an easy target and may come under serious fire. Unlike other items, it doesn't remain in one place but moves to the right once it appears. Why to the right? Well, because that's what it did in its original appearance in Super Mario Bros.''

[[File:Super Mushroom U.jpg|thumb|The Super Mushroom in {{forwiiu}}]]

The Super Mushroom returns in ''Super Smash Bros. 4'', keeping its prior behavior. Giant battles are once again available as a [[Special Smash]] option and during Classic Mode.

There is now a glitch that occurs in training mode where the item may fail to increase the weight of the user until it is attacked at least once.

Unlike in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', all fighters who acquire a Super Mushroom will deal 1.56x their normal damage with their direct attacks.

In a Giant Special Smash, fighters are heavier than normal, but unlike in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', they don't receive any knockback taken reductions. Their direct attacks still deal 1.64x their normal damage, and the multiplier increases to 3.08x if they acquire a Super Mushroom. In a Tiny Special Smash, fighters who acquire Super Mushrooms will deal 0.676x their normal damage. The Super Mushroom also appears as headgear for Mii Fighters.

The Super Mushroom is a red trophy item: when selected, it makes the user start a battle under the effect of a Super Mushroom. Using this trophy cancels the effect of a [[Poison Mushroom]] trophy used by an opponent.

:{{Flag|ntsc}} ''This mysterious mushroom will cause you to grow several times your normal size. Once you've grown, the power of your attacks and your ability to launch your opponents will increase. However, being so large— and such an easy target—may not be so great in a fight with lots of enemies...''

:{{Flag|pal}} ''This mysterious mushroom will just keep sliding until it bounces off a wall. If you touch it, though, you will grow! You'll get stronger and be harder to launch, but you'll also be a much easier target. Maybe standing out so much during a fight isn't such a good idea...''

The Super Mushroom returns once again as an item in ''Ultimate''. Unlike ''Brawl'' and ''Super Smash Bros 4.'', characters no longer strike a pose when they're growing or shrinking, making their animation similar of that to ''Melee''. This also prevents certain attacks and animations from being interrupted when a player touches one. The Super Mushroom also returns as headgear for Mii Fighters.

*In ''Brawl'', [[Pikmin Throw]] uniquely won’t change pitch upon growing or shrinking.

*In ''Ultimate'', the sounds of giant puppet fighters in several Spirit battles may play at their normal pitch instead of slowed down as usual for unknown reasons. This appears to happen frequently when the [[conditions]] "The enemy is giant" and/or "Giant [character]" are not listed on the spirit battle preview screen; an example can be seen with the giant puppet fighters appear in the handful of [[List of spirits (Persona series)#Spirit Battles|spirit battles]] in {{uv|Persona}}'s [[DLC Spirits (mode)|DLC Spirit Board]]. This is also true for the spirit battles involving tiny puppet fighters.
