The Super Leaf (スーパーこのは, Super Leaf) is an item from the Mario series.
Origin
The Super Leaf made its debut in Super Mario Bros. 3 and has become a recurring item in later Mario games. It is a brown-striped leaf with simple eyes.
The Super Leaf allows the player to transform into various forms based on shape-shifting creatures from Japanese mythology. In Super Mario Bros. 3, the Super Leaf could transform Mario and Luigi into Raccoon Mario and Raccoon Luigi, respectively; in New Super Mario Bros. 2, it could transform Luigi into Fox Luigi; in Super Mario 3D Land and Super Mario 3D World, it could transform Mario and Luigi into Tanooki Mario and Kitsune Luigi.
The Super Leaf forms allows the player to fly high is they ran fast enough, slow their descent by waving their tail, and hit enemies and blocks by swinging their tail. Also, the Tanooki Mario and Kitsune Luigi forms allow the player to transform into statues, which replaces the Ground Pound move.
Overview
The Super Leaf debuted in Super Smash Bros. 4 as a gear item.
The Super Leaf gives the fighter raccoon ears and a tail, allowing them to float for about three seconds by holding the jump button in a similar manner to Peach and Daisy's floating ability; however, it will allow the fighter to slowly descend. If the jump button is released before its time runs out, the player can reactivate it at any time by holding down the jump button again. While floating, a character can still perform all of their attacks as normal. It can not be used while in a helpless state, such as after many characters' up special moves.
In Ultimate, aerial attacks performed during the Super Leaf's float will never apply the new multiplier for short hop aerial attacks no matter how close to the floor the attacker is, much like Peach's aerials when done out of her float.
Trophies
In Super Smash Bros. Melee
Bullet Bill was mentioned in the Raccoon Mario trophy description.
In Super Smash Bros. 4
Transform into an adorable version of your normal self thanks to some raccoon ears and a fluffy tail. Unfortunately, you won't be able to fly through the air like Tanooki Mario—but you can hover for a bit by wiggling that tail. Hold the jump button while airborne to pull off this cute tactic.
This item gives you fuzzy ears and a tail. Remember, when it's just ears and a tail, he's Raccoon Mario - Tanooki Mario is the full suit. You won't be able to soar into the air like in Super Mario Bros. 3, but you can float by holding the jump button while in mid-air.

Trivia
- At one point in time, it was considered to allow characters to attack with their tail, another feature the Super Leaf gives in the Mario games, though it was decided against before the final release of Super Smash Bros. 4.
- Characters that naturally have a tail will have a second tail upon picking up the Super Leaf. Conversely, the raccoon ears are not visible on characters that already have pointed ears (with Fox and Lucario being two examples), with the exception of Pichu.
- Although Luigi's Raccoon and Tanooki forms are Kitsune-themed (as of Super Mario 3D Land), Luigi gains raccoon ears and a tail instead of fox ones if he uses a Super Leaf, like every other character. Similarly, if he grabs 100 coins on Golden Plains, he turns golden instead of silver, unlike in New Super Mario Bros. 2.
- For unknown reasons, Meta Knight and Olimar cannot float with the Super Leaf and simultaneously perform aerials. This applies to Ness, Lucas and Mewtwo as well, but only in SSB4.
- Olimar's inability to attack while floating may be because if he could the Pikmin would have to spawn next to him in an unnatural manner.
- When a Mii Fighter grabs a Super Leaf, they will only gain raccoon ears if they are not wearing any headgear; if they are, then only the tail will appear.
- Bowser and Mr. Game & Watch can cancel the falling in their stall-then-fall down aerials by activating the Super Leaf float after initiating their down aerials.
- Toon Link can also do this, but only if he hits an opponent.
- The Ice Climbers can also do this, but the falling is canceled very late into the move.
- When Mario, Diddy Kong and Terry equip the Super Leaf and use a taunt that removes their hat, the ears stay on their hat instead of their head. The same applies to the Bunny Hood.
