Super Mushroom: Difference between revisions

The Super Mushroom made its debut in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' as the '''Magic Mushroom''' and has become an important recurring item in later ''Mario'' games. The Super Mushroom allowed the player who touched it [[mariowiki:Super Mario (form)|to grow larger]] and able to withstand a single hit from enemies and break [[Block|Brick Block]]s by jumping into them from underneath. It has since appeared in nearly every ''Mario'' sidescroller game (except for ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros. 2}}'', where it simply increased the player's health), as well as ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario 3D Land}}'' and ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario 3D World}}'' with the same effect.

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. When a fighter touches it, it has the following effects:

*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'').

*Increases the base power of direct attacks (1.2× in ''Melee'', 1.56× from ''Brawl'' onwards), subsequently increasing knockback.

The Super Mushroom does not appear as an item; however, [[Giant Donkey Kong]], the opponent in the sixth stage of the [[1P Game]] mode, features the effect of the Super Mushroom.

The Super Mushroom debuts as a transformation item made its debut in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series in ''Melee'', with the effects described above.

''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.''

The Super Mushroom returns as an item, reprising its behavior from ''Melee''.

When a fighter collects the Super Mushroom, they will strike a pose after touching the Super Mushroom, 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.

:''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.''

:{{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...''

Unlike in ''Brawl'' and ''Super Smash Bros 4.'', the fighters 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 appears as an Advanced-class [[support spirit]]. It can only be [[Shopping|purchased]] at [[Master Spirit|Timmy & Tommy's]].
