'''Lumas''' ({{ja|チコ|Chiko}}, ''Chiko'') are a species of creature from the ''{{Uv|Mario}}'' series. They appear in a variety of colors, and possess a number of distinct abilities related to outer space, most notably the ability to transform into celestial bodies. The Lumas are commonly seen alongside [[Rosalina]], who acts as their surrogate mother.

They appear in a variety of colors, and possess a number of distinct abilities related to outer space, most notably the ability to transform into celestial bodies. The Lumas are commonly seen alongside [[Rosalina]], who acts as their surrogate mother, as well as {{s|mariowiki|Lubba}}, who acts as their leader.


==Creature Description==
Six varieties of Lumas (including {{s|mariowiki|Polari}}), alongside Rosalina, made their ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' debuts as a tag team of playable characters in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. They return in that capacity in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.
Lumas are star-like creatures that have appeared in central roles in both ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Galaxy}}'' and ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Galaxy 2}}''. They are friendly creatures who have the ability to transform into several outer space-related objects, such as {{s|mariowiki|Launch Star}}s, planets, and even Galaxies. They can also grant abilities to others, such as the ability to shoot [[Star Bits]] or {{s|mariowiki|Spin}}. Not much is known about the Lumas' origin, although what is known is that upon death, they are reborn into new stars. They come in a variety of colors, including yellow, red, blue, green, apricot, dark brown, pink, purple, turquoise, and orange, while even giant varieties have also been seen.

Lumas (チコ, Chiko) are star-like creatures from the Mario series. They appear in a variety of colors, and possess a number of distinct abilities related to outer space, most notably the ability to transform into celestial bodies. The Lumas are commonly seen alongside Rosalina, who acts as their surrogate mother, as well as Lubba, who acts as their leader.

Six varieties of Lumas (including Polari), alongside Rosalina, made their Super Smash Bros. debuts as a tag team of playable characters in Super Smash Bros. 4. They return in that capacity in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Origin[edit]

Two different colored Lumas in their debut of Super Mario Galaxy.

Lumas have appeared in central roles in both Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2. They are friendly creatures who have the ability to transform into several outer space-related objects, such as Launch Stars, planets, and even Galaxies. They can also grant abilities to others, such as the ability to shoot Star Bits or Spin. Not much is known about the Lumas' origin, although what is known is that upon death, they are reborn into new stars. They come in a variety of colors, including yellow, red, blue, green, apricot, dark brown, pink, purple, turquoise, and orange. Giant varieties have also been seen.

Lumas have generally appeared in background roles, but one was made playable for the first time in Mario Tennis Open for Nintendo 3DS.

In Super Smash Bros. 4[edit]

As a playable character[edit]

Rosalina as she appears in Super Smash Bros. 4, from the character page.
A Luma alongside Rosalina, as they appear in Super Smash Bros. 4.

The Lumas fight alongside Rosalina as newcomers in Super Smash Bros. 4. They function similarly to Pikmin in that they have a set amount of hit points, but can also fight on their own, similarly to the Ice Climbers. In addition to the yellow Lumas that always appear with Rosalina at the start of a battle, green, blue, red and apricot (the color of baby Luma) Lumas can appear, as does Polari. However, Polari and these other varieties only potentially join the battle when the initial Luma is KO'd.

Trophies[edit]

Lumas do not have any trophies of them alone, although they share several trophies with Rosalina.

Lumas reappear alongside Rosalina in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. They have been nerfed during the transition, as they have less hit points and get knocked back more easily from attacks, leaving them much more susceptible to KOs. However, Lumas have also gained a 1.5× damage multiplier when launched away from Rosalina, and respawn earlier in battles with multiple players.

Spirits[edit]

Luma also appears as an Advanced-class support spirit and is featured on the Starship Mario spirit, while the Hungry Luma appears as a Novice-class support spirit.

In Adventure Mode: World of Light, Luma is presumably one of the countless spirits captured by Galeem during his takeover of the universe. Luma's spirit is located in the outer space section of The Light Realm.

Luma's Spirit Battle uses an army of Kirby puppet fighters and is fought on the Mario Galaxy stage. During the battle, Star items will appear, referencing the Luma's star-shaped bodies.

During the Hungry Luma Spirit Battle, Luma uses a Kirby puppet fighter and is fought on the Mario Galaxy stage. It is fought along with the Rosalina & Luma puppet fighter. During the battle, the Super Launch Star item appears, referencing the Hungry Luma's ability to transform into Super Launch Stars, or hidden planets that require a Super Launch Star to access.
