I recently played as the Doc. I noticed that the megavitamins have different colors when you throw them. Do different colors to different damages? [[User:Mr. Anon|Mr. Anon]] ([[User talk:Mr. Anon|talk]]) 02:07, June 8, 2010 (UTC)

This is a bit difficult to explain or needs more information...
I've played a custom Dr. Mario using the [[Mega Capsule]], [[Shocking Sheet]], [[Ol' One-Two]], and [[Clothesline Tornado]]. I've noticed that when I use Shocking Sheet on an opponent "trapped" by a Mega Capsule, it would likely send them flying with noticably more [[knockback]] than usual (it would launch them at a quicker speed than normal then after flying far enough (depending on their damage), they'd suffer knockback as normal). I haven't noticed this with the other specials nor tried it with {{SSB4|Mario}}. I guess it has something to do with the mechanics of the two custom moves?

Capsules or Megavitamins?[edit]

I looked at the Dr. Mario manuals for both NES and Game Boy, and I have noticed that the megavitamins are actually referred to as "capsules." Do you think that this should be added in the trivia section? Gorilli09 (talk) 22:15, December 13, 2024 (EST)

Going through the Super Mario Wiki, I found out that the name "Megavitamins" actually originates from Dr. Mario 64, although those were only ever seen in that game's story mode and the Japanese name for the Smash Bros. move is literally just "capsules" (which is mostly due to Dr. Mario 64 not receiving a Japanese release by the time Melee came out). As for whether it should be on the "Trivia" section, I'm honestly not sure if it should go there or the "Origin" section instead.
