Power Up Pots[1] are power-ups that appear in Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3. There are four different types of Pots: the Garlic Pot, Bull Pot, Jet Pot and Dragon Pot, with the latter three giving unique "Power-Wario"[2] abilities. Pots are always found in blocks in different levels. If Wario is hit by an enemy while he is using a Pot, he will immediately shrink and turn into Small Wario. The table below shows what ability each Pot gives:

Trivia[edit]

  • While not considered Power Up Pots, Virtual Boy Wario Land contains a similar chain of power-ups, with the Eagle Statue[5] and Dragon Crystal[6] replacing the Jet and Dragon Pot. The Japanese version calls the former the 「イーグルポット」,[7] or Eagle Pot (while the latter is still called 「ドラゴンクリスタル」,[8] Dragon Crystal), suggesting a connection.
