'''Vases''', also known as '''Jars''', first appear in ''[[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic]]'' and later ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''.

 

====''Super Mario Bros. 2''====

In ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', they are the main modes of transportation of [[Subcon]], similar to that of [[Warp Pipe]]s from [[Mushroom World]] and the [[Earth|Real World]]; if a character goes down a vase, they will appear in a small room sometimes containing a [[key]] being protected by a [[Phanto]]. In some levels throwing a [[Potion]] on to a vase will allow the player to warp through the [[Worlds]], acting as the [[Warp Zone]]s of ''Super Mario Bros. 2''. Potions won't work inside vases though. [[Cobrat]]s sometimes lurk in the opening of some vases. Certain vases generate endless streams of enemies like [[Bob-omb]]s or red [[Shy Guy]]s unless their entrances are blocked. Vases made a small appearance in the ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' course [[Mushroom Kingdom II]], which also took place in Subcon. In ''[[Super Mario Advance]]'', some Vases also contain [[Spark]]s and [[Spark Chaser]]s.

Vases also appear in the pseudo-sequel, ''[[BS Super Mario USA]]'', and can be used in the same way as ''Super Mario Bros. 2''. In [[Subspace]], Vases will lead [[Mario]] to [[Wart]] and they shall battle against each other.

===''Mario Kart'' series===

====''Mario Kart 7''====

Vases appear as background items throughout the [[Shy Guy Bazaar]] course in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]''. They maintain their original appearance and coloration from ''Super Mario Bros. 2''. If driven into, they break and some items will fly out, namely [[Banana]]s. Some of them can also walk and move around, and they reveal many snakes when broken.

===''Yoshi'' series===

====''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' / ''Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3''====

Vases of a much different kind later appear in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', here called '''Pots'''. These pots are about [[Yoshi]]'s size, and are often found in castles and reveal contents (usually a key) upon breaking after a fall. One of these pots is even "powered up" by [[Kamek]], forming [[Roger the Potted Ghost]]. Pots also make a cameo on [[Chomp]]s' platforms in ''Super Mario Advance 3: Yoshi's Island'', though they are not there in the original game.{{br|left}}

====''Yoshi's Story''====

{{main|Magic Vase}}

In ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'', [[Magic Vase]]s make an appearance.

====''Yoshi's Island DS''====

Roger the Potted Ghost is referenced in ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'' (which also include ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island''-style pots) through the [[Potted Ghost]] enemy.
