'''Ice Mario''' is a form that [[Mario]] takes upon touching an [[Ice Flower]], granting him ice-related powers. It is often viewed as a parallel to [[Fire Mario]]. It replaces [[Ice Mario (Super Mario Galaxy)|a vastly different form of the same name]] from ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''.
 
==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''====
[[File:NSMB Ice Mario.png|thumb|left|Ice Mario's artwork from ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'']]
The Ice form gives Mario, [[Luigi]], [[Blue Toad (character)|Blue Toad]] and [[Yellow Toad (character)|Yellow Toad]] the power to shoot [[Ice Ball]]s, just like with the Ice Flower [[Bros. Item]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''. In this form, Mario's overalls turn red, while his cap and shirt turn cyan, similar to Fire Mario (likewise, Luigi and the Toads have their own take on this appearance).
 
This form is not to be confused with the [[Penguin Mario|Penguin form]], as that form has more abilities. In addition to throwing Ice Balls, Penguin characters can slide on their bellies (destroying breakable blocks and enemies in the way), swim with much more control and agility, and walk/run on ice without skidding. The [[Penguin Suit]] itself is rarer than the Ice Flower.
 
Ice Balls can be used to take out [[Larry Koopa|Larry]], [[Iggy Koopa|Iggy]], [[Morton Koopa Jr.|Morton]], [[Roy Koopa|Roy]], [[Ludwig von Koopa|Ludwig]], and [[Kamek]]'s magical fireballs, as well as [[Bowser]] and [[Bowser Jr.]]'s [[fireball]]s. However, they cannot hurt nor freeze the bosses. Normal enemies will be trapped in ice cubes when hit by an Ice Ball. They will eventually try to free themselves, but the effect of this varies from enemy to enemy. Some will die after breaking free, releasing [[coin]]s, but others can free themselves without taking damage. If the player lifts a frozen enemy, they will never break free as long as they're being held.
 
The frozen enemies can be ground-pounded to defeat them. Many frozen enemies can also be defeated by lifting and throwing them, which makes them slide in the direction they were thrown, defeating other enemies in their path until they shatter on a wall or fall of a cliff. Even unbeatable enemies like [[Dry Bones]] can be destroyed after being frozen and will not revive. However, some enemies and obstacles, like [[Thwomp]]s, are so solid that Ice Balls cannot freeze them. Other large enemies, such as [[Porcupuffer]]s and [[Big Piranha Plant]]s, can be frozen, but will break out immediately and ultimately cannot be harmed by ice. Other enemies, like most other Piranha Plants and [[Sledge Bro]]s., cannot be picked up. Flying enemies can be frozen in mid-air, allowing the player to jump off them, but after a while, their block will fall and break on the ground, defeating them.
 
====''New Super Mario Bros. U'' / ''New Super Luigi U'' / ''New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe''====
Ice Mario makes a reappearance in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' and ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', functioning identically. [[Mii]]s can also make use of Ice Flowers to become Ice Miis. This time, most of the bosses can be frozen, but will break out immediately.
 
In the [[Nintendo Switch]] port ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe]]'', [[Toadette]] can also make use of Ice Flowers to become Ice Toadette.
 
====''Super Mario Maker'' / ''Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Super Mario Maker 2''====
While Ice Mario doesn't appear in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', ''[[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'' as a usable form, knocking on a [[Warp Door]] in the ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' style may cause [[Weird Mushroom (item)|Weird Mario]] to appear in this form.
 
===''Paper Mario'' series===
====''Paper Mario: Sticker Star''====
Ice Mario appears briefly in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'', whenever Mario uses any type of [[Sticker (Paper Mario: Sticker Star)|Ice Flower Sticker]].
 
====''Paper Mario: Color Splash''====
As in the previous game, Ice Mario appears in ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'' as a Mario transformation by using an [[Battle Card (Paper Mario: Color Splash)#Ice Flower|Ice Flower card]].
 
===''Mario Kart Arcade GP DX''===
[[File:Ice Luigi artwork.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Artwork from ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP DX]]'', showing Ice Luigi as an alternate color scheme for Luigi.]]
In ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP DX]]'', Ice Luigi appears as a downloadable alternate color scheme for [[Luigi]].

==Trivia==
*As Ice Mario, Mario's overalls turn red, and his hat and shirt turn a light blue, resembling the Mario found on the cover of the first issue of ''Nintendo Power'' and his outfit in the [[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!|three]] [[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3|DIC]] [[Super Mario World (television series)|cartoons]] and in the early ''Mario'' games prior to ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' in which his colors were inverted from his current design. It also resembles his blue costume from the first three [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' games]].
*As Ice Luigi, Luigi's overalls turn green, and his hat and shirt turn a light blue, resembling his appearance from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' prior to ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' and his outfit in the three DIC cartoons in which his colors were inverted from his current design.
