Mario Power Tennis

Power Shots are special attacks in Mario Power Tennis that are triggered from a button combination. After a set time, players' rackets glow and make a special sound to indicate that they can use a special shot. There are two types of Power Shots: Offensive Power Shots and Defensive Power Shots. All players have their own distinctive power shots. The offensive power shot is used when the ball is near the player. These come with special effects to disorient the opponent(s). If a player with a glowing racket returns an Offensive Power Shot, the glowing effect is removed and the player must recharge their racket. Defensive shots are used when the ball is out of the player's reach. In fact, Defensive Power Shots can also negate the added effects from Offensive Power Shots.

Mario Tennis: Power Tour

Power Shots play a prominent role in Mario Tennis: Power Tour, where part of the game's RPG mode revolves around the player and other characters developing Power Shots. Power Shots can be earned by completing minigames at the Tennis Academy Training Center, and the player can then assign any offensive or defensive Power Shot available to them, to Ace or to Clay. Additionally, there is a Power Shot under the name Power Shot in the game. Power Shots are also used by members of the Royal Tennis Academy varsity class, competitors at the Island Open, and the entrants of the Peach Tournament.

Mario Golf (series)

Power Shots are stronger versions of regular shots. They are used up when the shot is not done perfectly.

Mario Golf: World Tour

Since the number of holes to play can be adjusted, the number on the Power Shot meter is equivalent to the number of holes being played divided by three.
