The '''Cap Throw''' is a move introduced in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''. It involves [[Mario]] throwing [[Cappy]] at a target when the player presses {{button|switch|Y}} or shaking {{button|switch|joy-con}}. Mario can throw Cappy to perform several actions, including hitting, using, or [[capture|capturing]] enemies and objects; collecting [[coin]]s; and [[Cap Jump|jumping on Cappy]] to [[jump]] higher and farther. It can thus be considered the ''Odyssey'' equivalent of Mario's basic attack moves from prior 3D games of the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]].

Additionally, Mario can throw Cappy in different ways depending on the buttons pressed and/or how {{button|switch|joy-con}} is shaken. Flicking both {{button|switch|joy-con}} upwards performs an '''Upward Throw''', allowing Mario to hit enemies and objects above him. Flicking both {{button|switch|joy-con}} downwards (in midair) or flicking just one or pressing {{button|switch|y}} or {{button|switch|x}} during a [[Ground Pound]]'s impact does a '''Downward Throw''', which lets Mario hit things below him if he is in midair or near a ledge. Cappy spins like a wheel during a Downward Throw, so if he hits the ground, he rolls forward. This roll covers more distance than a standard Cap Throw, and it also follows any dips in the floor that a regular Cap Throw would soar over. Shaking both {{button|switch|joy-con}} sideways or pressing {{button|switch|y}} or {{button|switch|x}} while spinning performs a '''Spin Throw''', which sends Cappy in a spiral motion all around Mario. The Spin Throw is similar to the ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' games' [[spin]] or [[Tanooki Mario]]'s tail whip, but it has more range.
