'''Dream Basketball''' is a [[Dream Event]] that appears exclusively in the [[Nintendo DS]] version of ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games (Nintendo DS)|Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games]]''. It is set in Blue Sky Field. The objective of the event is to score as many points as possible by shooting the basketballs into the hoops. The event is unlocked by completing the Stardust Circuit.
In this dream event, players must shoot basketballs into three baskets with wings to score points (2 points per basket). All the baskets move horizontally, but all in a different speed (Upper basket flies fast, middle basket flies normal, lower basket flies slow). If the ball the player throws comes in more baskets in one throw, the player can get combos to get more points. Golden basketballs sometimes appear. They can be thrown in a basket to get triple points, and getting more points by making combos. This event also has a time limit for the player. The player can customize the time limit by changing the amount in the "Set Rules" screen before the event starts. The player can play for one minute, one and a half minutes, or for two minutes. Whoever has the most points when time runs out is declared the winner of the event. The {{button|ds|Stylus}} is used for this event. To collect a basketball and aim, the player must tap the {{button|ds|Stylus}} on the ball and drag it anywhere on the bottom screen. Releasing it lets the character shoot the basketball.


==Gameplay==
==Items==
In this event, the player must attempt to score as many points as possible by shooting the balls into the hoops, within a set time limit. In the Set Rules menu, the time limit can be set to either 60, 90 or 120 seconds. To be able to throw the ball into the baskets, the player must first catch one of the balls which come bouncing towards them on the Touch Screen, by touching and holding it with the stylus. If the player lifts the stylus before throwing the ball, the character will drop the ball that they are currently holding. To throw a ball that the player has caught, they must slide upwards on the touch Screen. The direction in which they slide and the speed will affect the throw, allowing the player to aim for the different baskets. The player scores two points for throwing the ball into a single basket, with double points being scored per ball for each extra basket they throw it into. Gold balls will also occasionally appear onscreen or when the player uses the Starman item, which score six points for a single basket and twelve for a combo shot. Powerup Balls will also occasionally appear, which only score two points when thrown into a basket, but depending on the item on it, will cause a number of different effects:
Sometimes, there are basketballs with item logos marked on them. The player automatically uses the item marked on it if the ball makes it through the hoop. Each item has a different effect, and all are limited for a time:
*[[Super Mushroom]]: Increase the size of the player's baskets for a short amount of time.
*[[Super Star|Starman]]: All of the balls which appear on the lower screen will be golden balls for a limited time. The character's icon on the top screen will change colors for the duration of this powerup.
*[[Chaos Emerald]]: Either makes a [[Boo]] appear in one of the opponents' baskets for a short time, which will bounce out any balls thrown into the basket, or will cause their baskets to move around faster.
*[[Balloon (Sonic the Hedgehog)|Balloon]]: Causes all of the baskets to line up vertically, making it easier for the player to perform combo shots.


==Controls==
*'''Super Mushroom''' - After use, the hoops of the baskets will grow in size, so it's easier to score.
*Use the stylus to play this event.
*'''Chaos Emerald''' - Can cause one of the two things to all foes: the first one is that a [[Boo]] will block a random basket, so it can't be used; The second one is that some baskets fly slower or faster, so it's harder or easier to score.
*Touch the ball on the Touch Screen to catch it. If you pull away, you will drop the ball.
*'''Balloon''' - All the baskets will fly to the center of their horizontal line, so it's easier to make combos.
*After catching the ball, slide upward on the Touch Screen to shoot.
*'''Starman''' - When the Starman is in use, only golden basketballs appear, allowing the player to score more points.
*Aim for the baskets on the top screen when you slide!
*Score points by shooting the ball into a basket.
*Earn more points by hitting two or more baskets with the same shot.
*In addition to normal balls, some Powerup Balls may come your way.
