Goal Poles first appeared in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', and the flags on them come in many colors, though [[Goal Pole (secret)|red Goal Pole]]s usually indicate alternate exits in the [[New Super Mario Bros. (disambiguation)|''New Super Mario Bros.'' games]]. Since then, if the player manages to grab the top of a Goal Pole, they will usually earn an [[extra life]]. Goal Poles were replaced by boxed roulette-like [[Goal (Super Mario Bros. 3)|goal]]s in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and [[Giant Gate]]s in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. A Goal Pole symbolizes Mario and friends taking over or claiming that area—taking down [[Bowser]]'s flag and/or replacing it with their own. | Goal Poles first appeared in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', and the flags on them come in many colors, though [[Goal Pole (secret)|red Goal Pole]]s usually indicate alternate exits in the [[New Super Mario Bros.

In ''Super Mario Bros.'' and ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'', flagpoles feature a green pole (which can sometimes be orange or gray in certain levels due to palette limitations) and a white flag with a green skull on them, which is reversed in ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]''. [[Mario]] can jump over the flagpole in certain levels (such as [[World 3-3 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 3-3]] of ''Super Mario Bros.''). However, this will only result in Mario/Luigi being trapped in an empty, endlessly looping void once the flagpole disappears offscreen until they run out of time. In ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels'', Luigi can do so more easily due to his better jumping abilities. In order to still finish the level, the brother has to jump at it from the other side. It is unknown whether this is a glitch, as it does not cause any errors, and it was not fixed in ''Super Mario All-Stars'' (however, the player this time cannot venture beyond the fortress/castle and is simply just stopped by an invisible barrier on the right side of the screen), though ''[[Super Mario Bros. Deluxe]]'' makes it impossible; ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels'' actually hides a few [[Warp Zone]]s behind them. If the player gets a 1, 3, or 6 on the timer in ''Super Mario Bros.'', they can get one, three, or six [[fireworks]], each worth 500 points, depending on which number the last digit is. Grabbing the top of the flagpole in these games only rewards the player with 5000 [[point]]s, rather than with an extra life as is the case in later games of the series. However, in ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels'', the player can receive an extra life from a flagpole, but only if both digits of the coin counter and the last digit of the timer match when the player's character touches the flagpole.

In Super Mario All-Stars, the flag is on the right side, and in Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, he can slide down the right side if he's looking left when he touches the pole. In Super Mario Bros. Deluxe, when Mario grabs the pole, Bowser's flag is pulled down to the base before vanishing, while the flag with the character's emblem is raised. | ||

It works as it did in ''Super Mario Advance 4'', though it once again marks the levels' end. Also, if the last two digits of the time limit are the same (except 00) when the level is cleared, the "Course Clear" theme from ''Super Mario Bros.'' plays instead of the normal one, fireworks go off (1 for ending in 11, 2 for ending in 22, 3 for ending in 33, and so on, awarding 4,000 points per explosion, for a maximum of 36,000), and a one-time use bonus [[Toad House]] appears at the map's starting point. Time limits ending in 11, 22, or 33 yield a Power-Up Toad House; 44, 55, and 66 yield a [[Extra life|1-Up]] Toad House; and 77, 88, and 99 yield a [[Mega Mushroom]] Toad House. Additionally, [[Mega Mario]] can even destroy the pole, awarding 8000 points for doing so, and filling up one-fifth of the meter above them, ensuring at least one extra life is gained. They shrink into [[Super Mario (form)|Super form]] and head into the fortress afterwards. However, the time limit does not go into the player's score when this happens. Mario can slide down the right side by looking to the left, and slide down in front of the pole if he's looking away from the player. | ||

In ''[[New Super Mario Bros.

Goal | The Goal Pole in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]'' reappears in two designs: the standard design from previous games, and one with a blue flag with a white circle containing a four-petaled flower designed in four layers: dark blue from the outside, then light blue, then white, then pink in the middle. The latter Goal Pole can be destroyed by a herd of horned, cloud-like creatures. After either type of Goal Pole, there is a [[Toad House]]-like house with a swirly flower bud roof that replaces a [[fortress]] from which a Toad-like character resembling the house may exit and and give the player a [[Wonder Seed]].<ref>Nintendo of America (June 21, 2023).

As of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'', when Mario, Luigi, Bowser (in ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story''), or [[Paper Mario (character)|Paper Mario]] (in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'') gain [[Experience Points]], Goal Poles appear as the EXP meter; when the flag gets to the top of the pole, they [[level up]].
