Poison Mushroom: Difference between revisions

====''Super Mario Bros. 2''====

In ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels|Super Mario Bros.: 2]]'', a Poison Mushroom will kill [[Small Mario]] or Luigi, or revert [[Super Mario|Super]] or [[Fire Mario|Fire]] forms into small; they have no effect on the [[Invincible Mario|Invincible]] form or the small form that is still flickering from a recent injury. Another way of getting rid of one is to reveal another power-up, such as a [[Super Mushroom]] or a [[1-Up Mushroom]], as this causes the first power-up to disappear. Poison Mushrooms are found in [[Brick Block]]s and [[Question Block|? Block]]s, coming in many different colors in the original FDS game everything grasslands, undergrounds, underwaters and fortresses. In the ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'' port, Poison Mushrooms changed their main appearance to blue, due to graphical changes. In ''[[Super Mario Bros. Deluxe]]'' remake, their sprites also corrected again, this time looking like a pink mushroom with a green cap that has a skull on it like All-Stars port.

 

After 12 years of absence in the ''Mario'' platformer games, Poison Mushrooms reappear in [[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]] in only one e-reader level, and has similar to SMAS remake of [[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels|Super Mario Bros. 2]].

Poison Mushrooms reappear in the [[Nintendo 3DS]] title ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''. In this game, they somewhat behave like enemies as they follow Mario or Luigi around until he is in an area that the Poison Mushroom is unable to get him, or falls into a bottomless pit. The player is also able to destroy them by launching a [[fireball]] or [[boomerang]] at them, or transforming into a [[Statue Mario|statue]] to make them vanish on contact. Their appearance is that of a purple mushroom with pink spots that emit a purple dust (possibly spores) when released and grabbed. They appear only in the Special Worlds, and their effects are the same as in ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels'', where Mario or Luigi can lose a life if they grab one in their small form.
