Lucky Bell: Difference between revisions

The '''Lucky Bell'''<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ThPAYK9cJI&t=5m04s The Cat Mario Show #12]</ref> (called the '''Lucky Cat''' power-up<ref>[http://www.primagames.com/games/super-mario-3d-world/walkthrough/super-mario-3d-world-walkthrough-world-10-world-mushroom Super Mario 3D World Walkthrough - World 10: World Mushroom] ([[Prima Games]] website)</ref> by the Prima Official Game Guide) is an item introduced in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'', resembling a bronze [[wikipedia:Jingle_bell|jingle bell]] (or possibly [[wikipedia:Bell_(instrument)#Konguro'o|konguro'o]]) with eyes. It turns [[Mario]] into his [[Cat Mario|Cat form]] with an added bell collar; this version of the form lets him transform into [[Lucky Cat Mario]], very akin to the [[Tanooki Suit]]'s [[Statue Mario|Statue form]], except it gives him [[coin]]s while falling, with more being given the higher he falls, and makes him [[Invincible Mario|invincible]]; however, it does not protect him against [[Lava|lava]] or being crushed. It is considered an upgrade of the [[Super Bell]], as later in the game, it replaces the Super Bell in the remixed courses. The Lucky Bell starts appearing in the Bonus World, [[World Mushroom (Super Mario 3D World)|World Mushroom]] in the level World Mushroom-2, [[Spiky Mount Beanpole]]. It serves as the counterpart of the [[Statue Leaf]] from ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''.

Lucky Bells also appear in the [[Nintendo Switch]] remake, ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]'', where they also appear in the ''Bowser's Fury'' mode. Like all other items, Mario may collect up to five of them to store in his inventory. Lucky Bells are very rare, and may also be obtained randomly by collecting one hundred coins. Notably, if Mario hits a [[Koopa Troopa]] [[Green Shell|shell]] with fireballs, boomerangs, or tail whips eight times before it lands, the shell will break open to reveal a Lucky Bell.
