While in this form, the character is transformed into a plump, anthropomorphic elephant, and they are able to attack and defeat enemies such as [[Goomba]]s by swinging their trunk at them, similar to [[Raccoon Mario]] with his tail.<ref>Nintendo of America (June 21, 2023).

-Other abilities the Elephant form possesses include the ability to pick up and throw large shells, increased strength when pushing movable objects, the ability to break through multiple layers of blocks from below, the ability to knock enemies into other enemies to defeat them, the ability to get multiple coins out of brick blocks all at once, and the ability to juggle shells in the air repeatedly to transform them into coins.

 Unlike most other powerup transformations in the ''Mario'' series, this form transforms the character's physical body instead of being a suit of some kind: all characters lose their hair and shoes, though Mario and [[Luigi]] keep their mustaches and Peach and Daisy keep their eyelashes; all four of them also keep their eyebrows. While Mario and Luigi assume a typical gray coloration, [[Blue Toad (character)|Blue Toad]] become blue-gray, [[Yellow Toad (New Super Mario Bros. series)|Yellow Toad]] becomes pale yellow, [[Princess Peach|Peach]] and [[Toadette]] become pink, and [[Princess Daisy|Daisy]] becomes light orange. Furthermore, the Toads and Toadette's ears are rounded, while Peach and Daisy's are frilled and have their hair color inside with their earrings attached to their ears. They also have the same color on the tip of their tails and heart-shaped soles under their feet.
