-'''Punch''' is an attack that anyone can do in the [[Mario (series)|''Mario'' series]], except characters with no hands, like [[Goomba]]s.
+'''Punching''' is an attack that most characters can do in the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]]. This is not to be confused with the punch that characters can do while [[jump]]ing to hit objects from below, or the punch that characters can do while on a [[Chain-Link|fence]].
+==History==
+===''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars''===
+[[File:SMRPG MarioPunching.png|thumb|Mario punching a Goomba in ''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'']]
+The punch move is seen in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', as [[Mario]]'s move to attack enemies and bosses when he is unarmed or when he is equipped with either the [[Punch Glove]] or [[Mega Glove]]. If the player performs a [[Action Command|Timed Hit]], Mario will do an uppercut after the first punch. Other [[Partner|party members]] (such as [[Mallow]] when unarmed, or equipped with the [[Whomp Glove]] or [[Sticky Glove]]) and enemies (such as [[Terrapin]]s) can punch as well, and [[Terra Cotta]]s and the boss [[Jagger]] have a [[List of moves|special attack]] called [[Terrapunch]] which involves them dashing into one of the party members with a punch to damage them.
-The punch move first appeared in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', where [[Mario]] used it to start an attack combo; [[Luigi]] and [[Wario]] also used punches to start combos in the remake, ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''. In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', Bowser uses punches to attempt to attack Mario in battles. Most characters have punch moves in the ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' series, and various ''[[Mario Party (series)|Mario Party]]'' minigames also involve fisticuffs. In ''[[Wario World]]'', Wario uses various punching moves to beat all his enemies. Finally, in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'', [[Bowser]] uses punches as an attack in battle, as well as on the field to destroy objects such as boulders that block his path. Bowser retains the attack in both [[Super Mario Galaxy 2]] and [[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]].
+===''Super Mario 64'' / ''Super Mario 64 DS''===
+In the ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' platforming games, the punch is only in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', where it is Mario's basic {{button|n64|B}} attack. Pressing the punch button again causes Mario to throw another punch, and pressing it a third time will make him [[kick]] instead, though he kicks by default when he is in the air. These punches are used to attack enemies, destroy [[Block (Super Mario 64)|blocks]], and grab [[crate]]s. [[Luigi]] and [[Wario]] can also use punches in the remake, ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', as well as [[Yoshi]] once he acquires one of the other characters' caps. While each character's punches are similar to each other in execution, Wario's punches (localized as the '''Wario Whack''')<ref>[https://cdn02.nintendo-europe.com/media/downloads/games_8/emanuals/nintendo_ds_21/Manual_NintendoDS_SuperMario64DS_EN.pdf ''Super Mario 64 DS'' English instruction booklet], page 21.</ref> launch enemies a great distance and can be used to destroy Black Bricks.

+===''Donkey Kong 64''===
-Some characters have alternate animations for their punch, most noticeably [[Princess Peach|Peach]] and [[Princess Daisy|Daisy]], who have an open-hand slap instead. [[Yoshi]] had a [[headbutt]] in the Nintendo 64 ''Mario Party'' games, but it was changed to a punch for the GameCube and Wii installments. Birdo had a slapping animation similar to Peach and Daisy in ''[[Mario Party 7]]'', but it was changed to the same punch animation as Yoshi's in ''[[Mario Party 8]]''.
+[[File:PrimatePunch.png|thumb|Chunky Kong performing the Primate Punch]]
+One of [[Chunky Kong]]'s special moves in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'' is called the [[Primate Punch]] (scientifically named '''Sandwichium Knucklus'''), which can be purchased from [[Cranky Kong|Cranky]][[Cranky's Lab|'s Lab]] for five [[Banana Coin]]s. This move is activated by pressing and holding the {{button|n64|z}} button while hitting the {{button|n64|b}} button when Chunky Kong is immobile, which makes him throw a powerful punch that can take down most enemies, destroy boxes and gates, and activate [[wall switch]]es.
+{{br|left}}
+===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
+Most characters have punching moves in the ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' series. In most cases, these moves are standard, tilt, or smash attacks, though some, such as [[Captain Falcon]]'s [[Falcon Punch]] or [[Donkey Kong]]'s [[Giant Punch]], are [[List of moves|special moves]].
+===''Mario Party'' series===
+Various ''[[Mario Party (series)|Mario Party]]'' [[minigame]]s involve punching objects or other players. Some characters have alternate animations for their punch, most noticeably [[Princess Peach|Peach]] and [[Princess Daisy|Daisy]], who have an open-hand slap instead. [[Yoshi]] uses a [[headbutt]] in the [[Nintendo 64]] ''Mario Party'' games, but it was changed to a punch in all later installments. Birdo also has a slapping animation similar to Peach and Daisy in ''[[Mario Party 7]]'', but it was also changed to a punch in ''[[Mario Party 8]]''. In ''[[Super Mario Party]]'', [[Goomba]] headbutts due to having no arms.
+===''Wario World''===
+In ''[[Wario World]]'', Wario punches when the player presses the {{Button|gcn|B}} Button. By holding the {{button|gcn|b}} Button down, a punch followed by a [[Dash Attack]] will occur. While beating up an enemy or a group of enemies, every third punch will be a headbutt, which is three times as strong as a punch.
+===''Mario & Luigi'' series===

+In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and its [[Nintendo 3DS|3DS]] remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', one of [[Bowser]]'s moves in the overworld is punching, which can be used to break or move objects, and activate switches. In battle, he winds up a punch that can be executed with {{button|ds|X}}, and depending on how far back Bowser winds up, the move deals extra damage. Later on in the game, he gains the [[sliding haymaker]], which allows him to move while punching, allowing him to break much more durable objects and move across large gaps without falling, similar to the [[Spin Jump (Mario & Luigi series)|Spin Jump]] that Mario and Luigi use. Bowser (as well as [[Bowser X]], a much more powerful version of him fought in [[the Gauntlet]]) also punches as one of his attacks as a boss later in [[Toadley Clinic]], as well as in [[Dream's Deep]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]''. Mario or Luigi must jump over when Bowser punches to counterattack. Occasionally, Bowser snorts before punching; if this happens, Mario or Luigi should not jump.
+===''Wario Land: Shake It!''===
+In ''[[Wario Land: Shake It!]]'', Wario can perform a punching move called the [[Earthshake Punch]] when the [[Shake Meter]] is full. Once used, Wario will punch the ground, releasing a shockwave that stuns all enemies on the ground, cause unsteady blocks to fall, or activate pillars, though the meter is fully depleted after one use. The [[Shake King]] uses a similar move during his battle with Wario, which involves him using both of his fists.
+===''The Super Mario Bros. Movie''===
+In ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'', Mario is shown punching a few times, such as when he punches a wooden cutout of Bowser in the [[Training Course (The Super Mario Bros. Movie)|Training Course]]. He also launches into the air to punch [[Donkey Kong]], only to be quickly subdued by him. Mario is shown punching Bowser and his minions at the climax of the movie.
+===''Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope''===
+In ''[[Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope]]'', [[Rayman]] can punch while exploring the [[Space Opera Network]] in the [[Rayman in the Phantom Show]] DLC. By pressing {{button|switch|a}}m Rayman can punch, destroying destructible blocks and cracked walls, as well as grabbing objects, even in midair. Rayman can also punch enemies to start a battle. Holding down {{button|switch|a}} will have Rayman charge his punch, increasing the distance of it.
