Mario's cap can be stolen by [[Klepto]] and | Mario's cap can be stolen by [[Klepto]] and a [[Ukiki|Ukkiki]], or blown away by a [[Fwoosh]] or the giant snowman in [[Snowman's Land]]. When Mario does not have his cap and takes a hit by an enemy or a hazard, he loses an additional [[Health Meter|health]] wedge to how many health wedges he loses (for example, if Mario, without wearing his cap, takes damage from an enemy that causes him to lose two health wedges, he loses three health wedges). When lost, Mario's cap can be found by grabbing the Ukkiki, attacking Klepto, or simply picking it up if no enemies stole it. If the cap is blown off by the Fwoosh on [[Tall, Tall Mountain]], the player has to exit the course, return to it, and grab the Ukkiki wearing Mario's cap. This applies only to the [[Nintendo 64]] version of this game. In the DS remake, if Mario, Luigi, or Wario loses his cap and the player exits the [[level]] and completes a mission in another level, a [[Toad (species)|Toad]] in the main lobby of the [[Peach's Castle|Mushroom Castle]] can be seen wearing it. Talking to the Toad returns the cap to the player. | ||
In ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', the various characters' caps appear instead and serve a new function. Grabbing a cap allows whoever possesses it to change his appearance and abilities (however, his voice remains unchanged). If a character (besides [[Yoshi]]) loses his cap, short-fused [[Bob-omb]]s pop out of [[Cap Block|red block]]s instead of power-ups, in addition to the original game's defense penalty. If the character without his cap takes damage from an enemy or hazard that takes one health wedge, he loses one health wedge on the first hit, then loses two health wedges on the second hit, and the process repeats. In the early portion of the game, those kinds of caps also act as [[1-Up Mushroom|1-UP Mushroom]]s. For example, if Yoshi wears Mario's cap and takes another one, he is awarded a [[extra life|1-UP]]. However, as Yoshi frees Mario, Luigi, and Wario, redundant caps are replaced with ones of a different color, and it is impossible to find two caps of the same color, except during the [[Bob-omb Battlefield]]'s second mission, [[Footrace with Koopa the Quick]], where one extra Mario Cap is still present. Yoshi can choose to wear the caps of whatever characters were rescued before entering a course. If the character, along with his own cap, is blown off, this time he needs to retrieve it from the enemy who is wearing it. | In ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', the various characters' caps appear instead and serve a new function.

If Mario does not get back his cap, his energy slowly drains until he loses a life, due to it being so hot (standing in the shade has no effect). Along with wearing his cap, the Swipin' Stu gains a Mario-esque mustache. This design is later used for the [[capture]]d enemies in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''. | ||

In ''Super Mario Odyssey'', [[Cappy]] can take the forms of many different [[Crazy Cap#Clothing|caps]] that Mario can wear. These caps can be thrown to hit [[block]]s and enemies, capture certain characters or objects, and be used as a temporary jumping platform for Mario (among other uses). All caps are aesthetic and have identical abilities (excluding access to certain areas). | In ''Super Mario Odyssey'', [[Cappy]] can take the forms of many different [[Crazy Cap#Clothing|caps]] that Mario can wear.

In ''[[Paper Mario]]'', an item called the [[Stone Cap]] can be bought at [[Harry's Shop]] for 30 [[coin]]s, or found in [[List of hidden blocks in Paper Mario|hidden block]]s in [[Shy Guy's Toy Box]] and [[Jade Jungle]]. When Mario wears it, he gains the [[Stone (status effect)|Stone]] status, transforming into a stone statue. Mario is invincible to any damage for three turns, but wearing the Stone Cap prevents him from attacking. | |||
