|applies_to=[[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Yellow Toad (character)|Yellow Toad]], [[Blue Toad (character)|Blue Toad]], [[Toadette]], [[Toad]], [[Mii]]

While Mario is in his Flying Squirrel form, he gets red puffy overalls, a grayish shirt and shoes, and a big red cap with two squirrel ears on it and a beige brim. On his back, he has a pair of grey membranes and a tail. This appearance seems to be based off of [[Raccoon Mario]]. Flying Squirrel Luigi has these changes, too, but wears green cap and overalls. The Flying Squirrel [[Toad (species)|Toad]]s have a cap colored according to their emblem color, with two bright stripes and squirrel ears. They also get a red handkerchief around their neck, gloves, squirrel-like fur, yellow or blue pants, grayish shoes, flying membranes, and a tail. Toads lose their vests becoming Flying Squirrel Toads.

This form is based on {{wp|flying squirrel}}s, real life mammals that are capable of gliding between trees. [[Waddlewing]]s, creatures that debuted in ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' just like the Flying Squirrel form, are likewise inspired from these animals.

====''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''====

Mario in his Flying Squirrel form is depicted as a [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]''. The trophy can be obtained at random in one the game's modes.

 

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', [[Yellow Toad (character)|Yellow Toad]]'s Flying Squirrel form appears as an Advanced-class support [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]]. When used, it increases the fighter's upward and downward launch power. In the spirit's battle, the player faces a Tail [[Mii Swordfighter]] wearing a [[Super Mushroom]] hat and a Monkey Suit on the [[Mushroom Kingdom U]] stage.

|''When Mario grabs a Super Acorn, he turns into Flying Squirrel Mario! Like a real flying squirrel, he can hold out his arms and glide through the air. That must feel really, really awesome! This power isn't just for fun, though—it has practical uses, too, like helping him grab the coins floating in midair. Da-ding! Da-ding! Da-ding! Da-ding!''
