'''Dunk Hammer'''<ref>''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'' in-game guide</ref> is a Bros. Action that appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and its [[Nintendo 3DS|3DS]] remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]''. In the former, this move is known as '''Luigi Dunk'''.<ref name="Manual">[http://i.imgur.com/Ce0M6tr.png ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' instruction manual, page 20.]</ref> It is taught by [[Cork and Cask]] in [[Chateau de Chucklehuck]] along with the [[Mini-Mario]] technique. When [[Mario]] whacks [[Luigi]] from behind with his [[hammer]], Luigi will be buried into the ground, unless the two are above certain surfaces such as metallic plating. While in this state Luigi can move underground, allowing him to pass under obstacles and jump into barrels from beneath, though he cannot pass through some surfaces.


'''Luigi Dunk'''<ref>[http://i.imgur.com/Ce0M6tr.png ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' instruction manual, page 20.]</ref> is a Bros. move in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. It is taught by [[Cork and Cask]] in [[Chateau de Chucklehuck]] along with [[Mini-Mario]]. When [[Mario]] whacks [[Luigi]] from behind with his [[Hammer]], Luigi will be buried into the ground, unless the two are above metallic plating. While in this state Luigi can move underground, allowing him to pass under obstacles and jump into barrels from beneath. If Luigi passes through an obstacle in which Mario cannot follow, he will be separated. Mole Luigi can also be used to find [[Bean|Chuckle Beans]] hidden in underground spots marked with an X. Once Luigi has emerged from the ground, he cannot go underground again without Mario's help. This move resembles [[Baby Drill]] from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'' and Drill Bros. from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]''.
If Luigi passes through an obstacle in which Mario cannot follow, like a metal gate, he will be separated from him. Luigi can also be used to find [[bean]]s hidden in underground spots marked with an "X", and also [[Bean Fruit]] and [[Beanstone]]s. Once Luigi has emerged from the ground, he cannot go underground again without Mario's help. If this is used over a [[Surfing Spot]], Luigi will be turned into a [[surfboard]] that Mario can use to surf across [[Oho Ocean]] to reach [[Joke's End]] later in the game. The in-battle equivalent to this move is [[Chopper Bros.]], and it is also used in the [[Advanced Command|advanced]] version of the [[Thunder Bros.]] [[Bros. Attack]]. If Mario surfaces Luigi under certain enemies and pop out of the ground in the overworld, the enemy will be launched into the air and fall back down [[Dizzy|stunned]], which allows the bros to either escape or [[First Strike]] them more easily.


In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', this move returns, but this time Mario is the one buried, so the move is called '''Mario Dunk'''.

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', Mario and Luigi switch roles and the move is now known as '''Mole Mario''', but is functionally identical. It is taught by two [[Shelltop]]s working for [[Britta]] in [[Dozing Sands]] along with [[Mini-Mario]], which is used instead of Mole Mario if the move is attempted above hard ground.
