In ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', they are the main modes of transportation of [[Subcon]], similar to that of [[Warp Pipe]]s from [[Mushroom World]] and the [[Earth|Real World]]; if a character goes down a vase, they will appear in a small room sometimes containing a [[key]] being protected by a [[Phanto]]. In some levels throwing a [[Potion]] on to a vase will allow the player to warp through the [[Worlds]], acting as the [[Warp Zone]]s of ''Super Mario Bros. 2''. Potions won't work inside vases though. [[Cobrat]]s sometimes lurk in the opening of some vases. Certain vases generate endless streams of enemies like [[Bob-omb]]s or red [[Shy Guy]]s unless their entrances are blocked. Vases made a small appearance in the ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' course [[Mushroom Kingdom II]], which also took place in Subcon. In ''[[Super Mario Advance]]'', some Vases also contain [[Spark]]s and [[Spark Chaser]]s.

Vases of a much different kind later appear in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', here called '''Pots'''. These pots are about [[Yoshi]]'s size, and are often found in castles and reveal contents (usually a key) upon breaking after a fall. One of these pots is even "powered up" by [[Kamek]], forming [[Roger the Potted Ghost]]. Pots also make a cameo on [[Chomp]]s' platforms in ''Super Mario Advance 3: Yoshi's Island'', though they are not there in the original game.

[[Mimi]] once had a vase in the game ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'' but when [[Mario]] breaks the vase by accident, Mimi says he owes her 1,000,000 [[Rubee]]s. Mario eventually gets them. An exact replica of Mimi's vase can be seen in the house of [[Heronicus]] in [[Flipside]] in ''Super Paper Mario''.

A jar in Super Mario Sunshine, where they appear a lot differently than in Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic and Super Mario Bros. 2

Jars,[1][2][3] also known as pipes,[4][5] pots,[6][7] or vases,[8] appear in the Super Mario franchise as platforms or interactive objects that can be entered in the manner of a Warp Pipe.

History[edit]

Super Mario series[edit]

Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic / Super Mario Bros. 2 / Super Mario Advance[edit]

Jar

Jars in Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic and Super Mario Bros. 2 are the main modes of transportation of Subcon, and if a character goes down a jar, they will appear in a small room sometimes containing a key being protected by a Phanto. Jars in certain levels within Subspace contain a Subspace Warp that warps the player character to a certain later world. A door from a Magical Potion cannot be spawned inside of a jar. Cobrats sometimes lurk in the openings of some jars. Certain jars are Shy Guy Generators[9] and Bob-Omb Generators,[10] which generate endless streams of red Shyguys or Bob-Ombs, respectively, unless their entrances are blocked. In Super Mario Advance, some jars also contain Sparks and Spark Chasers, as well as (sometimes Shyguy-ridden) Ferris wheel platforms, and one contains a bouncing blade; jars were also added to levels in that version, and certain closed-off jars in previous versions were opened.

BS Super Mario USA[edit]

Jars in BS Super Mario USA are used identically as in Super Mario Bros. 2, except jars in Subspace lead to a battle against Wart.

Super Mario Sunshine[edit]

Jars[11] in Super Mario Sunshine appear a hidden room in Noki Bay, underneath Gooper Blooper's boss arena, and one of the two largest jars releases a blue coin when sprayed at.

Super Smash Bros. series[edit]

Mushroom Kingdom II in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Jars in the Super Smash Bros. series appear in the background of the Mushroom Kingdom II stage in Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Mario Pinball Land[edit]

Jars in Mario Pinball Land appear on the first pyramid interior board of the Shifting Sands Stage. There are four jars, which have earthy colors and diamond shapes on their pattern. They cannot be interacted with as their corners are elevated, but Snakes come out of them if the middle floor panel is activated.
