Delfino Oak Tree
Mario Circuit
First appearance Mario Kart: Double Dash!! (2003)
Latest appearance Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (cameo) (2018)
A Delfino Oak Tree is part of the "Mario vs. Delfino Oak Tree" K'NEX building set. Using a mechanism adjoined to it, the tree can be pushed onto the racetrack to block racers.

Delfino Oak Trees[1] are a species in the Mario Kart series. Though their name suggests a connection to Isle Delfino, these trees are not endemic to it. They first appear within the Mario Kart: Double Dash!! iteration of Luigi Circuit and Mario Circuit, which respectively return in Mario Kart DS and Mario Kart Wii as classic courses. The majority of them appear on the outskirts of the course, watching the race, but a couple of them appear on the racetrack itself. If a racer bumps into them, the racer immediately comes to a stop. All of them gently bob and sway while remaining firmly planted.

Delfino Oak Trees can also be seen in the background of the Mario Circuit stage from Super Smash Bros. Brawl, which reappears in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, again flanking the racetrack.
