{{quote|Hammers are my life! I'm a hammer champ!|Hammer Bro|Mario Party Advance}}
In ''[[Mario Party Advance]]'', a Hammer Bro appears in the [[Mushroom Field]] as a hammer thrower. According to his description, he is a world-renowned hammer thrower and is fond of challenges. When approached, he asks the player what they're doing at the "Hammer Camp". If questioned, he explains that the people there work constantly to improve their hammer throwing abilities, leading him to claim that he is very skilled at using hammers. After the player asks if they can participate, he demonstrates how to throw a hammer before starting their competition. Once the player throws their hammer farther than Hammer Bro, he says that he's impressed with the player's skill and gives them a trophy [[Gaddget]], the [[Mini B-Ball]].

The player with the most stars battles him in a [[minigame]] called [[Hammer Chime]]. In the minigame, the player has to memorize and copy Hammer Bro's drums beaten in limited time.

His [[Skillshot]] is the [[Hammer Throw (Mario Strikers Charged)|Hammer Throw]], which, once fully charged, causes Hammer Bro to leap into the air and toss hammers at the Kritter, the goalkeeper, nailing him to the ground and thus immobilizing him. This leaves the goal open for a few seconds. Once the Kritter is stuck to the ground, the Hammer Bro smacks the ball in for an easy shot. However, the Hammer Throw has a limited range, meaning that it must be used not too far from the goal to be effective.
