Mario about to counterattack a Spiny.

The Counterattack is a type of attack present in the Mario & Luigi series. When some enemies attack, it can be countered by jumping on or hammering the enemy. Almost every enemy provides a hint of which character it is going to attack (and thus which one needs to perform the counter). The counterattack's power is the same as a failed attack on the player's turn.

Mario and Luigi counterattack using their Hammers and their jump ability; in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, Bowser's counterattack moves are punching and ducking in his shell. When there is a Giant Bowser battle, Bowser's counterattacks are punches, as with his normal form, and fireballs. If the player has someone's attack powered up, it will also boost their counterattack's power.

In the Paper Mario series, it is replaced by block which halves damage.
