Suction

Birdo using her Suction ability.

Suction is a unique ability used by Birdo in two games, Mario Superstar Baseball and Mario Super Sluggers. Suction allows Birdo to grab balls from distances away from her, much like Yoshi's Tongue Catch. Whenever Birdo uses this ability to catch flying balls, she gets a Big Play.

In Mario Super Sluggers, it is renamed Suction Catch and has a slight delay to the execution, however, there are no missions specifically centered around her Suction Catch, unlike Yoshi's Tongue Catch.
