| The '''Ball Hop''' is a [[Bros. Move]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]''. The move is taught to [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] by [[Big Massif]] and [[Lil' Massif]] on their second visit to [[Mount Pajamaja]]. Big Massif and Lil' Massif also call it the "Super-beef-muscle-flex-ultra-special-double-ab-crunch-jump". It took 25 years for them to create it. Ball Hop can be seen as the spiritual successor to the moves [[High Jump]] and [[Tickle]] from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' (and its [[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions|3DS remake]]) while visually referring back to [[Bro Ball|Bros. Ball]] from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''. | | The '''Ball Hop''' is an overworld Bros. Move in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]''.

| This move used by first pressing {{Button|3ds|R}} until the action icon cycles to two curved arrows. Either {{button|3ds|A}} or {{button|3ds|B}} starts the move, with Luigi jumping onto Mario and having both of them curl into a single ball. If there is not enough space above the Bros. for this jump, Ball Hop is unable to start. | | This move is executed when in front of a high ledge which is too high for the Bros. to reach. Mario and Luigi will jump into a ball, which will endlessly move until the player presses {{button|3ds|A}} or {{button|3ds|B}} again. The jumps that the ball make are higher so the Bros. can reach higher places. It is also used for Ring Puzzles, where Mario and Luigi must jump through rings in ball form without touching the same space again. |

| While in a ball, the Bros. bounce continuously. However, Ball Hop can only bounce in place or move a fixed distance in a cardinal direction. The trajectory is determined with the {{button|3ds|stick}} while the ball is grounded. (As in, pressing a direction while airborne has no effect on the arc.) By pressing {{button|3ds|A}} or {{button|3ds|B}} again, the Bros. split up and stand again. However, the move cannot be cancelled during the initial bounce of Ball Hop.

| The jumps that the ball make are higher than normal, enabling the Bros. to reach higher places or get over certain obstacles. The fixed jump arcs make it useful for moving across small platforms that are difficult to land on with the Bros.'s default movement. It is also used for Ring Puzzles, where Mario and Luigi must jump through rings in ball form without touching the same space again. When starting Ball Hop close to a Ring Puzzle, Mario will slide into a set position so as to align Ball Hop's jumps. Ball Hop is featured in [[Ding-a-Ring]], a minigame based on going through rings while avoiding landing in any space more than once.

| Ball Hop cannot pass through scene transitions. When the Bros. enter one, the move will end, then they walk through. If Ball Hop lands on an enemy, Mario performs the [[First Strike]].
