'''Boomerang Mario''' is a transformation based on the [[Boomerang Bro]]. [[Mario]] becomes Boomerang Mario after obtaining a [[Boomerang Flower]]. 

==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario 3D Land''====
Boomerang Mario is first introduced in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''. In this form, Mario can throw one [[boomerang]] at a time to defeat enemies, destroy projectiles, and collect items from a distance.<ref>Koopman, Daan (October 19, 2011). [http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/impressions/28133 Super Mario 3D Land]. ''Nintendo World Report''. Retrieved November 2, 2011.</ref> Mario can also jump and move away from it to dodge the boomerang and allow it to move back and forth continuously before collecting it (though its range decreases with each pass-by). If a Boomerang is destroyed in any way after being tossed, Mario must wait a moment before he can toss another (a brief glimmer of light signifies that he can toss another boomerang). Unlike [[Hammer Mario]]'s [[hammer]]s, boomerangs can only defeat enemies [[Fire Mario]]'s [[fireball]]s can (as well as [[Bullet Bill]]s and [[Bomber Bill|Banzai Bill]]s). The armor closely resembles the usual blue armor worn by a typical Boomerang Bro, only Mario and [[Luigi]]'s sleeves and leggings, respectively, are red and green. The boomerangs thrown while in this form resemble the boomerang item from ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]''.

Boomerang Mario was created in response to [[Pom Pom]]'s boomerang projectile during the development of ''Super Mario 3D Land''.<ref>Totilo, Stephen (November 22, 2011). "[https://kotaku.com/5861970/when-we-show-a-power-up-to-mr-miyamoto-we-get-a-bit-nervous 'When we show a power-up to Mr. Miyamoto, we get a bit nervous.']" ''Kotaku''. Retrieved September 10, 2018. ([https://web.archive.org/web/20201127233753/https://kotaku.com/when-we-show-a-power-up-to-mr-miyamoto-we-get-a-bit-n-5861970 Archived] November 27, 2020, 23:37:53 UTC via Wayback Machine.)</ref>

====''Super Mario 3D World'' / ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''====
In ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]'', the boomerang has a longer range, and both it and the armor are now colored depending on the character using the power-up (red for Mario, green for Luigi, magenta for [[Princess Peach]], blue for [[Toad]], and turquoise for [[Rosalina]]; however, Mario retains the original blue armor from ''3D Land'', while Luigi's is purely green). Toad and Rosalina also gain gloves (with Rosalina's being shorter versions of Peach's), and the two girls wear boots in place of the form's normal shoes.

====''Super Mario Maker 2''====
In ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', knocking on a [[Warp Door]] in the ''Super Mario 3D World'' style may cause [[Weird Mushroom (item)|Weird Mario]] to appear in this form. On April 22, 2020, the 3.0.0 update added the Boomerang Flower and with it, the Boomerang form, to the ''Super Mario 3D World'' style for players to use.

===''Mario Golf: World Tour''===
In ''[[Mario Golf: World Tour]]'', [[Mii]]s can use a costume, golf ball, and set of golf clubs based on Boomerang Mario. The ball and clubs are available after playing rounds, and the costume is unlocked when the player succeeds 20 times in Endless Putting Practice.

===''Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition''===
[[File:PDSMBE-BoomerangMario.png|250px|thumb|left|Boomerang Mario's recruitment screen]]
Boomerang Mario appears in ''[[Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition]]'' as a Leader, available with the game's digital update to version 2.0, unlocked after earning an SS rank (25,000 points) or higher in Course 5 of the Fixed Challenge mode in [[Score Attack]]. Boomerang Mario is a Water/Fire attribute teammate with an HP rating of 5/6, an ATK rating of 3/6 and RCV rating of 4/6. Boomerang Mario's Skill, Boomerang Attack, recovers 3,000 HP for the entire party and changes Light Orbs on the Orb field into Heart Orbs. His Leader Skill, Spin Control, raises the ATK of the entire team when the player clears Orbs of 3 attributes or more, for a maximum of 5.5x for 5 attributes plus Heart Orbs (2.5x for three attributes; 3.5x for four; 4.5x for 5; and 5.5 for all 6 Orb types (5 elements + Heart Orbs)). Boomerang Mario uses [[Fruit (Yoshi food)|Fruit]] and [[Rare Fruit (Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition)|Rare Fruit]] to raise his Skill Levels.

Boomerang Luigi appears as a Leader as well, unlocked after earning an SS rank (25,000 points) or higher in Course 5 of the Free Challenge mode in Score Attack. Boomerang Luigi is a Water/Wood attribute teammate with an HP rating of 3/6, an ATK rating of 6/6 and RCV rating of 3/6. Boomerang Luigi's ATK rating of 6/6 makes him the strongest Leader and Water attribute teammate in the game. Boomerang Luigi's Skill, Boomerang Trick, cures the team's paralysis, and is a similar Skill to a [[Para-Beetle]]'s Support. Boomerang Luigi shares the same Leader Skill and Skill Item requirements as Boomerang Mario.

===''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam''===

===Other appearances===

|desc=If you know how the Boomerang Bros. like to fight, they really aren't that tough. But if Mario BECOMES a Boomerang Bro—Boomerang Mario—what then? Will his opponents be stunned by his new moves? At the least, throwing a boomerang makes things more fun!
|desc2="Before you judge someone, walk a mile in their shoes." Mario's taken that to the next level with the Boomerang Bros. – he's put on the whole outfit! As Boomerang Mario, he'll not just have more attack power – he'll have a big dollop of fun flinging that boomerang around. Great times!
