'''Bouncy Wario''' is one of [[Wario]]'s famous transformations in the [[Wario Land]] series of games. If hit by a Malletape's hammer, Wario will be squashed, only to spring right back up again in this state, used to spring to new heights. In all three versions, Wario has a time limit before he will return to normal (hitting a spike will also work). However, in Wario Land [[Wario Land 2|2]] and [[Wario Land 3|3]], pressing A will let Wario jump slightly higher, while in [[Wario Land 4]], pressing A will cause Wario to jump up until he hits an obstacle , allowing him to return to normal.

If hit by the hammer of a [[Pogo Guy]], [[Hammer-Bot|Hammer-bot]] and [[Menhanmā]], or a [[Hammer (Wario Land 4)|hammer]] after it loses its spikes, Wario will be squashed and his legs turn into springs, only to spring right back up again in this state, used to spring to new heights. In all three versions, Wario has a time limit before he will return to normal (hitting a spike will also work). However, in ''[[Wario Land II]]'' and ''[[Wario Land 3]]'', pressing {{button|gbc|A}} will let Wario jump slightly higher, while in ''[[Wario Land 4]]'', pressing {{button|gba|A}} will cause Wario to jump up until he hits an obstacle, allowing him to return to normal. When the time limit runs out, Wario will bounce one final time in the direction that he last moved.


Bouncy Wario has appeared in volume 28 of ''[[Super Mario-Kun]]''. During a fight with [[Spoiled Rotten]], when Wario is low on health, [[Mad Scienstein|Arewo Shitain-hakase]] gives [[Hoggus]] a hammer. Hoggus then uses the hammer to hit Wario, transforming Wario into Bouncy Wario. Bouncy Wario then proceeds to defeat Spoiled Rotten. Wario also uses this form to defeat [[Golden Diva]]. Additionally, in volume 22, Wario hits Mario with a hammer, turning the latter into Bouncy Mario.

==Trivia==
*In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and [[Super Mario Galaxy 2|its sequel]], [[Mario]] can use a similar form: [[Spring Mario]].
*The way Wario looks in Bouncy form is similar to the way he looks after eating a [[Springo Candy]] in ''[[Mario Party 8]]''.
