'''Countdown Pound''' is a Duel [[minigame]] found exclusively in ''[[Mario Party 5]]''.

==Gameplay==
The two combatants each stand on a platform that is connected to a timer and a balloon that corresponds to the character's color (For example, Mario has a red balloon, Yoshi has green, and Koopa Kid has orange). The timer counts down from ten seconds while pumping a balloon. The goal is to [[Ground Pound]] the platform as close to 0:00 seconds as possible. The player who is closer to 0:00 seconds is the winner. The loser's timer changes to XX:XX, and their balloon bursts, sending the losing player flying off-screen. Additionally, if the player fails to Ground Pound before the timer hits zero, they lose.

It is possible to end in a draw. Both players must stop the timer at the exact time or both must fail to ground pound before the timer hits zero. In this case, both timers changes to XX:XX and both balloons burst.

==Trivia==
*The characters' primary victory poses can be seen on the balloons.
