'''Dr. Mario''' is an alter ego of [[Mario]], appearing in [[Dr. Mario (series)|a series of his own]]. In this persona, Mario dons a lab coat, a head mirror and a stethoscope around the neck. He first appeared in ''[[Dr. Mario (game)|Dr. Mario]]'', and the ''Dr. Mario'' series has expanded to new consoles and handhelds by [[Nintendo]]. Dr. Mario has additionally appeared as an unlockable fighter in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''.
'''Dr. Mario''' is the persona [[Mario]] assumes in the [[Dr. Mario (series)|''Dr. Mario'' series]]. Under this identity, Mario dons a lab coat, a head mirror, and a stethoscope around his neck. Debuting in [[Dr. Mario (game)|his eponymous game]], Dr. Mario and his assistant [[Princess Peach|Nurse Toadstool]] work at the [[Mushroom Kingdom Hospital]], where he eliminates [[virus]]es and other diseases by using [[capsule]]s, a premise that has been the standard for subsequent games starring him. Dr. Mario is a character separate from Mario in some media, such as the ''[[Super Mario (Kodansha manga)|Super Mario]]'' Kodansha manga and the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]].
 
[[Princess Peach]] herself, becomes a character similar to Dr. Mario known as [[Nurse Toadstool]] also appearing in some of the games (or mentioned). As mentioned in the manual, Dr. Mario and Nurse Toadstool work at the [[Mushroom Kingdom Hospital]].

====''Dr. Mario''====
[[File:Dr Mariones.gif|thumb|left]]
[[File:DrMarioPoint.png|thumb|Dr. Mario's original design for his titular game]]
Dr. Mario marked his first appearance in a game with the same name, ''Dr. Mario''. It was released in 1990 on the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]]. The game set a basis to future ''Dr. Mario'' games, where the [[player]] controls [[Megavitamin]]s to land on [[Virus]]es. By stacking three or more halves of Megavitamins on a virus of the same color, the Virus would disappear. As such, yellow Viruses were eliminated with yellow Megavitamins, red Viruses were eliminated with red Megavitamins, and blue Viruses were eliminated with blue Megavitamins. The objective was to remove all viruses on the screen, and when that was completed, the player could advance to the next level.
[[File:MarioDMNES.png|thumb|left|Dr. Mario in the game]]
In ''[[Dr. Mario (game)|Dr. Mario]]'' (and its remakes ''VS. Dr. Mario'', ''[[Tetris & Dr. Mario]]'', ''Dr. Mario BS Version'', and ''[[Dr. Mario & Puzzle League]]''), Dr. Mario works in a virus research lab at the Mushroom Kingdom Hospital, alongside Nurse Toadstool.<ref>{{cite|quote=I'm Mario. How's it going? Over the last few years, I've been involved in some pretty wild adventures. Now, believe it or not, I work in the virus research lab at the Mushroom Kingdom Hospital.|title=''Dr. Mario'' (NES) instruction manual|page=3|language=en-us|date=1991|publisher=Nintendo}}</ref> When an experiment goes wrong, the hospital is flooded with [[Virus|tri-color viruses]].<ref>{{cite|quote=One of the experiments has gone out of control. The viruses are spreading quickly!|title=''Dr. Mario'' (NES) instruction manual|page=3|date=1991|language=en-us|publisher=Nintendo of America}}</ref> Armed with [[Capsule|vitamin capsule]]s–a medicine of his own invention<ref>{{cite|quote=I have just developed a new vitamin that should be able to take care of it. I sure hope this stuff works!|title=''Dr. Mario'' (NES) instruction manual|page=3|date=1991|language=en-us|publisher=Nintendo of America}}</ref>–Dr. Mario sets out to neutralize the outbreak. In gameplay, Dr. Mario periodically throws vitamin capsules into the bottle. Afterwards, the player can move and land them on [[Virus]]es, which spawn throughout the bottle. By connecting a line of three or more halves of vitamins to a virus of the corresponding color, the Virus disappears. As such, blue vitamins eliminate Chill Viruses (blue), red vitamins eliminate Fever Viruses (red), and yellow vitamins eliminate Weird Viruses (yellow). Removing all viruses on the screen advances the player to the next level. Dr. Mario's design during gameplay also differs in comparison to his appearance in artworks and on the game's cover: his hair and mustache area a light shade of brown, his head mirror's headband is white, and he does not wear gloves.
{{br|left}}
 
====''Dr. Mario 64''====
[[File:Dr. Mario 64 Dr. Mario.png|frame|left]]
In ''[[Dr. Mario 64]]'', Dr. Mario receives several subtle aesthetic changes, with most of them reflecting Mario's own changes over time. In particular, some sprites feature him wearing a tie, which has since become a staple of his design. However, unlike on the cover and in artworks, his stethoscope is still directly around his neck, his tie is blue instead of red, his head mirror's headband is white instead of gray, his doctor's coat has no buttons or pockets, and he wears a tank top instead of a shirt.
 
Dr. Mario is one of the two playable characters in Story mode, the other being [[Wario]]. In the storyline, Dr. Mario is hard at work curing sick patients across the village with [[Capsule#Dr. Mario 64|Megavitamin]]s, getting the attention of both Wario and [[Mad Scienstein]]. When Dr. Mario leaves the house, his Megavitamins are stolen by Mad Scienstein. Dr. Mario notices Wario after finding out that his Megavitamins are gone, causing him to think that Wario is responsible. After finding out that Wario didn't steal them, both notices Mad Scienstein getting away with the medicine, and a chase ensues. The rivals Dr. Mario and Wario go after him and meet many creatures known from ''Wario Land 3'' on their way. In Wario's storyline, Dr. Mario is his first opponent, and one of his seventh opponents in Normal difficulty or greater. In the end, it is revealed that Rudy is actually sick and Scienstein was ordered to retrieve the magical healing pills to cure him.
 
In Dr. Mario's storyline, when he reaches [[Rudy]]'s castle, he confronts Rudy, who got a hold of the Megavitamins. After beating Rudy, he notices the cold that he is having, so Dr. Mario promptly uses his Megavitamins to cure his cold, causing him to feel better before returning back to his home. In Normal difficulty or higher, if Dr. Mario wins every match without redoing any,  Wario steals the Megavitamins and ingest them to become [[Vampire Wario]]; When Wario is defeated, Dr. Mario returns to Rudy to cure his cold before returning back to his home. In Wario's storyline, after beating Hammer-bot in Easy, Dr. Mario is seen chasing after Mad Scienstein, but is never seen again after that. In Normal or higher difficulty, after Wario has beaten everyone else, Dr. Mario is left behind after defeat, and only returns to confront Wario if Wario wins every match without redoing any. This causes an accident that changes Dr. Mario into [[Metal Mario]], and if beaten, Dr. Mario will return back to normal while being unconscious.
 
In Vs. modes, his AI difficulty is the second highest, which is the same as both Wario and Mad Scienstein.
 
====''Dr. Mario Online Rx''====
[[File:DrMarioOnlineRxDrMarioGameplay.png|thumb|left|Dr. Mario, as seen in ''[[Dr. Mario Online Rx]]''.]]
In ''[[Dr. Mario Online Rx]]'', players can control Dr. Mario or any Mii stored in their [[Wii]]. Dr. Mario serves a similar role as his debut game; he takes capsules from his bag and throws them into the bottle, using them to defeat viruses. His design is consistent, with blue eyes, a buttoned coat, a shirt, a red tie, a gray head mirror headband, fair skin and the stethoscope has an altered position, now being along his shoulders.
 
====''Dr. Mario Express''====
''[[Dr. Mario Express]]'' gives Dr. Mario the same role as in ''Dr. Mario Online Rx'', though with a cel-shaded model to match the game's cartoonish art style.
 
====''Dr. Mario: Miracle Cure''====
Dr. Mario appears in the compilation in ''[[Dr. Mario: Miracle Cure]]'', which includes his younger twin brother [[Luigi]] reprising his role as Dr. Luigi. ''Miracle Cure'' features "Dr. Mario", the standard gameplay where Dr. Mario assists players with destroying viruses, as well as two additional modes: "Operation L" from ''[[Dr. Luigi]]'' and "Virus Buster". One new clearing method Dr. Mario can use is the titular Miracle Cure, which is a gauge that, once filled, can be used to destroy all viruses and capsules of the corresponding color, drop a bomb to remove adjacent viruses and capsules, or clear an entire column.
 
====''Dr. Mario World''====
[[File:Dr Mario and Dr Toad DMW.png|thumb|Dr. Mario and Dr. Toad in ''Dr. Mario World'']]
Dr. Mario appears in ''[[Dr. Mario World]]''. Unlike the previous installments, he and [[Luigi]] are no longer the sole playable doctors; instead, they are joined by a plethora of their allies, such as [[Princess Peach]] and [[Yoshi]], and even some enemies like [[Bowser]], [[Bowser Jr.]], and the [[Koopalings]].
 
In a version update, both Dr. Mario and Dr. Peach received [[Fire Mario|Fire Flower-empowered variants]], which gives them a lab coat and stethoscope over their normal Fire form outfits. Dr. Fire Mario improves upon Dr. Mario's skill by removing pieces that require multiple matches to clear otherwise. In a subsequent update, Luigi and [[Rosalina]] continued this theme. To celebrate the 30th anniversary of ''Dr. Mario'', an 8-bit version of Dr. Mario was given to all players as a gift.


Dr. Mario's skill allows him to eliminate the lowest line of objects, and is represented by a big capsule with an "M" on it. If the lowest line of objects contain only unclearable objects such as cages and [[Empty Block|Empty Blocks]], it will be ignored in favor of the next lowest line with clearable objects. In versus mode, his skill also allows him to clear the bottom-most line with objects, but starting from level 2 it will clear up to two lines, which are the bottom-most line with objects and the line above that. At higher levels, this skill fills up faster.  
===''[[Vs. Dr. Mario]]''===
''Dr. Mario Vs.'' was a game that was made for Vs. matches of ''Dr. Mario'', released for the ''Nintendo Vs. System''. Dr. Mario's role in the game remained the same, as the game had little difference from its predecessor.


8-bit Dr. Mario's skill in stage mode is to eliminate three special viruses, which is represented by an 8-bit magnifying glass hovering over the play area that was temporarily changed to be the same as the screen seen in ''Dr. Mario'' (NES). Special viruses are basically any virus that is different from a normal virus, including [[floatie virus]]es and viruses encased or covered inside other objects such as [[barrel]]s or [[Cloud (object)|cloud]]s. If there are no more special viruses remaining, his skill will eliminate one random virus or a clearable object with the exception of capsules and coins if no viruses remain. In versus mode, his skill is to temporarily prevent the opponent from controlling half capsules, although half capsules can be pushed down by a full-sized capsule. The versus skill lasts longer and/or have a faster skill meter fill at higher levels. 8-bit Dr. Mario is the only doctor to have decreased speed in filling the attack meter and the skill meter since his introduction, though the changes happen during separate updates.
===''[[Dr. Mario 64]]''===


===Nintendo Comics System===
''Dr. Mario 64'' was the third installment of the ''Dr. Mario'' series, released on the [[Nintendo 64]]. It was the first game of the series to include a storyline. In the plot, [[Mad Scienstein]] robs Dr. Mario of his Megavitamins and brings them to his master, [[Rudy the Clown]]. Dr. Mario, as well as [[Wario]], who wants to sell the Megavitamins for money, set off to defeat the two.[[File:Dr. Mario 64 Dr. Mario.png|thumb|right]] In the end, it is revealed that Rudy was actually sick and Scienstein was ordered to retrieve the magical healing pills from Dr. Mario.
Dr. Mario appears in [[Nintendo Comics System]]'s adaptation of ''Dr. Mario'', entitled "[[The Doctor Is In... Over His Head]]". Mario and Princess Toadstool, expecting a plumbing emergency, enter the [[Mushroom Kingdom General Hospital]], although they find no emergency. [[Dr. Waldo Bloom]] insists so and makes Mario his research assistant, calling him Dr. Mario. After touring through the hospital, Dr. Waldo takes them to his laboratory where he shows them the Viruses, and he explains that the Viruses have been multiplying. The original Viruses, inside the jar, soon break free and introduce themselves as Chill, Fever, and Weird. Eventually, after discovering that matching the colors of stacked vitamins can destroy Viruses, Mario manages to defeat them.


Princess Toadstool then advises Dr. Bloom play golf and return only he is done with the game, but Mario notes that Dr. Bloom is a bad golfer, which means Dr. Bloom will be off duty for a long time. Princess Peach then suggests Mario to be both a plumber and a doctor, which Mario agrees to do.
Story Mode of ''Dr. Mario 64'' would pit Dr. Mario (or Wario) against various villains in Vs. matches of Virus busting. It also featured [[Dr. Mario (game)|the original game]], known as Classic Mode.


===''Super Mario World'' television series===
===''[[Dr. Mario Online Rx]]''===
In the animated [[Super Mario World (television series)|''Super Mario World'' TV show]] episode "[[King Scoopa Koopa]]", Mario finishes off his healthy-eating request to a group of cave people with the line "Dr. Mario's orders!".
''Dr. Mario Online Rx'' is a [[WiiWare]] game that was made available for download on the Wii Shop Channel. Players could control not only Dr. Mario but [[Mii]]s as well &ndash; players can choose to play as any Mii from their Mii Channel stored in their [[Wii]]. The game featured [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]], allowing vs. matches to take place around the world.


===''Super Mario Adventures''===
===''[[Dr. Mario Express]]''===
[[File:SMAdventures-DrMario.jpg|thumb|left|Dr. Mario and Luigi as a nurse in ''Super Mario Adventures'']]
''Dr. Mario Express'', known as ''A Little Bit of... Dr. Mario'' in PAL regions was released on [[DSiWare]] for the [[Nintendo DSi]] for 500 DSi points. This game has the same design as ''Dr. Mario Online Rx'', but unlike the Wii version, it does not offer a multiplayer mode or feature the "Virus Buster" mini-game. 3-D objects are cell-shaded in this game.
A possible variant of Dr. Mario appears in the tenth "episode" of ''[[Super Mario Adventures]]''. However, he was not a physical doctor, but rather a psychologist. It was also only a ploy to gain the trust of Big Boo and get out of the [[Ghost House]] they were trapped in.


===''Club Nintendo''===
==Remakes & Compilations==
Dr. Mario also appears in the German [[Club Nintendo (magazine)|Club Nintendo]] comic "[[Süße Weihnachten]]" where he helps [[Bowser]] who suffers from a stomachache on Christmas Day. Bowser has Viruses in his stomach, and Dr. Mario advises him to take bitter pills instead of marzipan.
Many of Dr. Mario's games have been remade or featured in compilations of puzzle games.
{{br|left}}
===''Classic NES Series: Dr. Mario''===
One of many NES games that were remade for the ''Classic NES Series'' on the [[Game Boy Advance]]. The game had exactly the same gameplay as the original ''Dr. Mario'', meaning that, of course, Dr. Mario himself appeared.


===''Super Mario-kun''===
===''[[Nintendo Puzzle Collection]]''===
[[File:DrMario (Super Mario Manga Mania).png|thumb|Dr. Mario in ''[[Super Mario Manga Mania]]''.]]
Featured on the [[Nintendo GameCube]] and only released in Japan. This game featured many different past [[Nintendo]] puzzle games (such as ''Tetris'' and ''[[Yoshi's Cookie]]''), and ''Dr. Mario 64'' was only one of them.
Dr. Mario makes a brief appearance in volume 1 of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'', in which [[Yoshi]] falls from the Sky and Mario then transforms into Dr. Mario before stuffing a giant capsule in his mouth. Dr. Mario reappears in volume 8, after being attacked by a [[Tweeter]], Mario transforms into Dr. Mario. He then reveals a [[shell]] underneath a rock and attaches rocket boosters (which resemble capsules) to it, enabling him, [[Luigi]], and [[Yoshi]] to fly on it. This knocks away nearby [[Snifit]]s.


Dr. Mario appears in a special chapter of ''[[Super Mario Manga Mania]]'', entitled "Super Mari-''Old''". While Mario is in the hospital, suffering from a hurt spirit and age over the course of 25 years (an allusion to Yukio Sawada's experience when his father passed away from pancreatic cancer and he was so afflicted with loss he ended up in the hospital, but while having to still make jokes for the manga), Dr. Mario walks in and forces a giant pill down Mario. It cures Mario and causes Mario to realize that his long time spent has plenty of positive experiences. Dr. Mario confirms, and then he tells Luigi and Yoshi, who are accompanying Mario, that he is Mario from 25 years in the future, celebrating the series's 50th anniversary. After his work is done, he hops on a vehicle and says he needs to go back to the future.
===''[[Dr. Mario & Puzzle League]]''===
For the Game Boy Advance, this game featured ''Dr. Mario'' alongside an unrelated game, ''Puzzle League''.


===''Super Mario 4koma Manga Theater''===
==''Super Smash Bros.'' series==
[[File:DrMario SM4MT.png|thumb|left|Dr. Mario in ''[[Super Mario 4koma Manga Theater]]'']]
[[File:Dr Mario SSBM.png|frame|left]]
Dr. Mario also makes a short appearance in one strip of ''[[Super Mario 4koma Manga Theater]]''. Here, he receives a patient, which turns out to be a [[Dry Bones]], much to his annoyance.

====''Super Smash Bros.''====
{{main|SmashWiki:Dr. Mario (SSBM)}}
While Dr. Mario does not appear in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', he is mentioned in Mario's profile as one of his professions.
Dr. Mario is an unlockable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. He is unlocked by beating Classic or Adventure mode with [[Mario]], without losing any lives, and then beating Dr. Mario. Most of his attacks and moves are nearly identical to his standard self, Mario. However, instead of [[fireballs]], Dr. Mario shoots [[Megavitamins]] at his opponents, his smash attack uses electricity instead of fire, and his regular yellow [[cape]] is replaced by his doctor's cloak. Dr. Mario is slower in ground than his red counterpart is, but faster in the air, and more powerful than he is. This more than makes up for his lack of good running and jumping skills. He was removed in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', but hacking, data for Dr. Mario was found in Brawl, confirming that he was supposed to have another role in the game. Dr. Mario's ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' theme can be one of the songs that play in the [[PictoChat]] and custom stages, however. He also has a [[sticker]] after him.
===Special Moves===
====Megavitamins====
{{main|SmashWiki:Megavitamins}}
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', Dr. Mario's neutral B attack makes him shoot Megavitamins. They act the same as [[Mario|Mario's]] [[Fireball]] move, except that the Megavitamins are more powerful (Do 8% instead of 5). In fact, they are one of the strongest fast-moving projectile in the game. They also bounce in a different path, and make the ''[[Dr. Mario (game)|Dr. Mario]]'' sound effects when they bounce (colour line cleared) and hit (virus defeated). There's also a trophy of Dr. Mario shooting Megavitamins and one of the vitamins themselves. [[Kirby]] is also able to use the Megavitamins if he copies Dr. Mario's powers.


====''Super Smash Bros. Melee''====
====Super Sheet====
{{main-wiki|SmashWiki|Dr. Mario (SSBM)}}
{{main|SmashWiki:Cape#Super Sheet}}
Dr. Mario is an unlockable fighter in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. He can be unlocked by clearing [[smashwiki:Classic Mode (SSBM)|Classic Mode]] or [[smashwiki:Adventure Mode (SSBM)|Adventure Mode]] with [[Mario]] without using any [[smashwiki:Continue|continues]] or by playing 100 Melee matches, and then defeating him in the immediate subsequent match on [[Peach's Castle]]. Unlike in his home series, Dr. Mario has a somewhat different design, having a blue stethoscope, a brown head mirror headband and a pair of dark gray pants. Like his normal self, Dr. Mario's weight is 100 units. The default theme from his game, "[[Fever]]", is available in the soundtrack. Due to being a moveset [[smashwiki:Clone|clone]], the overwhelming majority of Dr. Mario's moves are nearly identical to his normal self's.<ref name=Source/> The concept of a slower, yet stronger Mario was originally considered to be used for [[Wario]], a concept that went to Dr. Mario instead due to time constraints.<ref>{{cite|url=sourcegaming.info/2016/01/31/dufl-sources|title=The Definitive Unused Fighters List in Smash – Source Translations|publisher=Source Gaming|accessdate=June 5, 2024}}</ref> Some of Dr. Mario's animations are less energetic and thus make him appear more serious and contemplative.<ref name=Source>{{cite|url=www.sourcegaming.info/2016/01/16/melee-drmario|title=News Flash! Super Smash Bros.: Dr. Mario|publisher=Source Gaming|accessdate=June 5, 2024}}</ref> Besides an increased strength, Dr. Mario throws [[Capsule|Megavitamin]]s instead of [[Fireball]]s, his [[smashwiki:Forward smash|forward smash]] uses electricity instead of fire, he uses the white-colored [[Super Sheet]] instead of the [[Cape]], and his [[Super Jump Punch]] is stronger despite consisting of fewer hits. Dr. Mario cannot wall jump like Mario. His [[smashwiki:Air speed|air speed]] is slightly faster than his normal self's.
'''Super Sheet''' is a move used by [[Dr. Mario]] in the game ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. It is executed by pressing Side + B. The attack is almost the same as [[Mario]]'s [[Cape]] attack, except that Super Sheet is longer, but narrower, and does more damage. It is actually one of Dr. Mario's doctor cloaks. Like the Cape, it can change the directions of projectile-based attacks, and can also change the position the foe is facing. The Super Sheet will usually do around 10% of damage. The attack can also be used to shift the direction of a player who is trying to get back on the field. In this case, they will be turned around, and will instead jump back on air, rather than jump on the field.


====''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''====
====Super Jump Punch====
Although Dr. Mario is absent from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' as a playable character, data for Dr. Mario can be found, suggesting that he was [[List of Super Smash Bros. Brawl pre-release and unused content#Unused data|intended]] to be in the game in some form. Meanwhile, his ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' theme can be used as one of the songs that plays in the [[PictoChat]] and custom stages, as well as an arrangement of the "[[Chill]]" theme, which plays on [[Flat Zone 2]]. There is also a [[Sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|Sticker]] of Dr. Mario that depicts his artwork from the original ''Dr. Mario'' game.
{{main|SmashWiki:Super Jump Punch}}
The '''Super Jump Punch''' is a [[jump]]ing move [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], and Dr. Mario can perform in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]]. It is executed by pressing B + Up. When Dr. Mario performs the attack, [[coins]] fly out of the enemy, and the foe receives about 10% damage. Dr. Mario's version of the attack is exactly the same as Mario's, but it's more powerful. Also, the sound effect is different than the usual sound made when Mario grabs a coin.


====''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U''====
====Dr. Tornado====
[[File:Dr Mario SSB4 Artwork.png|thumb|left|Official artwork of Dr. Mario from ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U''.]]
{{main|SmashWiki:Mario Tornado#Dr. Tornado}}
{{main-wiki|SmashWiki|Dr. Mario (SSB4)}}
'''Dr. Tornado''' is [[Dr. Mario]]'s down special attack in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. The attack is executed by pressing Down + B.  
Dr. Mario appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'' as an unlockable fighter. Dr. Mario can be unlocked in the Nintendo 3DS version by first either completing [[smashwiki:Classic Mode (SSB4)|Classic Mode]] with Mario on at least 4.0 [[smashwiki:Intensity|intensity]] or playing 60 [[smashwiki:Versus Mode#In Super Smash Bros. 4|Smash matches]], then defeating Dr. Mario himself on [[Mushroomy Kingdom]]. Dr. Mario can be unlocked in the Wii U version by first either completing a [[smashwiki:Master Orders|Master Orders]] ticket with a difficulty level of Hard or higher or by playing 50 Smash matches, and then defeating Dr. Mario on [[Delfino Plaza]]. In addition to retaining his moveset, albeit with some mechanic modifications, the custom versions of Dr. Mario's neutral, side, and up special moves are shared with Mario, though the custom versions of Dr. Tornado are instead shared with [[Luigi]], owing to Mario having [[F.L.U.D.D.]] as his down special move since ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. Dr. Mario's [[Final Smash]], [[Doctor Finale]], is a variation of Mario's [[Mario Finale]] that uses giant [[Capsule|vitamin capsule]]s instead of giant, streaming Fireballs. Dr. Mario has also gained two new taunts, a new idle animation, a new entrance animation, and a new victory animation that replaces the [[smashwiki:Victory pose|victory pose]] he shared with Mario in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''. Like Mario, Dr. Mario is a middlewight close-range fighter. Unlike in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', Dr. Mario functions like a stronger, yet slower Mario due to multipliers being applied to his damage output and some of his attributes. Dr. Mario has the ability to [[Wall Jump]], unlike his previous appearance. Conversely, his mobility is lowered from Mario's attributes. These multipliers result in Dr. Mario being distinctly affected by passive [[equipment]] physics, in which he specifically possesses a +15 Attack value and a -50 Speed value; this allows Dr. Mario to KO opponents more easily than Mario, courtesy of a larger variety of finishing moves.
Dr. Tornado has the same effect as the [[Mario Tornado]], except that it is a little stronger. The special attack traps the victim into a tornado, punches them constantly, and then smashes them up into the air when the move is done. The attack can also very lightly pull someone near into the Tornado. Unlike Mario Tornado,
 
Dr. Tornado throws them in a random direction, rather than straight up. Dr. Mario is able to hover in the air when using this attack, by tapping rapidly the B Button while using it.
Dr. Mario's design is now a composition of his appearance as of ''Dr. Mario 64'' and his dark gray pants from ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', although with a few original changes from this game: his stethoscope has a slightly different color scheme, his pants are rolled up to his ankles, and his neck is longer due to the graphics, allowing him to wear a dress shirt and necktie under the labcoat rather than just a white shirt, and his tie is looser compared to his home series. To reflect this change, Dr. Mario can wear tie equipment to boost his defense stat instead of the overalls equipment his normal self uses. However, he also uses the gloves and shoes equipment for attack and speed like Mario does.

File:DrMarioSuperSheet-Melee.png|Dr. Mario's '''Super Sheet'''.
Dr. Mario appears as an unlockable fighter in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. Although he still functions as a stronger, yet slower clone of Mario, Dr. Mario has nevertheless been slightly de-cloned from his normal self in a few ways. His new back throw consists of him lifting the opponent on his shoulders and then powerfully throwing them away with a single arm, his idle pose and Super Sheet have updated animations, and his traction is slightly higher than Mario's. Like several other fighters, a number of Dr. Mario's standard attacks received nicknames: up smash is Ear, Nose, and Throat, neutral aerial is Dr. Kick, forward aerial is Dr. Punch, down aerial is CLEAR! (Bone Drill prior to version 2.0.0), and down throw is Hospital Bed.
File:DrMarioSuperJumpPunch-Melee.png|Dr. Mario's '''Super Jump Punch'''.
 
File:DrMarioDrTornado-Melee.png|Dr. Mario's '''Dr. Tornado'''.
Aside from these changes, Dr. Mario has received a number of noticeable improvements. His damage multiplier has increased from 1.12× to 1.175×, further bolstering his already high overall damage output. Dr. Mario has a new down aerial where he stomps his opponent with both feet, which is capable of [[smashwiki:meteor smash|meteor smash]]ing when connecting with his feet, which is a trait only Mario has since ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', and has a hitbox on his chest that launches the opponents away. His aforementioned back throw has higher [[smashwiki:Knockback|knockback]] that, when coupled with his higher overall damage output, makes it one of the strongest [[smashwiki:Back throw|back throws]] in the game.
</gallery></center>
 
For the Megavitamins move, the capsules are not only larger, but also gained a higher launching angle, increased [[smashwiki:Hitlag|hitlag]], decreased [[smashwiki:Lag#Ending lag|ending lag]], better [[smashwiki:Hitbox|hitbox]] placements and increased knockback. Altogether, these changes make them much more effective for camping and setting up combos at the comparatively minor cost of their ability to lock a downed opponent. Dr. Tornado gained a drastic increase to its damage output and knockback, which make it a viable finisher unlike in previous installments. In addition, it boasts improved utility, courtesy of its improved vertical recovery and its ability to grant damage-based armor during frames 2-9 when Dr. Mario uses it on the ground.
 
However, Dr. Mario's grounded and aerial mobility use a negative multiplier with an unspecified value: although his walking and running speeds are slightly faster and his jump is higher, his short hop and double jump are slightly lower and his already sluggish air speed is slightly slower. Aside from these issues, Dr. Mario's up tilt gained the same horizontal range reduction that Mario's acquired, and his grabbing ability is hampered by ''Ultimate''{{'}}s near-universal lag increase for grabs.
 
As with several other returning characters, Dr. Mario's victory theme, which is the orchestral arrangement of the level clear theme from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' (and is shared with Mario, [[Luigi]], [[Princess Peach|Peach]], and [[Princess Daisy|Daisy]]), has been slightly shortened and sped up compared to the previous installments.
 
Dr. Mario's Classic Mode route involves him fighting red-, yellow-, and blue-colored variants of different characters, as a reference to the [[Virus]]es from the [[Dr. Mario (series)|''Dr. Mario'' series]].

|''There's hardly any difference in the abilities of Mario and Dr. Mario, so choosing is largely a matter of taste. Dr. Mario is a tad slower due to his lack of exercise, but his Megavitamins pack a bit more punch than Mario's Fireballs. The capsules travel on a unique trajectory and make a distinct sound on impact.

While it may be hard to spot the contrasts, they do exist. For example, Dr. Mario's Super Sheet is longer and narrower than Mario's cape, and any opponents hit by Dr. Tornado will fly off in diverse directions.

==Trivia==
Dr. Mario also appears in the [[Club Nintendo]] comic "[[Süße Weihnachten]]" where he helps [[Bowser]] who suffers from stomachache.
*In an interview about the ''Super Mario'' series for the then-upcoming 30th anniversary, [[Shigeru Miyamoto]] implied that "Dr. Mario" was not a licensed doctor.<ref>{{cite|author=Ryckert, Dan|date=September 10, 2015|url=www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2012/09/24/miyamoto-tezuka-interview.aspx|title=Mario's Creators Answer Burning Questions About The Series|publisher=GameInformer|accessdate=June 5, 2024}}</ref> Despite this, in the background of the title screen of ''[[Dr. Mario: Miracle Cure]]'', a degree can be seen on the wall.


==References==
== Trivia ==
{{NIWA|SmashWiki=1}}
*Before even the first version of ''Dr. Mario'' was released, Mario and Luigi referred to each other as "Dr. Mario" and "Dr. Luigi" at one point on ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'', during the live-action segment "[[Defective Gadgetry]]".
<references/>
*One part of the ''[[Super Mario Adventures]]'' comic has Mario dressing up as a doctor. However, in this case, Mario is pretending to be psychiatrist instead of actually becoming a medical physician.
