'''Luigi Dunk'''<ref name="Manual">[http://i.imgur.com/Ce0M6tr.png ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' instruction manual, page 20.]</ref> is a Bros. Action that appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and its [[Nintendo 3DS|3DS]] remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]''. It is taught by [[Cork and Cask]] in [[Chateau de Chucklehuck]] along with the [[Mini-Mario]] technique. When [[Mario]] whacks [[Luigi]] from behind with his [[hammer]], Luigi will be buried into the ground, unless the two are above certain surfaces such as metallic plating. While in this state Luigi can move underground, allowing him to pass under obstacles and jump into barrels from beneath, though he cannot pass through some surfaces.

If Luigi passes through an obstacle in which Mario cannot follow, like a metal gate, he will be separated from him. Luigi can also be used to find [[bean]]s hidden in underground spots marked with an "X", and also [[Bean Fruit]] and [[Beanstone]]s. Once Luigi has emerged from the ground, he cannot go underground again without Mario's help. If this is used over a rectangular hole near bodies of water, Luigi will be turned into a surfboard that Mario can use to surf across [[Oho Ocean]] to reach [[Joke's End]] later in the game. The in-battle equivalent to this move is [[Chopper Bros.]], and it is also used in the [[Advanced Command|advanced]] version of the [[Thunder Bros.]] [[Bros. Attack]].

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', Mario and Luigi switch roles and the move is now known as '''Mole Mario''', but is functionally identical. It is taught by two [[Shelltop]]s working for [[Britta]] in [[Dozing Sands]] along with [[Mini-Mario]], which is used instead of Mole Mario if the move is attempted above hard ground.

*'''Instruction manual description:'''<ref name="Manual" /> ''"If Mario uses {{button|gba|B}} to pound Luigi with his Hammer, Luigi will get buried in the ground and become able to do things only a mole could do. When you want to return him aboveground, press {{button|gba|A}}."''

*'''Instruction manual description:''' ''"Luigi hits Mario with the hammer, sending him underground. In this state, Mario can do things like go under fences. Press {{button|3ds|A}} to return to the surface."''

*'''Instruction manual description:''' ''"Bury Luigi under the ground to allow him to get under obstacles. Press {{button|3ds|B}} to bring him to the surface again."''
