The move is called '''Fireball''', the same name as Mario's move, but it floats while drifting around in a circle, rather than bounces. [[Kirby]] can use green fireballs if he copies Luigi's ability. | ||

Bouncing Fireball is affected by gravity with each successive bounce decaying in height, much like Mario's Fireball, although Luigi takes more time to fire it. In comparison, Ice Ball has a chance of freezing opponents and has longer range, but deals slightly less damage and travels slower. When Kirby copies Luigi, he will always remains with Luigi's default standard special, even if Luigi has a set custom move. | ||

It works similarly as Mario's Fireball item. When Luigi throws it either forward or backward, the green fireball splits into five and bounces around the course, which may ricochet off walls. The fireballs, when they hit any kart, including Luigi and his teammate's kart, cause the kart to spin out and the rear player is burned and momentarily stunned. If a green fireball hits a racer under the effects of a [[Heart (item)|heart]], the icon for the green fireball received is a red fireball. | ||

The Green Fireball, again simply known as the Fireball, is Luigi's [[Star Skill]] in ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]''. When pitched with, the Green Fireball surrounds the ball with green fire and throws it as a fastball with very high velocity and little movement. Compared to Mario's equivalent Fireball pitch, it has slightly lower velocity and greater movement, matching Luigi's specialties as a pitcher. When batted with, the Green Fireball also surrounds the ball with green fire, hitting it as a ground ball to the infield. Players who attempt to catch the ball while it is lit are burned, stunning them for a short time. | The Green Fireball, again simply known as the Fireball, is Luigi's [[Star Skill]] in ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]''.
