'''Hammer Mario''' is a form of [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' when they obtain a [[Hammer Suit]]. When they have this form, they look like [[Hammer Bros.]] and are able to throw [[hammer]]s. They also can resist most fire attacks when ducking and can defeat most enemies, even [[Bowser]]. They gain an infinite supply of hammers and throw their hammers at an arc just like [[Hammer Bros.]]. While the suit appears to thoroughly protect Mario or Luigi, it does not defend against the simplest of attacks and will be lost in one hit. Strangely, Hammer Mario cannot [[Slope Slide]].
'''Hammer Mario''',<ref>{{cite|title=''Nintendo Power'' Volume 13|page=42|language=en-us|publisher=Nintendo of America|date=June 1990}}.</ref><ref>{{cite|title=''Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3'' instruction booklet|page=27|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us|date=2003}}.</ref> also referred to as '''[[Hammer Bro]]ther Mario''',<ref>{{cite|title=''Nintendo Power'' Volume 10|page=56|date=January/February 1990|language=en-us|publisher=Nintendo of America}}</ref> is a form of [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] only seen in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and its [[Super Mario All-Stars|SNES]] and [[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3|Game Boy Advance]] remakes, gained when he wears a [[Hammer Suit]]. This form is not to be confused with Mario or Luigi wielding a hammer, with the difference being the infinite disposable supply of hammers and the black shell armor.
==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario Bros. 3'' / ''Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3''====
In this form, Mario and Luigi resemble a [[Hammer Bro]]ther and, like one, are able to throw an infinite supply of [[hammer]]s in a short upward arc (which can be lengthened or shortened with the {{button|nes|Pad}}). Hammers can defeat most enemies, even those that cannot be defeated with [[fireball]]s, such as the [[Angry Sun]], [[Buzzy Beetle]]s, [[Boo]]s, [[Bullet Bill]]s, [[Chain Chomp]]s, [[Dry Bones]], [[Fire Snake|Firesnake]]s, [[Hot Foot]]s, [[Lava Bubble|Podoboo]]s, [[Para-Beetle]]s, [[Stretch]]es, and [[Thwomp]]s; they can also defeat [[Boom Boom]] and [[Bowser]]. As such, this form can be considered a stronger version of the [[Fire Mario|Fire form]]. They cannot defeat [[Roto-Disc]]s, [[Jelectro]]s, [[Muncher]]s, or the [[Koopalings]], however. As with fireballs, only two hammers can be thrown at a time, but hammers can fly through ceilings, walls, and floors. Mario and Luigi can also block enemies' fireballs in this form by crouching, but they cannot [[slide]] down slopes. However, they can slide down a slope if they get a Hammer Suit while already sliding, though only in [[World 6-10]]'s bonus room.


Despite the official artwork depicting Hammer Mario with his normal complexion and outfit colors underneath, his [[Family Computer]] and [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] sprite depicts him with tan skin in levels, a white shirt, white shoes, and black overalls, while his 16-bit sprites depict him with a brown shirt and gray overalls.
This form is not to be confused with Mario or Luigi wielding a hammer, with the difference being the infinite supplies of hammers and the black shell armor. Hammer Mario can be considered as one of the strongest form in the game, since the hammers can defeat most enemies that usually cannot be defeated, such as [[Boo]]s, [[Stretch|Stretches]] and even [[Thwomp]]s.


''Super Mario Advance 4'' adds a new utility to this form: its hammers can break [[Rock Block]]s.
==Appearances==
===Super Mario Bros. 3===
In Super Mario Bros. 3, the hammer suit can be found in Iced Land. If you press B, Mario will throw a hammer.


====''Super Mario Maker'' / ''Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Super Mario Maker 2''====
===Super Mario 3D Land===
In ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', its [[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS|Nintendo 3DS version]], and ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', knocking on a [[Warp Door]] in the ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' theme may cause [[Weird Mushroom (item)|Weird Mario]] to appear in this form. In the latter game, [[Builder Mario]]'s hammer swing can break Hard Blocks (similar to the Rock Blocks in ''Super Mario Advance 4'') and defeat most usually unbeatable foes, like this form.
After a long time, Hammer Mario will return in [[Super Mario 3D Land]], although no artwork was released for it...yet.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
[[File:ReptilesintheRoseGarden6.jpg|thumb|200px|Mario and Luigi disguised as Sledge Brothers]]
*If Mario or Luigi beats a [[Koopaling]] while in this state, the king of the world will say "Hey, you! How about lending me your clothes? No dice?! What a drag."
*In the episode "[[Reptiles in the Rose Garden]]" in ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', Mario and Luigi wear [[Sledge Bro]]ther disguises that make them resemble the Hammer form, in an attempt to hijack the [[Airship|Doom Ship]], only for the disguises to end in failure from tricking the Sledge Brothers piloting the ship.
*When Hammer Mario ducks, he resembles a [[Buster Beetle]].
*In ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', Mario can throw hammers to attack similarly to the Hammer form when he [[capture]]s a Hammer Bro.
*Hammer Mario was confirmed to be in [[Super Mario 3D Land]].
*This is the only form from ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' that has yet to reappear in a later ''Super Mario'' game (barring reissues).
