Editing Leaf pile

[[File:MKT leaf pile.jpg|thumb|Leaf piles in ''Mario Kart Tour'']]
'''Leaf piles''' are elements commonly found in autumn-themed stages within the ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong (franchise)|Donkey Kong]]'' franchises. Their most common role is to release an item when interacted with in a certain way.

==History==
===''Super Mario Galaxy''===
In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', leaf piles appear on the [[Gold Leaf Galaxy]]'s starting planet. When [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] [[spin]] on a leaf pile, it gives three [[Star Bit]]s or a single [[coin]].

===''Mario Kart'' series===
Leaf piles appear in the ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' course [[Wii Maple Treeway|Maple Treeway]], its remakes in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', and in the autumn variation of the ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' course [[Animal Crossing]]. They act similarly to [[crate]]s, disappearing when hit by an item or racer and dispensing [[Banana]]s, [[coin]]s, [[Dash Mushroom|Mushroom]]s and, occasionally, [[Super Star]]s. They reappear after a short amount of time, and remain in their usual locations during time trials, although they do not dispense any items. Unlike crates, leaf piles do not slow racers down when they hit them.

===''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze''===
Large leaf piles appear in the ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'' level [[Horn Top Hop]].<ref>Knight, Michael. ''Donkey Kong Country Returns'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 70. "''When you reach point 8, perform a Roll Attack to scatter the pile of leaves.''"</ref> The [[Kong]]s can stand and walk on top of them as on ground, but [[Roll Attack|rolling]] into one causes it to scatter, which most commonly releases an item such as a [[banana]] or a [[Banana Coin]]. One pile in particular has a horn buried in it that releases a [[Pointy Tucks]] and a [[Puzzle Piece (Donkey Kong Country series)|Puzzle Piece]] in an alternative fashion.
