In this form, the user is a golden {{wp|Maneki-neko}} statue of their Cat form holding a coin. [[Luigi]]'s Lucky Cat form is slightly different; he is shown raising his left paw instead of his right, unlike everyone else. The others' raised right paws are based on a gesture used to bring in wealth and good fortune, whereas Luigi's raised left paw is commonly associated with businesses and owners wanting to bring in customers. | In this form, the user is a golden {{wp|Maneki-neko}} statue of their Cat form holding a coin.

In Peach's case, her earrings are still blue and her red and blue jewels on her crown stay the same when she poses that pose. | ||
While similar to [[Tanooki Mario]]'s [[Statue Mario|Statue form]], Mario is [[Invincible Mario|invincible]], rather than merely invulnerable and ignored by enemies; he also earns [[Coin]]s while falling in this form. Mario cannot remain in this form indefinitely; he reverts to Cat Mario either if the player stops the ground pound, or its 12-second time limit expires. Lucky Cat Mario can defeat almost all normally invincible enemies, such as [[spiked roller]]s, [[Fuzzy|Fuzzies]], [[Thwomp]]s, [[Fuzzler]]s, and [[Rammerhead]]s, and instantly defeat enemies that usually take multiple hits. However, it cannot defeat [[Ka-thunk]]s, [[Big Ant Trooper]]s, or [[Charvaargh]]s, and it does not protect against [[Poison (obstacle)|poison]], [[lava]], [[Fuzzy Horde]]s, or being crushed. In ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury'', this form prevents Mario from [[roll]]ing in midair, since he cannot stop his Ground Pound. | While similar to [[Tanooki Mario]]'s [[Statue Mario|Statue form]], Mario is [[Invincible Mario|invincible]], rather than merely invulnerable and ignored by enemies; he also earns [[Coin]]s while falling in this form.
