'''Lumas''' are [[Star (species)|star]] creatures that first appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. Unlike most Stars, they have a raindrop-like shape and come in many colors, with the most common one being yellow. They are much like [[Power Star]]s, but they are more circular and have the ability to talk. The Lumas are each very friendly and assist [[Mario]] during his quest. Lumas have the ability to transform, from minor planetoids to entire [[galaxy|galaxies]], and according to [[Rosalina]], some Lumas can even transform into Power Stars. They call Rosalina their "mama." Most of them make their home with her in the [[Comet Observatory]], and others live on [[Starship Mario]] following their leader [[Lubba]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''.

In ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', if the [[Co-Star Luma]] spins one, it emits three [[Star Bit]]s. | ||

Lumas appear with various different colors alongside Rosalina as a singular new fighter in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]''. They function as a team; whenever Rosalina attacks, the Luma also attacks, allowing for combo attacks and for attacking from afar if Luma is separated from Rosalina. Lumas have their own HP, and if they take enough damage, they get defeated. Lumas can also get defeated by being knocked off of the stage to the point where they cannot recover. After a few seconds, another Luma appears near Rosalina. If Rosalina gets KO'd, the Luma vanishes and a new one appears when Rosalina respawns. Lumas can attack even if Rosalina is stunned by other attacks such as grabbing, and their attacks depend on what input the player performs as Rosalina. By using their standard special attack, [[Luma Shot]], the Luma can be sent away from Rosalina to fight, and by using the move again it is called back to her. [[Kirby]]'s copy ability version of Luma Shot summons a Luma for the move, which instantly disappears after the move's completion. | Lumas appear with various different colors alongside Rosalina as a singular new fighter in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]''.
