'''Magic Wands''' (or '''magic wands''')<ref>{{cite|language=en-us|date=1990|title=''Super Mario Bros. 3'' instruction booklet|page=5|publisher=Nintendo of America}}</ref> appear in the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]] as objects that are commonly held by the [[Koopalings]] and [[Magikoopa]]s. In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', Magic Wands are stolen from the [[Mushroom World]]'s [[kings]] and are used to transform them into various helpless creatures (which vary between the original version and the ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' reissues).  The Koopalings also use the wands to shoot harmful projectiles when encountered as bosses. [[Mario]] and/or [[Luigi]] have to retrieve them in the [[airship]] to restore the king and proceed to the next [[world]].

Magic Wands appear again in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', as the standard tools of the Koopalings with no relation to the kings, and have appeared in many other games in the same manner.

Seven Magic Wands in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' were stolen by the Koopalings, each from one of the seven kings, and used to turn the kings into other creatures; the Koopalings drop them upon defeat. In ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', they also bounce upwards upon being hit by attacks. In [[World-e]], despite the wands being returned to their rightful owners, [[Morton]], [[Lemmy]], and [[Ludwig]] were shown to wield them in battle again. The wands' standard projectiles in this game are "'''magic smoke rings''',"<ref>{{cite|language=en-us|publisher=Nintendo of America|author=Tilden, Gail, et al.|date=March/April 1990|title=''Nintendo Power'' Volume 11|page=11|quote=Avoid the magic smoke rings from his wand.}}</ref> whereas in subsequent games, the typical spells are instead magical fireballs that bear the Magikoopa insignia as a trail.

Magic Wands in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' are used by the seven Koopalings against Mario and other player characters. Like in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', each Koopaling can generate spells of varying speed and intensity, with the exception of [[Wendy]] and Lemmy, who utilize glowing [[ring (projectile)|ring]]s and [[magical ball|circus ball]]s, respectively.

====''New Super Mario Bros. U'' / ''New Super Luigi U'' / ''New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe''====

''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' has most of the Koopalings use different weapons. [[Larry]], [[Iggy]], and [[Ludwig]] continue to use Magic Wands. As usual, Larry shoots out blue fire with his wand. Iggy, as per usual, shoots out green fire with his wand, although he also fires red fireballs that, upon making contact with the magma in his cabin, summon [[Magmaargh]]s. Ludwig fires his regular blue fire spells in threes as usual. However, he also utilizes the wand to create two false duplicates of himself and the wand. The clones fire two magic blasts. Additionally, the orbs of the Magic Wands now have a purple glow to them whenever each of the three Koopalings is casting his fireballs.

 

''[[New Super Luigi U]]''{{'}}s boss battles are the same as in ''New Super Mario Bros. U'', so Magic Wands continue to appear. The same is true for the the enhanced port of both games, ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe]]''.

Magic Wands in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'' are used by the Koopalings to attack, including in the ''[[Super Mario World]]'' style, where the Koopalings originally did not use them. In the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', and ''Super Mario World'' styles, the Koopalings' Magic Wands are thrown into the air upon defeat. In the case of Morton, it is implied that Morton uses the wand while [[Ground Pound|ground-pounding]] to generate the shockwave.

 

In the ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' style exclusively, the spells that Iggy, Morton, Ludwig, [[Roy]], and Larry shoot out from their Magic Wands have fiery properties, and can be used to melt [[Frozen Coin]]s and light [[Bob-omb]]s. In the other styles, only the fireballs that Morton shoots from his wand have this property.

On ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'', King Koopa occasionally holds a similar magic scepter he calls the '''Koopa Scepter'''.

Magic Wands on ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' are used to make and solve tomfoolery, and some of the Koopas own Magic Wands themselves, as well as others by the kings of the Mushroom World.

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'', Roy, Wendy, Ludwig, and Larry also utilize their wands when their partner is taken down, with Mario, Luigi, and/or [[Paper Mario (character)|Paper Mario]] needing to counter the spell they cast.  Morton uses his wand to turn the player's [[Battle Card (Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam)|Battle Card]]s into cards that have Morton's face on them that inflict random effects that are unknown to the player.

In the mode ''[[Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser]]'', only Iggy and Ludwig utilize their wands. Iggy is able to use his wand for his [[Special Skill (Mario & Luigi series)|Special Skill]] Power Up, raising the POW of himself and his teammates. Ludwig is able to use the Special Skill Chain Shot.

In the mode ''[[Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', Wendy utilizes her wand to create duplicates as part of her First Officer [[Captain Command]], [[Doppelganger]]. In addition to using his wand for attacking, Ludwig uses his wand to fire magic attacks on enemies charging their Special Skill attacks to stop them from attacking as part of his First Officer Captain Command, [[Stop and Drop]].

The Koopalings use their wands in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', where they replace the [[hammer]] that is used in their up aerial attack, as well as their up special, [[Abandon Ship (move)|Abandon Ship]].
