| | '''Power Moons''' are collectible items in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''. Equivalent to the [[Power Star]]s in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' (and its [[Super Mario 64 DS|remake]]), ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' and [[Shine Sprite]]s in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', they can be found in the various kingdoms of the game and used to power the [[Odyssey]] in order to let Mario reach additional kingdoms.<ref>Gamespot. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=201&v=fXmsmnzhQUo Super Mario Odyssey: Donk City Gameplay With Kinda Funny | E3 2017 GameSpot Show ]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved June 22 2017.</ref> |
| '''Power Moons''', or simply '''Moons''', are collectible items in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''. Equivalent to the [[Power Star]]s in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' (and [[Super Mario 64 DS|its remake]]), ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', and [[Shine Sprite]]s in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', they can be found in the various kingdoms of the game and are used to power the [[Odyssey]], allowing [[Mario]] to reach additional kingdoms. | |
|
| |
|
| [[Moon Rock]]s are stated to be the raw form of the material that makes up Power Moons.<ref>{{cite|language=en|date=November 5, 2019|title=''[[The Art of Super Mario Odyssey]]''|page=301|publisher=Dark Horse Books|isbn=978-1-50671-375-5}}</ref> | | [[File:SMO-scrn-PowerMoons.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Image showing several different Power Moons.]] |
| | Gameplay-wise, they act mostly like the Power Stars and Shine Sprites in earlier titles, being the main collectible Mario needs to find to progress. Unlike these however, there are between 30 and 69 per kingdom<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=201&v=fXmsmnzhQUo</ref>, and completing them does not boot Mario out of the stage. |
|
| |
|
| ==History==
| | Larger variants called [[Multi Moon]]s also exist in the game. These count as three Power Moons in one, and can be attained by defeating bosses or clearing main story missions. |
| ===''Super Mario Odyssey''===
| |
| Compared to the main collectables in previous games, the number of Power Moons per kingdom varies much more significantly, each having between one and 104 Moons to collect. Additionally, due to their greatly increased quantity, Mario does not leave the area once he collects one. They can be obtained in a wide variety of ways, such as collecting a [[Key]], five [[Moon Shard]]s, a sequence of [[note]]s, planting [[Seed (Super Mario Odyssey)|Seeds]] in pots, through the [[Slots]] minigame, or talking to people. Each kingdom also has a unique Power Moon available in Crazy Cap, which can be bought for 100 coins. In the post-game, these can be bought in infinite supply, although they only count towards raising the global Power Moon count. When collected, Power Moons restore the player's [[Health Meter]], air meter (if swimming), and water (if a [[Gushen]] is captured). Afterwards, they are replaced with transparent replicas, similar to Power Stars and Shine Sprites. Touching them does not initiate a cutscene or add to the counter, but does have every other effect in addition to granting five [[coin]]s. Not all Power Moons can be recollected in such a manner, as NPCs that give a Power Moon through dialogue usually do not repeat that conversation or give out the Power Moon.
| |
| | |
| [[File:SMO-scrn-PowerMoons.jpg|thumb|left|260px|Image showing four different Power Moons, two in the Metro Kingdom and two in the Sand Kingdom.]]
| |
| A small number of Power Moons in each kingdom are found floating above a metallic [[Moon Pedestal]], or appear/land over the pedestal if they are based on a further condition. These Power Moons are the goal in some of the game's [[mission|objectives]]. They play a longer collection animation, and collecting them advances the kingdom's main story. Landing on the pedestal from the cutscene activates it, changing color to match the Power Moon and opening the path forward. Decorated clusters of three Power Moons, called [[Multi Moon]]s, are rewarded by defeating major bosses or clearing main story missions. These Power Moons, or at least the pedestals if the Power Moon has to appear first, project beams of light upward to help guide the player toward their goal. While this could be considered to just be an indicator of objectives, dialogue attributes the light to Power Moons.<ref>"Huh? The top of that tower is shining! But how could that be? Could it be a Power Moon?", Cappy during [[Atop the Highest Tower]]</ref>
| |
| | |
| ''Super Mario Odyssey''{{'}}s structure has each of the game's kingdoms undergo changes as objectives are completed in the kingdom, as well as certain events beyond it. As such, not every Power Moon can be obtained directly as the player arrives in a kingdom: some will only appear after a certain objective is clear, and it is possible for a Power Moon to be made temporarily unavailable as part of the story. A good example is the [[Cap Kingdom]]: while gameplay starts in this kingdom, Power Moons are only introduced in the following [[Cascade Kingdom]], so no Power Moons appear in the Cap Kingdom until the player returns. One specific group of Power Moons only appears in each kingdom after breaking the [[Moon Rock]] once the game is completed. These Power Moons have an icon in the list which indicates their origin, and their locations are revealed on the map automatically with yellow "X"s.
| |
| | |
| Three characters exist to help the player locate Power Moons they do not have yet. [[Talkatoo]] can reveal the names of up to three Power Moons at a time as a hint. [[Hint Toad]] and [[Uncle amiibo]] can mark the location of a Power Moon on the map with a blue "X", either through paying 50 coins to Hint Toad or scanning an [[amiibo]] for Uncle amiibo. Since Power Moons of the Moon Rock have their locations visible by default, the latter two characters have no interaction with them.. When one of these characters are consulted, their icon appears next to the Power Moon on the list, and disappears after the Power Moon has been collected.
| |
| | |
| The majority of the game's unlockables are locked behind the collection of Power Moons, some requiring a number of unique Power Moons and others that can be obtained through buying Power Moon copies at Crazy Cap in the post-game. At least 124 Power Moons are required to complete the main story (up to 462 can be collected prior to the final battle with [[Bowser]]). Collecting 250 Power Moons unlocks the [[Dark Side]], and collecting 500 Power Moons unlocks the [[Darker Side]]. Collecting all 880 Power Moons turns the Odyssey's sail into a golden color and unlocks a painting in the [[Moon Kingdom]]'s Wedding Hall, allowing the player to go through a harder version of the final boss fight sequence. Collecting 999 Power Moons (collecting every field moon is not required) will cause a large top hat to be placed on top of [[Peach's Castle]]. If [[Cappy]] is thrown on top of it, a special celebration will play out.
| |
| | |
| When Mario collects his first Power Moon in the [[Mushroom Kingdom (Super Mario Odyssey)|Mushroom Kingdom]], Cappy says that he did not know that Power Moons come in different shapes, suggesting that Power Moons and Power Stars are different forms of the same object. Additionally, the jingle that plays when a Power Moon is collected is a remixed version of the jingle that plays when Mario collects a Power Star in ''Super Mario 64'', although the original jingle plays instead for the Mushroom Kingdom Power Moons.
| |
| | |
| When Mario collects a Power Moon, he performs one of three variations of the same pose that change his right hand's gesture, all three of which are callbacks to three previous ''Super Mario'' titles:
| |
| *A victory sign pose, referencing ''Super Mario 64''
| |
| *An open palm, referencing ''Super Mario Sunshine''
| |
| *A closed fist, referencing ''Super Mario Galaxy''
| |
| | |
| If a Power Moon is collected in one kingdom, but put into the Odyssey in another, the Power Moon's color changes to match the kingdom color the Odyssey is currently in. However, this only happens post-game, as pre-final boss moons can only be put in the Odyssey in the same kingdom they are collected in.

| |
| In the [[Nintendo Switch]] and [[Nintendo 3DS]] versions of ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker (Nintendo Switch / Nintendo 3DS)|Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'', Power Moons are found at the end of the bonus levels [[Secret of the Inverted Pyramid]], [[Mine Cart Cascade Crusade]], [[Uptown, Downtown]], and [[Cookatiel's Sizzling Sprint]], which are based off of kingdoms from ''Super Mario Odyssey''. They function exactly the same as the [[Power Star]]s found in the regular levels.

| Power Moons feature a different color depending on the kingdom in which they are found. Their color also matches the color of the pole of the kingdom's [[Checkpoint Flag]].
