| | '''{{wp|Pumpkin}}s''' occasionally have functional roles in [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'']] games. Within the games, they commonly take on the appearance of '''{{wp|jack-o'-lantern}}s''', a type of {{wp|Halloween}} decoration, and are consequently encountered in autumnal or spooky environments. The role pumpkins typically fulfill in the franchise is to release collectibles or grant points when destroyed. | ||

[[Jack O'Goomba]], an enemy type appearing in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', is a [[Goomba]] with a jack-o'-lantern mounted on its head. The pumpkin fully protects the Goomba from [[stomp]] attacks and allows the enemy to easily bounce back from one [[spin]] attack, though it shatters in the process. Regardless, the enemy can instantly be defeated with a [[Ground Pound]] or by touching it while in [[Rainbow Mario|Rainbow form]]. | [[Jack O'Goomba]], an enemy type appearing in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', is a [[Goomba]] with a jack-o'-lantern mounted on its head.

In ''[[WarioWare Gold]]'', | In the [[Pumpkin Panic]] minigame in ''[[WarioWare Gold]]'', [[Ashley]] can shoot magic at the [[mandrake]]s to turn them into pumpkins, then walk into them to knock away and destroy them. If there are multiple pumpkins in a line, Ashley can kick one pumpkin into another to cause a chain reaction; the first pumpkin in a row grants 100 points when destroyed, with the number of points earned per pumpkin increasing as more of them are destroyed in the chain. Pumpkins also produce purple orbs when destroyed, which help charge up Ashley's special ability—a torrent of magic that turns all mandrakes currently spawned on the play field into pumpkins. Ashley is required to kick pumpkins into the occasional large mandrake to defeat it. | ||

''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]'' features a large, blocky type of pumpkin in the course [[Upshroom Downshroom]]. Appearing in various sizes, these pumpkins are typically stacked on top of each other, acting as platforms and walls for both the player character and the enemies. In this game, the player character can destroy a pumpkin with a [[Ground Pound]], by jumping or [[Drill Mario|drilling]] into it from below, by smacking it with their trunk while in [[Elephant Mario|Elephant form]], or by throwing a [[Gamboo]] at it. In doing so, the pumpkin usually reveals something such as a group of [[coin]]s, a [[Talking Flower]], or, in one case, a [[Wonder Flower]]. At the end of the course, there are several pumpkins placed in staircase formation that can help the player character reach the top of the [[Goal Pole]]. | |||
During the course's [[Wonder Effect]] sequence, pumpkins become jack-o'-lanterns. In this instance, many of them are bounced into the air by moving [[Mushroom Platform]]s. The player can interact with them the same as with regular pumpkins, but throughout much of this sequence, they do not produce anything when destroyed, the only exceptions being the two jack-o'-lanterns to the sides of the [[Wonder Seed]], which release coins. If a bouncing jack-o'-lantern is destroyed, another is launched from below the course to replace it soon after. | |||
