Editing Squeaky Mallet

[[Image:MPT_SqueakyMallet.jpg|200px|right|thumb|The special move, '''Squeaky Mallet'''.]]
'''Squeaky Mallet''' is [[Luigi]]'s [[Offensive Power Shot]] in ''[[Mario Power Tennis (Nintendo GameCube)|Mario Power Tennis]]''. Luigi pulls out a huge [[Hammer]] similar to [[Mario]]'s [[Iron Hammer]] and hit the ball with great force, leaving a path of small green, yellow and pink stars. This will knock the opponent back about a quarter of the court and cause the opponent to lose whatever [[Power Shot]] they may have stored.

Although not as fast and powerful as Mario's Offensive Power Shot, it has better recovery time and is a bit more curved. The stun time after contact is also greater. However, on rare occasions, the ball could go out of bounds by this power shot, which would hinder Luigi more than help him.

The Hammer that Luigi wields may be a [[Mini-Mega Hammer]] from ''[[Mario Party 4]]'' with a star painted in the center instead of a [[Mushroom]]. The green and pink stars may also represent the [[Super Mega Mushroom]]s and [[Super Mini Mushroom]]s.

==Trivia==
*It is even more possible that Luigi's Hammer is a popular Japanese toy often called the "squeaky hammer" (or just "toy hammer") in the United States. The squeaky hammer is rather famous for often being an anime gag where it is [[wikipedia:hammerspace|pulled out of nowhere]] and crushes someone; strangely, its victim is often male with the attacker female.
*Even though he has a "squeaky hammer in this game in "Mario and Luigi partners in time Baby Luigi has an iron mallet given to him by a hammer bro as well as one to his brother.<br clear=all>

-'''Squeaky Mallet''' is [[Luigi]]'s [[Power Shot (Mario Tennis series)|Offensive Power Shot]] in ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'' and ''[[Mario Tennis: Power Tour]]''. Luigi pulls out a huge squeaky [[Hammer]] similar to [[Mario]]'s [[Iron Hammer (move)|Iron Hammer]] and hit the ball with great force, leaving a path of small green, yellow and pink stars. This shot returns as a Slice. Returning this Power Shot with anything other than a Defensive Power Shot will knock the opponent back about a quarter of the court, reverse the opponent's movement controls for about one second, and reduce the opponent's energy needed for Power shots, causing them to lose whatever [[Power Shot (Mario Tennis series)|Power Shot]] they may have stored and making them need more time to store up another Power Shot. If Luigi returns another power shot with the Squeaky Mallet, he will not suffer from any knockback, but other effects such as loss of Power Shot energy and secondary effects such as electrocution and control reversal will still apply.
-Although not as fast and powerful as Mario's Offensive Power Shot, it has better recovery time and is a bit more curved. The stun time after contact is also greater. However, if Luigi is trying to return a ball that is low and close to the net (i.e. drop shots), the ball could hit the net or go out of bounds by this power shot, which would hinder Luigi more than help him.
