'''Sumo Bros.''' (or '''Sumo Brothers''') are a type of [[Koopa (species)|Koopa]] with similarities to [[Sledge Bro]] and [[Chargin' Chuck]]. They pound their foot (a sumo movement known as {{wp|Glossary of sumo terms#shiko|shiko}}) to create thunderbolts that traverse floors and then explode shortly after. Sumo Bros. first appeared in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. Like [[Hammer Bro]]s., they are often found in pairs.
The '''Sumo Bro''' (or '''Sumo Brother''') is a type of [[Koopa (species)|Koopa]] with a similar anatomy to [[Boom Boom]] that appear as enemies to [[Mario]]. Their first appearance is in ''[[Super Mario World]]'' as somewhat uncommon enemies that can rain down fire on Mario's head by stomping.

[[File:SumoBros.png|thumb|200px|left|[[Mario]] avoiding two Sumo Brothers in ''Super Mario World''.]]
In ''Super Mario World'', Sumo Brothers are large, orange enemies with beady eyes and black shells that stand on top of floating rows of blocks, occasionally squinting their eyes before stomping to send a downward spark that generates a wall of fire upon hitting solid ground. Because of a spike on their heads, Sumo Brothers cannot be jumped on (though the player can safely bounce off of them with a [[Spin Jump]] or [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]), and they are also fireproof (likely due to their [[Buzzy Beetle]]-esque shells) and immune to being eaten by Yoshi. Defeating them with a [[Shell Toss|thrown shell]] or some other enemy spat out by Yoshi, a [[Cape Mario|cape swipe]], or contact with a player made invincible by a [[Super Star]] gives only 100 points. However, if the player defeats them by hitting the blocks they are standing on from below, they are granted 200 points.

In ''Super Mario World'', Sumo Brothers are large and orange in color and wear black shells. They also have a spike on top of their heads, meaning [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] will be injured if they jump on one. They stand on top of blocks and attack Mario by stomping their foot (the sumo movement known as {{wp|Glossary of sumo terms#shiko|shiko}}), which causes a spark to drop below; this spark ignites when it hits the ground, making a wall of fire. A Sumo Brother can only be defeated by throwing a [[Green Shell|Shell]] at them, by hitting them with a cape as [[Cape Mario|Caped Mario]] or by touching them with Mario when he is powered-up by a [[Super Star]]. Hitting the block they are standing on from below also works but is more difficult than other means due to the fires caused by their lightning-stomp attack.
The ''Super Mario World'' artwork of the Sumo Brothers lacks the spike on their heads, while their plastrons are disconnected from their carapaces in a similar way to [[Bowser]] and the [[Koopalings]]. This is likely due to this design being used in early sprites.<ref>{{cite|author=TCRF|title=[[tcrf:Development:Super Mario World (SNES)/Sprites#z-mario-4 2|Development:Super Mario World (SNES)/Sprites § z-mario-4]]|publisher=The Cutting Room Floor|accessdate=November 15, 2020}}</ref>

[[File:NSMBU Sumo Bro Screenshot.png|thumb|A Sumo Bro in ''New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe'']]
[[File:NSMBU Sumo Bro Screenshot.png|thumb|left|A Sumo Bro attacking Mario in ''New Super Mario Bros. U''.]]
Sumo Bros. return in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' and its expansion, ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', with some differences. They are no longer immune to [[fireball]]s, they no longer squint their eyes before stomping, they sometimes stomp twice in a row (with a quick change in stance before the second stomp), and their sparks now cause quick but low electric waves to spread in opposite directions rather than generating a large, tall wall of fire (allowing the player to simply leap over the electric waves rather than avoid an entire area for a short while), though the spread of their attack still has the same short range, and the spark does not spread out upon striking some surfaces, like [[Screwtop Lift]]s. Defeating Sumo Bros. by any means, like hitting the ground from under them, [[fireball]]s, [[Ice Ball|freezing]] then [[Ground Pound|ground pound]]ing them, throwing frozen enemies at them, or touching them while rendered invincible by a [[Super Star]], now yields 200 points. Because of their size, however, they cannot be picked up when frozen. Ice Balls can also be used to neutralize both the sparks and the shockwaves of the Sumo Bros.
After many years of absence, Sumo Bros. return in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', with the same abilities that they had in ''Super Mario World'', except that they make electric waves instead of fire waves. Their only appearance is in the level, [[Screwtop Tower]], and players can defeat them by hitting the platforms that they are standing on from below. They can also be defeated with [[Ice Ball|ice ball]]s, but cannot be picked up.


In ''New Super Mario Bros. U'', Sumo Bros. only appear in [[Screwtop Tower]]. This level, which does not appear to have a boss of any sort on top of it when seen on the map, features four of them, excluding one Sumo Bro. present in the boss room of that tower in the place of [[Boom Boom]]. Upon being enhanced by [[Kamek|Magikoopa]]'s powers, this individual, now known as [[Boss Sumo Bro]], doubles in size, gaining a pair of {{wp|Glossary of sumo terms#tsuna|tsuna}} and the ability to jump, with every stomp causing an immobilizing earthquake and sending electric shockwaves that travel through the entire floor rather than just a short distance. Much like his original form, however, Boss Sumo Bro is still susceptible to being jostled by strikes from underneath the platforms he stands on, with such attacks flipping him on his back and allowing players to jump on his vulnerable underside. Once defeated by three [[stomp]]s to his belly or 18 fireballs, Boss Sumo Bro., like all other tower bosses in the game, appears on top of the tower for a brief while before getting toppled over.
One Sumo Bro with a towel on his shoulders, known as [[Boss Sumo Bro]], appears as a boss in Screwtop Tower, replacing [[Boom Boom (species)|Boom Boom]]. [[Kamek|Magikoopa]]'s magic has made him larger, and he now has the ability to jump. Unlike Boom Boom and Magikoopa, the Sumo Bro does not appear on top of the tower he guards.


In ''New Super Luigi U'', nine Sumo Bros. are faced in [[Sumo Bro Bridge]], while another five are encountered in [[Sumo Bro's Spinning Tower]] (the game's equivalent of Screwtop Tower), not counting the final Sumo Bro. in the boss room, which is transformed by Magikoopa into Boss Sumo Bro. like in ''New Super Mario Bros. U''.
In ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', Sumo Bros. reappear in [[Sumo Bro Bridge]] and [[Sumo Bro's Spinning Tower]], where the boss reappears as well.

A single Sumo Bro, known as a '''Fire Sumo''', appears in the [[Super Mario World (television series)|''Super Mario World'' television series]] episode "[[Mama Luigi]]". This Fire Sumo appears to attack [[Luigi]] as he is exploring the abandoned [[Dome City]], stomping the ground beneath Luigi hard enough to cause it to crack, sending the plumber plummeting downward.

In ''[[Unjust Desserts]]'', some Sumo Brothers shrunken by [[Magikoopa]] are eaten by [[Yoshi]], and two confront Mario in a tunnel inside the dinosaur. Mario defeats the two by jumping out of the way when they charge at him, causing them to crash into each other and become knocked out. If Mario smashes a [[Blue Shell]] thrown at him by a [[Koopa Troopa]], the Sumo Brothers will awaken, but before they can renew their assault, they are sent tumbling down a passageway when the newly [[Winged Yoshi]] does a loop-the-loop. Later, some more Sumo Brothers try to attack Mario when he and [[Bowser]]'s minions are forcibly ejected from Yoshi's body, but because they are still tiny, they are scared off by the seemingly giant Yoshi stomping around.

In ''[[Brain Drain]]'', a Sumo Brother will swap minds with [[Wooster]] if he hears the static emanated by [[Iggy|Iggy Koopa]]'s [[Synapse Switcher]] play on a hot dog stand's radio. After unsuccessfully trying to attack both Mario and Luigi, the Sumo Brother storms off in a huff over its weak new body. Later in the book, Luigi can encounter some more Sumo Brothers if he decides to head out on his own to look for Iggy and if he manages to steal several cans of Fungus Up cola from the Synapse Switcher in the WMUSH radio station.

In ''[[Super Mario Party Jamboree]]'', Sumo Bros, along with Boss Sumo Bro, appear in the boss minigame [[Boss Sumo Bro Blitzers]]. They ride thunderclouds much like their appearance in ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'' and appear when Boss Sumo Bro's health is halfway depleted, posing with him. They hinder the players by stomping on their thunderclouds and sending down electric bolts that randomly switch the direction of one of the panels. Once Boss Sumo Bro is defeated, his thundercloud disappears, with the Sumo Bros flying down on theirs to try to help him, but get blown away due to their boss exploding like the other bosses in the game.

Sumo Bros. appear in ''[[Dr. Mario World]]'' as assistants. Their stage mode effect grants a chance five coins are rewarded upon clearing a stage regardless of whether the stage is cleared or uncleared, in which the chance of earning them is greater at higher levels. This effect does not activate upon clearing special stages or the Daily Booster. Their versus mode effect grants a chance that a rainbow capsule will appear in the first 20 seconds of a match, where the chance is greater at higher levels.
Sumo Bros. appear in ''[[Dr. Mario World]]'' as assistants. Their Stage Mode skill grants a 10% chance of earning five extra coins upon clearing a stage, and their Versus Mode skill grants a 20% chance that a rainbow capsule will appear in the first 20 seconds of a match. These percentages can be increased by obtaining duplicate Sumo Bros. in Staffing.

Sumo Bros., alongside a [[Boss Sumo Bro]], appear in ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'', where origami variants of them act as enemies. [[Olivia]] implies that the "bro" in their name is literal and likely related to their leader. During the battle with Boss Sumo Bro, two Sumo Bros. will accompany him on clouds, while four Sumo Bros. will land on the ground and each steal a panel: the ON panel, the Fire and Earth Vellumental Magic Circles, and the Double Attack panel. Mario must defeat the Sumo Bros. to recover the panels. Using either Vellumental Magic Circle will defeat them instantly (dealing 200 damage). After all four Sumo Bros. are defeated, the two on the clouds will land alongside Boss Sumo Bro, and will each steal a Magic Circle.

Sumo Bros. also appear as enemies in [[Origami Castle]]. Here, they will flip certain paths if they spot Mario, who must take cover behind a wall if the Sumo Bro. is looking his way.

==Notes==
==Trivia==
*The ''Super Mario World'' artwork of the Sumo Brothers lacks the spike on their heads, while their plastrons are disconnected from their carapaces in a similar way to [[Bowser]] and the [[Koopalings]]. However, the spike is present and the shell is a single connected piece in the game and in later appearances.
*Although they do not appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', and ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', their name is mistakenly applied to a related species of enemy known as [[Sledge Bro]]s.
*Although they do not appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', and ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', their name is mistakenly applied to a related species of enemy known as [[Sledge Bro]]s.
*In ''[[Nintendo Badge Arcade]]'', when the Arcade Bunny asks the player which character jumps a lot and resembles a sumo wrestler, one of the answers available is "Sumo Bro." (The answer is actually Mallo, as the question was asked upon starting the game on the day ''[[nwiki:Pushmo series|Pushmo]]'' badges were first made available.)
