I've always been confused why the move is called Dunk in the remake of Superstar Saga. Mole makes a lot more sense to me. A dunk is defined as "to dip (bread or other food) into a drink or soup before eating it", and the brother is being shoved under solid ground. Even the basketball definition is weird, because the ball is being put in a hole far ''above'' ground. Plus, Mole and Mouse/Mini have good alliteration, and moves are always cooler when alliterated! I know the brother is being dunked underground, but dunking once again means liquid. | |||

Name
The in-game guide of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions calls this move "Dunk Hammer", so I think we should move this article to that name, especially with Mole Mario being merged here. Just one other thing I should mention, when I go on the "What links here" tab, it just comes up with a ton of other pages which don't link to this article outside of the template. Is there some kind of filter to stop this? Nightwicked Bowser

Why Dunk?
I've always been confused why the move is called Dunk in the remake of Superstar Saga. Mole makes a lot more sense to me. A dunk is defined as "to dip (bread or other food) into a drink or soup before eating it", and the brother is being shoved under solid ground. Even the basketball definition is weird, because the ball is being put in a hole far above ground. Plus, Mole and Mouse/Mini have good alliteration, and moves are always cooler when alliterated!
