Two stone walls in the Cascade Kingdom are setpieces with cutscenes involved. One stone wall contains the [[Power Moon]] for [[Our First Power Moon]]. The light from this Power Moon pores out of the rock. It is also holding the [[stone spire]] in place. Once the rock is destroyed and the [[Moon Pedestal]] underneath the rock is activated, the stone spire falls over. A second stone wall covers an entire cliffside. It is referred to as the '''Great Barrier'''. The cliff it is blocking contains a [[8-bit pipe]], which allows Mario to enter the wall as a sprite. Other sprites of Goombas, [[Brick Block]]s, [[? Block]]s and coins are in this wall, and Mario can exit through the top to reach the [[Fossil Falls Heights]]. Breaking this wall causes a special cutscene to play where the rocks fall away. There is a [[Big Chain Chomp]] near the Great Barrier to use against it, but when the Great Barrier is broken that Big Chain Chomp disappears forever. Neither stone wall appears for the rest of the game after being broken. | Two stone walls in the Cascade Kingdom are setpieces with cutscenes involved.

Stone walls are yellow rocks that in Super Mario Odyssey, found in the Cascade Kingdom and the Wooded Kingdom. There are two main variations, short barriers and large blocks. Stone walls have fossils embedded in them, including shell ones, but also sprites of Goombas, Spinies, and Hammer Bros based on their Super Mario Bros. appearances. Stone walls are indestructible for Mario, but Chain Chomps and T-Rexes can break them. Mario can capture either enemy then use them to break a stone wall. In addition, a captured Coin Coffer can shoot coins that break stone walls. In the Wooded Kingdom, if the fedora wearing T-Rex performs its charging attack into a stone wall, it will break but the T-Rex becomes stunned.
Two stone walls in the Cascade Kingdom are setpieces with cutscenes involved. One stone wall contains the Power Moon for Our First Power Moon. The light from this Power Moon pores out of the rock. It is also holding the stone spire in place. Once the rock is destroyed and the Moon Pedestal underneath the rock is activated, the stone spire falls over. A second stone wall covers an entire cliffside. It is referred to as the Great Barrier. The cliff it is blocking contains a 8-bit pipe, which allows Mario to enter the wall as a sprite. Other living sprites of Goombas, Brick Blocks, ? Blocks and coins are in this wall, and Mario can exit through the top to reach the Fossil Falls Heights. Breaking this wall causes a special cutscene to play where the rocks fall away. There is a Big Chain Chomp near the Great Barrier to use against it, but when the Great Barrier is broken that Big Chain Chomp disappears forever. Neither stone wall appears for the rest of the game after being broken.
