A Bucket is an item used in Mario & Wario, Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and Paper Mario.

In Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, they only appear in a few levels of the game. As the name suggests, it is a hanging bucket hanging on the wall or ceiling. It is knocked down by throwing an egg at it. Usually coins pop out as they fall down onto the floor; or times they might contain enemies. Sometimes the player has to ride it across Lava or Water.

The mayor of Shiver City will give Mario an ordinary bucket in Paper Mario after the plumber gets the Scarf from Merle. Put it on a snowman in Shiver Snowfield to help open the doorway to Shiver Mountain and the Crystal Palace.

Super Smash Bros. Melee Trophy

(Notice: This Trophy refers to the bucket in Mario & Wario.) In Mario and Wario, an excellent game released only in Japan, this hidden item gets placed on Mario's head, rendering him sightless. The fairy Wanda then guides the helpless Mario past numerous obstacles to the goal. The M on the bucket becomes a W when turned upside down, signifying that Mario has fallen under Wario's wicked control.

Trivia

• In the beta version of Paper Mario, this item was called the Marvelous Bucket.
• In Kirby Super Star and its Nintendo DS remake, there is a treasure called Bucket, which is the exact same bucket found in Mario & Wario.
