{{quote|This is a mushroom! Grab these to recover HP.|In-game text|[[Super Paper Mario]]}}
'''Mushrooms''' are recurring items in the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]]. Their effect on the player character varies from game to game. They often share a design with [[Super Mushroom]]s from the [[Super Mario (series)|''Super Mario'' series]] and [[Dash Mushroom]]s from the [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'' series]].

They replace the [[Heart (item)|hearts]] in ''[[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic]]''. Mushrooms also turn [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], the [[Princess Peach|Princess]], and [[Toad]] back into their [[Super Mario (form)|Super forms]] if they are in their [[Small Mario|Small forms]], like a [[Super Mushroom]] in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', and fills the entire Life Gauge.
 
The Yoshi Challenge in ''Super Mario Advance'' replaces two mushrooms in each [[level]] with [[Yoshi's Egg|Yoshi Egg]]s.

==History==
===''Mario's Picross''===
===''Super Mario Bros. 2''===
One of the puzzles in ''[[Mario's Picross]]'' is of a Mushroom.
[[File:Mushroom smb2.png|frame|right]]
Mushrooms add an additional mark/heart to the [[Health Meter|life meter]], to a maximum of four. The meter then resets to two marks at the start of the following stage. Up to two are located in each stage, and are found only in specific [[Subspace]] locations within the stage.


The equivalent to the Mushrooms in ''[[Yume Kojo: Doki Doki Panic]]'' were masks.
===''Mario Clash''===
Mushrooms are power-ups in ''[[Mario Clash]]''. They initiate Fever Time, allowing any enemy to be defeated from a single hit and doubling the number of [[point]]s earned. A Mushroom appears only after defeating thirty target enemies. The effect of a Mushroom wears off when the stage is finished, or if Mario loses either a life or the [[Koopa Shell|shell]].

===''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars''===
[[File:SMRPG Mushroom.png|thumb|50px]]
In ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', a Mushroom restores 30 [[Heart Point|HP]] for one party member, and it has a red and white cap with an orange stem and no face. Mushrooms with faces are in [[Treasure chest|treasure box]]es, restoring all HP and [[Flower Point|FP]] if revealed. Mushrooms have two higher-tier varieties, including the [[Super Mushroom|Mid Mushroom]], which restores 80 HP, and the [[Ultra Mushroom|Max Mushroom]], which restores all HP. In the Japanese version, the Mid Mushroom and Max Mushroom are respectively known as Super Mushroom and Ultra Mushroom, which are the names used in later role-playing games. [[Poison Mushroom]]s look identical to Mushrooms, except they poison either a party member or enemy. The [[Mini Goomba]] [[Triplets]] sell specific [[Mushroom (Monstro Town)|Mushroom]]s in [[Monstro Town]] that turn the user into an immobile [[Mushroom (status effect)|Mushroom]], though they recover HP each turn.
[[File:SMRPG Mid Mushroom.png|frame|left]]
 
[[File:Max Mushroom1.PNG|frame|left]]
===''Mario Party'' series===
In ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', a basic Mushroom recovers 30 [[HP]] for one party member. This Mushroom had a red and white cap with an orange stem (and no face). The Mid Mushroom, as a result of also being more expensive, is that they recover 80 HP to one party member.  
:''For a list of probabilities of Double Dice Block rolls with Mushrooms, see [[Double Dice#Probabilities|Double Dice § Probabilities]].''
Mid Mushrooms differ in appearance from the regular Mushroom, having a green cap than a red one. The Max Mushroom, being the greatest one of them all, is about to recover all HP to one party member. They have a yellow cap, different from all other Mushrooms. The bad Mushroom, only found in [[Seaside Town]], does not recover HP and is used only in battle. When used, they poison an enemy of choice, but some enemies don't get poisoned, so it is not that useful. They have the same appearance as a regular Mushroom in the game. However, Mushrooms that are found in [[Treasure Box]]es recovers all HP and [[FP]] for Mario's entire party. These Mushrooms are used as soon as they are picked up. Additionally, these powerful Mushrooms have faces. Also, most Mushroom Treasure Chests restock with every selection of a certain area. A special type of Mushroom is sold by the [[Goombette]] [[Triplets]] at the shop in [[Monstro Town]]. These Mushrooms, apart from restoring 30 HP, also turn the user into a Mushroom during battle.
Mushrooms in the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]] are usually items that increase how many spaces the player can move. Similar items have appeared in games in which the regular Mushroom is not present, such as the [[Mega Mushroom]] in ''[[Mario Party 4]]'', the [[Twice Candy]] in ''[[Mario Party 8]]'', and the [[Double Dice|Double Dice Set]] in ''[[Mario Party DS]]''.
 
Many variants of the Mushroom have appeared in the ''Mario Party'' series alongside the normal variety, such as the golden [[Super Mushroom#Mario Party series|Super Mushroom]], which provides a stronger version of the regular Mushroom’s effect, the [[Cursed Mushroom]], which reduces a player's maximum roll on the [[Dice Block]], and the [[Reverse Mushroom]], which causes a player to move backward on their turn.
====''Mario Party''====
[[File:Mushroom Board Play MP1.png|frame|right]]
If the player lands a Mushroom on a [[Mushroom Space]] in ''[[Mario Party]]'', they can roll another Dice Block the same turn.
 
====''Mario Party 2''====
[[File:Mushroom MP2-3.png|frame|right]]
The Mushroom is an item in ''[[Mario Party 2]]''. It is determined to be [[Mario]]'s favorite item. It costs ten coins to buy at an [[Item Shop (Mario Party series)|Item Shop]]. It allows a player to roll two Dice Blocks instead of just one, and if the player rolls the same number twice, they earn 10 coins, or 20 coins for double 7s. Mushrooms are also in the [[minigame]] [[Rakin' 'em In]], where they have to be pushed into their baskets for points while avoiding [[Poison Mushroom|Poison Purple Mushroom]]s.
 
====''Mario Party 3''====
The Mushroom returns in ''[[Mario Party 3]]'', now costing only five coins to purchase at [[Item Shop (Mario Party series)#Mario Party 3|Toad's Trading Post]]. The only difference with a Mushroom from the previous game is its ability to cure curses brought upon by Poison Mushrooms, Reverse Mushrooms, or [[Bowser]].
 
====''Mario Party 5''====
[[File:Mushroom Capsule.jpg|thumb|left|The Mushroom Capsule in ''Mario Party 5'']]
The Mushroom reappears in the form of a [[Orb|capsule]] as the '''Mushroom Capsule''' in ''[[Mario Party 5]]''. A Mushroom Capsule can be obtained from a [[capsule machine]] like other capsules and placed on a space either for free or used on the player directly for five coins. The Mushroom from the capsule retains its effects from ''Mario Party 2'', except rolling double 7s is worth 30 coins. A Mushroom is an Item Card in [[Card Party]] mode and similarly allows the player to roll two Dice Blocks, but without any reward for rolling the same number twice; the Dice Bonus Last Card Event allows the affected player to roll three dice upon using a Mushroom. A Mushroom also appears in [[Super Duel Mode]] randomly and improves both the control and speed of the player's machine temporarily.
 
====''Mario Party 6''====
The Mushroom Capsule returns in ''[[Mario Party 6]]'' with the title '''Mushroom Orb''', which works identically as before but cannot be put on spaces. It can be either obtained from [[Orb Space]]s or bought from an [[Orb hut]] for usually five coins.


A [[Mushroom (status effect)|particular status ailment]] turns characters into a Mushroom. While a Mushroom, the character recovers health every turn, but is completely immobilized. Like the Mushrooms from the Treasure Chest, they also have faces on them.
====''Mario Party Advance''====
The player uses up one Mushroom per turn to roll the Dice Block in ''[[Mario Party Advance]]''. Mushrooms can be obtained by winning minigames, with the reward usually being three of them, or sometimes six. If the player has no Mushrooms left, the gameplay ends.


===''Mario & Luigi'' series===
====''Mario Party 7''====
====''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga====
The Mushroom Orb returns in ''[[Mario Party 7]]'', where it is mostly the same as in ''Mario Party 6''. A difference is that in Team Battle, both team members roll two Dice Blocks numbered 1-5, and the team can earn 50 coins should all four Dice Blocks land on the same number. Toad and [[Toadette]] also have their own signature Orb, the [[Triple 'Shroom Orb]], which functions like the Mushroom Orb for three turns.
Mushrooms are the basic item for healing in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. They are the cheapest item found in stores and the first item obtained. Regular Mushrooms restore 25 HP, Super Mushrooms restore 50 HP, Ultra mushrooms restore 120 HP, and Max Mushrooms restore all HP. Five special [[Golden Mushroom]]s can also be found in the game; the rare item restores all HP and BP. [[Badge|Shroom Badges]] that can be purchased at certain shops will increase Mario and Luigi's attack according to the number of Mushrooms in their inventory.


A unique mushroom called the [[Invincishroom]] can be found only when the player has beaten the high score of a certain mini game. The player cannot use it, however, because Mario eats it as soon as he and Luigi win it, causing him to become very sick and slowly turn into a [[bean]]. Luigi cures Mario by giving him a certain plant, which is found in [[Guffawha Ruins]].
====''Mario Party 9''====
Mushrooms are in the [[Fungi Frenzy (minigame)|Fungi Frenzy]] minigame of ''[[Mario Party 9]]'', where each panel contains either one, two, or three of them.


====''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time====
====''Mario Party 10''====
Mushrooms act in the same manner as in ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga''; they restore HP for one member. A regular Mushroom heals 20HP, a Super Mushroom heals 40HP, a Ultra Mushroom heals 80HP, and a Max Mushroom heals all HP. In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', there are also items called [[Mushroom Drop]]s, which will every single member on the team, very much like the [[Nut]]s in ''Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga''. Unlike Max Mushroom and Max Nuts, however, there is nothing more powerful than Ultra Drops. Shroom Badges make a return, but with a different effect: they now increase the healing effects of a Mushroom.
Mushrooms are featured in the minigame [[Movin' Mushrooms]] in ''[[Mario Party 10]]'', where a team gains a point if it falls into a cart.


[[Shroobs]], the main enemies in this game, bears a resemblance to Mushrooms. They have the same mushroom shape and spots, and they even live on a planet shaped like a mushroom.
====''Mario Party Superstars''====
Mushrooms return as items in ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]''. They cost three coins to purchase at an item shop. Their original effect has been inherited by the [[Double Dice]], with their function now being to add five spaces to the player's roll, similar to the effects of a [[Dash Mushroom]] and [[Golden Dash Mushroom]] in ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'', ''[[Mario Party: Star Rush]]'', ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]'', and ''[[Super Mario Party]]''.


====''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story''====
====''Super Mario Party Jamboree''====
Mushrooms return, but Mushroom Drops were replaced in favor of the original ''Mario & Luigi'' series Nuts. Mushrooms acted in the same manner as in the two preceding games. Mushrooms in this game healed 30HP, Super Mushrooms healed 60HP, Ultra Mushrooms 120HP, and Max Mushrooms healed 240HP instead of all HP like the previous installments did.
[[File:SMPJ Mushroom.png|thumb|left|100px|A Mushroom as it appears in ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'']]
Mushrooms return in ''[[Super Mario Party Jamboree]]'' with the same role as in ''Mario Party Superstars''. The game adds the [[Mushroom Tickets]] item, which is the equivalent of having two, three, or four Mushrooms in one's inventory. A player can choose a Mushroom as their starting item in Pro Rules.


Also, there was a [[Clothing]] item called the Mushroom Glove, which would have a random mushroom be consumed every turn to the bro. that has the glove.
===''Mario Tennis'' series===
Mushrooms appear in the [[Nintendo 64]] version of ''[[Mario Tennis (Nintendo 64)|Mario Tennis]]'' and its sequel, ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]''. They are usable during an Item Battle match and are obtainable by hitting the ball into an [[Item Box]] over the net. Mushrooms make players run faster, but in ''Mario Power Tennis'', they also return shrunken players to regular size. ''[[Mario Tennis Open]]'' features tennis gear for [[Mii]]s based on a Mushroom. A Mushroom is the emblem of the [[Mushroom Cup]] for all the previously mentioned games.

|title=Mushroom
In ''Paper Mario'', mushrooms act like healing items, just like the other Mario RPG games. Several variations of mushrooms could be found, such as the [[Volt Shroom]] or the [[Life Shroom]]. Recipes can also be made for other types of Mushrooms by combining certain ingredients together by Tayce T.

====''Paper Mario''====
Mushrooms are healing items in ''[[Paper Mario]]'', restoring 5 HP upon use. Several varieties also appear, such as [[Volt Mushroom|Volt Shroom]]s and [[Life Mushroom (Paper Mario series)|Life Shroom]]s. Mushrooms are also recipe ingredients and can be combined with other items to form different ingredients.


====''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''====
====''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''====
[[File:MushroomTTYD.png|left|thumb]]
Mushrooms retain their role as items in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', but they can now also heal partners. The same Mushroom varieties return, in addition to [[Slow Mushroom]]s. [[Punio]] and [[Petuni]] often eat Mushrooms and even give one to Mario and Peach during the ending as a present for them to enjoy on their way home. In addition, the [[Excess Express]] is said to serve mushroom dishes.
Mushrooms return in the Paper Mario sequel, ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. They have the same manner in healing as in the prequel. Yet now that Mario's partners have HP, mushrooms can restore a partner's HP also. The many variations of Mushrooms from the prequel return, with the addition to the [[Slow Shroom]]. Small creatures named [[Puni]]es commonly eat Mushrooms, shown by brother and sister [[Punio]] and [[Petuni]]. At the end of the game, Punio and Petuni give both Mario & Peach a Mushroom to enjoy on their boat ride home.


====''Super Paper Mario''====
====''Super Paper Mario''====
''[[Super Paper Mario]]'' was a platformer RPG game so Mushrooms cannot be bought in shops unlike the preceding games. Instead, they are found out of [[Question Block|? Blocks]] and heal ten HP upon contact. Replacing them is the [[Shroom Shake]].
Mushrooms work differently in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. They appear from [[? Block]]s and restore ten HP upon contact, as well as give 1000 [[point]]s. They have a carry-on counterpart named [[Shroom Shake]].
 
====''Paper Mario: Sticker Star''====
[[File:MushroomPMSS.png|frame]]
Mushrooms appear as [[sticker]]s in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]''. They restore 20 HP, though it can be upped to 30 if one presses {{button|3ds|A}} at the right time. The item has two more effective varieties, including [[Shiny Mushroom]]s, which restore 40 or 60 HP, and the [[Flashy Mushroom]], which restores 80 or 99 HP. There are also [[Big 1UP]] and [[Big Shiny 1UP]] stickers, which restore 10 or 15 HP for ten turns, respectively. [[Poison Mushroom]]s also return, [[Poison (status effect)|poisoning]] Mario as usual. Mushrooms appear in several levels and can be bought from [[Decalburg]] and [[Whammino Mountain]]. It is #79 within the [[Sticker Museum]].
 
====''Paper Mario: Color Splash''====
Mushrooms are repurposed as [[Battle Card (Paper Mario: Color Splash)|card]]s in ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]''. They use up red paint when colored in, restore some HP when used, and can be bought at [[Prisma Cardware]] for 20 coins. Mushroom cards also have two more effective varieties, Big Mushroom and Mega Mushroom cards.


====''Paper Mario: The Origami King''====
{{Quote|Who likes Mushrooms? ME!|Toad|Paper Mario: The Origami King}}
Mushrooms are healing items in ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'', now recovering 50 HP, and are featured in papercraft form. Mushrooms have both [[Shiny]] and Flashy counterparts, which restore 100 and 200 HP, respectively. They occupy one of attack slot in battle. A Mushroom can be found in [[? Block]]s, becoming available at [[Toad Town]]'s item shop after being found, as well as with the Shiny and Flashy variations. Mushrooms can also be bought at [[Overlook Tower]] and [[Big Sho' Theater]]. There are also [[Mushroom 3-Pack]]s and [[Mushroom 6-Pack]]s, bulk items that can be bought in stores for a cheaper price than Mushrooms and similarly have Shiny variants. It is possible to hold up to 99 Mushrooms and use them outside of battle, except at [[Scuffle Island]] or while riding down [[Eddy River]]. When fighting the [[Paper Macho Shy Guy]]s in the [[Fire Vellumental Cave]], a [[Fire Vellumental]] statue will burn a Mushroom if one tries to use it.

Mushrooms are the cheapest item found in stores. They have more effective variations, including [[Super Mushroom]]s, [[Ultra Mushroom]]s, and [[Max Mushroom]]s. There is also the rare [[Golden Mushroom (crownless)|Golden Mushroom]]s, which restores all HP and BP. There are Shroom [[Badge]]s and Shroom [[List of clothing in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga|clothing]] that affect Mario and Luigi's stats depending on how many Mushrooms they have. There is also a mushroom titled the [[Invincishroom]], which Mario eats during the plot, slowly becoming a [[bean]] until Luigi gives him [[Crabbie Grass]].

Mushrooms return as healing items in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and its [[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey|remake]], now restoring 30 HP. They also retain their more effective Super Mushroom, Ultra Mushroom, and Max Mushroom variations. Bowser can use Mushrooms during battles by acquiring them from either [[Jailgoon]]s, [[Broque Monsieur]], [[Trashure]]s, [[Dark Trashure]]s, or [[Naplock]]s. He can also collect and use giant Mushrooms (originally called '''Refreshrooms''') in [[Giant Bowser|giant battles]], which recover half of his Health Meter. There is a unique [[List of clothing in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story|clothing]] item titled Mushroom Glove, causing the wearer to sometimes use a random mushroom in their turn.

====''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team''====
[[File:M&LDT Mushroom.png|frame|right]]
Mushrooms are healing items in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', returning alongside their Super Mushroom, Ultra Mushroom, and Max Mushroom varieties. Mushrooms restore 30 HP, like before. Using Shroom EXP converts the value of HP healed from using Mushrooms during battle to EXP at the end, but with a 50% bonus, with Mushrooms adding 45 EXP. [[Giant Luigi]] can use the [[Bros. Attack]] [[Rhythm Mushroom]] to have Mario throw several large mushrooms that Giant Luigi can eat to heal.
 
A number of enemies have Mushrooms appear during certain attacks, mixed in with normal attacks. The player should avoid [[counterattack]]ing  Mushrooms, as Mushrooms heal the target. [[Popple]] may sometimes kick a Mushroom among other items at Mario or Luigi. [[Lakitu]] and [[Lakitu R]] may sometimes throw a Mushroom instead of a [[Spiny Egg]]. A mushroom can appear among the eggs that the [[Zeekeeper]] and [[Zeekeeper X]] drop. While not a mix-up for an attack, Mushrooms appear in the second-to-last phase of [[Giant Bowser|Bowser]]'s battle in [[Dreamy Neo Bowser Castle]] as well as [[Bowser X]]'s equivalent battle for Bowser or Giant Luigi to pick up.
 
[[Corporal Paraplonk]] and [[Corporal Paraplonk X]] use Mushrooms to heal the other members of the [[Elite Trio]] and the [[Elite Trio X]] in their respective boss battles.
 
====''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam''====
Mushrooms and their three varieties return in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'', working the same as before.
 
===''Mario Golf: World Tour''===
Mushrooms are usable item shots in ''[[Mario Golf: World Tour]]'' that make the ball roll much farther upon landing. Mushrooms are also the tee markers of [[Toad Highlands]]. Models of Mushrooms are used on trophies for Castle Club tournaments and the lampposts of the building's exterior. Mushrooms are red on regional tournament trophies, with spots corresponding to the trophy color, and are depicted with crowns and colored like the rest of the trophy completely on world tournament trophies.
 
===''Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle''===
Mushrooms are used as healing items between battles in ''[[Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle]]''. They restore each active party member's HP by 70, though it is possible to upgrade the amount from the skill tree for Mario only.
 
===''WarioWare: Get It Together!''===
A yellow Mushroom with Wario's mustache is one of the obstacles that [[Wario]] spits out during the [[microgame]] [[Inside the Storm]] in ''[[WarioWare: Get It Together]]''.

{{navboxes|
*In ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'', it is interesting to note that the Mushrooms had no faces, and their cap's coloring was reversed. They had red spots on a white cap, making the Mushrooms look much like [[Toad]] or the [[Super Mushroom]]s from the [[NES]] version of ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''.
*In the 2010 version of [[Nintendo Monopoly]], one of the tokens is a Mushroom.

Mushrooms are recurring items in the Super Mario franchise. Their effect on the player character varies from game to game. They often share a design with Super Mushrooms from the Super Mario series and Dash Mushrooms from the Mario Kart series.

History[edit]

Super Mario Bros. 2 / Super Mario Advance[edit]

Screenshot from Super Mario Bros. 2 of a Mushroom in Subspace

Mushrooms[1] also known as Sub-space Mushrooms[2] (or Subspace Mushrooms),[3] are found in specific areas of Subspace in Super Mario Bros. 2 and add an extra hit point to the Life Gauge, allowing up to four (five in the remake). They replace the hearts in Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic. Mushrooms also turn Mario, Luigi, the Princess, and Toad back into their Super forms if they are in their Small forms, like a Super Mushroom in Super Mario Bros., and fills the entire Life Gauge.

The Yoshi Challenge in Super Mario Advance replaces two mushrooms in each level with Yoshi Eggs.

Mario's Picross[edit]

One of the puzzles in Mario's Picross is of a Mushroom.

Mario Clash[edit]

Mushrooms are power-ups in Mario Clash. They initiate Fever Time, allowing any enemy to be defeated from a single hit and doubling the number of points earned. A Mushroom appears only after defeating thirty target enemies. The effect of a Mushroom wears off when the stage is finished, or if Mario loses either a life or the shell.

Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars[edit]

In Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, a Mushroom restores 30 HP for one party member, and it has a red and white cap with an orange stem and no face. Mushrooms with faces are in treasure boxes, restoring all HP and FP if revealed. Mushrooms have two higher-tier varieties, including the Mid Mushroom, which restores 80 HP, and the Max Mushroom, which restores all HP. In the Japanese version, the Mid Mushroom and Max Mushroom are respectively known as Super Mushroom and Ultra Mushroom, which are the names used in later role-playing games. Poison Mushrooms look identical to Mushrooms, except they poison either a party member or enemy. The Mini Goomba Triplets sell specific Mushrooms in Monstro Town that turn the user into an immobile Mushroom, though they recover HP each turn.

Mario Party series[edit]

For a list of probabilities of Double Dice Block rolls with Mushrooms, see Double Dice § Probabilities.

Mushrooms in the Mario Party series are usually items that increase how many spaces the player can move. Similar items have appeared in games in which the regular Mushroom is not present, such as the Mega Mushroom in Mario Party 4, the Twice Candy in Mario Party 8, and the Double Dice Set in Mario Party DS.

Many variants of the Mushroom have appeared in the Mario Party series alongside the normal variety, such as the golden Super Mushroom, which provides a stronger version of the regular Mushroom’s effect, the Cursed Mushroom, which reduces a player's maximum roll on the Dice Block, and the Reverse Mushroom, which causes a player to move backward on their turn.

Mario Party[edit]

Mushroom Board Play MP1.png

If the player lands a Mushroom on a Mushroom Space in Mario Party, they can roll another Dice Block the same turn.

Mario Party 2[edit]

A Mushroom from Mario Party 2 and Mario Party 3

The Mushroom is an item in Mario Party 2. It is determined to be Mario's favorite item. It costs ten coins to buy at an Item Shop. It allows a player to roll two Dice Blocks instead of just one, and if the player rolls the same number twice, they earn 10 coins, or 20 coins for double 7s. Mushrooms are also in the minigame Rakin' 'em In, where they have to be pushed into their baskets for points while avoiding Poison Purple Mushrooms.

Mario Party 3[edit]

The Mushroom returns in Mario Party 3, now costing only five coins to purchase at Toad's Trading Post. The only difference with a Mushroom from the previous game is its ability to cure curses brought upon by Poison Mushrooms, Reverse Mushrooms, or Bowser.

Mario Party 5[edit]

Mushroom Capsule
The Mushroom Capsule in Mario Party 5

The Mushroom reappears in the form of a capsule as the Mushroom Capsule in Mario Party 5. A Mushroom Capsule can be obtained from a capsule machine like other capsules and placed on a space either for free or used on the player directly for five coins. The Mushroom from the capsule retains its effects from Mario Party 2, except rolling double 7s is worth 30 coins. A Mushroom is an Item Card in Card Party mode and similarly allows the player to roll two Dice Blocks, but without any reward for rolling the same number twice; the Dice Bonus Last Card Event allows the affected player to roll three dice upon using a Mushroom. A Mushroom also appears in Super Duel Mode randomly and improves both the control and speed of the player's machine temporarily.

Mario Party 6[edit]

The Mushroom Capsule returns in Mario Party 6 with the title Mushroom Orb, which works identically as before but cannot be put on spaces. It can be either obtained from Orb Spaces or bought from an Orb hut for usually five coins.

Mario Party Advance[edit]

The player uses up one Mushroom per turn to roll the Dice Block in Mario Party Advance. Mushrooms can be obtained by winning minigames, with the reward usually being three of them, or sometimes six. If the player has no Mushrooms left, the gameplay ends.

Mario Party 7[edit]

The Mushroom Orb returns in Mario Party 7, where it is mostly the same as in Mario Party 6. A difference is that in Team Battle, both team members roll two Dice Blocks numbered 1-5, and the team can earn 50 coins should all four Dice Blocks land on the same number. Toad and Toadette also have their own signature Orb, the Triple 'Shroom Orb, which functions like the Mushroom Orb for three turns.

Mario Party 9[edit]

Mushrooms are in the Fungi Frenzy minigame of Mario Party 9, where each panel contains either one, two, or three of them.

Mario Party 10[edit]

Mushrooms are featured in the minigame Movin' Mushrooms in Mario Party 10, where a team gains a point if it falls into a cart.

Mario Party Superstars[edit]

Mushrooms return as items in Mario Party Superstars. They cost three coins to purchase at an item shop. Their original effect has been inherited by the Double Dice, with their function now being to add five spaces to the player's roll, similar to the effects of a Dash Mushroom and Golden Dash Mushroom in Mario Party: Island Tour, Mario Party: Star Rush, Mario Party: The Top 100, and Super Mario Party.

Super Mario Party Jamboree[edit]

Mushroom

Mushrooms return in Super Mario Party Jamboree with the same role as in Mario Party Superstars. The game adds the Mushroom Tickets item, which is the equivalent of having two, three, or four Mushrooms in one's inventory. A player can choose a Mushroom as their starting item in Pro Rules.

Mario Tennis series[edit]

Mushrooms appear in the Nintendo 64 version of Mario Tennis and its sequel, Mario Power Tennis. They are usable during an Item Battle match and are obtainable by hitting the ball into an Item Box over the net. Mushrooms make players run faster, but in Mario Power Tennis, they also return shrunken players to regular size. Mario Tennis Open features tennis gear for Miis based on a Mushroom. A Mushroom is the emblem of the Mushroom Cup for all the previously mentioned games.

Paper Mario series[edit]

The Thousand-Year Door description A feel-good mushroom. Replenishes 5 HP.

Paper Mario[edit]

Mushrooms are healing items in Paper Mario, restoring 5 HP upon use. Several varieties also appear, such as Volt Shrooms and Life Shrooms. Mushrooms are also recipe ingredients and can be combined with other items to form different ingredients.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door[edit]

Mushrooms retain their role as items in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, but they can now also heal partners. The same Mushroom varieties return, in addition to Slow Mushrooms. Punio and Petuni often eat Mushrooms and even give one to Mario and Peach during the ending as a present for them to enjoy on their way home. In addition, the Excess Express is said to serve mushroom dishes.

Super Paper Mario[edit]

Mushrooms work differently in Super Paper Mario. They appear from ? Blocks and restore ten HP upon contact, as well as give 1000 points. They have a carry-on counterpart named Shroom Shake.

Paper Mario: Sticker Star[edit]

The Mushroom sticker from Paper Mario: Sticker Star

Mushrooms appear as stickers in Paper Mario: Sticker Star. They restore 20 HP, though it can be upped to 30 if one presses A Button at the right time. The item has two more effective varieties, including Shiny Mushrooms, which restore 40 or 60 HP, and the Flashy Mushroom, which restores 80 or 99 HP. There are also Big 1UP and Big Shiny 1UP stickers, which restore 10 or 15 HP for ten turns, respectively. Poison Mushrooms also return, poisoning Mario as usual. Mushrooms appear in several levels and can be bought from Decalburg and Whammino Mountain. It is #79 within the Sticker Museum.

Paper Mario: Color Splash[edit]

Mushrooms are repurposed as cards in Paper Mario: Color Splash. They use up red paint when colored in, restore some HP when used, and can be bought at Prisma Cardware for 20 coins. Mushroom cards also have two more effective varieties, Big Mushroom and Mega Mushroom cards.

Paper Mario: The Origami King[edit]

“Who likes Mushrooms? ME!”
Toad, Paper Mario: The Origami King

Mushrooms are healing items in Paper Mario: The Origami King, now recovering 50 HP, and are featured in papercraft form. Mushrooms have both Shiny and Flashy counterparts, which restore 100 and 200 HP, respectively. They occupy one of attack slot in battle. A Mushroom can be found in ? Blocks, becoming available at Toad Town's item shop after being found, as well as with the Shiny and Flashy variations. Mushrooms can also be bought at Overlook Tower and Big Sho' Theater. There are also Mushroom 3-Packs and Mushroom 6-Packs, bulk items that can be bought in stores for a cheaper price than Mushrooms and similarly have Shiny variants. It is possible to hold up to 99 Mushrooms and use them outside of battle, except at Scuffle Island or while riding down Eddy River. When fighting the Paper Macho Shy Guys in the Fire Vellumental Cave, a Fire Vellumental statue will burn a Mushroom if one tries to use it.

Mario & Luigi series[edit]

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga / Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions[edit]

Mushroom

Mushrooms are the most basic healing item in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, and they restore 25 HP. Their colors are reversed to white with red spots. Mushrooms are the cheapest item found in stores. They have more effective variations, including Super Mushrooms, Ultra Mushrooms, and Max Mushrooms. There is also the rare Golden Mushrooms, which restores all HP and BP. There are Shroom Badges and Shroom clothing that affect Mario and Luigi's stats depending on how many Mushrooms they have. There is also a mushroom titled the Invincishroom, which Mario eats during the plot, slowly becoming a bean until Luigi gives him Crabbie Grass.

In the remake, regular Mushrooms heal 30 HP instead and use their standard design like in other games of the Mario & Luigi series.

Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time[edit]

Mushrooms and their three more effective variations all return as healing items in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time. The game also adds Mushroom Drops, which heal every single member on the team. Shroom Badges return, except they now increase the healing effects of a Mushroom. The main villains, the Shroobs, are based on mushrooms, retaining the same shape and spots and even inhabiting a planet shaped like one.

Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story / Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey[edit]

Mushrooms return as healing items in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and its remake, now restoring 30 HP. They also retain their more effective Super Mushroom, Ultra Mushroom, and Max Mushroom variations. Bowser can use Mushrooms during battles by acquiring them from either Jailgoons, Broque Monsieur, Trashures, Dark Trashures, or Naplocks. He can also collect and use giant Mushrooms (originally called Refreshrooms) in giant battles, which recover half of his Health Meter. There is a unique clothing item titled Mushroom Glove, causing the wearer to sometimes use a random mushroom in their turn.

Mario & Luigi: Dream Team[edit]

Icon for the Mushrooms in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team

Mushrooms are healing items in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, returning alongside their Super Mushroom, Ultra Mushroom, and Max Mushroom varieties. Mushrooms restore 30 HP, like before. Using Shroom EXP converts the value of HP healed from using Mushrooms during battle to EXP at the end, but with a 50% bonus, with Mushrooms adding 45 EXP. Giant Luigi can use the Bros. Attack Rhythm Mushroom to have Mario throw several large mushrooms that Giant Luigi can eat to heal.

A number of enemies have Mushrooms appear during certain attacks, mixed in with normal attacks. The player should avoid counterattacking Mushrooms, as Mushrooms heal the target. Popple may sometimes kick a Mushroom among other items at Mario or Luigi. Lakitu and Lakitu R may sometimes throw a Mushroom instead of a Spiny Egg. A mushroom can appear among the eggs that the Zeekeeper and Zeekeeper X drop. While not a mix-up for an attack, Mushrooms appear in the second-to-last phase of Bowser's battle in Dreamy Neo Bowser Castle as well as Bowser X's equivalent battle for Bowser or Giant Luigi to pick up.

Corporal Paraplonk and Corporal Paraplonk X use Mushrooms to heal the other members of the Elite Trio and the Elite Trio X in their respective boss battles.

Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam[edit]

Mushrooms and their three varieties return in Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam, working the same as before.

Mario Golf: World Tour[edit]

Mushrooms are usable item shots in Mario Golf: World Tour that make the ball roll much farther upon landing. Mushrooms are also the tee markers of Toad Highlands. Models of Mushrooms are used on trophies for Castle Club tournaments and the lampposts of the building's exterior. Mushrooms are red on regional tournament trophies, with spots corresponding to the trophy color, and are depicted with crowns and colored like the rest of the trophy completely on world tournament trophies.

Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle[edit]

Mushrooms are used as healing items between battles in Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle. They restore each active party member's HP by 70, though it is possible to upgrade the amount from the skill tree for Mario only.

WarioWare: Get It Together![edit]

A yellow Mushroom with Wario's mustache is one of the obstacles that Wario spits out during the microgame Inside the Storm in WarioWare: Get It Together.
