A '''mustache''' (also called '''moustache''', and''' 'Stache''' in the [[Mario & Luigi (series)|''Mario & Luigi'' series]]) is a form of facial hair common in male adults such as [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Wario]], and [[Waluigi]]. Mario (and thus the palette swap Luigi) was originally given his mustache to clarify the borders of his nose<ref>[http://themushroomkingdom.net/mario_history.shtml#look The Mushroom Kingdom] (Accessed on 7-24-08)</ref>, while Wario and Waluigi's mustaches are just parodies of Mario and Luigi's and are therefore angular and unrealistic. Many other characters, like the (fake) [[Millennium Star]] impostor, [[Eldstar]], one of the [[Delfino Police]], and [[Toadsworth]], also have mustaches. Additionally, mustaches can be a source of pride, as demonstrated by the various mustachioed bosses of ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. In ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', they often insulted Mario, Luigi, and Wario for their supposedly inferior mustaches. For example, [[Goomboss]] set such store by mustaches that he mistook Luigi for Mario (based on the mustache similarities). [[Big Bob-omb]] seemed to regard mustaches as a source and sign of power.


In the ''Mario & Luigi'' series, the mustache, under the name "'Stache", acts as a statistic in the game. It gives Mario and Luigi better chances at getting a "Lucky" shot in battle, and gives discounts to items bought at shops. [[Baby Mario]] and [[Baby Luigi]] also get these stats in [[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]], though they don't have mustaches. Bowser's equivalent in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' is "Horn."

'''Stache''' ('''Horn''' for [[Bowser]]) is a unique statistic in the ''[[Mario & Luigi (series)|Mario & Luigi]]'' series, similar to Luck in other RPGs. It usually gives [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], Bowser, or [[Paper Mario (character)|Paper Mario]] better chances at getting a "Lucky" hit in battle, doubling the damage of their attacks.

[[Baby Mario]] and [[Baby Luigi]] also have this stat in ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time'', despite not having mustaches. In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', it affects the type of [[Bonus Card|scratch card]] the player gets after purchasing items. Since none of these features are present in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', the stat is used only for lucky hits in said game, while in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'', it increases the chances of enemies dropping items after battle in addition to its effect from the previous game. This stat can be increased through [[Level up#Mario & Luigi series|level up]]s (in ''Superstar Saga'' / ''+ Bowser's Minions'', ''Bowser's Inside Story'' / ''+ Bowser Jr.'s Journey'', ''Partners in Time'', ''Dream Team'', and ''Paper Jam''), [[Teehee Blend]]s and [[Teeheespresso]]s (only in ''Superstar Saga'' / ''+ Bowser's Minions''), and [[Bean|Stache/Flex Bean]]s (introduced in ''Dream Team'').


According to [[Fracktail]] in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', Mario has a "level 5 mustache".

Guide, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions

Stache (Horn for Bowser) is a unique statistic in the Mario & Luigi series, similar to Luck in other RPGs. It usually gives Mario, Luigi, Bowser, or Paper Mario better chances at getting a "Lucky" hit in battle, doubling the damage of their attacks. In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions, and Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, it gives discounts to items bought at shops (down to half their usual price) and lets the Mario Bros. sell items at higher prices (up to 99% increase). Baby Mario and Baby Luigi also have this stat in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, despite not having mustaches. In Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey, it affects the type of scratch card the player gets after purchasing items. Since none of these features are present in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, the stat is used only for lucky hits in said game, while in Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam, it increases the chances of enemies dropping items after battle in addition to its effect from the previous game. This stat can be increased through level ups (in Superstar Saga / + Bowser's Minions, Bowser's Inside Story / + Bowser Jr.'s Journey, Partners in Time, Dream Team, and Paper Jam), Teehee Blends and Teeheespressos (only in Superstar Saga / + Bowser's Minions), and Stache/Flex Beans (introduced in Dream Team).
