(There's another note. OG Splash Bros has Mario stop for the grab, Remake Splash Bros does not. Which means the transition for Super Splash Bros has to be changed, which motivated being more exact regarding the Super Attack.)

'''Splash Bros.''' is a [[Bros. Attack]] used by [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] in the game ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. The move costs four [[Bros. Points|BP]] on Modes 1 and 2, and three BP on Mode 3. Mario is the one who learns it. The move involves Mario jumping on Luigi, throwing him in the air, then Luigi jump's under Mario, grabs him, and they both do a Spin Jump (with a huge flip at the end) to slam into the attacked enemy. The buttons that must be pressed are {{button|gba|A}} to have Mario jump, {{button|gba|b}} to have Luigi leap under him, and {{button|gba|A}} again to slam the enemy.

==How To Do==
'''Splash Bros.''' is one of [[Mario]]'s [[Bros. Attack]]s in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]''. It is based off of the [[Spin Jump (Mario & Luigi series)|Spin Jump]]. The move costs four [[Bros. Points|BP]] on Modes 1 and 2, and three BP on Mode 3. The move involves Mario [[jump]]ing on [[Luigi]], so he bounces off while spinning. Then Mario swoops back down and stops for Luigi to jump and grab his legs, letting them Spin Jump. Lastly, they fly over the enemy, then flip around before slamming into a single enemy Mario first. The buttons that must be pressed are {{button|gba|A}} to have Mario jump off Luigi, {{button|gba|b}} to have Luigi grab onto Mario, and {{button|gba|A}} again to slam the enemy. This move acts as a jump attack, so if used on spiked enemies (like [[Sharpea]]s and [[Spiny|Spinies]]), Mario will be harmed.

<big>OR</big>
After successfully executing the attack twenty times, the [[Super Attack|Advanced]] version is learned. In the Advanced version, instead of jumping up to Mario, Luigi throws him in the air. Mario then spins very fast, drilling into the enemy as he lands. The commands are {{button|gba|A}} to make Mario jump off Luigi, {{button|gba|A}} again to align Mario above Luigi, {{button|gba|b}} to throw Mario in the air, and {{button|gba|A}} again to drill into the enemy. The move does less damage than the regular version against most enemies, but does double damage against spiked enemies like [[Gritty Goomba]]s and [[Pestnut]]s.


In ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'', instead of Modes, there is only the "Easy" and "Normal" difficulties to choose from, with the latter costing 4 BP and the former costing 6 BP to use. The controls are exactly like that of the original game, however Mario does not stop in place for Luigi to grab on. Instead of having an Advanced version, the Bros. learn a [[Super Attack]] named '''Super Splash Bros.''' It is similar to the original attack, but the animations and input timings differ. Mario jumps onto Luigi's shoulders, with {{button|3DS|A}} pressed as Mario lands. Mario hops off while spinning, then Luigi moves forward for Mario to jump from again, with a second press of the {{button|3DS|A}} button as Mario lands. This repeats a third time, but instead {{button|3DS|B}} is pressed to have Luigi throw Mario. Lastly the Bros. Attack ends by pressing {{button|3DS|A}} as soon as Mario comes crashing down on an enemy. Super Splash Bros. seems to have its mechanics reversed from the original version; it is stronger when used against non-spiked enemies as opposed to spiked ones but still retains immunity to damage from spikes.

Splash Bros. is one of Mario's Bros. Attacks in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions. It is based off of the Spin Jump. The move costs four BP on Modes 1 and 2, and three BP on Mode 3. The move involves Mario jumping on Luigi, so he bounces off while spinning. Then Mario swoops back down and stops for Luigi to jump and grab his legs, letting them Spin Jump. Lastly, they fly over the enemy, then flip around before slamming into a single enemy Mario first. The buttons that must be pressed are A Button to have Mario jump off Luigi, B Button to have Luigi grab onto Mario, and A Button again to slam the enemy. This move acts as a jump attack, so if used on spiked enemies (like Sharpeas and Spinies), Mario will be harmed.

After successfully executing the attack twenty times, the Advanced version is learned. In the Advanced version, instead of jumping up to Mario, Luigi throws him in the air. Mario then spins very fast, drilling into the enemy as he lands. The commands are A Button to make Mario jump off Luigi, A Button again to align Mario above Luigi, B Button to throw Mario in the air, and A Button again to drill into the enemy. The move does less damage than the regular version against most enemies, but does double damage against spiked enemies like Gritty Goombas and Pestnuts.

In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions, instead of Modes, there is only the "Easy" and "Normal" difficulties to choose from, with the latter costing 4 BP and the former costing 6 BP to use. The controls are exactly like that of the original game, however Mario does not stop in place for Luigi to grab on. Instead of having an Advanced version, the Bros. learn a Super Attack named Super Splash Bros. It is similar to the original attack, but the animations and input timings differ. Mario jumps onto Luigi's shoulders, with A Button pressed as Mario lands. Mario hops off while spinning, then Luigi moves forward for Mario to jump from again, with a second press of the A Button button as Mario lands. This repeats a third time, but instead B Button is pressed to have Luigi throw Mario. Lastly the Bros. Attack ends by pressing A Button as soon as Mario comes crashing down on an enemy. Super Splash Bros. seems to have its mechanics reversed from the original version; it is stronger when used against non-spiked enemies as opposed to spiked ones but still retains immunity to damage from spikes.
