==History==
Red and Green Peppers appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', and both of these, plus a new Blue Pepper appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''. In the [[Mario & Luigi (series)|''Mario & Luigi'']] series, they serve as stat boosters; Green Peppers [[DEF-Up|raise defense]] and [[Light-G|reduce weight]], Red Peppers [[POW-Up|raise attack]] and [[Heavy-G|weight]], and Blue Peppers [[SPD-Up|raise speed]]. In ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'', they only affect one character, but in ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time'', they affect all characters currently fighting. Also in the latter game, the gravity changes are removed.
===''Yoshi's Story''===
Peppers in ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'' are fruits generally disliked by [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshis]] due to their spicy properties. If a pepper is consumed by a Yoshi, it sticks its tongue out in disgust and loses a petal from its [[Health Meter#Yoshi's Story|Smile Meter]]. If the player Yoshi is [[Super Happy]] and performs a [[Ground Pound]] while a pepper is onscreen, the fruit turns into a single [[coin]], though the effect ends prematurely if a Yoshi eats a pepper while in this state. The Black Yoshi and White Yoshi seem to be fond of peppers, since they do not take damage from them.


Peppers also appears with the other fruit in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' at [[Delfino Plaza]]. If a Yoshi eats one, it turns purple, but a Yoshi never requires one to hatch out of its egg. It is also used to defeat [[King Boo (Super Mario Sunshine)|King Boo]] at the casino of [[Hotel Delfino]]. By throwing a pepper at his tongue, King Boo is stunned, allowing Mario to damage him with another fruit.
===''Super Mario Sunshine''===
Peppers in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' are among the types of the fruit located in [[Delfino Plaza]]. If a Yoshi eats one, it turns purple, allowing it to spit [[juice]] of the same color that turns enemies into forward-moving purple [[Yoshi Platform]]s. Peppers are the only fruit that Yoshis never ask for to hatch out of their [[Yoshi's Egg|egg]]s. Peppers have an essential role while [[Big Boo (character)|King Boo]] is being battled in that throwing a pepper at his tongue stuns him, allowing [[Mario]] to damage him with another fruit.


A different type of pepper called the [[Dash Pepper]] appears in the game ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' which, when eaten, allows Yoshi to run at an extraordinary speed. Peppers also made appearances in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'', but only in one episode.

History[edit]

Yoshi's Story[edit]

Peppers in Yoshi's Story are fruits generally disliked by Yoshis due to their spicy properties. If a pepper is consumed by a Yoshi, it sticks its tongue out in disgust and loses a petal from its Smile Meter. If the player Yoshi is Super Happy and performs a Ground Pound while a pepper is onscreen, the fruit turns into a single coin, though the effect ends prematurely if a Yoshi eats a pepper while in this state. The Black Yoshi and White Yoshi seem to be fond of peppers, since they do not take damage from them.

Super Mario Sunshine[edit]

Peppers in Super Mario Sunshine are among the types of the fruit located in Delfino Plaza. If a Yoshi eats one, it turns purple, allowing it to spit juice of the same color that turns enemies into forward-moving purple Yoshi Platforms. Peppers are the only fruit that Yoshis never ask for to hatch out of their eggs. Peppers have an essential role while King Boo is being battled in that throwing a pepper at his tongue stuns him, allowing Mario to damage him with another fruit.
