'''Command Blocks''' (sometimes spelled in lowercase as '''command blocks''') are blocks in the [[Mario & Luigi (series)|''Mario & Luigi'']] series. They appear during battles, so [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Baby Mario]], [[Baby Luigi]], and [[Paper Mario (character)|Paper Mario]] can [[jump]] under or [[Bowser]] can [[punch]] under the block that they want to choose. The block they choose determines the [[List of moves|move]] they want to do.
'''Command Blocks''' (sometimes spelled in lowercase as '''command blocks''') are [[block]]s in the [[Mario & Luigi (series)|''Mario & Luigi'']] series. They appear during battles over the head of a player character, whenever they have a chance to act. The playable characters can choose which block to hit with {{button|pad}}, then select it using their button. [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Baby Mario]], [[Baby Luigi]], and [[Paper Mario (character)|Paper Mario]] [[jump]] into Command Blocks, while [[Bowser]] [[punch]]es Command Blocks. The block they choose determines the [[List of moves|move]] they want to do. Each Command Block has an icon representative of the move they are for.


In some games, Command Blocks can be disabled by certain enemies and bosses temporarily (like [[Popple]] and [[Boo]]s in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', and [[Kamek]] and [[Paper Kamek]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]''), or permanently for the rest of the battle, some examples being [[Shrowser]]'s battle in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', [[Thunder Sass]]'s battle in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'' (except the [[list of items|items]] Command Block and the hint Command Block if the player gets a [[Game Over]]), and [[Ludwig von Koopa|Ludwig]]'s battle in ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions''. In ''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam'', when Mario, Luigi, and Paper Mario are locked away in [[Twinsy Tropics Dungeon]], a team of [[Hammer Bro]]s confiscate the trio's Command Blocks to hinder their fighting capabilities. The three must defeat the Hammer Bros using a combination of [[First Strike]]s and counter attacks in order to [[Stuff Retrieval|regain the Command Blocks]].
While Command Blocks are primarily a representation of a menu, they are also items, which characters can create and give to one of the aforementioned characters to grant them a new ability. Two such instances occur: The [[Vacuum Block]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'' is a rare block that [[Broque Monsieur]] has, which he gives to Bowser. The [[Copy Block]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'' is created by [[Paper Toad]]s, who give it to Paper Mario.

In ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team'', if a Command Block is disabled for an entire battle, then it does not appear when the characters get to act. If a Command Block is temporarily disabled during a battle, it is greyed out and does not respond to being struck.


In volume 35 of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'' adapted from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', Luigi and Baby Luigi hit the [[flee]] Command Block to run away from a [[Snoozorb]], much to Mario's irritation, therefore breaking the [[fourth wall]].

Command Blocks as seen in the Guide from Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam
“Note the blocks that appeared above you. Use those fellows to pick what you will do!”
Toadsworth, Mario & Luigi: Dream Team

Command Blocks (sometimes spelled in lowercase as command blocks) are blocks in the Mario & Luigi series. They appear during battles over the head of a player character, whenever they have a chance to act. The playable characters can choose which block to hit with +Control Pad, then select it using their button. Mario, Luigi, Baby Mario, Baby Luigi, and Paper Mario jump into Command Blocks, while Bowser punches Command Blocks. The block they choose determines the move they want to do. Each Command Block has an icon representative of the move they are for.

While Command Blocks are primarily a representation of a menu, they are also items, which characters can create and give to one of the aforementioned characters to grant them a new ability. Two such instances occur: The Vacuum Block in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey is a rare block that Broque Monsieur has, which he gives to Bowser. The Copy Block in Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam is created by Paper Toads, who give it to Paper Mario.

In some games, Command Blocks can be disabled by certain enemies and bosses temporarily (like Popple and Boos in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions, and Kamek and Paper Kamek in Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam), or permanently for the rest of the battle, some examples being Shrowser's battle in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, Thunder Sass's battle in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team (except the items Command Block and the hint Command Block if the player gets a Game Over), and Ludwig's battle in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions. In Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam, when Mario, Luigi, and Paper Mario are locked away in Twinsy Tropics Dungeon, a team of Hammer Bros confiscate the trio's Command Blocks to hinder their fighting capabilities. The three must defeat the Hammer Bros using a combination of First Strikes and counter attacks in order to regain the Command Blocks. In Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, if a Command Block is disabled for an entire battle, then it does not appear when the characters get to act. If a Command Block is temporarily disabled during a battle, it is greyed out and does not respond to being struck.

In volume 35 of Super Mario-kun adapted from Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, Luigi and Baby Luigi hit the flee Command Block to run away from a Snoozorb, much to Mario's irritation, therefore breaking the fourth wall.
