- Not to be confused with Gold Mini Mario.
Template:Form-infobox Gold Mario and Silver Luigi[1] are forms debuting in New Super Mario Bros. 2, acquired by grabbing a Gold Flower. In this form, Mario can shoot big Gold Fireballs and Luigi can shoot big silver fireballs, defeating any enemy or breaking any block that is within a certain distance or any that they touch, turning them into coins. In addition, the shockwave will also empty out several non-brick blocks/brick blocks that are secretly containers.
In this form, the character becomes a glowing statue made of pure gold. In Luigi's case, he becomes a glowing statue made of pure silver. In both cases, the form resembles Mario's metal form since gold and silver were a type of metal. Silver Luigi was based on the brothers' ice form from Super Mario Galaxy. If Mario/Luigi reaches the Flagpole in this form, he'll receive a coin bonus. The higher the pole is grabbed, the more coins he'll receive. Gold Mario/Silver Luigi will revert into Fire Mario/Luigi upon clearing a stage, making it impossible to keep this power-up between levels. Gold Mario is able to defeat every enemy of the game, including Boos, Thwomps, and even Spiked Balls, rivaling the power of Hammer Mario. He can also defeat bosses, but they take more than one hit to be defeated.
