'''Stache''' is a a statistic in the ''Mario & Luigi'' RPG series, , similar to Luck in other RPGs. It gives Mario and Luigi better chances at getting a "Lucky" (Critical) hit 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.

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 false [[Millennium Star]], [[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. [[Chief Chilly]], after defeated, will even blame it on having a poor mustache.

According to [[Fracktail]] in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', Mario has a "level 5 mustache". The [[Yellow Apple]] found in [[The Overthere]] makes [[Princess Peach]] grow a mustache similar to Mario's.
