History

Super Mario Sunshine

Lily pads first appear in Super Mario Sunshine, appearing in some areas of Bianco Hills as well as the Lily Pad Ride secret area. To use one, Mario must jump on one, and then stand on the edge of the lily pad facing the direction he wishes to go. The lily pad will then begin to move forward, and will continue to do so until Mario walks back to the center of the lily pad, at which point it will gradually slow to a stop.

Super Mario Galaxy 2

Leaf Rafts reappear in Super Mario Galaxy 2 in the Starshine Beach Galaxy. They behave the same as they do in Super Mario Sunshine.

A Pianta in this galaxy opens his "Leaf Raft Shop" for business in the mission Climbing the Cloudy Tower, which is the only time they can be used. The player can use them to cross the large body of water in this galaxy without actually touching the water. This is essential in the aforementioned mission, where the player as Cloud Mario or Cloud Luigi must ride across the water using Leaf Rafts to successfully reach the large tower where the Power Star is located. They are similar to the leaf boats from Super Mario Sunshine.
