Flying Squirrel Mario

Template:Form-infobox Flying Squirrel Mario is a form introduced in the Wii U game New Super Mario Bros. U. When he grabs a Super Acorn, Mario can lightly glide in a similar way to Cape Mario and Raccoon Mario by holding down the jump button, and can also temporarily cling to walls, blocks and pipes. The Flying Squirrel form also allows the player to Spin Jump higher than normal. The heroes are also able to use a flying squirrel jump while gliding, which makes Mario soar up into the air, though he can no longer glide after doing this and slowly falls. This accomplished by shaking the Wii U GamePad, or by pressing or .

While Mario is Flying Squirrel Mario, he gets red puffy overalls, a grayish shirt and shoes, and a big red cap with two squirrel ears on it and a beige brim. On his back, he has a pair of grey membranes and a tail. This appearance seems to be based off of Raccoon Mario. Flying Squirrel Luigi has these changes, too, but uses a green cap and overalls.

The Flying Squirrel Toads have a cap colored according to their emblem color, with two bright stripes and squirrel ears. They also get a red handkerchief around their neck, gloves, squirrel-like fur, yellow or blue pants, grayish shoes, flying membranes, and a tail. Toads lose their vests becoming Flying Squirrel Toads.
