Hammer Mario

Template:Form-infobox Hammer Mario is a form of Mario or Luigi in Super Mario Bros. 3 when he wears a Hammer Suit. When he has this form, he resembles Hammer Bros. and is able to throw hammers. He is also immune to fireballs when ducking and can defeat most enemies, even Bowser. He gains an infinite supply of hammers and throw his hammers at an arc just like Hammer Bros.. While the suit appears to thoroughly protect Mario or Luigi, it does not defend against the simplest of attacks and will be lost in one hit. Hammer Mario cannot Slope Slide.

This form is not to be confused with Mario or Luigi wielding a hammer, with the difference being the infinite supplies of hammers and the black shell armor. Hammer Mario can be consider as a stronger version of Fire Mario, since the hammers can defeat most enemies fireballs cannot, such as Buster Beetles, Buzzy Beetles, Boos, Dry Bones, Stretches, Podoboos, and even Thwomps.

If Mario or Luigi beats a Koopaling while in this state, the ruler of the world will say "Hey, you! How about lending me your clothes? No dice?! What a drag."
