Superball Mario
Template:Form-infobox Superball Mario[1] is one of Mario's many forms. This form is only found in Super Mario Land. Mario becomes Superball Mario by grabbing a Superball Flower. There is no visual transformation, and even artwork (as seen to the right) depicts Mario as wearing his normal clothes. Superball Mario gains the ability to throw superballs at enemies, or use them to collect coins. This superficially resembles Fire Mario throwing fireballs; however, the balls do not bounce along the ground, but ricochet at right angles on surfaces. Also, only one superball can be onscreen at a time, and the player can only make Mario toss a superball again if it touches Mario, goes off-screen or is destroyed; the superball will also disappear after four seconds.
