Cloud Mario
Template:Diff Template:Form-infobox
Cloud Mario is a new, powered-up variation of Mario that appears in Super Mario Galaxy 2. The Fluffy Bluff Galaxy and Cloudy Court Galaxy make prominent use of Cloud Mario. After grabbing a Cloud Flower, Mario can create a cloud by spinning and can use it as a platform. However, Mario can only do this three times or he'll need to grab another Cloud Flower to refill the number of clouds he has. Like Bee Mario, when Cloud Mario touches water, he will return to regular Mario. Mario jumps farther and falls slower when powered up.
Cloud Mario also appears in the Puzzle Plank Galaxy, and is used to defeat the boss Bugaboom. In Throwback Galaxy, Cloud Mario is needed to collect five Silver Stars. In the Starshine Beach Galaxy, Cloud Mario is needed to climb to the top of the Cloudy Tower on the main planet. Cloud Mario's final appearance is in the Grandmaster Galaxy, and it is needed to navigate an electric maze.
