Phony Ball
Phony Ball is the name of the Special Ball that Wario uses in Mario Superstar Baseball. While pitching, Wario is able to throw both a regular baseball and a clove of garlic, confusing the batter as to which one to hit.
If Wario is batting, he hits both a clove of garlic and a baseball, confusing the fielders as to which ball is real to catch. It is a direct copy of Waluigi's Liar Ball.
Mario Super Sluggers
In Mario Super Sluggers, the Phony Ball operates a bit differently. Instead of using garlic, Wario will throw two baseballs, with one of them being a fake. This could mess up batters real easily.
Trivia
- The player must obtain the Gnarly Garlic Power-Up in Challenge Mode of Mario Superstar Baseball before being able to use this move.
- In Mario Super Sluggers, if the player is playing with the vertical Wii Remote control scheme, the batter will always be aligned to hit the real baseball.
