It is commonly purple, and in most appearances, coming into contact with it will cause the player to instantly lose a life or inflict damage, like with [[lava]].

In ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', the level [[Poison Pond]] takes place in a green toxic pond. However, it is harmless to [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]], just like water.

In ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'', a poisonous liquid appears quickly rising in [[Toxic Tower]]. If [[Rattly the Rattlesnake|Rattly]], [[Squawks the Parrot|Squawks]] or [[Squitter the Spider|Squitter]] touch the liquid, they take damage until they lose a life.

 

Also, in all three swamp levels ([[Barrel Bayou (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Barrel Bayou]], [[Krockhead Klamber (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Krockhead Klamber]], and [[Mudhole Marsh (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Mudhole Marsh]]), while the water is not shown as poisonous, Diddy and Dixie Kong nonetheless cannot swim in it and instantly lose a life.

In ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', poison appears in a [[Lily Pad Ride|secret area]] found within [[Delfino Plaza]]. In this area, Mario must ride on a leaf down the poison in order to collect eight [[Red Coin|red coin]]s. In this instance, touching the water is instantly fatal. Additionally, in certain episodes of [[Bianco Hills]], [[Ricco Harbor]], and [[Noki Bay]], the water is [[Goop#Slimy water|polluted]] and can damage Mario.

In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', poison appears as an obstacle for a small variety of galaxies.

 

Poison surrounds the [[Bubble Breeze Galaxy]]. Mario must navigate while in a bubble away from [[mine]]s, as steering into one pops his bubble and drops him into the poison.

 

In the mission [[Luigi's Purple Coins]] of [[Toy Time Galaxy]], Mario must carefully and cautiously collect a number of [[Purple Coin]]s on a pixel [[Luigi]]-shaped planet made up of disappearing and rotating platforms, with green poison in between replacing the lava from the pixel Mario planet.

In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', dark green-colored poison is found in [[Boo Moon Galaxy]] (in the [[Boo Moon Galaxy#Sinking Swamp|Sinking Swamp]]) and in [[Mario Squared Galaxy]].

Poison reappears in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', again in forest-themed levels. As a new trait, they can rise and drop in [[World 3-4 (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 3-4]]. [[Porcupuffer]]s are resistant to poison.

Poison makes its next appearance in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]''. The stages in which the hazard mainly appears are [[Piranha Creeper Creek]] and [[Deep Jungle Drift]].

Poison appears in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', where it can be found in the [[Sand Kingdom]], the [[Lost Kingdom]], and [[Bowser's Kingdom]]. Poison also appears in several sub-areas in various kingdoms. In Regular Mode, touching it instantly depletes the [[Health Meter]], but if the player uses Assist Mode, Mario will lose one wedge of health and float back in a bubble if he touches it. Mario can safely ride [[Jaxi]] over poison. In the [[Wooded Kingdom]], puddles of poison can be found on the ground, and touching one of the puddles causes Mario to lose a section of his [[Health Meter]]. Throwing [[Cappy]] at a puddle will cause some of it to go away, which can reveal invisible [[coin]]s.
