'''Dunk Hammer'''<ref>''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'' in-game guide</ref> is a [[Bros. Move|Bros. Action]] that appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and its [[Nintendo 3DS|3DS]] remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]''. In the former, this move is known as '''Luigi Dunk'''.<ref name="Manual">[http://i.imgur.com/Ce0M6tr.png ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' instruction manual, page 20.]</ref> It is taught by [[Cork and Cask]] in [[Chateau de Chucklehuck]] along with the [[Mini-Mario]] technique. Both of them are techniques passed down to Cork and Cask from generations past. When [[Mario]] whacks [[Luigi]] from behind with his [[hammer]], Luigi will be buried into the ground, unless the two are above certain surfaces such as metallic plating. Luigi's hat sticks out from the ground. While in this state Luigi can move underground, allowing him to pass under obstacles and jump into [[barrel]]s from beneath, though he cannot pass through some surfaces.
'''Luigi Dunk'''<ref name="Manual">[http://i.imgur.com/Ce0M6tr.png ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' instruction manual, page 20.]</ref> is a Bros. Action that only appears ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and its [[Nintendo 3DS|3DS]] remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]''. It is taught by [[Cork and Cask]] in [[Chateau de Chucklehuck]] along with the [[Mini-Mario]] technique.

While in this state Luigi can move underground, allowing him to pass under obstacles and jump into barrels from beneath, though he cannot pass through some surfaces.


If Luigi passes through an obstacle in which Mario cannot follow, like a metal gate, he will be separated from him. Luigi can also be used to find [[bean]]s hidden in underground spots marked with an "X", and also [[Bean Fruit]] and [[Beanstone]]s. Once Luigi has emerged from the ground, he cannot go underground again without Mario's help. If this is used over a [[Surfing Spot]], Luigi will be turned into a [[surfboard]] that Mario can use to surf across [[Oho Ocean]] to reach [[Joke's End]] later in the game. The in-battle equivalent to this move is [[Chopper Bros.]], and it is also used in the [[Advanced Command|advanced]] version of the [[Thunder Bros.]] [[Bros. Attack]]. If Mario surfaces Luigi under certain enemies and pop out of the ground in the overworld, the enemy will be launched into the air and fall back down [[Dizzy|stunned]], which allows the bros to either escape or [[First Strike]] them more easily.

[[File:MoleMario DreamTeam.png|thumb|250px|Mole Mario in action.]]
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', a nearly identical move called [[Mole Mario]] appears, which involves Mario being buried into the ground instead of Luigi.
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', Mario and Luigi switch roles and the move is a [[Bros. Move]] named '''Mole Mario'''. Mole Mario is taught by two [[Shelltop]]s working for [[Britta]] in [[Dozing Sands]] along with [[Mini-Mario]], which is used instead of Mole Mario if the move is attempted above hard surfaces. One of the Shelltops mentions they saw Mole Mario in a movie.


There are some tweaks compared to Dunk Hammer. Mario is fully underground, so his position is indicated by a pointing glove. Mole Mario cannot be used if Luigi is standing in the same space as Mario, or if Mario is standing over a ledge. The hammer swing has to hit Mario; it is possible for a wall or object to block the swing. Mario is not allowed to dig out from below enemies. With Mario underground, Luigi can still jump or use his Hammer, enabling him to use First Strikes with the Hammer. Mole Mario is additionally used to flip over panels in the overworld by having Mario pop up from below them, while no Bean Fruit, Beanstones, barrels or Surfing Spots appear. The hard surfaces that are used for Mini-Mario additionally serve as boundaries for the underground Mario.
