'''Mighty Meteor''' is a [[Bros. Attack]] that appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]''. This attack costs eight [[Bros. Point|SP]] to use in the original, and twenty BP (twenty-two BP on Easy) in the remake. It is obtained from [[Dr. Toadley]][[Dr. Toadley's intern|'s intern]] in [[Toadley Clinic]] after the three [[Star Cure]]s combine to make the [[Miracle Cure]]. After the Miracle Cure cures all infected [[Toad (species)|Toads]] from the [[blorbs]] from the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] and before Mario and Luigi leave the clinic, the intern will give Mario and Luigi all 10 Toadley Clinic [[Attack Piece]]s required to use this move.
 
When using this attack, [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] sends a huge meteorite up into the sky. The player must control one of the brothers with the {{button|ds|pad}} and hold down the corresponding button ({{button|ds|a}} for Mario, {{button|ds|b}} for Luigi) as it falls to reel back their [[hammer]], swinging it forward once the button is released. If the brother successfully hits the meteorite with their hammer, it crashes into the enemy to inflict damage and possibly [[POW-Down|lower the enemy's attack power]]. The meteorite then goes back to opposite brother, and the attack continues. If the brother fails to hit the meteorite before it hits the ground, the attack stops. This attack can hit enemies up to five times.
 
After successfully hitting the meteorite enough times, it bursts open and the Bros. receive a random item. The items are either an [[Ultra Mushroom]], a [[Max Nut]], a [[Star Candy]], or a [[1-Up Deluxe]]. The remake also includes the [[Ultrasyrup Jar]], [[Refreshing Herb]] and [[Max Syrup Jar]] items. This effect occurs even during boss fights [[the Gauntlet]], allowing Mario and Luigi to effectively use more items than they are allowed, and since Star Candy fully replenishes SP, as well as [[Heart Point|HP]], it is possible to attack and gain an item every turn, stopping only to regain SP with consumable items.


It is obtained from [[Doctor Toadley]] after the 3 [[Star Cure]]s combine to make the [[Miracle Cure]]. When using this attack, [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] sends a huge meteorite up into the sky. The player must control one of the brothers with the D-Pad and press the corresponding button when it falls. If the brother successfully pulls off this command, the meteorite crashes into enemy inflicting damage, then going back to the Bros. and the attack continues. If the brother fails, the attack stops. This attack costs eight [[SP]] to use. After Mario and Luigi destroy the [[Dark Star|Dark Star's]] blockade, Dr. Toadley's intern will give Mario and Luigi all 10 Clinic [[Attack Pieces]] required to use this move. This attack is very similar to the [[Smash Egg]] from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''.
This attack is very similar to the [[Smash Egg]] [[Bros. Item]] from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', except the player uses hammers to knock an object into the enemies instead of kicking.


If Mario and Luigi manage to get EXCELLENT, or if the Meteor defeats all enemies, then the brothers will receive an item (just like the Smash Egg from the prequel). The items are either an [[Ultra Mushroom]], a [[Nut|Max Nut]], a [[Star Candy]], or a [[1-Up Deluxe]].
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', the meteor is now a 3D model that lacks the "?" icon and explodes into confetti when the attack ends successfully. The Bros. Attack also plays the last few notes of the classic level complete theme from the original ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' when it reveals an item. It also only hits enemies up to four times instead of five.

Mighty Meteor is a Bros. Attack that appears in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey. This attack costs eight SP to use in the original, and twenty BP (twenty-two BP on Easy) in the remake. It is obtained from Dr. Toadley's intern in Toadley Clinic after the three Star Cures combine to make the Miracle Cure. After the Miracle Cure cures all infected Toads from the blorbs from the Mushroom Kingdom and before Mario and Luigi leave the clinic, the intern will give Mario and Luigi all 10 Toadley Clinic Attack Pieces required to use this move.

When using this attack, Mario or Luigi sends a huge meteorite up into the sky. The player must control one of the brothers with the +Control Pad and hold down the corresponding button (A Button for Mario, B Button for Luigi) as it falls to reel back their hammer, swinging it forward once the button is released. If the brother successfully hits the meteorite with their hammer, it crashes into the enemy to inflict damage and possibly lower the enemy's attack power. The meteorite then goes back to opposite brother, and the attack continues. If the brother fails to hit the meteorite before it hits the ground, the attack stops. This attack can hit enemies up to five times.

After successfully hitting the meteorite enough times, it bursts open and the Bros. receive a random item. The items are either an Ultra Mushroom, a Max Nut, a Star Candy, or a 1-Up Deluxe. The remake also includes the Ultrasyrup Jar, Refreshing Herb and Max Syrup Jar items. This effect occurs even during boss fights the Gauntlet, allowing Mario and Luigi to effectively use more items than they are allowed, and since Star Candy fully replenishes SP, as well as HP, it is possible to attack and gain an item every turn, stopping only to regain SP with consumable items.

This attack is very similar to the Smash Egg Bros. Item from Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, except the player uses hammers to knock an object into the enemies instead of kicking.

In Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey, the meteor is now a 3D model that lacks the "?" icon and explodes into confetti when the attack ends successfully. The Bros. Attack also plays the last few notes of the classic level complete theme from the original Super Mario Bros. when it reveals an item. It also only hits enemies up to four times instead of five.
