| Target | Mario |
Water Block is a move in Paper Mario. It can be learned by Sushie upon reaching Super Rank. At the cost of three FP Sushie will hop in front of Mario and envelop him in a block of water that looks similar to the blocks that can be smashed by Mario's hammer. While the block is in effect, Mario will take one less damage from normal attacks, and two less damage from fire-based attacks and Bob-omb explosions. However electric attacks, attacks that involve mashing A to finish the attack quicker (such as the Jungle Fuzzy's Leech Attack), and Bombshell Bill explosions will ignore the extra defense provided by Water Block. The block's duration will depend on the action command: the player must press 
as the red stars light up, and each successful input will add a turn to the Water Block, resulting in up to 4 turns. Reapplying the move while it is in effect will not extend its counter, but simply reset it.
In Super Mario-kun, volume 26, during a fight with Lava Piranha, Sushie uses this ability. As in the game, it serves as a shield.
