*Mario has very powerful feet, which have trampled [[Enemies|innumerable enemies]], toppled [[Fortress]]es and even crushed [[Pagosu|spaceships]]. When timed correctly, he is able to do this 100 times in a row. | *Mario has very powerful feet, which have trampled [[Enemies|innumerable enemies]], toppled [[Fortress]]es and even crushed [[Pagosu|spaceships]].

*In ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', Mario is able to "transform" into other characters, which comes in handy, as he is a silent protagonist. This is not one of his attacks, however; he simply uses it to tell stories or explain situations to other characters. | *In ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', Mario is able to "transform" into other characters, which comes in handy, as he is a silent protagonist. This is not one of his attacks, however; he simply uses it to tell stories or explain situations to other characters. This is arguably a power, as it could just be an abstraction of Mario's communication with other characters. | ||

*Mario has been shown to possess superhuman strength. In ''[[Super Mario World]]'', he is seen lifting a fortress out of the ground and then throwing it. In ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', he can carry and throw the very large King Bob-omb, despite the king being far larger than him. An even more impressive feat is during the battles with Bowser; Mario can grab him by the tail, spin him around and throw him. Mario spins Bowser around faster and farther with more spins. His strength is also shown in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', where he can easily stun a [[Mega Goomba]] with a Star Spin despite its great size and his ability to knock Bowser around during battles with him. He can also lift [[Bob-omb]]s that were his size. In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story|Bowser's Inside Story]]'', he is able to, with great effort, lift and throw a 3 ton, morbidly obese Luigi when using the [[Snack Basket]] move among other fantastic feats. | *Mario has been shown to possess superhuman strength.

*Mario has a significant level of durability. He can withstand great impacts, such as falling from a height of several stories or being struck by opponents with superhuman strength, such as [[Donkey Kong]] or [[Bowser]]. Also, he can endure many things such as harsh environments. In the third Mario and Luigi game, he could withstand the freezing cold within Bowser's stomach or a dark energy blast from the [[Dark Star]] when Luigi had a difficult time shaking it off. Mario is very versatile and adapts amazingly fast to his surroundings, being able to go from scorching deserts to freezing snow peaks to the depths of outer-space. He can endure otherwise lethal hits (i.e. Burning, Electrocution, Freezing) several times before dying. | *Mario has a significant level of durability.

*Mario's first weapons were the [[Hammer]] in ''Donkey Kong'' and the [[Fireball]] in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' Mario often uses the Hammer as a weapon in Mario RPGs.
