Fireball’s power increased and now does a set amount of damage throughout.
===Special Attacks===
 	Name 	Damage 	Description
Neutral Special	Fireball 	6% (throughout) 	Mario fires a weak, bouncy ball of flames that is shot from his hand as a projectile.
Alternate 1 	Fast Fireball 	3% (early), 2.3% (mid), 1.5% (late) 	Mario quickly fires a ball of flames forward.
Alternate 2 	Hammer 	12% 	Mario attacks the opponent with his hammer. It has a lot of cooldown and is short ranged but it’s very powerful and can KO heavier opponents at 118%.
Side Special 	Cape 	7% 	Mario swings a cape that reflects projectiles and enemies.
Alternate 1 	Gust Cape 	5% 	Mario shoots a small gust of wind from his cape which pushes his opponent back in addition to turning them around.
Alternate 2 	Red Shell 	4% 	Mario throws a red shell that slides across the ground. It has high knockback but low damage and can kill lightweight fighters at 132%.
Up Special 	Super Jump Punch 	5% (hit 1), 1% (hits 2-5), 3% (hit 6) 	Mario performs an upward punch that releases aesthetic coins from those it hits.
Alternate 1 	Super Jump 	 	A recovery giving more distance than the standard Super Jump Punch, at the cost of not having a hitbox..
Alternate 2 	Explosive Jump Punch	8% (hit 1), 13% (hit 2) 	A much stronger recovery move that causes explosive fire damage instead of releasing star coins. However, it covers far less distance than the standard Super Jump Punch.
Down Special 	F.L.U.D.D. 	 	Mario pulls out F.L.U.D.D. from Super Mario Sunshine, which will blast jets of water to push back opponents, but not damage them..
Alternate 1 	Scalding F.L.U.D.D. 	1.2% per hit 	The jets of water fired now emit steam as well. It deals rapid fire damage that keep the enemy in place rather than pushing them back.
Alternate 2 	Mario Tornado 	1.2% (loop hits), 3.3% (last hit) 	Performs a multi-hit spinning attack. It also traps the opponent, hitting them constantly, before knocking them back. Mario can move around on the ground while spinning, and can hover in the air by repeatedly pressing the B button while using it.
Final Smash 	Mario Finale 	3% (bigger fireball), 2% (smaller fireball)	Mario shoots a massive tornado of flames horizontally across the stage.
