==Summary==
Mario is the titular protagonist of The Super Mario Bros. Movie based on the video game character of the same name. Unlike his video game counterpart, Mario is an Italian-American living in Brooklyn with a family of Italian immigrants, originates from a fictionalized version of the real world, struggles with insecurities stemming from a disapproving father, and ironically has a distaste for mushrooms. The character is intended to be more fleshed out than his game counterpart as opposed to just being a "brick-smashing avatar"."The Super Mario Bros. Movie - Production Information"
When attempting to fix a broken water main reported on the news, Mario stumbles on the Warp Zone and is unwillingly sucked into the magical new world of the Mushroom Kingdom along with his brother Luigi, where the duo find themselves separated. Once there, he embarks on a quest to find Luigi, who has fallen into the clutches of the nefarious Bowser, and save the Mushroom Kingdom with the assistance of the zany Toad, the brash Donkey Kong, and the strong-willed ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom, Princess Peach.

</tabber>
Attack Potency: Small Building level (Can defeat Koopa Troopas, which can survive their karts blowing up, making them this durable), Varies from Below Average Human level (The Mini Mushroom reduces Mario to a diminutive size. Bowser was unable to break free from a glass jar when under the effects of a Mini Mushroom) to Large Building level with Power-Ups (Power-Ups generally grant an increase in strength. Defeated Donkey Kong as Cat Mario, who withstood an explosion of this size, and tackled into him with enough force to destroy a steel bridge) | City Block level (Shattered part of Bowser's ship alongside Luigi), possibly Town level (The Super Star was implied to be the most powerful thing Bowser had at his disposal, which would make it more powerful than the Bomber Bill, something that would've caused this much damage if it hit the Mushroom Kingdom)
Speed: Peak Human (Can run alongside Donkey Kong) with Subsonic reaction and combat speed (Dodged an attack from Donkey Kong, who swatted away a cannonball), Below Average Human as Mini Mario, Subsonic as Cat Mario (Moved this fast) | At least Subsonic (Blitzed Bowser and his entire army) 
Lifting Strength: Peak Human (Dragged an unconscious Donkey Kong with one hand while underwater and swam him to the surface), Varies from Below Average Human (As Mini Mario) to Superhuman with Power-Ups (Tossed a barrel at Donkey Kong) | Possibly Class M (Should be stronger than before; likely comparable to Donkey Kong, who lifted this much weight)
Striking Strength: Small Building level, Varies from Below Average Human level to Large Building level with Power-Ups | City Block level, possibly Town level
Durability: Large Building level (Tanked a large explosion), Varies from Below Average Human level to Large Building level with Power-Ups | City Block level (Can withstand the force of his own attacks), possibly Town level (Super Star users are said to be "invincible", implying they could withstand the Bomber Bill's explosion)
Stamina: Superhuman (Relentlessly attempted a hazardous training course for over a day. Traveled through multiple regions alongside Peach and Toad while showing no signs of exhaustion. Endured thrashings from the likes of Bowser and Donkey Kong and kept fighting) | Superhuman (Higher than before)
Range: Standard Melee Range. Below Standard Melee Range as Mini Mario. Extended Melee Range as Cat Mario and Tanooki Suit Mario.
Standard Equipment: A wrench.
*Optional Equipment: Super Mushroom, Mini Mushroom, Super Bell, Super Leaf, Super Star
Intelligence: Above Average (Mario is shown to possess a diverse skillset, owning his own plumbing service, being a skilled go-kart driver, and is a skilled combatant able to perform a series of gymnastic stunts. Mario was also able to adapt to the world of the Mushroom Kingdom in a matter of days despite it being alien to him)
Weaknesses: The effects of Power-Ups will disappear when he gets hit, regardless of if the attack itself is fatal or not. His strength is greatly reduced as Mini Mario and his size is ill-suited for combat. | The Super Star's effects have a time limit, barely lasting over a minute before wearing off.
Notable Attacks/Techniques: 
*Ground Pound: While in midair, Mario rockets directly downward and slams his rear end on the ground, releasing a shock-wave which shakes the ground and causes nearby enemies to topple over.
