'''P Blocks''' are objects in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'' that can be placed in every [[level]] style. Similar to [[ON/OFF Switch]]es, they are activated or deactivated whenever the player hits a [[P Switch]]; they are outlined when deactivated, and when activated, they become solid blocks that cannot be destroyed by any means. Due to the effect being temporary, the blocks operate in a similar way to the [[Dotted-Line Block]]s from ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and its sequels.

In ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]'', P Blocks appear in a single room in the level [[The Midway Trial: Hop to It]], where they are yellow, but do not have the letter "P" printed onto them; this is because they are instead activated by a [[! Switch]].

Prior to the P Block's debut, in ''[[Super Mario World]]'', some [[Hidden Block]]s can be revealed only by pressing Blue P-Switches, making them similar to P Blocks.
