A '''Poison Mushroom''' (alternatively '''Poison Shroom'''), also known as '''Cursed Mushroom''' in some ''[[Mario Party (series)|Mario Party]]'' games, is a harmful variety of [[Mushroom]]. Usually, they have the opposite effects a [[Super Mushroom]] may have, and while they are sometimes called a [[List of power-ups|power-up]], they act more like a hindrance or trap. They make their first appearance in ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'' and have appeared in a number of games since then.

The Poison Mushroom has had a variety of different appearances throughout ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' media, most of which have an angry expression in comparison to the majority of Mushrooms, with some depictions showing them with a skull, a common symbol to represent death, on their caps, while others have shown them with a purple cap with magenta spots. The [[Rotten Mushroom]], which debuted in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', is a similar type of mushroom, only differing from the Poison Mushroom by its ability to jump.

Poison Mushrooms made their debut in ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]''. They will defeat [[Small Mario]] or Luigi, revert [[Super Mario (form)|Super]] or [[Fire Mario]] into Small Mario, and will have no effect on [[Invincible Mario]] or a just-damaged invulnerable Mario. Unlike enemies, they disappear when touched and do not award points when Invincible Mario collides with one. As with all Mushrooms, the game will allow only one to be on screen at a time, so a player can get rid of a Poison Mushroom by revealing a [[Super Mushroom]] or a [[1-Up Mushroom]], causing the first one to disappear. Poison Mushrooms can be found in [[Brick Block]]s, [[? Block]]s, and [[Hidden Block]]s alike, and generally appear as a dull brown, blue, or gray mushroom in the original FDS game (depending on whether the level is set on ground, underground, or in a castle, as they share the exact same color palette as the Goombas in those levels). The original artwork (seen on the right), though, depicts them with a much more sinister appearance, sporting shadowy eyes and a menacing grin. In the ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'' remake, Poison Mushrooms are also known as '''Poisonous Mushrooms'''<ref name=All-Stars>''Super Mario All-Stars'' Player's Guide, page 28.</ref> or '''Blue Mushrooms'''<ref name=All-Stars/> and appear as blue-skulled, purple-capped mushrooms with angry eyes, making them much more visually obvious. This change to maintain obviousness was carried over to the ''[[Super Mario Bros. Deluxe]]'' port, though with a red stalk, green cap, and pink skull, and without eyes. In the brief cinematic that plays on the title screen if one waits long enough without touching the controls, Mario is shown being defeated by a Poison Mushroom.

Poison Mushrooms return in the Special Worlds of ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'', retaining their effects from ''Super Mario Advance 4''. In this game, they somewhat behave like enemies, as they follow Mario or Luigi around until he is in an area that they cannot get to, or they fall into a bottomless pit. They can also be destroyed by [[fireball]]s or [[boomerang]]s, invincibility from a [[Super Star]] or [[Invincibility Leaf]] or by [[Statue Mario|transforming into a statue]] to make them vanish on contact. In addition, grabbing a Super Star will cause them to flee until the player returns to normal. They use their design from ''[[Mario Hoops 3-on-3]]'' but with angry eyes, being purple with magenta spots and emitting purple dust (possibly spores) when released and grabbed.

====''Super Mario Maker 2''====
Although actual Poison Mushrooms do not reappear in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', a derivative known as [[Rotten Mushroom]]s appear in the ''Super Mario Bros.'', ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', ''Super Mario World'' and ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' styles at night in the Ground theme, replacing [[1-Up Mushroom]]s. They act like Poison Mushrooms do in ''Super Mario 3D Land'', though they can also hop up small ledges.

Poison Mushrooms (with red-spotted yellow caps, similar to Super Mushrooms in ''Super Mario Bros.'') were also featured in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'' as items, however they were only used by the CPU-controlled drivers [[Toad]] and the [[Princess Peach|Princess]], and not usable by the player. If any driver runs into a Poison Mushroom, they would become small, ending up moving slow and vulnerable to other karts in the area, as they can end up squashed if run over by a full-sized kart. The player can also return to normal size if they run into another Poison Mushroom; this also works if the player were made small from [[Lightning]] by the other player (as CPU players cannot use Lightning in this game).

[[File:PoisonMushroomMKAGP.png|frame]]
In both ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP]]'' and its sequel ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP 2]]'', the Poison Mushroom returns as one of Toad's special character items. Like in ''Super Mario Kart'', Toad can throw the Poison Mushrooms either in front of him as well as behind him (providing him with advantages in both ways), which causes his opponents to shrink if they come in contact with them. However, unlike in ''Super Mario Kart'', the player can now use them as well. In this game, the Poison Mushroom has a black cap with magenta spots, similar to its ''Luigi's Mansion'' design.
Poison Mushrooms infrequently appear as items in the [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'' series]]. In ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'', Poison Mushrooms, which have red-spotted yellow caps, similarly to Super Mushrooms in ''Super Mario Bros.'', are only used by CPU-controlled drivers [[Toad]] and the [[Princess Peach|Princess]], not by the player. If any driver runs into a Poison Mushroom, they would become small, ending up moving slow and vulnerable to other karts in the area, as they can end up squashed if run over by a full-sized kart. The player can also return to normal size if they run into another Poison Mushroom; this also works if the player were made small from [[Lightning]] by the other player (as CPU players cannot use Lightning in this game). In ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP 2]]'', the Poison Mushroom is one of Toad's special items, and he can throw the Poison Mushrooms either in front of him or from behind. Poison Mushrooms retain their typical effect of shrinking whoever drives into them, but they instead have a black cap with magenta spots, similarly as in ''Luigi's Mansion''.

Poison Mushrooms reappear in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' as '''Bad Mushrooms'''. They can be purchased in [[Seaside Town]] while [[Yaridovich]] is in control of the town, and can only be used in battle. They can also be obtained after using a [[Yoshi Cookie]] on an [[Amanita]] or [[Chewy]], and occasionally from [[Kriffid]]s after defeating them. When used, Bad Mushrooms poison an enemy of choice, though some [[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars bestiary|enemies]] are immune. Their official artwork depicts them with their above-ground ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels'' coloration, while the sprite itself depicts it with a [[Super Mushroom]]'s modern colors.

In ''[[Mario Party]]'', when landing on a [[Mushroom Space]], if the player gets the Poison Mushroom, they lose their next turn. In this game, it is referred to as a Poisonous Mushroom.
Poison Mushrooms commonly appear throughout the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]]. They first appear in ''[[Mario Party]]'', where if the player gets the Poisonous Mushroom (as the game calls it) from landing on a [[Mushroom Space]], they lose their next turn.


====''Mario Party 2''====
Poison Mushrooms have appeared in a few minigames. In ''[[Mario Party 2]]'', they appear in [[Rakin' 'em In]], which refers to them as '''Poison Purple Mushrooms''', and if the player grips and drags a Poison Purple Mushroom into their goal, they lose three points. In ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'', images of Poison Mushrooms are stuck on some panels in [[Emergency Hexit]]. If not removed quickly, they would consume 5 seconds from the game's timer every once in a while. The player can get rid of Poison Mushroom panels by clearing a row of identical panels that is adjacent to them. In ''[[Mario Party 10]]'', Poison Mushrooms, maintaining their ''Super Mario 3D Land'' design, appear only in the minigame [[Movin' Mushrooms]], where if they fall into one of the carts, the respective team loses three points.

[[File:MP3 Poison Mushroom.png|frame|left]]
In ''[[Mario Party 3]]'', the Poison Mushroom is an item that the players can use on either themselves or one of their opponents. A player who is cursed by a Poison Mushroom can only roll a 1, 2, or 3 on their next turn. It is possible to eliminate the curse by using another Mushroom or a [[Magic Lamp]]. If the player's character is still under effect of the mushroom, [[Tumble]] will say that they are still sick from it. It is [[Waluigi]]'s favorite item. In this game, the Poison Mushroom has an indigo cap with pale lime-green spots. It can be obtained by either playing an item minigame, or by paying 5 coins at [[Baby Bowser's Shop]].
Since ''[[Mario Party 3]]'', Poison Mushrooms have begun to appear as usable board item. In said game, the Poison Mushroom has an indigo cap with pale lime-green spots. It can be obtained by either playing an item minigame, or by paying 5 coins at [[Baby Bowser's Shop]]. A Poison Mushroom can either be used by the player or applied onto of their opponents. A player who is cursed by a Poison Mushroom can only roll a 1, 2, or 3 on their next turn, but the curse can be undone by using another Mushroom or a [[Magic Lamp]]. If the player's character is still under effect of the mushroom, [[Tumble]] will say that they are still sick from it. It is [[Waluigi]]'s favorite item. In ''[[Mario Party 5]]'', the Poison Mushroom, retranslated as the "Cursed Mushroom", is now a [[Cursed Mushroom Orb|capsule]]. If a character lands on a space where it has been placed or if the player uses it on themselves, they can only roll the die with numbers from 1 to 5. In [[Super Duel Mode]], when the player collides into a Cursed Mushroom, it will temporarily hinder the player's speed and control. The Cursed Mushroom reappears in both ''[[Mario Party 6]]'', where it instead reduces the Dice Block numbers from 1-6 to 1-3 and exclusively appears in Solo Mode, and ''[[Mario Party 7]]'', where a Cursed Mushroom can now only be obtained from a [[Koopa Kid Space]]. In ''Mario Party: Island Tour'', Poison Mushrooms exclusively appear as an item on [[Perilous Palace Path]], where using one subtracts two from a rival’s roll of the Dice Block. Similarly, in ''[[Mario Party: Star Rush]]'', ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]'', and ''[[Super Mario Party]]'', Poison Mushrooms can also be used on other players to subtract two from their dice roll and allies, and the effects of this item are capable of stacking.

[[File:LM Poison Mushroom.png|left|thumb|upright=0.85|The Poisonous Mushroom.]]In ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'', Poison Mushrooms, also referred to as '''purple mushrooms'''<ref>Loe, Casey. Versus Books ''Luigi's Mansion'' Perfect Guide. Page 11.</ref> or Poisonous Mushrooms,<ref>Bogenn, Tim. BradyGAMES ''Luigi's Mansion'' Official Strategy Guide. Page 11.</ref> are dropped by [[portrait ghost]]s when Luigi tries to suck them up. Poison Mushrooms can also be found by vacuuming or interacting with various objects throughout the mansion, and they have a chance of appearing during the final boss battle whenever [[King Boo]]'s [[Bowser]] suit destroys a pillar. These mushrooms bounce around the room for a few seconds before disappearing. On contact, they cause Luigi to shrink and drop ten coins on the floor. Additionally, Luigi cannot use his [[Poltergust 3000]] in this form, potentially allowing the portrait ghosts to escape his vacuum and thereby reduce the portrait rank. While in this small state, Luigi's voice clips are high-pitched and he takes more damage when he gets hit. After several seconds, the Poison Mushroom's effect wears off and Luigi's size returns to normal.

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', a gray-colored Poison Mushroom can be an item used by the two [[Dr. Shroob]]s and also [[Swiggler]] in the battle against him. The [[Shroobs]] also resemble Poison Mushrooms. In addition, one of [[Shrooboid Brat]]'s attacks involves spitting either Mushrooms or Poison Mushrooms at Mario and Luigi, though they are launched as the opposite of what he is given (if he is given a Mushroom, it is spit out as a Poison Mushroom, and vice versa). Like in the previous game, getting hit by a Poison Mushroom inflicts the brothers with the [[poison (status effect)|poison]] status effect.

In ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', Poison Shrooms are a much more common occurrence than in its predecessor, occasionally being dropped by [[Zombie Shroom]]s, [[Cursya]]s, and their relatives. However, they do not damage the player for half of their HP; instead they gradually do damage 1 HP at a time until the [[poison (status effect)|poison]] is cured. They are used slightly more in recipes; for example, a single Poison Shroom can produce a [[Dangerous Delight]]. In addition, any recipe that requires a Poison Shroom can be cooked using a [[Ghost Shroom]] instead, if Poison Shrooms are in short supply (Ghost Shrooms can be bought from various shops, or obtained via [[Merlee]]'s charms).

One is also used as a 'key' to open the door in [[Drybake Desert]] to enter the desert. Putting one inside of a Paperization Block will yield a Mushroom, Shiny Mushroom, a Flashy Mushroom, or three Shiny Leaves. It can be purchased at [[Whammino Mountain]] for 2 coins. Also, a Toad in a back alley of [[Decalburg]] will sell the player a heavily overpriced Poison Mushroom (only once [[Hither Thither Hill]] is unlocked), but the player can negotiate to get the price down to 25 coins.

|desc=Poison Mushrooms made their debut in Super Mario All-Stars, where they'd cost characters a life if picked up. These nasty fungi are dark and foul-tasting, and in Super Smash Bros. Melee, they make you shrink on contact. With your diminished stature comes a loss of power and mass, making you a prime target to get smashed offscreen with even a light attack.

|desc=A penalty item that shrinks whoever grabs it. It's hard to distinguish from a Super Mushroom, so you may find yourself getting small when you wanted to get big. When you're in miniature form, your attack power drops, and even the lightest attack can send you off the stage. That being said, a small target's hard to hit. Your best plan when you're tiny may be to run.
