Background

Mario is the main character and protagonist of the long-running and highly successful Mario franchise. He was created by Japanese video game designer Shigeru Miyamoto and serves as the main mascot of Nintendo. Mario made his first appearance as the protagonist of the arcade game Donkey Kong, released in 1981 (in which he took the alias "Jumpman"). Since Super Mario Bros., his trademark abilities have been his jumping and stomping powers, with which he defeats most of his enemies, and his ability to gain even more powers with a plethora of items, such as the Super Mushroom, the Fire Flower, and the Super Star. Games have usually portrayed Mario as a silent character without a distinct personality (Fortune Street is a notable exception). According to Nintendo's philosophy, this allows Mario to fit in many different genres and roles. In most games, he is the hero that goes on an adventure to save Princess Peach from his arch-nemesis, Bowser, but he has been shown doing many other activities besides adventuring, such as racing and sporting with his younger twin brother and others. Mario's main traits are his red hat, thick mustache, Italian accent, cheerful personality, heavy use of power-ups, and high jumping ability.

Other

Standard Tactics: Mario's initial attacks are his standard jump or hammer, however he's often shown to use what's often given to him. His truth manipulation or being an avatar of The Player however can guide him on what's a better option to use, as he is guided to be reunited with those he loves under any cirumstance.

Weaknesses: Certain power-ups can be lost with enough damage, or have a time limit. He has had bits of being brash into a battle. He cannot say his name in his shadow form. | Same as before, The Pure Hearts require a source of love to work, removing all forms of love can stop its power. | None

Note: In Paper Mario Color Splash, the main point of the game is paint. Paint is a concept. As shown in the game, paint encompasses everything. And I mean everything. Paint is shown to be all of land, liquid, life (Once bringing Toad back via paint, Huey states that paint gives life. Additionally, paint can return the blood, organs, and skin to an old fossil that's been dead years ago), mind (Paint can speak to your mind by coloring your thoughts. Paint was able to take over Bowser's body and freely act on their own. Big Paint Stars are also shown to be alive), memory (Toad couldn't remember anything with the loss of paint on his head. Returning paint gave his memories back), emotions, space (even simple holes require paint to function as holes) and souls. Removing any paint would stop making anything work. It's everything.

Note 2: Mario's saving and loading can be active once Mario gets a game over. Saving has been mentioned outside of tutorials by several different characters on multiple occasions. In Bowser's Inside Story, there exists a sentient save block. A Koopa stated a save album can save his travels, which he read from a book. Toads recommend to save before a battle. Saving allows Mario save all events he has experienced so far. If his game ends, he can simply come back. A "game over" to Mario doesn't only stop at a death. A game over can also be Mario making the wrong choices, mind controlled, and incapacitation (such as falling forever in an endless pit at Tick Tock Clock). This ability can be used passively, no save block needed. Do also note that a player canonically exists, so saving and loading is not a stretch.

Note 3: Mario has consistently gotten stronger through the series. Not only has it been stated multiple times, but it's also been shown plenty of times. In Super Mario RPG, Geno (who Mario is comparable to) needed help to defeat Bowyer, as it was stated he was stronger. They later easily defeat a stronger version of him. During each battle, Jinx battles Mario and uses more power during each rematch. In Paper Mario, Jr. Troopa has been able to keep up with Mario. During each encounter, Jr. Troopa is stated and shown to get stronger, thus Mario would also need to become stronger to not get overpowered. The Koopa Bros were also able to keep up with Mario. During near the end of the game, they encounter Mario again. They state they've gotten stronger past their wildest dreams. Jr. Troopa one-shot all four of them. Mario has to keep training to defeat The Master, during each battle, he holds back less until finally using his full power. At the start of the game, Mario was stomped by a Star Rod Bowser. This no longer happens during the final battle. In Superstar Saga, Fawful can easily defeat Bowser. Later in the game, Luigi (who Mario is stronger than) easily defeats Fawful. In The Thousand Year Door, Mario was unable to harm the Armored Harriers and ended up being defeated. When Mini-Yoshi is recruited, they win. Rawk Hawk and others are higher ranked than them, who Mario defeats, thus he should be superior to them. Rawk Hawk took time for Mario to defeat, Bowser was able to one-shot him. Mario ends up defeating Bowser. Sir Grodus, who isn't far below Mario, was one-shot by Shadow Peach. Mario ends up overpowering her, making her resort to using her true form. Mario was unable to harm the Shadow Queen with any of his attacks, even his best moves are useless. During Mario's battle against Bonetail, it was stated that he was the boss. Mario was able to harm him with his normal attacks. In Partners in Time, the Bros were one-shot from a charged Shroob UFO blast. The Bros can then take hits from the source of the energy later on. Should be noted Swiggler can drink these to amplify itself. In Super Paper Mario, on top of stating to be stronger, Mario defeats both O'Chunks and Mimi, who state to get stronger. In Bowser's Inside Story, the Bros defeat Bowser after constantly gaining stronger many times. They even defeat a stronger version, Bowser X. The Dark Star's incomplete power made barriers that the Bros could not break. Later on they end up defeating it and scale to Bowser who defeated Dark Bowser (the Dark Star at his peak). In Sticker Star, Mario was knocked out by simply jumping on Bowser. Later on he defeats his first form.
