'''Cloud Mario''' is a form of [[Mario]] that first appears in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. Mario takes this form after obtaining a [[Cloud Flower]], and it is the most common form in the game. The [[Fluffy Bluff Galaxy]] and [[Cloudy Court Galaxy]] make prominent use of Cloud Mario. 

==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario Galaxy 2''====
In ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', the player can create a cloud by shaking the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]] and use it as a platform for a short time, after which it disappears. However, they can only do this three times; Mario can collect another Cloud Flower to refill the number of clouds he has. Every time Mario creates a cloud, one of the clouds behind him disappears, letting the player know how many clouds he has left. Like [[Bee Mario]], besides taking damage, when Cloud Mario touches water, he loses the power-up and returns to normal. Mario can also jump farther and fall more slowly when the power-up is active. Additionally, in this form, he can step on some clouds that would disappear had he stepped on them in his normal state.  

Cloud Mario also appears in the [[Puzzle Plank Galaxy]], and this form is used to defeat the boss [[Bugaboom]]. In [[Throwback Galaxy]], Cloud Mario is needed to collect five [[Silver Star]]s. In the [[Starshine Beach Galaxy]], Cloud Mario is needed to climb to the top of the Cloudy Tower on the main planet. In [[Bowser Jr.'s Boom Bunker]], Cloud Mario is needed to climb high enough to [[Ground Pound]] the cockpit of [[Bowser Jr.]]'s [[Boomsday Machine]] and defeat Bowser Jr. Cloud Mario's final appearance is in the [[Grandmaster Galaxy]], and it is needed to navigate an electric maze. It should also be noted that Mario will always successfully finish the game's final mission, The Perfect Run, as Cloud Mario, as due to that Prankster Comet mission being a Daredevil Comet, meaning that he needs to complete the mission with only one healthpoint, and that taking any damage will cause him to instantly fail the mission, and there are no bodies of water present in this galaxy at all, meaning that there is no way Mario will ever be able to remove the power-up for the remainder of the mission once it is finally made useless due to all of his clouds being used up during the mission, and there are no more Cloud Flowers left to replenish the clouds already been used up.

====''Super Mario Odyssey''====
Cloud Mario was [[List of Super Mario Odyssey pre-release and unused content|one of several costumes planned to be sold by the]] [[Crazy Cap]] in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', but was scrapped for unknown reasons.

===''Mario Tennis Open''===
A Cloud Mario costume and racket for [[Mii]]s appears as an unlockable element in ''[[Mario Tennis Open]]''. In order to get the costume, the player must give 10 characters a star rank. The racket for this costume costs 1800 coins for Miis to use.

===''Mario Golf: World Tour''===
In ''[[Mario Golf: World Tour]]'', a Cloud Mario costume, Cloud Mario golf ball, and Cloud Mario golf club set can be unlocked. The golf ball and clubs appear in the shop after playing rounds, and the costume becomes available when the player succeeds 20 times in Endless Approach Practice.

===''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''===
Cloud Mario makes a cameo appearance as a [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]''.

|''Guess what happens when Mario collects a [[Cloud Flower]]! Oh, wait. You can already see exactly what happens... That's right, [[Mario]] dons a fluffy hat, overalls, and a scarf and gets a whole lot lighter. He can jump farther, stay in the air longer, walk on clouds, and even make cloud platforms. This outfit is all silver lining!''

==Trivia==
*Enemies such as [[Goomba]]s can walk on Mario's clouds, which he cannot achieve in normal form. Coins can also stand on one of his clouds.
*Real-life clouds are made out of water and when they turn into rain and hit the ocean, the clouds disappear; Cloud Mario's weakness is based on this science, as his cloud power-up disappears when water touches them.
