The '''Ground Pound''' (also known as '''Hip Drop''',<ref>Barton, Jeff, Mario De Govia, Tri Pham, and Donato Tica. ''Mario Party 2'' Prima Official Strategy Guide, page 61.</ref> '''Smash Attack''', '''Butt-Bash'''<ref>UK ''Nintendo Magazine'' #54 (March 1997), page 21.</ref>, and '''Butt Stomp''', formatted as '''ground-pound''' in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and the ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' games; also capitalized as '''ground pound'''<!--http://i.imgur.com/pp7hxrq.png-->) is an ability that has affected the ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' franchise dramatically, along with moves such as the [[Wall Jump]] and [[Spin Jump]]. The move is usually executed by [[crouch]]ing in midair, but is sometimes used by pressing the jump button twice instead (this is usually in mini-game applications, such as in the ''[[Mario Party (series)|Mario Party]]'' games). When used, the character will slam their rear end on the ground, which can cause many results. | The '''Ground Pound''' (also known as '''Hip Drop''',<ref>Barton, Jeff, Mario De Govia, Tri Pham, and Donato Tica.

The move can break or activate blocks from below, the opposite effect of a normal [[Jump]]. It is sometimes the only way to defeat an enemy or complete a task, and is usually more powerful than a regular jump. The Ground Pound is a common move that almost any character can use, even [[Boo]], [[Dry Bones]], [[Birdo]], and [[Bowser]]. | The move can break or activate blocks from below, the opposite effect of a normal [[Jump]].
