==History==

===''Super Mario'' series===

====''Super Mario Galaxy''====

In the end, all the Lumas (including Mario's Luma) throw themselves into the massive black hole created by [[Bowser]]'s dying sun to neutralize it. However, Luma is reborn and living on a small planet while it is hinted that the other Lumas will be reborn later.

====''Mario Kart Tour''====

In ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', a group of coins in the shape of a Luma appears in the [[Coin Rush (Mario Kart Tour)|Coin Rush]] of [[3DS Rosalina's Ice World]]. The Luma is mostly made up of regular coins, though the eyes are made of [[Blue Coin]]s. A Luma also appears on the [[Luma Parafoil]] and on [[List of badges in Mario Kart Tour|badges]] depicting its emblem or the Galaxy Air logo.

===''Mario Tennis'' series===

====''Mario Tennis Open''====

A yellow Luma makes a debut as a playable character in ''[[Mario Tennis Open]]''. He is a Technique-type player and can be unlocked by completing level 3 of the [[Galaxy Rally]] special game, where, in the special game, he rallies the ball against players. His racquet is turquoise with a picture of a Luma on it. Red, green, and turquoise Lumas appear as line judges in the [[Galaxy Arena]] court. Also, if the player uses Luma in the Galaxy Rally game, the opponent Luma is blue.

In ''[[Mario Tennis Aces]]'', a yellow Luma appears during Rosalina's Tournament Finals introduction sequence. Additionally, when Rosalina uses her Special Shot, three Lumas (yellow, green, and red) appear and each use a Star Spin to pass the ball to her.

Lumas appear with various different colors alongside Rosalina as a singular new fighter in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]''. They function as a team; whenever Rosalina attacks, the Luma also attacks, allowing for combo attacks and for attacking from afar if Luma is separated from Rosalina. Lumas have their own HP, and if they take enough damage, they get defeated. Lumas can also get defeated by being knocked off of the stage to the point where they cannot recover. After a few seconds, another Luma appears near Rosalina. If Rosalina gets KO'd, the Luma vanishes and a new one appears when Rosalina respawns. Lumas can attack even if Rosalina is stunned by other attacks such as grabbing, and their attacks depend on what input the player performs as Rosalina. By using their standard special attack, [[Luma Shot]], the Luma can be sent away from Rosalina to fight, and by using the move again it is called back to her. [[Kirby]]'s copy ability version of Luma Shot summons a Luma for the move, which instantly disappears after the move's completion.

===''Dr. Mario World''===

As an overall species, Lumas make their [[Dr. Mario (series)|''Dr. Mario'' series]] debut in ''[[Dr. Mario World]]'', where one Luma known as '''Dr. Luma''' appears as a playable character. Dr. Luma is a reward in [[World 8 (Dr. Mario World)|World 8]]'s special stage since version 1.2.0, though beating the stage prior to the update will allow him to be obtainable through the doc box.

Dr. Luma's skill is to shift the [[virus]]es in the lowest rows so that they collide with an object above them, where it is represented by a sparkling image of a Luma on screen, followed by multiple Lumas flying across the lowest rows, in which the affected rows are the 6 lowest rows in stage mode, the 5 lowest rows at level 1 in versus mode and the 10 lowest rows in level 2 or higher in versus mode. In versus mode, the skill charges faster at higher levels starting from level 3. Viruses that are contained inside objects like [[ice]] and [[Brick Block]]s can also be shifted, but other objects are not affected. Prior to version 2.3.0, this skill would do nothing if the skill is used when every possible virus in the lowest rows cannot be shifted further, but since then it will eliminate one random virus or object instead ([[capsule]]s are not affected). In versus mode, Dr. Luma possesses the highest possible defense value, where it has 80% defense against two-line bomb attacks.
