'''''Super Mario Odyssey''''' is a 3D action-adventure platformer for the [[Nintendo Switch]]. It is the twentieth entry in the ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' series,<ref>スーパーマリオブラザーズ35周年. "[https://twitter.com/supermario35th/status/1301648749907902464 1985-2020年「今日の思い出マリオ」と題して、本日から少しずつ35年間のマリオタイトルを振り返っていきます。ハッシュタグの #思い出マリオ が目印です。どうぞお楽しみに。]" (Japanese text). ''[https://twitter.com/home Twitter]''. Published 03 Sept 2020. Accessed 13 Apr 2023.</ref> the eighth 3D ''Super Mario'' title overall, and the first 3D ''Super Mario'' title for a hybrid console, being the sixth 3D ''Super Mario'' title on a home console after ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and the second 3D ''Super Mario'' title on a handheld console after ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''. It was first teased in the Switch's announcement video on October 20, 2016, and was formally announced as part of the Nintendo Switch presentation on January 13, 2017. The game was released in select regions on October 27, 2017;<ref>http://www.ign.com/articles/2017/06/13/e3-2017-super-mario-odyssey-release-date-announced?utm_source=zergnet&utm_medium=Web&utm_campaign=Zergnet_1782972</ref> in South Korea and Taiwan on December 1, 2017;<ref name=SouthKorea/><ref name=ROC/> and in China on March 16, 2020.<ref name=Tencent/> The game features sandbox-like elements similar to those in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' and revolves around [[Mario]] exploring [[Earth]]-based settings with his new partner, [[Cappy]].

Unique to this game, Mario is able to throw Cappy onto certain enemies and objects, allowing Mario to [[Capture|take control of them]] and use their abilities. Mario can also dress in different costumes, several being based on the previous games. The game supports two-player co-op, allowing a second player to use a single Joy-Con or Pro Controller to control Cappy independently from Mario. The game also has online functionality, which allows players to compare their times/scores in certain events. In addition, [[amiibo]] can be used to unlock certain costumes early as well as obtain free hints toward the locations of [[Power Moon]]s and [[regional coin]]s.

Mario and Cappy destroy the RoboBrood, sending the Broodals flying as they recover another Multi Moon. They then head off to Honeylune Ridge of the [[Moon Kingdom]] to stop the marriage between Bowser and Peach. They interrupt the wedding as Bowser is attempting to put the Binding Band that was previously stolen from Tostarena on Peach. Bowser then stomps the floor, revealing a trapdoor under Mario and Cappy. Cappy grabs Mario by the fingers and tries to pull him out of the trapdoor, but his hands slip, causing him to drop Mario and fall into it himself. Bowser jumps in after them and engages them in battle, but he is defeated. Mario, Cappy, Peach, and Tiara are reunited but soon discover that the area they are in is collapsing, causing Mario to capture an unconscious Bowser and escape, with all of them eventually returning to the moon. Mario and Bowser then simultaneously propose to marry Peach, with Mario offering a [[Rocket Flower]] and Bowser offering a Soirée Bouquet. Peach, overwhelmed by their fighting and arguing over her, rejects them both and leaves with Cappy and Tiara, making Mario and Bowser dejected. She then calls from the Odyssey, saying, ''"Let's go home!"'' As the ship takes off, Mario and Bowser run after it. While Mario successfully jumps onto it, he stomps on Bowser, leaving him stuck on the moon.

Mario's [[Health Meter|life meter]] also returns with three health, like in ''Super Mario Galaxy''. Additionally, there are no lives (and, by extension, [[1-Up Mushroom]]s and [[Game Over]]s) in the game, making this the first 3D ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' game not to feature them, as Mario instead loses ten [[coin]]s upon dying. The coins that Mario collects serve as currency. There are two types of coins—global yellow coins, which can be found and used in any kingdom, and purple [[regional coin]]s, which are different in every kingdom and can be used only in the kingdom they were found in. Mario can spend his coins at the [[Crazy Cap]] stores to buy items for the Odyssey and costumes. [[amiibo]] support includes Mario, Peach, Bowser, and a new character called [[Uncle amiibo]], which unlocks more costumes, including ones based on [[Luigi]], [[Wario]], [[Waluigi]], and [[Diddy Kong]];<ref>https://www.nintendo.co.jp/hardware/amiibo/chart/index.html</ref> others reveal Power Moon locations on the map, though the latter four amiibo also do that before unlocking the costumes. This is also the case for the new "wedding" variants of the former three amiibo.

''Super Mario Odyssey'' has Mario going on a world voyage to stop the forced marital union between [[Princess Peach]] and [[Bowser]]. Considered a return to form, Mario's advanced movement options from ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' return alongside completely new abilities. Many of these involve his new traveling companion, Cappy.

Cappy takes on the form of [[Mario Cap|Mario's cap]] during the game and can be tossed at characters and objects, allowing Mario to temporarily "[[capture]]" their form. In multiplayer, the second player controls Cappy while the first controls Mario directly, somewhat similar to how multiplayer worked with the [[Co-Star Luma]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''.

|The ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom. She is kidnapped by [[Bowser]] who aims to {{wp|Forced marriage|force her into marriage}}. The game's story revolves around [[Mario]]'s quest to stop the marriage and save her. The two are [[Princess Peach#Friends and love interests|very close]]. Once rescued, Mario attempts to {{wp|Marriage proposal|propose}} to her himself before being interrupted by Bowser, leading to both being rejected. After returning home, she gifts hats to all of her subjects and pursues her own worldwide voyage with Tiara. She can be found in revisited kingdom, and gives Mario a [[Power Moon]] once spoken to.

|The dapper people of [[Cap Kingdom|Bonneton]]. Much of their home is ransacked by Bowser while he was looking for an appropriate bridal veil. Bonneters are capable of [[capture|controlling other beings]] and [[Bonneter biologist|at least one]] takes interest in the physiology of other creatures. They can transform into hats and will use this ability to hide on other people's heads. Bonneters are otherwise known for building and living in hat-shaped [[airship]]s. They are similar to {{wp|tsukumogami}}.

|align=center|[[Cap Kingdom]], [[Moon Kingdom]], [[Darker Side]]{{footnote|main|A}}

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Frog.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Frog]]s {{chart icon|SMO-capture}}

|Frogs are fast swimmers and capable of reaching great heights by [[jump]]ing. They wear hats as part of their defense strategy, which must be knocked-off to be [[capture]]d. The sole frog found on [[Moon Kingdom|Honeylune Ridge]] was brought to the [[moon]] by the first moonwalkers.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Hint Toad.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Hint Toad]]

|The bespectacled member of the [[Toad Brigade]]. If given 50 [[coin]]s, Hint Toad marks the location of an uncollected [[Power Moon]] on the Travel Map. He is always located near the ''[[Odyssey]]''{{'}}s landing site within a kingdom, in close proximity to Uncle amiibo and Talkatoo.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Uncle amiibo.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Uncle amiibo]]

|Uncle amiibo is a robot that responds to scanned [[amiibo]]. For most figures, he will send them out into a visited kingdom to track down the location of an uncollected Power Moon. Some instead cause Uncle amiibo to gift him [[Crazy Cap#Luigi Cap|clothing]] based on the figure. Unlike most characters, Uncle amiibo can be stood on like a [[platform]] and does not cower when an [[#enemies and obstalces|enemy]] is nearby. He calls Mario "sport."

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Talkatoo.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Talkatoo]]

|A talking parrot. It provides the names for uncompleted [[mission]]s, but only up to three at a time. Talkatoo squawks in fear when an enemy is nearby and will not provide hints when prompted.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Tostarenan (Blue).png|75x75px]][[File:SMO Artwork Tostarenan (Green).png|75x75px]]<br>[[Tostarenan]]s

|The music-loving people of [[Sand Kingdom|Tostarena]]. Bowser indirectly burdens them with a cold snap when he steals their [[Binding Band]]. Tostarenans look like {{wp|calavera}}s and wear sombreros to keep the sun out of their eyes, which they also sell to tourists. Some dance to the rhythm of nearby music, shaking their maracas. [[Slots]] are ran by Tosterenans across several kingdoms. They are related to the [[Chincho]] enemies that roam the desert at night. The [[Desert Wanderer]] is a Tostarenan.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Sheep.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Sheep]]

|Sheep try to flee when approached. Striking one causes it to bounce into the air and direct it towards a desired direction. Mario occasionally encounters herders that have lost their sheep. They award him a Power Moon for retrieving them all.

|Fleet-footed beings that resemble {{wp|Moai|moai statues}}. They have inhabited Tostarena since ancient times. Moe-Eyes do not speak and are timid by nature. They run away if approached. Pressing {{button|switch|Y}} draws the sunglasses over the eyes of a captured Moe-Eye, allowing Mario to see invisible footpaths and platforms. However, it moves very slowly in this state.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Sphynx.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Sphynx]]

|The Sphynx is an obstructive figure who gives a quiz when prompted. If all of its questions are answered correctly, it grants Mario access to a hidden room. Typically reserved and posh, the Sphynx becomes progressively snarky as Mario answers questions correctly and will mock him when incorrect. Completing every quiz unlocks the final one of [[Darker Side|Culmina Crater]], in which it is revealed the Sphynx asks questions because it enjoys Mario and Cappy's company.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Jaxi.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Jaxi]]

|A cat-like beast that can be ridden across Tostarena. It allows Mario to ride it after paying a one-time fee of 30 coins. The Jaxi is very fast and nearly indestructible, but it is difficult to turn or stop. It can run across [[poison (obstacle)|poison]] and send enemies flying. It is implied that the [[Jaxi Statue|statues]] around Tostarena Ruins are Jaxis themselves in an immobile state, and that Jaxis can shift between these states at will.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Glydon Artwork.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Glydon]] {{chart icon|SMO-capture}}

|Glydon is a world traveler similar to a {{wp|Draco (lizard)|draco lizard}}, seeking great heights to glide from. When captured, Glydon can be used like a {{wp|paraglider}} to glide across great distances. Shaking the controller keeps him airborne longer. He does not sink into [[quicksand]].

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SandKingdomKoopaSMO.jpg|100x100px]][[File:SMO Screenshot Koopa (Trace-Walking) 3.jpg|100x100px]]<br>[[Koopa Troopa|Koopa]]s (Trace-Walking)

|Koopas are turtle-like creatures. Some host a game called [[Koopa Trace-Walking|Trace-Walking]]. They reward Mario with a Power Moon if he successfully follows the disappearing route they lay out on the surrounding ground. Each Trace-Walking host is a different color and wears a hat tied to the visited kingdom. Though members of the [[Koopa (species)|Koopa family]], they are harmless and seem to be unaffiliated with Bowser.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Koopa (Freerunning).png|100x100px]]<br>Koopas ([[Koopa Freerunning|Freerunning]])

|A quartet of Koopas called the [[Roving Racers]] that challenge Mario to a race. If victorious, he is awarded a Power Moon. Each Koopa is a different color and progress through the kingdom differently from one another. After Mario wins a kingdom's Regular Cup and breaks the kingdom's Moon Rock, the purple Koopa is replaced with a much more challenging gold one for the Master Cup.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Lakitu.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Lakitu]]s {{chart icon|SMO-capture}}

|[[Lakitu's Cloud|Cloud]]-riding Koopas that like fishing. Capturing one allows Mario to fish for [[Cheep Cheep]]s and other creatures in bodies of water.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Goombette.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Goombette]]s

|Pink [[Goomba]]s in {{wp|mushroom hat}}s. They flee if Mario comes near, but are affectionate if approached as a captured Goomba. Doing so awards the player a Power Moon.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Lochlady (Blue).png|100x100px]]<br>[[Lochlady|Lochladies]]

|{{wp|Merfolk}} that live in [[Lake Kingdom|Lake Lamode]]. They are world-renowned fashion designers. Their treasured [[Lochlady Dress]] is stolen by Bowser. Lochladies are of a gentle nature. Many can be can found swimming underwater. A trio of beret-wearing Lochladies called the [[Style Sisters]] give Mario Power Moons when he wears specific outfits for them.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMODorrieModel.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Dorrie]]s

|Gentle giants that resemble {{wp|plesiosaur}}s. In most contexts, Dorries swim with their backs above the water and can be stood on like platforms. Most Dorries are blue, but there are yellow and purple individuals in [[Bubblaine]] that bear the kingdom's Crazy Cap shops. Dorries speak in a distinct language that sounds similar to whale songs.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Steam Gardener.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Steam Gardener]]s

|Robots that tend to the [[flower (environmental object)|flowers]] of the [[Wooded Kingdom|Steam Gardens]]. Their [[Soirée Bouquet]]s are harvested by [[Torkdrift]] for Bowser's wedding. Most Steam Gardeners are yellow and spray water, but a few are silver and dispense [[Seed (Super Mario Odyssey)|giant seed]]s when [[Cap Throw|struck]]. Despite being robots, Steam Gardeners are emotive, can function underwater, and are sensitive to the cold. [[Small bird]]s often roost on their heads. They rely on moon-fueld charging stations for energy and their exhaust comes out as harmless water vapor.

|align=center|[[Wooded Kingdom]], [[Moon Kingdom]], [[Darker Side]]{{footnote|main|A}}

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Rabbit.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Rabbit]]s

|Rabbits run away from Mario, but they can be slowed down and approached if hit by Cappy. They give Mario a Power Moon if he catches up to them. Only the gray-colored, earthbound rabbits run from Mario. The many white-colored ones of [[Dark Side|Rabbit Ridge]] do not.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork New Donker (Male).png|100x100px]][[File:SMO Artwork New Donker (Female).png|100x100px]]<br>[[New Donker]]s {{chart icon|SMO-capture}}

|The denizens of [[New Donk City]]. A [[Mechawiggler]] is draining their city of its power when first encountered, causing a citywide blackout. New Donkers are business-oriented and drably clothed, contributing to the perception that they are too serious. However, New Donkers are kind when spoken to and known to throw festivals. A pair host the [[Jump-Rope Challenge]], and the hatless blonde ones can be captured to play with an [[RC Car]]. The Crazy Cap franchise was established by New Donkers.

|The mayor of New Donk City and an old friend of Mario's. After defeating the Mechawiggler, she puts on a [[A Traditional Festival!|rooftop concert]] in commemoration of his heroism. Pauline is passionate about music and is the {{wp|Virtual band|singer}} behind "[[Jump Up, Super Star!]]" She is a popular figure in New Donk City, with her profile etched into the city's [[regional coin]] and likeness displayed around the city. A park is named after her. Women wear a hat designed after her own.<ref>{{cite|quote=Isn't my hat just fabulous?!

|Mayor Pauline and the four backup musicians recruited by Mario for the New Donk City Festival. These musicians are a bassist, a guitarist, a drummer, and a trumpeter. Each band member awards Mario a Power Star when initially encountered.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Shiverian.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Shiverian]]s

|The seal-like people of [[Shiveria]]. Bowser has stolen their famous [[Frost-Frosted Cake]] for his wedding. They have warm dispositions and enjoy baking. Some affectionately refer to Mario as "mustache man." Despite being of a cold-adapted arctic species, Shiverians visit other kingdoms without issue once Peach has been rescued, including Tostarena.

|align=center|[[Snow Kingdom]], [[Moon Kingdom]], [[Darker Side]]{{footnote|main|A}}

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Shiverian Racer.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Shiverian Racer]]s {{chart icon|SMO-capture}}

|These Shiverians compete in the [[Bound Bowl Grand Prix]], a race where they bound along a circuit. Most Shiverian Racers are capped, but one self-doubting individual is not and can be captured. This allows Mario to compete in the grand prix. There are six competing Shiverian Racers, each one a different color and speed.

|align=center|[[Sand Kingdom]],{{footnote|main|D}} [[Snow Kingdom]]

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Shiverian Elder.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Shiverian Elder]]

|Snail-like people that run a seaside resort in Bubblaine. When first encountered, the boss [[Mollusque-Lanceur]] is drinking all of their [[Sparkle Water]], much to their dismay. Bubblainians are carefree and enjoy relaxation. They retract into their shells when jumped on or approached by an enemy. They can be encountered "breathing" freshwater, and can extend their eyestalks like scopes.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Coach.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Coach (Super Mario Odyssey)|Coach]]

|The [[Beach Volleyball (Super Mario Odyssey)|Beach Volleyball]] coach of Bubblaine. He encourages Mario to play when he approaches the court, and awards him Power Stars for keeping pace with him. Unlike other Bubblainians, the coach does not retract into his shell when Mario jumps on him, instead serving him like a volleyball. He calls Mario "volley bro."

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Dog.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Nintendog|Dog]]

|The dog only appears in a visited kingdom when its boss has been defeated. It leads Mario to [[glowing spot]]s and sniffs out Power Moons for him. It otherwise follows Mario and barks for him if he crosses a barrier that it cannot, such as a body of water. It cannot be harmed by enemies. The dog can play fetch with Mario, catching and returning Cappy after a Cap Throw, and occasionally appears inside the ''Odyssey''. It resembles a {{wp|Shiba Inu}}.

They are world-renowned for their cooking, which is made out of the giant vegetables, salts, and [[Meat (object)|meats]] that surround the volcano. Their most important dish, the [[Stupendous Stew]], is appropriated by Bowser and monopolized by [[Cookatiel]]. It is the main fixture of their annual Cooking Carnival, during which people from around the world are invited to try their stew. Most Volbonans sleep embedded into walls, suspended above ground. They can be captured in this state, and used to fling Mario across great distances like [[Pole (bollard)|pole]]s. Some actively encourage Mario to do this. Volbonans apparently have ears.<ref>{{cite|quote=That brook is sweet on the ears.|author=[[Volbonan]] in the [[Mushroom Kingdom (Super Mario Odyssey)|Mushroom Kingdom]]|title=''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'' by [[Nintendo EPD]]|format=North American Localization|date=2017|publisher=[[Nintendo of America]]}}</ref>

The exception is the Toad Brigade, who makes recurring appearances beforehand. They run a Crazy Cap inside their [[Starshroom]]. Hint Toad, Captain Toad, and Toadette are members of this team. [[Jammin' Toad]] gives Mario a Power Moon if he plays a specific piece from the [[List of Super Mario Odyssey in-game music|Music List]].

|Mario's younger twin brother and the host of [[Balloon World]]. Luigi initially appears in the Mushroom Kingdom after Princess Peach has been rescued, where he explains the premise of Balloon World when prompted. The more points Mario accumulates in Balloon World, the more balloons show up fastened to Luigi. He responses to his brother in different ways depending on the outfit he is wearing. If Mario is wearing a wedding outfit, Luigi mistakenly believes that he had recently gotten married and expresses dismay that he was not told.

Certain enemies wear different gear depending on the area they are found in. Enemies whose use is mandatory to advance, such as [[Capture|capturable]] enemies, respawn shortly after getting defeated or after being captured. De-capturing an enemy leaves it in a short dizzy state, which offers the player another chance to capture it before it disappears and respawns at the place it was first encountered.

|An airborne alien that circulates above the surface of the Moon. It attacks by shooting spiked seashell-like missiles at [[Mario]], which explode on contact with him or an object. Astro-Lanceurs can be knocked down with a [[Ground Pound]].

|A [[Poison Piranha Plant]] with increased proportions. It attacks by spitting large poison balls at Mario, which create broad poison puddles when they touch the ground. Although harmful to step on, these puddles can be cleared away by throwing [[Cappy]]. In order to defeat a Big Poison Piranha Plant, the player has to jump-attack its head, a process that can be made easier by having it hold Cappy in its mouth, resulting in it lowering its head to jumping height for Mario.

|A tiny creature covered in bristles. Burrbos naturally dwell under the ground, waiting for Mario's approach to attack him. They come in different colors but nevertheless attack the same by repeatedly lunging towards Mario. They can be simply defeated with a [[Cap Throw]].

|A mummified [[Tostarenan]] that is often encountered in dark areas. Chinchos emerge from the ground in large numbers and begin pursuing Mario on sight. If not attacked for a while, Chinchos retreat under the earth. A Cap Throw merely stuns Chinchos for a brief moment, but stomping on them or tussling them with a Jaxi can destroy them.

|A floating octopus enemy that inhabits a [[water]] ball, which it uses as a resource for its surging attack. When captured, Gushens can be used to spray water streams horizontally or vertically, offering powerful boosts of speed. Gushens are also capable of sending multiple water bursts in all directions, damaging surrounding enemies. Their water balls decrease as more water is used, but they can be recharged by coming into contact with a body of water.

|A tomato-looking enemy that attacks Mario by rolling towards him. If attacked, it turns into a small puddle of steaming fluid, which has the properties of [[lava]]. As a [[Lava Bubble]], Mario can plunge into such puddles, which is helpful for traversing large stretches of ground.

|A form of life originating from the Moon, resembling a bar of [[Spike Ball]]s rotating around an axis. While in general fixed to one spot, some Moonsnakes can move on predetermined paths. Moonsnakes are indestructible.

|A robotic vehicle that attacks by shooting small projectiles out of its turret. Sherms can be captured and maneuvered to destroy masses of [[block]]s and enemies. They can be defeated with a Ground Pound.

|align=center|[[File:SMO Artwork T-Rex.png|65px]]<br>[[T-Rex]]

|A [[dinosaur]] found in either very dark or sunny areas. Though a few individuals are harmless as they are always sleeping (and can be captured immediately), others roam around a set path, chasing Mario down when they spot him. In order to stun a T-Rex, it has to be lured into a large wall or tree as it charges at Mario, leaving it dizzy and ready to capture. While captured, the T-Rex can be used to effortlessly rampage through fossil blocks and large numbers of enemies. The enemy can only be temporarily used, as Cappy claims it is too large to handle. The only way to defeat a T-Rex is by having it drop into an [[pit|abyss]].

|A passive, although dangerous, enemy that moves by extending its body from one spot to another. The segments of its body are each topped by one spike, making the enemy impossible to jump on. Capturing a Tropical Wiggler enables Mario to make use of its stretching abilities, helpful for crossing over to other platforms. Although invincible for the most part, Tropical Wigglers can be defeated by having them fall into a pit of [[poison (obstacle)|poison]] or by throwing a [[hammer]] at them as a [[Hammer Bro]], as it can be seen in the Moon Kingdom.

|A malevolent plant with extendable feet. Uproots spawn from dirt manholes and roam around the surrounding area. When they spot Mario, they rush over to him and attack by springing themselves with their feet and assaulting him from above. When captured, Uproots can be used in a similar way to reach high areas and push up impeding platforms, as well as destroy rows of [[Brick Block]]s.

|An insect enemy that spawns from a larva. Urban Stingbies slowly patrol around a spot, quickly noticing Mario if he is in proximity. When attacking, Urban Stingbies take enough momentum to head violently into Mario, but they explode as they crash into something. The attack can affect other enemies. Urban Stingbies can be defeated one time by any sign of attack, including a [[jump]] or a Cap Throw.

|A younger Urban Stingby, which morphs into its mature variant shortly after appearing onscreen. Urban Stingby Larvae are completely inoffensive and can be defeated with a [[kick]].

|A large levitating robot that is equipped with a set of two or four spike bars, which it spins continuously around. The enemy drops an endless supply of [[Goomba]]s and [[Spike Ball]]s. The Goombas can be captured and be formed into a tower, enabling Mario to reach the top of the Yoofoe and pound it to deal damage. Two hits are necessary to bring a Yoofoe down, giving out a valuable item, such as a [[Power Moon]] or [[Life-Up Heart]].

|A large bullet enemy shot out of a [[Banzai Bill Cannon]]. It slowly swerves from its flight path, trying to home in on [[Mario]]. It explodes upon contact with any object, and Mario receives damage if hit by a Banzai Bill. However, the enemy can be defeated with a single [[stomp]]. Capturing a Banzai Bill allows Mario to cross wide pits or stretches of [[lava]] and dart effortlessly through series of enemies and breakable objects. However, after a while, the Banzai Bill starts to flash red and eventually self-destructs, dropping Mario off.

|An enemy launched by a [[Bill Blaster]]. A Bullet Bill always attempts to chase Mario. Should the Bullet Bill explode on him, Mario will be damaged. Bullet Bills can be lured to destroy cracked blocks that may contain items, such as [[coin]]s or [[Power Moon]]s. When captured, a Bullet Bill can be temporarily driven over to platforms located afar.

|A chain-linked enemy that tries to aggress Mario by lunging towards him. While dangerous to stay close to a Chain Chomp, Mario can [[jump]] on it safely, though without inflicting any damage. To defeat Chain Chomps, Mario should capture a [[T-Rex]] and stomp through them. When Mario [[capture]]s a Chain Chomp, he can extend the chain, then let go of the enemy to launch it in the opposing direction. This is useful for destroying breakable [[block]]s.

|An underwater enemy that swims on set paths. It can harm Mario upon contact; conversely, it can be defeated with a [[Ground Pound]]. When Mario captures a Cheep Cheep, he gains more swimming flexibility and also the ability to attack other enemies with a spin.

|A [[Koopa (species)|Koopa]] that attacks Mario by tossing fireballs. Fire Bros can be defeated with a stomp, or captured to offer the ability to shoot fireballs also. While in a Fire Bro's form, Mario can also jump higher than usual.

|A fire-spitting plant that always shoots in the direction of Mario. It can be defeated with a stomp, or by stuffing its mouth with Cappy and then [[kick]]ing it. Throwing a stone at a Fire Piranha Plant stuffs its mouth similarly but allows Mario to capture the enemy, gaining the ability to spit fireballs in any direction from a fixed position.

|A Koopa that attacks by throwing hard objects, such as [[hammer]]s and frying pans, at Mario. He gains the ability to throw these too after he captures one of these enemies. Capturing Hammer Bros. is important for breaking hard rock that might conceal valuable items.

|Unlike in previous ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' games, Koopa Troopas are peaceful NPCs found throughout several kingdoms; however, the ones seen in 8-bit murals are hostile. They walk from side to side and can damage Mario upon contact. Mario can jump on an 8-bit Koopa Troopa to make it retreat inside its [[shell]], then kick it to defeat enemies that stand in its way as it slides.

|An ominous enemy that dashes out of its hideout to snatch Mario whenever it spots him. Maw-Rays cannot be defeated.

|A smaller Goomba found among other members of the same species. Unlike in most ''Super Mario'' games, Mini Goombas are depicted as having yellow heads. Although harmful, they can be defeated with any kind of attack, including a Cap Throw. Mini Goombas are the first enemies encountered in the game.

|An undead Koopa Troopa with the ability to fly. It is initially found patrolling a spot peacefully, but once it finds Mario in its proximity, it starts chasing him to attack. Parabones collapse on the ground if stomped, but they revive shortly after—the only way to defeat a Parabones is to collapse it above lava or above an abyss. Parabones can be used to fly Mario over pits of lava that are otherwise difficult or impossible to pass.

|A hard-shelled Koopa that follows Mario when he is close, trying to ram its spikes onto him. This enemy cannot be defeated with common attack methods, including a Cap Throw, which merely pushes the enemy backward. However, this way, the Spiny can be brought to a ledge and fall into an abyss or [[poison (obstacle)|poison]]. Another way to defeat a Spiny is to poke it as a [[Pokio]] or to throw an object, such as a seed, at it. Spinies behave very similarly to [[Bully|Bullies]] in this game.

|align=center|As the leader of the [[Broodals]], Topper prances around the boss field, occasionally spinning his hats in a circle. To defeat him, [[Mario]] must knock all of his hats off using [[Cappy]], then [[jump]] on him. After being hit, Topper enters one of his hats and sends the others whirling around the field. Mario then has to repeat this process. In later fights, Topper has many more hats to knock off and takes three hits to defeat.

|align=center|[[File:SMO-HarietArtwork.jpeg|90px]]<br>[[Hariet]]

|align=center|Being the only girl among the Broodals, Hariet hops in place, throwing [[bomb]]s that explode into a puddle of [[lava]]. To defeat her, Mario must throw Cappy at the large bomb she throws, sending it to her, knocking off her hat, then jumping on her. After being hit, Harriet enters her hat and flies around the field, dropping bombs. Mario then has to repeat this process twice. In later fights, she throws two bombs at a time.

|align=center|Being the King of the [[Koopa (species)|Koopas]] himself, Bowser throws his hats at Mario. To defeat him, Mario must throw Cappy at the hat with punching gloves twice; make his way to Bowser, dodging his [[Spike Ball]]s and fire ring; and punch him. Mario has to repeat this process twice. In the later fights taking place in the Moon Kingdom, Bowser [[Fire Breath|breathes fire]] in a large circle after being hit. After those fights, Mario needs to [[capture]] Bowser in order to complete the section.

|align=center|Being a bird hungry for stew, Cookatiel coughs up vegetables. To defeat it, Mario must capture a [[Lava Bubble]] and swim up Cookatiel's vomit to reach its head. Mario has to repeat this process twice. In later fights, there are [[Moonsnake]]s in the stewpot.

|align=center|As the Lord of Lightning, the Ruined Dragon fires electric saws that roll around the field. To defeat him, Mario must dodge rings of lightning, remove all of the stakes from his head, and ground-pound where his helmet usually is, all in the short time that the dragon's head is down. Mario has to repeat this process twice. In later fights, the Ruined Dragon makes patterns of lightning rings that are more difficult to dodge.

|align=center|A giant mech owned by the [[Broodals]]. The RoboBrood fires bombs and rings as well as stamping its giant feet. To defeat it, Mario must capture a [[Pokio]] and poke the bombs back at it, making it fall over. Mario must then climb the robot, then poke at the nearest Broodal-containing dome. After being hit, the RoboBrood dashes with glowing feet across the field. Mario has to repeat this process three times. In later fights, Mario must capture a [[Hammer Bro]] instead of a Pokio.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Asset Model Goomba Button.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Goomba button]]

|Goomba buttons release Power Moons when triggered. One requires a certain number of [[Goomba]]s in a [[capture]]d [[Goomba Tower|tower]] to be pressed.

|Buttons that trigger nearby changes in the environment when ground-pounded. The starburst symbol on the button also appears on [[Astro-Lanceur]]s, [[Stairface Ogre]]s, and the ''[[Odyssey]]''.

|Striking a Hat Launcher with Cappy fires him in the direction it is facing and brings him farther than a normal Cap Throw would. Hat Launchers are generally needed to solve puzzles and access distant switches.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Bowser Brochure C.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Hole (Super Mario Odyssey)|Hole]]

|Indentations in soft walls. Some of them release a Power Moon or item when jabbed by a [[Capture#Pokio|captured Pokio]]'s beak. They apparently were used by archers at some point in the history of [[Bowser's Castle]].

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:Locked Panel SMO.jpg|100x100px]]<br>[[Locked panel|Keyhole Pedestal]]

|The pedestal breaks open and releases a Power Moon when a nearby [[key]] is collected.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:Lever Switch SMO.jpg|100x100px]]<br>[[Lever Switch]]

|Levers that physically change the surrounding area, usually by granting Mario access to a new area by making a door or bridge appear. It is pulled when struck by Cappy.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:Mysterious Cube SMO.jpg|100x100px]]<br>[[Moon Rock]]

|A Moon Rock appears in most of the kingdoms. Once [[Princess Peach]] has been rescued and all [[Multi Moon]]s have been collected, the Moon Rocks begin to glow and shift. Striking one sends it skyward, where it burst into a multitude of new [[Power Moon]]s to collect.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:P-Switch SMO.jpg|100x100px]]<br>[[P Switch]]

|Stepping on a P Switch changes an element in the immediate environment.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Scarecrow.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Scarecrow (object)|Scarecrow]]

|Striking a scarecrow leaves Mario without Cappy for a brief period of time. In the overworld, striking a scarecrow triggers a brief Timer Challenge with temporary platforms. In some subareas, Mario must navigate an obstacle course-like area without Cappy's abilities.

!colspan=3 style="background:#FF7733;"|Climbable objects

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Screenshot Bar.jpg|100x100px]]<br>[[Wire|Bar]]

|Horizontal bars embedded into the side of terrain. Mario can swing from them to reach distant areas.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Screenshot Vine.jpg|100x100px]]<br>[[Beanstalk]]

|A beanstalk grows when a [[Seed (Super Mario Odyssey)|giant seed]] is thrown into an enclosed patch of dirt. The plant can be clung to like a pole to hidden areas that would otherwise be inaccessible. Growing and climbing a beanstalk is the only way Mario can leave the Deep Woods.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Screenshot Pole.jpg|100x100px]]<br>[[Pole]]

|Mario clings to a pole by jumping onto it. He can ascend, descend, and change which face of the pole he is on by moving {{button|switch|leftstick}}. Pressing {{button|switch|a}} makes Mario jump from whichever face he is on. Poles vary widely in design, length, and shape. Cappy can twirl at the top of most poles, similar to other knob-like structures, and this sometimes produces a coin. Cables are sometimes strung between poles that Mario can ride along as a captured spark pylon. He can destroy poles as a captured T-Rex.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Screenshot Plaster Wall.jpg|100x100px]]<br>[[Soft wall]]

|The soft walls of Bowser's Castle can be pierced by a Pokio's beak and used to cross distant areas. They can be made of plaster, [[:File:SMO Screenshot Wood.jpg|wood]], or soft metal. Some moving sections look like [[rotating dial]]s and [[wooden pendulum|swinging pendulum]]s.

!colspan=3 style="background:#FF7733;"|Strikable objects

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO 8bit Cat Mario.png|50x50px]][[File:SMO 8bit Cat Peach.png|50x50px]][[File:SMO 8bit Rosalina.png|50x50px]]<br>[[File:SMO 8bit Luigi.png|50x50px]][[File:SMO 8bit Captain Toad.png|50x50px]]<br>[[8-bit character]]s

|Animated sprites that are hidden in 3D areas. Striking the ones found on walls causes them to release items. The most recurring sprites are Pixel Cat Marios and 8-bit Cat Peaches, which release 10 coins and a heart, respectively. 8-bit Rosalina only appears on the [[Dark Side]] and [[Darker Side]], releasing 10 coins just like Cat Mario. Pixel Cat Marios are also hidden in bushes on the general overworld. Pixel Luigis appear too, hidden underground. Finding one awards Mario with 200 coins. They were replaced with Pixel Captain Toads for limited period of time.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Screenshot Boombox.jpg|100x100px]]<br>[[Boombox]]

|Boomboxes play {{wp|Diegetic music|music within their immediate vicinity}}. During the main game, striking one briefly interrupts the music with the sound of [[Bowser]] laughing. After [[Princess Peach]] is rescued, striking a boombox instead makes it play "[[Jump Up, Super Star!]]" with Japanese lyrics.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Screenshot Flower (Spin Throw).jpg|100x100px]]<br>[[Flower (Spin Throw)]]

|Low-growing flowers that grow in rings. Tossing Cappy causes them to bloom briefly before closing again. Having all of the flowers bloom simultaneously rewards Mario with an item. Because most of these flowers grow in rings, the most effective way to cause concurrent blooming is to have Mario stand in the center and perform a [[Spin Throw]].

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Ruined Brochure C.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Glowing spot]]

|In most kingdoms, there are glowing protrusions on the ground that [[Nintendo Switch#Joy-Con|rumble]] under Mario's feet. Ground-pounding one flattens it with the surrounding terrain and forces an item or [[Mini Goomba]]s to the surface. Some glowing spots are more subtle, being flat with the surrounding ground or underneath another object. Glowing spots are what are most often hinted at on Hint Art, and the [[Nintendog|dog]] will Mario to ones nearby. Small birds sometimes congregate around glowing spots.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Hat Trampoline.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Hat Trampoline]]

|Hat Trampolines send Mario [[Spin Jump#Super Mario Odyssey|twirling]] into the sky and gently descend. Most of them are closed when encountered, but striking the red flower with Cappy or an attack from Mario causes it to open for a moment.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Screenshot Dispersible Objects.jpg|100x100px]][[File:SMO Screenshot Construction Barrel.jpg|100x100px]]<br>{{Conjectural|Kickable objects}}

|Light objects in the environment that are sent flying when [[kick]]ed or struck by Cappy, sometimes rewarding Mario with a coin. Most kingdoms have at least one iteration of this kind of object. Examples include: cardboard boxes, [[tire (object)|tires]], {{wp|construction barrel}}s, garbage bags, a {{wp|Ball (gridiron football)|gridiron football}}, tin cans, [[bean]]s, and small mushrooms. Some of these have unique properties to themselves. For example, carboard boxes are only launched when hit by Cappy. They can be stood on like platforms and flattened with a ground pound. Knocking garbage into a dumpster releases an item, and knocking a bean into Stupendous Stew awards Mario with a coin.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Screenshot Lamppost.jpg|100x100px]]<br>[[Knob-like structure]]s

|Protrusions in the environment. Striking one with Cappy gets him hooked to the top and swing around it as if it were a {{wp|hatstand}} until the player lets go of {{button|switch|y}}. Doing this often rewards Mario with a coin. If the knob-like structure is glowing, it releases a Power Moon once spun on. Each kingdom has multiple knob-like structures that match the surrounding topography. Examples include: {{wp|Street light|lampposts}}, walkway lights, [[airship]]s, horns, fountains, [[Jaxi Statue]]s, parking meters, fire hydrants, pumpkins, iron fences, spires, and the [[Tail Tree]]. Some structures have secondary behaviors. For example, an iron fence spews fire when Cappy spins on its top. Most climbable trees and poles have dual purposes as knob-like structures. The latter can be found on the [[Starshroom]] and the ''Odyssey''.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO 8bit Koopa Shell.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Koopa Shell]]

|[[Stomp]]ing on a [[Koopa Troopa|Koopa]] makes it recede into its shell, which can then be sent sliding on contact. A Koopa Shell bounces back when it collides with a wall, which can hurt Mario.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Screenshot Lantern.jpg|100x100px]]<br>[[Lantern]]

|Striking a lantern's flame extinguishes it and sometimes releases an item. Lighting the lanterns around [[Mount Volbono]] is needed to obtain some Power Moons and gain access to certain areas.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Cap Brochure C.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Stump|Post]]

|Ground-pounding a post embeds it into the earth and sometimes releases a coin. Striking one with Cappy pulls it from the ground, and sometimes causes more coins to appear. Dislodging posts sometimes causes more substantial changes in the area.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Screenshot Rock (Breakable).jpg|100x100px]][[File:SMO Luncheon Brochure C.png|100x100px]]<br>Rock wall / [[Cheese|Cheese rock]]

|These walls are chipped away when struck by a projectile, such as a [[Hammer Bro]]'s [[frying pan]] or a [[Sherm]]'s bullets. The walls sometimes obscure pipes and Power Moons.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Garbage.jpg|100x100px]]<br>{{Conjectural|Rockable objects}}

|Objects that rock slightly when struck by Cappy or jumped on, but are not sent flying and fall back into place. Hitting one sometimes releases a coin. Most kingdoms have an iteration of this object that matches the topography. Examples include: potted succulents, construction barriers, [[bin]]s, trashcans, tables, [[barrel]]s, and easels.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Screenshot Slots.jpg|100x100px]]<br>[[Slots]]

|A game hosted by [[Tostarenan]]s in several kingdoms. Individual slots cycle between three images of an item. Striking the image projected by a single slot causes it to stop. Getting all slots to stop on the same image rewards Mario with the item.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Screenshot Snow.jpg|100x100px]]<br>[[Snow]]

|The deep snow in Shiveria is cleared when Cappy is thrown through it. Some snow conceals doors and objects of interest.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Screenshot Stone Wall.jpg|100x100px]]<br>[[Stone wall]]

|The stone walls in Fossil Falls break apart when struck by a [[Chain Chomp]] or rammed by a [[T-Rex]]. Doing so grants access to other areas or exposes secrets. The [[stone spire]] is held upright by stone walls and collapses when struck by a captured Chain Chomp. Stone walls are embedded with fossils and some are shaped like dinosaur vertebrae.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Screenshot Sword.jpg|100x100px]]<br>Sword

|The swords in Crumbelden are buried to the hilt. Like a post, Cappy pulls one from the ground when he is thrown at it, sometimes rewarding Mario with a coin. Some of these swords are used to hold a giant {{wp|kabuto}} to the [[Ruined Dragon]]'s head. Pulling all of the swords causes the kabuto to fall off, exposing the dragon's weak point.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Wedding Announcement Poster.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Poster (object)|Wedding announcement poster]]

|Posters promoting [[Bowser's Moon Wedding]], splayed on the walls of the surrounding area. Striking one makes it fall away and rewards Mario with a coin. The posters advertising the Cooking Carnival in [[Peronza Plaza]] behave the same way.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Screenshot Yellow Turnstile.jpg|100x100px]]<br>[[Yellow turnstile]]

|Yellow turnstiles occur in areas accessed by Moon Pipes. Striking one of its walls makes it rotate 90°.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Binoculars.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Binoculars]] {{chart icon|SMO-capture}}

|Green, telescopic devices. Capturing one causes the head-like unit to launch into the sky like a rocket and give Mario a distant, adjustable view. Zooming in on certain targets makes a Power Moon appear.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Screenshot Boulder.jpg|100x100px]]<br>[[Boulder]] {{chart icon|SMO-capture}}

|A giant rock in the Deep Woods. Capturing the boulder allows Mario to move it, granting access to a hidden alcove.

|Only one of the stone Bowser statues in the Underground Moon Cavern is capturable. Shifting it exposes a hole containing a Power Moon.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Cactus.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Cactus]] {{chart icon|SMO-capture}}

|Desert plants that damage Mario on contact, leaving needles embedded in his nose. Most cactuses are squat and round. Striking one of them with Cappy knocks it away and releases a coin. Knocking one into another cactus can cause a [[:File:SMO Screencap Cactus.gif|chain reaction]], where the last cactus drops eight coins. Tall cactuses also appear that are only knocked away when struck by the Jaxi. One near the [[Desert Oasis (Super Mario Odyssey)|Desert Oasis]] is covered with small birds and can be captured. Moving it exposes a glowing spot.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Artwork Jizo.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Jizo]] {{chart icon|SMO-capture}}

|Most Jizo are found near the [[Bowser's Kingdom#Souvenir Shop|Souvenir Shop]]. Mario is invincible as a captured Jizo and resembles his [[Statue Mario|Statue form]] from previous games. It is heavy enough to trigger P Switches, but can only move in short hops.  

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Asset Model Letter.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Letter (Super Mario Odyssey)|Letter]] {{chart icon|SMO-capture}}

|Five letter statues appear in [[Metro Kingdom#City Outskirts/Main Street Entrance|Squawks Park]] after Princess Peach has been rescued. Capturing each one and arranging them to spell "M-A-R-I-O" rewards Mario with a Power Moon.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Screenshot Manhole.jpg|100x100px]]<br>[[Manhole]] {{chart icon|SMO-capture}}

|Some manholes block access to underground areas in New Donk City. Capturing one enables Mario to move it out of the way. The big green manhole blocks access to the [[Underground Power Plant]].

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:Meat cracked SMO.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Meat (object)|Meat]] {{chart icon|SMO-capture}}

|A piece of meat sits at the top of the [[Luncheon Kingdom#Meat Plateau|Meat Plateau]], encrusted with salt. Capturing it enables Mario to shake the salt off and attract Cookatiel. This is the only capture that can only be captured once. It is not present in subsequent revisits to Mount Volbono.

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Asset Model Mini Rocket.png|100x100px]]<br>[[Mini Rocket]] {{chart icon|SMO-capture}}

|align=center style="background:#FFFFFF"|[[File:SMO Screenshot Pole (Bollard).jpg|100x100px]]<br>[[Pole (bollard)|Pole]] {{chart icon|SMO-capture}}

|Roadside bollards. Capturing one and flicking backward with {{button|switch|leftstick}} flings Mario in the opposite direction.
