Attack Potency: Multi-Continent level (Can harm characters who can withstand attacks from Reshiram, who can scorch the world with fire[1]), higher with Final Smash (Far stronger than his normal attacks) | Universe level+ (Fought and defeated Galeem and Dharkon, who are individually capable of crushing the universe in a short period of time.

Speed: Immeasurable (Can keep up with the rest of the cast, who were able to briefly react to Galeem's rays of light[2] to different degrees, such as Link parrying some of them or Kirby outpacing them with a Warp Star. All combatants can also use a Warp Star to quickly crash-land on targets, and it's possible for them to react to and dodge it)

Range: Standard Melee Range, Several Meters with fireballs, Tens of Meters with Mario Finale, varies depending on the item, up to Hundreds of Meters with items (Some Items, like Timer and Lightning, can affect even the largest stages, like Palutena's Temple)
Standard Equipment: Cape, F.L.U.D.D.
- Optional Equipment: Spirits, Skill Tree, Equipment, Powers, and Items
Intelligence: Above Average, likely Gifted in combat (Mario is a highly skilled and experienced fighter, being able to wield a wide range of items and weaponry both magical and high-tech in nature. He's also fought on-par with combatants who come from many walks of life, and possess diverse skills, and abilities)
Weaknesses: Using his forcefield for too long will cause it to break and stun him
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
- Fireball: Mario throws a Fireball. The Fireball bounces along the ground several times before disappearing. Despite its low damage, it is good for controlling space when performed in the air because Mario retains full aerial mobility throughout the move. Because the Fireball is subject to gravity, it can be used to cover Mario while recovering high, and can combo into quick attacks if Mario is close enough.
- Cape: Dons a Cape around his neck and waves it in front of himself. It reflects projectiles and reverses enemies, as well as reversing the opponent's controls for a brief instant. In the air, it causes a Fall Break by stalling Mario in the air, allowing for timing mixups in juggle and recovery situations. Useful for gimping opponents who are trying to recover.
- Super Jump Punch: jumping uppercut that produces Star Coins or Metro Kingdom regional coins on contact. Mario's only recovery move, but it leaves him helpless. Its extremely fast startup (frame 3) and intangibility frames on startup make it useful as an out of shield option. Can KO near the upper blast line, making it a good combo finisher out of a ladder. Can be angled to slightly change the direction it travels in.
- F.L.U.D.D.:Wields F.L.U.D.D. to launch a stream of water in front of himself. F.L.U.D.D. can be charged to create a larger stream and its charge time is rather fast. It can also be charge canceled and stored for later. The water pushes opponents, but does not damage them. Mario can change the angle of the stream upwards or downwards. Useful for edgeguarding, disrupting an approach and creating space, which can help alleviate pressure and potentially put his opponent in a vulnerable position. It also slightly pushes Mario backward if charged sufficiently, which further supplements its utility for creating space.
- Mario Finale: Rears his arms back before thrusting them forward to generate and launch two gigantic Fireballs, which trap and repeatedly damage any opponents in their path. Deals almost no knockback, but has decent damage and can carry opponents off the side of the stage when near the ledge.
