Changes Mario into Frog Mario. In this form, Mario can swim in straight lines without constantly being pulled down by gravity, so he can move in more precise lines; he can also fight the push of air bubbles from pipes, allowing him to reach secret rooms. This is useful for water levels; on dry land, he can jump higher than normal, but cannot run fast. Unlike with other suits, when Frog Mario is underwater, you must hold A instead of B to swim more quickly. You should probably use a Frog Suit in the second fortress of World 3, as it will help you swim in straight lines between, above, and below the Stretches; and, in level 7-4, as it will help you swim in a straight line between the groups of Jelectros. | Changes Mario into Frog Mario.

Allows Mario to skip a level.

Note that if an airship hides where you can't reach it, you will have to complete the level to get to it. Also, if you use a Lakitu's cloud to skip one level, then die on the next, you will be sent back, possibly to before the level you skipped, so you would have to do it anyway. Going through a warp pipe directly after you use the cloud will prevent this; you will merely be sent back to the pipe you most recently originated from. | ||
