A red and white-capped mushroom with eyes on its stem; the Poison Mushroom is the only Status item that weakens the player who touches it. It originates from the Japanese version of ''Super Mario Bros. 2''. The Poison Mushroom causes the player to shrink to about one quarter his/her original size, making it easier to be knocked out of the arena and have signifigantly weaker attacks. The reason anyone would try to get this item is because it is very similar to the benevolent Super Mushroom, although a close look will reveal that the Poison Mushroom is more purple than the good type and has an angry face. Like the Super Mushroom, merely walking over this item will cause the player to grab it. A player can be small and hold other items.

== Recovery Items ==
==Recovery Items==
 
These items will help you reduce damage. You should always go for these, as they are extremely useful.
These items recover health.


;Food
;Food
Small pictures of various food items of many types from the kirby games. Each piece of food restores about 3 to 8 points of the player's health. Although this may not seem like much, if you get a buffet from a Party Ball you can really recover damage. A player can grab any health item, such as food, while holding another item. Food is also carried by Shyguys in the ''Yoshi's Story'' stage. On a side note, the regular "mushroom" Food went on to be the Dried Shroom item in ''Paper Mario 2: The Thousand-Year Door''.

;Maxim Tomato
;Heart Container
A large tomato with an "M" printed on it from the ''Kirby'' series. It is similar to the Heart Container, although weaker, restoring 50 points of damage to the player who eats it, which is still a lot. It was stronger in the original N64 ''Super Smash Bros'', where it healed the eater up to 100 points of damage.
A translucent heart shape in a silver frame, from the [[:Category:The Legend of Zelda|Legend of Zelda series]]. Grabbing a Heart Container will remove up to 100 points of damage from a player, which can turn the tides of a fight. This is actually less than how much it helped in the Nintendo 64 [[Super Smash Bros.]], where Heart Containers fully revealed your health. In All-Star mode, where health items are only find between stages, Heart Containers are back at their prime, refueling all your health.
