Like a classic Whomp, Whomp Mario can attack his enemies by falling over and trying to crush them. Whomp Mario also can kill low monsters like Goombas or Octoombas simply by hustle them. He is also insensitive to normal Fireballs, Iceballs, or Lemmy's balls, thrown by the Ball Bro. Once crashed on the ground, Whomp Mario must wait a few seconds to stand up. He will turn back into Super Mario if a powerfull enemy like Chomps, Piranha Plants, the differents Bros. (Hammer Bro., Boomerang Bro. ...) or other Whomps hurt it; or if he fails three times to crush enemies. Luigi can also use the Whomp Mushroom.
