'''Grass''' is a common world element encountered in various [[Mario (series)|''Mario'' titles]], but they only serve actual importance to the gameplay of the game, ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. In ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', tall blades of grass emerging from the ground would mean that the [[player]] could pull on them to pull out a [[vegetable]]. Other items blades of grass could contain underneath the ground include [[Magic Potion]]s, [[Bomb (item)|Bomb]]s, [[Small Heart]]s, [[Red Shell]]s, [[Stopwatch]]es, [[Coin]]s or [[Rocket]]s.
'''Grass''' is a common world element encountered in various [[Mario (franchise)|''Mario'' titles]], and first appears as a gameplay mechanic in ''[[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. In most appearances, characters can pull up the grass to obtain and use various items.
 
==History==
Inspired by their function in ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', grass returns as an [[item]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U]]''. When a player pulls on blades of grass emerging from the floor of the stage, any random item will be plucked into the player's hands. Grass has a brownish coloring in this game.
===''Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic'' / ''Super Mario Bros. 2''===
In ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', Mario and company can pull on tall blades of red grass (black in ''[[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic]]'') emerging from the ground by pressing {{button|nes|B}}. While this often pulls out a [[vegetable]], it can also pull out several other objects: [[Magical Potion]]s, [[Bomb (object)|bombs]], [[Bob-omb|Bob-Omb]]s, [[Red Shell|shell]]s, [[Stop Watch]]es, [[coin]]s (in [[Subspace]] only), or [[Rocket]]s. ''Super Mario Advance'' also adds [[Small heart|Heart Radish]]es and large [[turnip]]s called '''Giant Vegetables''', which take longer to pull out. They work just like their normal-sized counterparts, but can hit more enemies, due to their bigger size.
 
===''Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3''===
Grass returns in ''Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3'' as an [[E-Reader]] exclusive feature: scanning the [[Blue Green Switch]] will activate grass patches with vegetables below them in the main game. They also appear by default in several [[World-e]] levels - namely [[Vegetable Volley]], [[The ol' Switcheroo]], [[A Sky-High Adventure]], [[Ice Cubed]], [[Ground Work]] and [[Treacherous Halls]]. The grass is colored green to match the vegetable leaves, and turnips are the only vegetables to appear; they are found in both their unripe and ripe forms, as well as the giant turnip that was introduced in ''Super Mario Advance''. Some grass patches also hide single coins, five coins, [[1-Up Mushroom]]s, or even [[e-Coin]]s or [[Poison Mushroom]]s (in Vegetable Volley only), or [[Monty Mole]]s (in Ground Work only).
 
===''Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker''===
In ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'' and its Nintendo Switch and Nintendo 3DS [[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker (Nintendo Switch / Nintendo 3DS)|ports]], grass is replaced by [[Pluck Patch]]es, which work the same way.

[[File:Grass ArtworkSSB4 -Wii Super Mario 3D WorldU.pngjpg|thumb|rightleft|BladesA tuft of grass fromin ''[[Super MarioSmash 3DBros. Worldfor Wii U]]''.]]
In the ''Super Smash Bros.'' games, grass tufts first appear in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' as 2D background decorations in [[Mushroom Kingdom II]], using their appearance from ''Super Mario Bros. 2''. Peach also has an attack, the [[Vegetable (move)|Vegetable]], that acts as her down special and mimics the function of grass in previous appearances to pull up vegetables from the ground.

===''Mario Golf'' series===
Grass also has an important role in the [[Mario Golf (series)|''Mario Golf'' series]], where it acts as the lie of the ball, and determines the size of the impact bar. It comes in the form of the [[Fairway]], [[Fast Fairway]], [[Rough]], [[Rough#Heavy Rough|Heavy Rough]] and the [[Green]]. Grass also serves a purpose in [[Mario Tennis (series)|''Mario Tennis'' games]] as a [[Grass Court|court]] with fast speed and low bounce.

|''This special grass first appeared in Super Mario Bros. 2, where plucking it revealed hidden items. It works exactly the same way in Smash Bros.-if you pluck the grass, maybe you'll find a game-changing object! If only cleaning an unkempt lawn would reveal such neat things... ''
|''A patch of overgrown grass with an item buried underneath. Grass like this grew all over the place in Super Mario Bros. 2, and Mario and co. could pull it up to get all kinds of handy items for their quest. It works the same way in this game: pull it up to get an item. Who knows what it'll be?''
