'''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.

'''Grass''' is a common world element encountered in various [[Mario (franchise)|''Mario'' titles]], but they only serve actual importance to the gameplay of ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. In ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', the player could pull on tall blades of red (black in ''[[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic]]'') grass emerging from the ground (by pressing {{button|nes|B}}) to pull out a [[vegetable]]. Other items grass could contain include [[Magical Potion]]s, [[Bomb (object)|bombs]], [[Small heart|Heart Radish]]es (in ''[[Super Mario Advance]]'' only), [[Red Shell|shell]]s, [[Stop Watch]]es, [[coin]]s (in [[Subspace]] only), or [[Rocket]]s. ''Super Mario Advance'' also adds 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.
 
==History==
Grass later returns in ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', as 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]]. Note that in this game, only turnips appear, 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 coins (either a single one or a bunch of them), or, in Ground Work only, [[Monty Mole]]s. Grass is colored green in this game, matching the leaves on the vegetables plucked.

===''Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker''===
In ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'', grass is replaced by [[Pluck Patch]]es, which work the same way.
 
===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
[[File:Grass SSB4 Wii U.jpg|thumb|left|A tuft of grass in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for 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.
 
Grass later appears as an actual [[List of items|item]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' / ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U|Wii U]]''. When a player pulls on blades of grass emerging from the floor of the stage, any random item that can normally spawn will be plucked into the player's hands, with status or recovery items activating immediately upon being plucked.
While vegetables made their 3D ''Mario'' debut in ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'', grass is replaced by [[Pluck Patch]]es, which work the same way. A very similar element to grass is the [[Item Handle]] from ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'', which works the same way.
 
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', grass returns as an item and also reappears on the Mushroom Kingdom II stage, with their design now more similar to ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]''.{{br|left}}
Grass tufts appear in [[Mushroom Kingdom II]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', though they are mere 2D background decorations. Inspired by its function in ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', grass returns as an [[List of items|item]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' / ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U|Wii U]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. 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, with status or recovery items activating immediately upon being plucked. However, vegetables cannot be plucked from grass, although that is [[Vegetable (move)|Peach's down special move]]. Grass has a reddish coloring in these games. As Mushroom Kingdom II returns in ''Ultimate'', the grass tufts there also return, though their look is more accurate towards ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]''.
 
===''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.
