There are three Rainbow Ms, all of which are found only in [[Delfino Plaza]]. The first wasis painted by Shadow Mario to escape Mario after he foiled the former's first attempt to kidnap [[Princess Peach]] in Delfino Plaza. This one was painted on the base of the [[Grand Pianta Statue]], and it leads to [[Bianco Hills]]. Two more Rainbow Ms can be found on the side of the [[boathouse]], (leading to [[Ricco Harbor]]), and on the front of the [[lighthouse]], (leading to [[Gelato Beach]]). These Rainbow Ms appear only after the [[Polluted Piranha Plant]]s covering the buildings have been defeated. Sirena Beach and Pianta Village's similar Level Gates are located on top of a building located behind the Grand Pianta Statue (where it is plugged up by a large [[pineapple]] at the start of the game), and on top of the [[Shine Gate]].

To activate a Rainbow M, Mario has to squirt [[water]] on it using [[F.L.U.D.D.|FLUDD]], after which it becomes a portal to its corresponding location. TheHe [[goop]]can that comprises the Rainbow Ms is also found inside two redthen [[Warp Pipejump]]s: one on top of a building located behind the Grand Pianta Statue (whereinto it is plugged up by a large [[pineapple]] at the start of the game), and one on top of the [[Shine Gate]]. These Warp Pipes provide access to [[Sirena Beach]] and [[Pianta Village]], respectively.
