As a [[clone]] of a {{SSB4|Mario}}, Dr. Mario is a [[Weight|middleweight]] that can [[wall jump]]. Like his normal self, Dr. Mario also has excellent frame data: when not counting [[special move]]s, the overall start-up lag of his normal moveset is the fifth fastest in the game. As a result, Dr. Mario is both difficult to [[punish]] and very effective at punishing. Although they share an overwhelming number of animations and even the exact same [[falling speed]], [[fast fall]]ing speed, [[traction]] and [[gravity]], Dr. Mario nevertheless has a number of traits that differ from his normal self. Like Mario, Dr. Mario's height is below-average; oddly, however, he is marginally shorter in comparison and does not [[crouch]] as low as his normal self. | As a [[clone]] of a {{SSB4|Mario}}, Dr. Mario is a [[Weight|middleweight]] that can [[wall jump]].

Unlike in ''Melee'', Dr. Mario now fights like a stronger, yet slower Mario. | Unlike in ''Melee'', Dr. Mario now fights like a stronger, yet slower Mario. This is accomplished by using [[equipment]] physics: Dr. Mario is naturally considered to have +15 Attack and -50 Speed, giving him 0.832x [[walk]]ing and [[dash]]ing speeds, 0.808x [[air speed]], [[air acceleration]], and [[jump]] height, and 1.12x damage dealt for all his normal attacks.<ref name="DamageMultiplier">[http://smashboards.com/threads/complete-hitbox-frame-data-for-every-character-now-with-ko-percents.383550/ Complete Hitbox/Frame Data For Every Character (Now with KO Percents)]</ref> Although Dr. Mario's shorter jump height makes his [[short hop]] more effective than Mario's, these modified attributes collectively render his overall mobility sub-par. Conversely, the damage boost results in Dr. Mario being noticeably more efficient at KOing in comparison to Mario, as his smash attacks, clean forward aerial, clean back aerial, and clean [[Super Jump Punch]] are all excellent KOing options. | ||
Other noticeable differences between Dr. Mario and Mario are seen in their movesets and, by extension, their playstyles. Although Dr. Mario's frame data is only marginally slower than Mario's, his higher overall damage output and overall slower mobility make him unable to use a healthy balance of offense and defense like his normal self. Instead, Dr. Mario is much better suited to a bait and punish playstyle. On a related note, Dr. Mario's combo game is less varied and consistent compared to his normal self's. Despite this, his combos deal respectable damage in spite of their fairly short lengths, similarly to {{SSB4|Ike}}'s. | Other noticeable differences between Dr. Mario and Mario are seen in their movesets and, by extension, their playstyles.
