Poison Mushrooms made their debut in ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'' and has become a recurring item in later ''Mario'' games. They are mushrooms that deceptively resemble the [[Super Mushroom]], but with a duller color scheme and angry eyes. In later ''Mario'' games, the Poison Mushroom's cap design features a skull-faced pattern and/or a purple color scheme.

They are mushrooms that deceptively resemble the [[Super Mushroom]], but with a duller color scheme and angry eyes. In ''Super Mario All Stars'', the Poison Mushroom's cap was redesigned, featuring  a skull-faced pattern. Later games starting with [[s|mariowiki| Mario hoops 3 on 3]] adopted a purple-magenta cap abandoning the skull cap in the process.


Poison Mushrooms are known for being a harmful variety of Mushrooms where touching one will cause the player to take damage or lose a life. If a player in their [[Fire Flower]] power-up forms comes into contact with one, then they will revert back to their original small forms. If a player in their small forms comes into contact with one, then they will lose a life. In later ''Mario'' games, they can follow the player around like an enemy.
Poison Mushrooms are known for being a harmful variety of Mushrooms where touching one will cause the player to take damage or lose a life. In the Japanese ''Super Mario Bros. 2''and its later re-rerelases, if a player was Fire Mario or Fire Luigi and came into contact with a Poison Mushroom, they go immediately to their small forms, though this doesn't apply to later games that featured it. If a player in their small forms comes into contact with one, then they will lose a life. In ''Super Mario 3D Land'' , they follow the player around, like the Goombas in in said game.


The {{s|mariowiki|Mini Mushroom}}, introduced in ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Party 4}}'' (better known for their appearance in the ''{{s|mariowiki|New Super Mario Bros.}}'' series), has an identical function to Poison Mushrooms as they are depicted in ''Smash'', but are treated more as regular power-ups than a threat, allowing characters floatier movements and the ability to squeeze into tighter areas.
