Poison Mushroom

The Poison Mushroom is an item appearing in Super Smash Bros. Melee. This item is a conditional item, so other items can be used while under it's effect.It is based on the poison mushroom in Super Mario Bros: The Lost Levels that killed Mario or Luigi when touched. However in Melee the mushroom shrinks the player. For most characters, their voice becomes very high pitched while under its effect. Characters run slower, have weaker attacks and get knocked back further after obtaining this item. The effect of the Poison lasts about 10 seconds. The poison mushroom looks very similar to the Super Mushroom except its more purple in color and its eyes look angry.
