To perform Moon Cavern Skip,

To perform Moon Cavern Skip:

* Either groundpound, backflip or sideflip off the Sphynx's head

* Either groundpound, backflip or sideflip off the Sphynx's head;

* Wall jump ~~in the "L" shape made by the normal surface~~ of the wall ~~(See image)~~

* Wall jump off of a certain spot on the wall behind the Sphynx;

* Hold straight left until ~~mario~~ grabs the wall

* Hold straight left until Mario grabs the wall on the left;

* Wall jump again ~~to reach~~ the ~~platform~~

* Wall jump again, throw Cappy and dive on top of the back wall.

== ~~Uses~~ in runs ==

== Usage in runs ==

This is used in all categories that ~~needs to go~~ through Moon Kingdom.

This is used in virtually all categories that progress through Moon Kingdom in any way. In categories such as [[Any%]] and [[World Peace]], the skip saves a massive amount of time by eliminating the need to enter the caverns entirely.

In the case of [[100%]], [[All Moons]] and [[Darker Side]], this ~~saves time by allowing~~ the player to finish Moon Kingdom quickly ~~on the first pass~~ and come back ~~a second time~~ to ~~allow~~ the ~~player to grab remaining~~ moons from the ~~first pass combined with the~~ moons ~~that spawns~~ from ~~achieving peace in~~ the ~~kingdom~~.

In the case of [[100%]], [[All Moons]] and [[Darker Side]], this skip allows the player to finish the Moon Kingdom quickly and then come back later to collect moons inside the caverns (including moons that spawn from the [[Moon Rock]]). Even in categories that require moons from inside the caverns to be collected, the skip saves time by skipping the long [[Madame Broode]] boss fight at the top of the cavern interior.
