Minimum Mario Any%: Difference between revisions

Added required moons section and Theories section. Removed Mario moons section and relocated the content in there to the corresponding new section. Still need to add more things.
Added sub headers for kingdoms in Required moons and expanded Sand and Metro stuff. Ill add stuff for Lake, Luncheon, and maybe Snow, and Bowser's later.

''Our First Power Moon'' can be most easily collected by first doing [[First Moon Skip]], going to and capturing the [[Dino]], and then going back and collecting the Moon as the T-rex.

''Multi Moon Atop the Falls'' is then collected with a Chain Chomp, by performing [[Chain Chomp displacement]] on [[1.0.0]], or [[Death Chain Chomp displacement]] on any later version.

In [[Sand Kingdom]], more than one capture can obtain the moons ''Inside a Block Is a Hard Place'', ''Alcove in the Ruins'', ''Top of a Dune'', ''Wandering Cactus'', and ''Bird Traveling the Desert''. The [[Bullet Bill] must be used to collect ''Overlooking the Desert Town'', ''On the Leaning Pillar'', ''On Top of the Stone Archway'', ''Bullet Bill Breakthrough'' and ''From a Crate in the Ruins''. However, ''From a Crate in the Ruins'' can only be collected after ''Atop the Highest Tower'', which is the first Mario moon, because the moving pyramid platforms are used to lower a Bullet Bill. ''Atop the Highest Tower'' then also spawns the [[Moe-Eyes]], which must be used to collect ''Hidden Room in the Flowing Sands'', ''Where the Birds Gather'', ''Lost in the Luggage'', ''Herding Sheep in the Dunes'', and ''Among the Five Cactuses''. This adds up to 16 moons possible in the first visit, and since Sand requires 16 to leave, all of these must be collected.
=== Sand Kingdom ===
 
The first Mario moon in the run is ''Atop the Highest Tower'', which is collected to spawn the Moe-Eyes and the moving inverted pyramid platforms.
 
The [[Bullet Bill]]s must be used to collect ''On the Leaning Pillar'', ''On Top of the Stone Archway'', ''Bullet Bill Breakthrough'', ''Overlooking the Desert Town'', and ''From a Crate in the Ruins''. The first three moons are trivial, but the latter two require slopes to raise or lower the Bullet Bill, and the fast Bullet Bill acceleration glitch. ''Overlooking the Desert Town'' uses a ground pound spot in the ruins<ref>https://youtu.be/hq_Wo-vJBt4?t=146</ref> and ''From a Crate in the Ruins'' uses one of the pyramid platforms<ref>https://youtu.be/C5s2LtlQ_Ng?t=206</ref> that only spawn after ''Atop the Highest Tower'' is obtained.
 
Moe-Eye Escape must be used to collect ''Hidden Room in the Flowing Sands'', ''Where the Birds Gather'', ''Lost in the Luggage'', ''Herding Sheep in the Dunes'', and ''Among the Five Cactuses''. ''Hidden Room in the Flowing Sands'' can be collected by clipping a Moe-Eye out-of-bounds with either [[Platform clip]] or by getting it pushed using the 2D pipe.<ref>https://x.com/GamesJam8216/status/1623863282024218624</ref> When obtaining ''Herding Sheep in the Dunes'', the Jaxi can be used to get the Moe-Eye out of the Sheep pen<ref>https://x.com/GamesJam8216/status/1623135845980188672</ref> otherwise Moe-Eye Escape would have to be done again. Since there is no known way to get a Moe-Eye out of the Oasis, ''Where the Birds Gather'' should be obtained last that way Moe-Eye escape is only required once in Any%.
 
The moons ''Inside a Block Is a Hard Place'', ''Alcove in the Ruins'', and ''Top of a Dune'' can be collected with either a Moe-Eye or Bullet Bill, and ''Bird Traveling the Desert'' can be collected with one of those captures or also the [[Spark pylon]].
 
''Wandering Cactus'' can be either collected with a Moe-Eye or on versions [[1.2.0]] and later, the Cactus can collect the moon.
 
This adds up to 15 possible capture moons in the first visit, plus one Mario moon, for a total of 16. Since Sand requires 16 moons to leave, all of these must be collected.
 
=== Metro Kingdom ===
 
In [[Metro Kingdom]], before entering the [[Mechawiggler]] fight, it is currently proven possible to collect ''Inside an Iron Girder'' and ''Girder Sandwich'', both as a [[Goomba]]. These two moons must be collected in Night Metro since they are not obtainable as a capture during scenario 2. ''Girder Sandwich'' uses [[Stingby storage]] to bounce on Stingbys as a Goomba, to navigate to the moon.<ref>https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2032792726</ref>
 
After obtaining ''New Donk City's Pest Problem'', which is only possible as Mario, it is then possible to collect both moons in [[Under Siege]], both moons in [[Bullet Billding]], ''Remotely Captured Car'', and ''Found with Metro Kingdom Art'', which adds up to six more capture moons. ''One Man's Trash...'' is obtainable by collecting it while the moon is spawning.<ref>https://youtu.be/hq_Wo-vJBt4?t=303</ref>
 
Since nine more moons are required to get the total 20, required to leave Metro, it is optimal to collect the remaining eight [[Story moon|story moons]], which are only possible as Mario. This then puts the Kingdom in peace, so ''Caught Hopping on a Building!'', which is unlocked in peace, can be collected with a Spark pylon. This is done by spawning the moon close enough to the pylon so that it can home into the moon.<ref>https://x.com/xiivler/status/1294352724813783040</ref>
 
Peace also unlocks more capture moons for [[Minimum Mario Max Moons]] as the [[Letter]] captures appear during postgame.
