A Rocket Flower Refresh is a method of refreshing the timer of a Rocket Flower without returning to the pickup area, allowing Mario to travel indefinitely without it expiring.

Performance

There are three known methods to perform a Rocket Flower Refresh. The first is the grounpound method. To perform the ground pound method:

  • Pick up a rocket flower
  • Spinthrow
  • Immediately after the spinthrow, perform a groundpound

If done properly, the spinthrow will bring the rocket flower back to mario and the flower will be recycled

The second method is the bonk method. To perform the bonk method:

  • Pick up a rocket flower
  • Spinthrow
  • Immediately after the spinthrow, bonk

If done properly, the spinthrow will bring the rocket flower back to mario and the flower will be recycled

The final and by far the hardest method is the "2 frame method". This method is perfect to only a few frames so it is very difficult to be consistent at it. To perform the 2 frame method:

  • Pick up a rocket flower
  • Approach a moon
  • Spinthrow/Upthrow
  • Obtain the moon

If done properly, the spinthrow/upthrow will bring the rocket flower back to mario and the flower will be recycled
