Power-Up Mount	comment	A video game trope, mostly related to Platform Games. A Power-Up Mount is sort of like a power-up item plus Mon. It is an animal (usually adorable) that the main character can ride on. Riding on a power-up mount usually does one or more of the following: Grants another hit point in the case of a One-Hit-Point Wonder. Usually, getting hit while on it will kill it or cause it to flee. Gives the player an alternate means of travel. Faster running, flight, gliding, digging, climbing, riding on lava, and swimming are all typical examples. Gives the player a new means of attack related to the steed: long tongue for lizards, fire for dragons, boxing gloves for kangaroos, and so on. Will overlap with Horse of a Different Color.

Power-Up Mount / int_12e3da65	comment	Castlevania: Lords of Shadow has four kinds of mounts available: Swamp Troll, Giant Spider, Warg, and Pan (Using a horse form), the former three being enemies that are encountered many times during the story, but that can only be mounted after getting the Spiked Chain upgrade, and Pan, who is ridable only in the second mission of the game. When mounting enemies, they are invincible, and can (and must) be used to completely thrash other enemies and help Gabriel cross certain obstacles that he couldn't cross on his own, and like the above example, after using them, Gabriel kills them.

Yoshi can flutter jump,note the key to a Good Bad Bug that breaks the game in interesting ways, use his tongue as a hook to swing over wide bottomless pits and to eat enemies, and transform into Dash/Light/Balloon forms as power-ups. However, this is one of the few Mario games in which Yoshi does not provide an extra hit point at all, so taking a hit will result in both Mario/Luigi losing a health wedge/life, and Yoshi fleeing.

Power-Up Mount / int_36395288	comment	Kirby: Kirby's Dream Land 2 adds Animal Buddies that can aid with Kirby's Copy Abilities and movement. Rick, Kine, and Coo are a hamster, sunfish, and owl respectively. Kirby's Dream Land 3 brings three new Animal Buddies to the mix: Nago, a cat that rolls Kirby around, ChuChu, an octopus on Kirby's head; and Pitch, a bird he can ride, then throw for long-distance attacks. Kirby can ride King Dedede in Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards, allowing the player to break walls with his hammer. The Helper Wheelie in Kirby Super Star Ultra: If Kirby splits off the Wheel power, the Wheelie it creates has a cowling and handlebars (unlike every other Wheelie in the game), and Kirby will ride it if he jumps on top. If you're playing two-player mode, Player Two (the helper) will control the motion, and Player One (Kirby) can fire short-range stars at enemies; otherwise, the player will control the motion but be unable to shoot stars. In Kirby's Return to Dream Land, it's possible for Kirby and friends to ride each other, which allows them to utilize a Combination Attack when all four of them are stacked up in a tower. There's also a more traditional example with the dragon Landia, who serves as a mount for an Unexpected Shmup Level.

Power-Up Mount / int_74f7210c	comment	The Legend of Zelda: The Legend of Zelda: Oracle Games let Link choose among a boxing kangaroo named Ricky, a blue flying bear named Moosh and a friendly swimming Dodongo named Dimitri as steeds for him. The choice is permanent, so Link cannot use all three (although the game lets you use all three first). Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask and Twilight Princess have the fast-galloping and leaping horse Epona. The latter game also inverts the trope whenever Link turns into a wolf, in whose case Link is the Powerup Mount, for the dark imp Midna. In this formation, the two can can leap to high ledges, teleport and use a homing attack to wipe out several enemies at once. Whereas in the prior games Epona is, once unlocked, accessible at any time, she is a true powerup-dependent mount in Four Swords Adventures, where finding a certain object allows the four Links to ride horses at a blistering speed, crushing enemies underfoot and clearing certain obstacles for a limited period.

Power-Up Mount / int_783392b	comment	In Dante's Inferno, Dante occasionally uses his scythe to take control of Beasts. Dante is effectively invincible during these sequences with the only threat being other demons trying to reclaim control of the Beast. The Beast will curbstomp the rest of the enemies with ease. At one point Dante will also use the Scythe to take control of Phylegas, a huge firebreathing rock demon that he just fought as a boss. To highlight how huge Dante's new mount is, Beasts are mice compared to it. Unlike other games that use this mechanic, Dante doesn't kill his mounts after their usefulness has ended. The environment does that for him. Hell is pretty dangerous after all, even for demons.

His basic mechanics have definitely served as a template for many other mounts. He's been a power-up mount in Super Mario World, Super Mario Sunshine, New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Super Mario Galaxy 2, New Super Mario Bros. U, Super Mario Maker, and Super Mario Maker 2. The gameplay is generally the same in all games though there are some variations in each. In Super Mario World, for example, Yoshi can be carried over after clearing a level, which is not the case for the subsequent 2D games where he'll leave his master as soon as the ending flagpole is touched; and even in the SNES game, he cannot join Mario or Luigi during a Ghost House, Fortress or Castle (instead, he waits outside until the departing character clears the level or loses an extra life). In Super Mario Sunshine, Yoshi cannot touch water or he'll disappear, which can complicate things a lot in certain cases. Yoshi's Island is the inverse of this: you play as Yoshi himself and his friends, as they carry Baby Mario on their backs.note Except in a few levels where Baby Mario flies around. The creators also thoughtfully included a Power-Up Mount for Yoshi, in the form of a large dog named Poochy. The dog carries his passengers across spikes and lava and things, but has a fairly steep learning curve for controlling it. Yoshi's Island DS inverts it further by having a multitude of Baby characters for Yoshi to carry around, all possessing their own special abilities to assist Yoshi with. In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, your Yoshi partner is a Cute Boisterous Bruiser with the strength to carry a plumber three times his size. Downplayed with Yoshi in Super Mario Galaxy 2. Yoshi can flutter jump,note the key to a Good Bad Bug that breaks the game in interesting ways, use his tongue as a hook to swing over wide bottomless pits and to eat enemies, and transform into Dash/Light/Balloon forms as power-ups. However, this is one of the few Mario games in which Yoshi does not provide an extra hit point at all, so taking a hit will result in both Mario/Luigi losing a health wedge/life, and Yoshi fleeing. Plessie from Super Mario 3D World can carry all four player characters and race through river levels. Incidentally, Plessie even resembles a big orange Yoshi. A rare enemy example comes in the form of Ostro and Autobomb in Super Mario Bros. 2, who are ridden by Shy Guys and predating the Yoshi by a few years. Ostros are more standard, giving Shy Guys greater mobility while chasing Mario and friends, while the Autobomb has the added ability of firing projectiles at the player. The player can remove the Shy Guy from their mounts, and then used as a ride themselves (Doing this is required in a few areas to cross some Spikes of Doom).

Power-Up Mount / int_9f89a5f0	comment	Pokémon: Any Pokémon that can learn Surf or Fly becomes this. At least in the games where HMs are a thing; Gen VII replaced them with Ride Pokémon, elaborated below. In Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia, you can capture Doduo for faster travel on land, Floatzel or Empoleon for travel in water (the latter provides the ability to smash through icebergs) or Staraptor to teleport between towns. Staraptor will leave the party as soon as you arrive at your destination, the Water types will leave once you leave the water and Doduo can be ridden until you need to enter a building, then it will leave the party (although this can be prevented by doing something that prompts the Ranger pose action, such as a Quest). Torkoal can be captured to traverse through lava. In Guardian Signs, the player is able to summon the three Legendary Beasts to ride on them, each of them having different functions (Entei can ram through boulders, Raikou can leap over gaps and Suicune can run on water). You can also capture Staraptor again to fly in the skies, allowing you to teleport between locations or simply fly to them, but you eventually gain access to the ability to summon either Latios or Latias, who are superior to Staraptor in terms of flying. The sixth generation Pokémon Gogoat serves as the first true rideable Pokémon, though only in Lumiose City. In one area, its pre-evolved form, Skiddo can be ridden as well. You can also ride Rhyhorn and Mamoswine on certain routes. They can also shatter rocks that are in the way. Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire have Latias and Latios ride you around the Hoenn region in their Mega Forms, and you can fly to various mirage islands and other locations that cannot be reached by foot. These locations also hold various legendary Pokemon like Entei, Raikou and Suicune, The lake trio, Dialga and Palkia, and Reshiram and Zekrom. Pokémon Sun and Moon add to the list of rideable Pokémon via the Poké Ride mechanic — Tauros, Stoutland, Mudsdale, Machamp, Lapras, Sharpedo, and Charizard. These ride Pokémon completely replace HMs and various other tools that were staples in previous games: Tauros replaces both the Bike and Rock Smash, Stoutland works as the Item Finder, Mudsdale can traverse rocky terrain, Machamp replaces the Strength HM. Lapras and Sharpedo both replace Surf, but you can fish from Lapras's back while Sharpedo is faster and can break boulders. Charizard replaces the Fly HM. Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon adds Mantine as a Ride Pokémon, where (akin to the Eon Pokémon in Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire) it's used to surf between Alola's islands in a surfing minigame where the player avoids wild Pokémon and does tricks in the air to gain points. The Olympus Mons Solgaleo and Lunala also get in on the act, being used to travel through Ultra Space in a similar fashion. The horse Pokemon Glastrier and Spectrier in Pokémon Sword and Shield have their own unique powers that can be imparted upon their rider. They're too small for a human to ride, unlike Mudsdale, but they're the perfect size and shape for local Legendary Pokemon Calyrex — and uniquely to them, their ability is added to Calyrex's own instead of overwriting it, grouped under "As One". Pokémon Legends: Arceus has five new Pokémon that can be ridden to travel through the untamed wilderness of the Hisui region (which would later be known as Sinnoh in the future). There's Stantler's evolution, Wyrdeer, which is ridden over land, Hisuian Braviary, which allows the player to fly (working more like a hang-glider then as a teleport to another town) and Basculegion, the evolved form of Basculin which can be ridden on water. Additionally, there's Ursaring's evolution, Ursaluna, which functions as the Item Finder, and Sneasler, the evolved form of Hisuian Sneasel, which can be used to scale cliffs and rock walls. Pokémon Scarlet and Violet feature Koraidon and Miraidon, two large, vaguely bike-shaped reptilians who the player can... well, ride on. Though initially limited to ground transportation, they gain new forms that enable water and air travel as you progress through the story.

Power-Up Mount / int_e5d858e6	comment	The NES video game incarnation of Jaws offers a miniature submarine powerup that can be found randomly on the overworld map. Despite being ostensibly a vehicle, it actually functions identically to this trope, offering an increase in firepower, mobility, and a single extra hit upon which it is lost.

Power-Up Mount / int_ea7c1156	comment	Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon adds Mantine as a Ride Pokémon, where (akin to the Eon Pokémon in Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire) it's used to surf between Alola's islands in a surfing minigame where the player avoids wild Pokémon and does tricks in the air to gain points. The Olympus Mons Solgaleo and Lunala also get in on the act, being used to travel through Ultra Space in a similar fashion.

Power-Up Mount / int_ef86b9d1	comment	In Paleo Pines, the player can ride certain dinosaurs, known as helpers, which have different abilities. As seen in the demo, Lucky the Parasaurolophus can dash, and Styracosaurus can break rocks (Pachycephalosaurus was also shown doing this in a Twitter clip). The trailer also shows them using a Triceratops to plough a field, and the pre-order trailer shows a Tyrannosaurus watering plants.

Power-Up Mount / int_f4ba2731	comment	In Kingdom Hearts 3D [Dream Drop Distance], this is a common form of link attack for Sora's larger dream eater allies. It makes both him and the involved dream eater completely invincible, and allows them to ram into the opposition. Some of the dream eaters are also able to unleash one of their other attacks while being ridden.

Power-Up Mount / int_f891a20d	comment	Terraria: The player can use mounts for transportation or dealing damage. When a mount-summoning item is used, it applies an unlimited buff to the player, spawns the mount, and places the player on or in it. Like Pets and Minions, mounts can be used limitlessly, and their summoning items are not consumed.

Power-Up Mount / int_fe24dd6f	comment	Medal of Honor of all series got in on this in Rising Sun, the protagonist mounting an elephant with a saddle-mounted machine gun. It sounds like it should have been awesome, but sadly it ended up being a rather frustrating Rail Shooter section; the elephant saunters along at barely the player's walking pace, blithely unconcerned by the amount of lead flying around from several directions at once, and you have no cover whatsoever.
