Downpour Cloud

From the Super Mario Wiki, the Mario encyclopedia

Downpour Cloud
Downpour Clouds in their idle (top) and angry (bottom) states
Appears in	Super Mario Bros. Wonder (2023)

Downpour Clouds^[1] are a type ofSemisolid Platform appearing inSuper Mario Bros. Wonder. They follow a cycle, releasingwater for approximately five seconds before returning to idle for approximately three seconds. This cycle also induces a switch from an angry to a neutral expression, similar toRotating Blocks containing items. Downpour Clouds do not release water as droplets but as waterfalls that the player can swim through.

Downpour Clouds are introduced inDownpour Uproar, where swimming through their waterfalls is necessary to accessWarp Pipes andWow Buds. They later reappear inSearch Party An Empty Park? where Wow Buds need to be triggered to create them. In this level, Downpour Clouds are constantly releasing water and move back and forth horizontally.
