While I'd say you have quite a bit right, there's some I have to disagree on. For one, the White Tanooki cannot be touched, or it immediately kills the enemy, not to mention someone like Laharl wouldn't know White Tanooki's weaknesses. Going onto some other things, Mario actually does have speed feats. For one, in that same link you had, not only does it measure Mario's strength up in the castle feat, but it shows and explains Mario running up walls at a constant speed, in which he must have some crazy speed. Not to mention Luigi has shown to be able to run at sound speed, and Mario isn't far behind his brother. Not to mention Mario is even able to hold his own against a black hole. A real one too. Next, as to they're techniques, you did forget some of Mario's. For one, he has the Star Spin, Mario Tornado, Super Jump Punch, Slide, and a huge variety of different kinds of punches and kicks, ranging from drop kicks, uppercuts, ect. And plus, Mario actually dosn't need to use the Fire Flower for pyrokinesis, as the Fire God taught him Fire Brand, where he can shoot fireballs and infuse his fire into his attacks. The Fire Flower simply strengthens it. And also, Mario has demonstrated to be able to jump 80 feet high, with relative ease. So Laharl's flying capabilities wouldn't help alot, not to mention including the F.L.U.D.D., ups Mario's jumping abilities to 160 feet. And as towards Mario's durability, it was kinda off. Mario definitely did survive the Supernova, which is universal, so galaxy level durability wouldn't really stand up to that, and Mario was barely fazed. Rosalina was the one that put Mario to sleep after the Supernova, not the explosion itself. Indicating Mario wasn't even knocked out by the Supernova, and sustained no injuries. And the Lumas actually failed at protecting everyone, as the Tornado scene clearly shows them being sucked in, so there was literally NO protection whatsoever. And more proof Mario survived, a reset is suppose to set everyone perfectly back to normal. And with Mario, along with Bowser, Peach, and Luigi being flat on they're asses, it means they tanked it. And Rosalina tanked it too, or she'd be back on Earth in that ending scene aswell. But that's getting off topic. Mario also survived atmospheric re-entry dozens of times sustaining no damage at all, aswell as Mario not even being fazed by a ginormous magma core of lava, several valcanos, and even the sun, all didn't effect him. Not to mention Mario is also able to tank extremely cold weather for a rather long period of time, before even sustaining any damage. As to the power-ups, Mario does have alot more, but it's your decision on what you add, so I'll work with what you granted. First off, the Hammer is able to knock small enemies around the world in a few seconds, indicating another example of Mario's striking strength. But then we've got the Fire Flower, which as stated before strengthens Mario's flame, the Ice Flower can freeze enemies solid, and allows Mario to create ice anywhere water is. The Mega Mushroom was kinda underestimated too, as you kinda need to think about it like this: Mario's strength, tripled. Mega Mario could lift 3 massive castles, and simply walks into things, destroying them. I don't think Laharl has anything to counter that, granted it only lasts 30 seconds. The Mega Mushroom also makes Mario invincible and increases his speed. But I think the biggest underestimated power-up in there was the Metal Cap. The Metal Cap transforms Mario into Metal Mario, granting him doubled strength, entire invincibility, and the Metal Cap cannot be knocked off of Mario's head. Literally not possible. It lasts 25 seconds anyway. Then the Star, again, just like White Tanooki, I don't think someone like Laharl would figure out what it does. It majorly increases Mario's strength, speed, agility, and makes him invincible. But only for 15 seconds. Now finally, Mario's intellect. Believe it or not, Mario is extremely intelligent, but don't use his brain unless he has too. Now finally, as to F.L.U.D.D., he has multiple different nozzles, like the Normal Nozzle, Rocket Nozzle, Jet Nozzle, and Hover Nozzle. F.L.U.D.D. has large amounts of water, as if you do the math and science, when Mario shoots water, it's ALOT. Mario is 5'2, and the water that jets out is nearly half his size. So, Mario is carrying gallons upon gallons of water like it's nothing, another example of Mario's strength. And when he shoots, that must mean it's high pressurized water. Also, it can shoot normal water, freezing water, and boiling water. And it can shoot water constantly for 10 seconds, and then continue shooting right afterwards, basically endless, IF, Mario didn't need to reload. But as long as there's water around him, he can reload in a matter of seconds. Now, for healing. While Laharl does have healing, Mario can aswell. He has Ultra Mushrooms which nearly completely heal him. And he can also have a piece of gear in the RPGs which heal him every time he attacks. Personally, I actually think Mario would take that battle.
