			The '''Metal Cap''' is a powerup that can be found in green [!] blocks after the green [[Cap Switch\|cap switch]] in [[Cavern of the Metal Cap]] is pressed. When worn, it allows Mario to sink and walk underwater, and makes Mario invincible to most forms of damage. It expires after 20 seconds.

	The Metal Cap ~~makes Mario~~ [[~~Metal Cap#Invulnerable\|invulnerable~~]] ~~for 20 seconds. Most enemies that come in contact with Mario, will just die.<br>~~		==Glitches==
	~~Mario also becomes 'heavy'. The effect this has makes him sink to the bottom of any water, sink quicker in quicksand and his jumps lower~~.		The Metal Cap, like all caps, can be used to perform the [[Hat in Hand]] glitch.

	~~In places it is possible, [[Dire, Dire Docks]] for example,~~ the Metal Cap ~~will combine with~~ the ~~effect~~ of ~~other [[:Category:Caps\|Cap]]. However~~, ~~since the Metal Cap and [[Wing Cap]]~~ are ~~never in the same course, the only combination ever seen by a normal casual player will be the combination of the Metal~~ and ~~[[Vanish Cap]]~~.<ref>https://www.~~mariowiki~~.com/~~Metal_Cap~~</ref> ~~There is however~~ a ~~unused texture~~ in the ~~game~~, ~~of a metallic Wing~~ Mario.~~<ref>https://tcrf~~.~~net/Super_Mario_64_(Nintendo_64)/Unused_Textures#Metal_Wing_Cap</ref> Using hacking, Mario~~ can be ~~seen with both~~ the Metal ~~and~~ the ~~Wing Cap effect~~. ~~The~~ [[~~GameShark~~]] ~~code for~~ this is~~: ''8133B176 003C'' <ref>https://www~~.~~deviantart.com/trackmasterfan341/art/Super-Mario-64-Metal-Wing-Cap-592835867</ref>~~		===Damage with the Metal Cap===
			Even though the Metal Cap canonically makes Mario invincible to all forms of damage, there are still several ways to take damage and/or die while wearing it.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2i2YZ6nvaZw</ref> These include:
			* Small or large fall damage; Mario will take damage the same as if he didn't have the cap.
			* Getting burnt by fire (not lava) before putting on the cap; Mario will continue his fire burning animation and will continue to lose health.
			* Entering water from the side so that Mario takes damage from being underwater for a handful in frames, but in such a way that he won't be able to [[Water Surface Upwarp\|water upwarp]] to the surface to regain more health; this can be done in the [[Wet-Dry World]] dry pipe, where the pipe's ceiling prevents Mario from upwarping to the surface.
			* Taking knockback underwater; while the knockback doesn't damage Mario, it renders him vulnerable to the effect of the water.
			* Riding on the water shell; this can be done by cloning the metal cap to be near the water shell. While riding on the water shell, Metal Mario is able to lose health from the water as if he wasn't wearing the metal cap.
			* Being eaten by [[Bubba]]; this is not possible to do in the game and requires hacks to see.

	== ~~Glitches~~ ==		==Interactions==
	~~The~~ Metal ~~Cap can be used to perform the [[Hat in Hand]] glitch~~.		Most enemies die upon touching Metal Mario. No attacks by enemies have any effect either, except that of Bubba.

	=== ~~Invulnerable =~~==		===Enemies that don't die ==
	~~Even though the~~ Metal ~~Cap should make~~ Mario ~~Invulnerable in theory~~, ~~Pannen found ways to~~ die ~~after putting~~ on ~~the~~ Metal ~~Cap~~.~~<br>~~		Not all enemies that come in contact with Metal Mario will die. Here are enemies that don't die on contact. This list is incomplete. This list still includes enemies that can be killed normally, as long as those enemies do not die on contact from Metal Mario.
	~~The first is the simplest~~, ~~because the~~ Metal ~~Cap does not remove fall damage. This is however probably not a glitch and actually intended game design~~.		* Mr. I; Metal Mario will receive knockback.
			* Bubba; Metal Mario will die.
			* Amp; Metal Mario will get shocked.
			* Thwomp, Whomp; Metal Mario will get squished.

	The more difficult way to die after activating the Metal Cap involves water. Water affects Mario's health, but with the Metal Cap on it shouldn't. However, when jumping into water it takes a couple of frames before the Metal Cap can take effect. This means that the normal effect of water on Mario's health will apply shortly. (Losing health under water, gaining health on the surface.)<br>		===Other interactions===
	On terminal velocity for going down, you recover +26 HP, and lose -19 HP. This means that it is not possible to lose health for casual players this way. As you first recover health by being at the surface, and then start losing it after. Even using hyperspeed to enter the water will not work. (The game puts you at the surface of the water after you entered it.) The way to lose health is to stop the game from placing you at the surface, by making sure there is no surface.<br>		* Piranha Plant; The plant will die, but Mario does also receive knockback.
	~~Another way to lose health is by getting knockback under water (note that the knockback itself does not inflict damage).<br>~~		* Getting Shocked; Mario can still get shocked, but this doesn't lower his health.
	~~Metal Mario is also vulnerable to the effect of water when riding on the water shell. To get there, you have to first clone the metal cap.~~		* Getting Squished; Mario will get squished, but this doesn't kill the Thwomp not does Mario get damaged.
	Metal Mario is also not invulnerable against Bubba the Fish. Bubba the Fish will still eat Mario. This is unprovable in the normal game, as there is no Metal Cap in [[Tiny-Huge Island]].<ref name="HP with Metal Cap">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2i2YZ6nvaZw</ref>		* Lava; Using hacks you can show that lava doesn't hurt Mario. (The Metal Cap cannot be obtained in any stage where there is lava.) The lava will however make Mario do the lava boost.
