What's the Difference between Mario and Dr. Mario? (SSBU)

Dr. Mario isn't considered an echo fighter of Mario in Smash Bros. Ultimate - why is that?
That's what I'm going to explore in this video.

Thanks for watching!

I’d change Doc’s final smash to be similar to Ness/Lucas’s final smash, just instead of raining PK Starstorm shots it’s raining large multicolored pills.

I would make it a controllable final smash where you could choose where you want to drop the pills. But if I want to keep Final Smashes the way they are in Ultimate, which is fast and to the point ( which still doesn’t explain why Peach’s final smash is still the same! This goes for Daisy as well ), this is an ok compromise. Besides, in the Dr.Mario games he drops the pills from the TOP of the screen.

I mean it makes sense that Dr. Mario is powerful, he knows the parts of the human body he has to hit

[MrVibe-txrn]

Mario’s back throw: Okay, I’ll spin him around for more momentum, and then I’ll launch him for the best possible outcome.

Dr Mario: *Y E E T*

[JKDontJudgeMe]

Dr. Mario's back throw is the definition of *y e e t*
"You have cancer, I can't cure you. Now... Out."

[creeeamy]

Dr Marios movement is worse because he's weighed down by his university debt

[sirsaggle]

Dr Mario is instantly KO’d when he is hit with an apple

[thesupperdud]

Dr. Mario's Nair actually does more damage closer to the end of the attack, unlike most fighters, and his side special has less horizontal range than Mario's, but more vertical range

[iijason]

Mario: Faster; less damage
Dr. Mario: Slower; More damage

[sheriffhotdog]

Mario: Who are-a you?
Dr. Mario: I'm you, but slightly different

[_cephas_]

You missed how Dr. Mario’s nair is stronger the longer it stays out, while Mario’s is weaker

[SirNarax]

I love Doc's back throw. Not only does he have a PHD, but he is a pro wrestler.

[CollectorKenji]

The only reason why Dr. Mario is powerful is because he eats his greens.
While Mario eats spaghetti.

[AFXffs]

Dr Mario: Heavy Boi
Mario: Balanced Boi
Luigi: Light Boi

[kfoley]

Dr Mario: 40+ spots below Mario in ground speed
Alex: "it isn't a huge difference..."

[Bidoof_Fan]

I feel like Dr. Mario's final smash could be him putting the opponent in a bottle and throwing in lots of pills, which actually represents his games.

[Jo_Phonda]

Dr mario has a PHD so he has an intelligence advantage

[monke_mojo]

“The pills have a slight amount of knockback, but it’s nothing meaningful.”

[penandtag]

_"...to answer that we need to talk about parallel universe..."_

[kevinwang]

Dr. Mario’s final smash should be giving all opponents on stage cancer

Someone: *asks about the differences between mario and dr mario*

Everyone: How many times do we have to teach you this lesson, old man?
