The garbage can is an object in Mario Bros. for Game Boy Advance.
Description[]
The garbage can has the appearance of a regular trash can, except it is light blue. It is exclusive to the Mario Bros. Battle mode, in which the garbage can replaces the lower POW Block, but remains in one space and cannot be picked up.
If a character approaches a garbage can while carrying another character, it opens and automatically closes if the character is thrown inside. If a character is trapped inside of a garbage can, they can escape using a Super Jump, capable of dazing another character if they are standing on top, or jumping out when the lid opens, which the garbage can does every few seconds. A garbage can contains a random item, including either a Koopa Shell, a POW Block, a Fish Skeleton, or an Egg, which itself can contain a coin, a Heart, or a Starman.
