Dr. Mario is the persona Mario takes in the Dr. Mario series. Under this identity, Mario dons a white lab coat, a head mirror, and a stethoscope around his neck. In the games, Dr. Mario works at the Mushroom Kingdom Hospital, using his special Megavitamins to destroy Viruses contained in glass jars. Four of these Megavitamins must be aligned with another Virus to defeat it, and clearing all the Viruses in the jar will clear the level. Several other doctor personas of Mario series characters have appeared throughout the Dr. Mario series, such as Dr. Luigi, Dr. Peach, and Dr. Bowser.
Outside of the Dr. Mario series, Dr. Mario has also appeared in the Super Smash Bros. series, usually as a clone of Mario. He has many of the same moves as Mario, but has higher attack power and KO potential in exchange for slower mobility and a weaker recovery. Dr. Mario can also throw Megavitamins instead of Fireballs, and uses electricity-based attacks rather than fire-based attacks.

Super Smash Bros. Charged[]
Dr. Mario, alongside the other veterans, returns in Super Smash Bros. Charged as a playable fighter. Interestingly, since Mario's moveset has changed significantly, meaning that Dr. Mario is now a wholly unique fighter. Because he still has the same moveset, he can be seen as a way of retaining Mario's old moveset in past Smash games. He has been buffed significantly in that he has Mario's speed and recovery from previous games, while also retaining his signature power. This improves his abilities as a fighter by several magnitudes, making him a much better character overall.
Dr. Mario also plays a major role in the game's story mode, Labyrinth of Ancients. He is one of the 12 "Chosen Ones" rescued by Denka when the World of Trophies is attacked and all the Smashers are trapped in the Labyrinth of Ancients. He and the others work together to rescue everyone within the labyrinth and put a stop to this new threat.
