An Absorbing Mushroom, also known as the Magnet Mushroom, is an item in Mario Kart Arcade GP and Mario Kart Arcade GP DX. The color of the mushroom cap is dark blue with bright blue round spots. When a racer uses the Absorbing Mushroom, a vortex appears around them temporarily. While this vortex is active, any projectile items that hit the racer will be stolen and placed in the racer's hand. The racer cannot pick up items from an Item Box while the vortex is active.
