Sacred Pose
- Not to be confused with Form.
Sacred Poses (originally known simply as poses) are additional forms that appear after a boss microgame in subsequent playthroughs of stages in WarioWare: Smooth Moves and WarioWare: Move It! They act as an intermission between levels of a stage, offering a single position that can be performed with the Wii Remote (and Nunchuk if applicable) or Joy-Con in a short space of time. After encountering a pose, the player will unlock its corresponding pose card in the Temple of Form in Smooth Moves and the Museum in Move It!
In Smooth Moves, there are 81 different poses to collect in single player. Collecting them all unlocks a new message on the Town Bulletin Board. There are also Commemorative Poses exclusive to the multiplayer mode Bungee Buddies. These poses feature two characters as opposed to one, and do not have names or pose cards.
In Move It!, if the player gets a Game Over during the first playthrough of a stage, they are given the opportunity to perform a type of Sacred Pose called a Second-Chance Stance. If the player is able to hold the pose when three seconds have passed, they will regain all of their lives and resume where they left off; otherwise, the player will have to start over again. Unlike in Smooth Moves, Sacred Poses are tied to specific stages. There are 104 Sacred Poses in total.
WarioWare: Smooth Moves
Wii Remote only
Any of these poses can be obtained in any stage except for Orbulon's. Each specific card is only obtained after the boss of the stage depending on the difficulty. For example, 3 star difficulty poses are only obtained after defeating a Level 3 boss microgame.
