Stun before picking up a target

Wario can lift suitable enemies and objects. A controlled grab gives time to shake out a reward or aim a throw.

Watch the Shake Meter

Earthshake Punch needs a full meter. Wait for it to refill before relying on another room-wide stun or environmental trigger.

Tilt deliberately when aiming

A held object follows the throw angle. Set the arc before releasing so it reaches the switch or breakable target.
