** [[Badass Biker]]: in ''[[
** [[Badass Mustache]]

* [[Eternally Pearly-White Teeth]]: [[All There in the Manual|The Wario World manual]] says that all the [[Trademark Favorite Food|garlic]] he eats scares off any germs that would cause tooth decay. Any plaque that's brave enough to stay there, he himself eats.
** Averted in [[Wario Ware]] Touched, where Wario gets a terrible toothache from eating sweets. Twice.
* [[Evil Counterpart]]: Wario was set apart from Bowser in his first appearance by his ability to use the same items as Mario.

* [[Large Ham]]: More so in ''[[
* [[Lightning Bruiser]]: He is massively strong, can take a lot of damage, and can jump high and dash quickly (with his signature dash attack).
** [[Mighty Glacier]]: Always this in the Mario spinoffs, though in [[Super Smash Bros.]] he retains his [[Lightning Bruiser]] status instead.

Debut: ''[[Mario Tennis (Video Game)|Mario Tennis]]'' }}▼
▲{{quote|
Waluigi debuted in ''Mario Tennis'' as Wario's partner (we don't know for sure if they're brothers) and Luigi's rival. He has so far only appeared in Mario spin-off games, and his only appearance in a Wario game was in several minigames in ''[[
Tropes associated with Waluigi:
* [[A Day in
* [[Anti-Villain]]: He's not really much of a villain - In fact, the only indication that he is one is at all is that his goal is to [[Take Over the World]].
* [[Ascended Fanon]]: [[Stalker Without a Crush|Stalking]] Luigi.
* [[Assist Character]]: In [[Super Smash Bros Brawl]], he is one of the many Assist Trophy characters. His function is to chase down opponents and try to stomp them into the ground and finish up by launching opponents with a mighty kick or a swing from his [[Mario Tennis
* [[Badass Moustache]]: It ''is'' rather impressive.
* [[Brought to You
** It could also be the Greek letter gamma (Γ). Coincidentally, if you write Waluigi's name phonetically in Modern Greek, [[Fridge Brilliance|it becomes]] Γουαλουίτζι (Goualouítzi).
* [[Butt Monkey]]: In some of the sports titles.
Line 102 ⟶ 99:
* [[Harmless Villain]]: So much that you wouldn't even know he was a villain, if he hadn't tried to [[Take Over the World]].
* [[Heterosexual Life Partners]]: [[Flip-Flop of God|They can't seem to decide]] if he and Wario are brothers or not.
* [[Hijacked
** '''He''' has done this to Bowser as well in ''[[Mario Party]] 3''. After getting the Beauty Star Stamp, Bowser shows up. Expecting a fight with Bowser for the Mischief Star Stamp, Waluigi steals it instead, '''[[The Worf Effect|CURBSTOMPS]]''' Bowser when he tries to object, and forces the player to fight for the Stamp on a board of his own creation. While Waluigi only ends up being the [[Climax Boss|penultimate boss-of-sorts]], that scene was Bowser's last appearance in 3's Story Mode.
* [[In a Single Bound]]: He's the ''only'' character who has ever come close to Luigi's jump height without flying.
* [[Jerkass]]
* [[Lean and Mean]]
* [[Mad Bomber]]: He often throws Bob-ombs in his sports appearances.
* [[Remember the New Guy?]]
* [[Satellite Character]]: He's characterized by his motivation to make Luigi's life miserable. Later games have pushed this into the background a little and made him into more of a cheat and a prankster, with a mischievous personality to match.
* [[Spin Attack]]: One of his special moves in ''Mario Power Tennis''.
* [[Stalker Without a Crush]]: Revealed to be this to Luigi in the 3DS version of [[Mario
* [[Stone Wall]]: Due to his long limbs, Waluigi is one of only 2 characters classed as "defensive" in the ''Mario Tennis'' series.
* [[Take Over the World]]: His goal. You can probably guess how good he is at it.
* [[Third Person Person]]: Waluigi will spy on Luigi using his new Waluigiscopes!
* [[Trademark Favorite Food]]: Eggplants, to go with his {{color|purple| purple}} theme.
* [[Weak but Skilled]]: This is his usual role in the Mario spinoffs in contrast to [[Mighty Glacier|Wario]] as well as in his [[Mario Tennis
