Wario and Waluigi

Wario

I'm-a Wario! I'm-a gonna win!

"Obey Wario, DESTROY MARIO!" Debut: Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins

A fat, ill-tempered, greedy treasure hunter and microgame maker who is often described as Mario's rival. Debuted in Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins as the Big Bad, but branched off with Wario Ware and his own platformers; his nemesis is Captain Syrup (see below). He sticks around for the spin-offs, though.

Tropes associated with Wario:

• Accidental Hero: Wario never intends to perform acts of heroism, he just wants treasure.
• Acrofatic: Still capable of feats of agility/acrobatics despite being fatter than Mario.
• Anti-Hero: Type V.
• Badass
  • Badass Biker: in Wario Ware
  • Badass Mustache
  • Genius Bruiser: Don't let his appearance fool you, he's insanely smart.
    • But he falls short of this since he thinks that the fewer wrinkles you have on your brain, the smarter you are.
• Big Eater: Especially in Wario World, where he has a Kirby-like ability to suck in coins.
• Brought to You by The Letter "S": The W on his cap and gloves.
• The Bully
• Chrome Champion: While Mario was this in Super Mario 64, Wario took over this capacity entirely in Super Mario 64 DS.
• Characterization Marches On / Villain Decay: He was an outright villain in his first appearance, but later games made it clear he's more greedy than evil.
• Corrupt Corporate Executive: In the Wario Ware series.
• Divergent Character Evolution: Design-wise—in newer games, he wears a T-shirt under his overalls (unlike Mario, Luigi and Waluigi, who wear long-sleeved shirts).
  • Also, Wario in his debut was able to use the same powerups Mario could, except more powerful. The Wario Land series gave him his own set of skills; generally used for puzzle-solving than getting from point A to point B.
• Eternally Pearly-White Teeth: The Wario World manual says that all the 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.
• Evil Versus Evil: Pretty much the only way he can come off as being remotely heroic.
  • Depending on its place in canon, he does go out of his way to rescue Princess Peach in Super Mario 64 DS for no real profit (unless he really likes cake anyway).
• Evil Twin: Evil Twin wannabe, anyway.
• Extra Ore Dinary: His hat power up in Super Mario 64 DS is the Metal Cap.
• Fartillery: An exclusive move in Super Smash Bros..
• Fat Bastard
• Fiction 500: In Wario Land more than Wario Ware.
• Foe-Tossing Charge: His primary method of defeating enemies.
• Gadgeteer Genius: He manages to build a teleporter into television on a whim.
• Gag Nose: A pink one.
• Gasshole
• Gonk: One of the few examples of a gonk protagonist.
• Greed: A poster child.
• Jerkass
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: He'll gladly liberate the citizens of a music box from an evil clown...if you let him keep any treasure he finds.
• Iron Butt Monkey: Most of the Wario Land series have him with absolutely no health bar, with intentionally having himself hit to actually progress through the level.
• Large Ham: More so in Wario World.
• 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.
• Made of Iron: The dude can take almost anything thrown at him. Heck, a some of the Amusing Injuries inflicted on him in Wario Land II & 3 actually serve as powerups!
• The Man Behind the Man: Fanon says Tatanga was just a patsy for Wario.
• Mind Control Eyes: In the commercial for Super Mario Land 2.
• Mirror Boss: In Super Mario Land 2.
• Odd Friendship: With Toadette apparently.
• The Other Darrin: In Mario Party 1 and 2 and the Japanese version of Mario Kart 64 he's voiced by German localizer Thomas Spindler, so he's got a slight accent. It even caused the infamous "D'oh I missed!"/"So ein mist!" Mondegreen.
• Phantom Thief: In Master of Disguise.
• Punny Name: In Japanese, warui means "bad". The letters R and L are interchangeable in Katakana, and thus Waluigi below.
• Purple Is Powerful: Wears purple pants in most of his apperances.
• Real Men Wear Pink: Wears pink pants in the Wario Ware series.
• The Rival: To Mario.
• Signature Move: His "Shoulder Charge" attack.
• Stout Strength: Wario has always been portrayed as fatter and stronger than Mario, and he's got the biceps to show it.
• Super Strength: He can punch the ground to cause earthquakes and regularly pulverizes stone blocks.
• Trademark Favorite Food: Garlic.
• Token Evil Teammate: In Super Mario 64 DS.
• Villain Protagonist: Initially. After Wario Land he becomes more of an Anti-Hero.
• Villainous Glutton
• Would Hit a Girl: Wario has pummeled Captain Syrup in Wario Land 2 (in the endings to be specific), the Golden Diva from Wario Land 4, DinoMighty from Wario World, and Terrormisu from Master of Disguise. He's got no problem with smacking chicks.

Waluigi

Expecting a description? TOO BAD! Waluigi time!

"Everyone cheating but me! WAAAAA!" Debut: Mario Tennis

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 Wario Ware: Smooth Moves. His odd confrontational and slightly crazed manner have seemed disturbing to some, and inspired this comic.

Tropes associated with Waluigi:

• A Day in the Limelight: Waluigi gets a fair bit more screentime in the Mario Tennis games. He stars in Power Tennis' opening movie alongside Wario. Also, WALUIGI PINBALL!
• 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: 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 tennis racket.
• Badass Moustache: It is rather impressive.
• Brought to You by The Letter "S": An L, flipped upside-down and mirrored, on his cap and gloves.
  • It could also be the Greek letter gamma (Γ). Coincidentally, if you write Waluigi's name phonetically in Modern Greek, it becomes Γουαλουίτζι (Goualouítzi).
• Butt Monkey: In some of the sports titles.
• Canon Foreigner: Has yet to appear in a mainline Super Mario game (nor has he ever appeared in a Wario game).
• Dastardly Whiplash: He bears an uncanny resemblance to Dick Dastardly.
• Flight: Something like it. In Mario Power Tennis and Mario Hoops 3-on-3 he can "swim" through the air. He can't rise, though.
• Gag Nose
• Gonk
• Glowing Eyes of Doom: Had them in his debut.
• Gravity Master: He can swim in mid-air.
• Green Thumb: His special attacks in Mario Strikers Charged involve summoning purple bramble.
• 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: They can't seem to decide if he and Wario are brothers or not.
• Hijacked by Ganon: It at first looks like he's going to be the main villain of Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix, but he's just the first boss, with Bowser being the final one.
  • 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, 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 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 & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games, but people definitely thought he was this already.
• 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 purple theme.
• Weak but Skilled: This is his usual role in the Mario spinoffs in contrast to Wario as well as in his debut game. However, he has trounced Bowser in a fight, and in the Mario Kart games he is usually another variation on the Jack of All Stats, except in the Wii version where he is a Mighty Glacier-type racer instead. He is also a Stone Wall Speedster in Mario Strikers Charged, a Stone Wall in the sequel Tennis game, and Unskilled but Strong (falling a couple yards short of Wario) in the Mario Golf series. He may just be another Lightning Bruiser overall.

Characters from Wario Land

Captain Syrup

Debut: Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3

Leader of the Black Sugar Pirates, Captain Syrup is the main rival of Wario in the first two Wario Lands, in the first game possessing a base on Kitchen Island which is raided by Wario, and in the second game takes revenge by seizing Wario's new castle. Much to the glee of fans, she returned in Shake It! as an ally to free the Shake Dimension, with the same ulterior motive as Wario: money.

Tropes assoicated with Syrup:

• Badass
• Big Bad: In the "Wario Land" series
• Evil Versus Evil: Although its somewhat subverted since both Wario and Captain Syrup aren't truly "evil" per say, just really greedy.
• Evil Plan
• Femme Fatale
• Identical Stranger: No, that's not Elaine Marley from Monkey Island.
• Lovable Rogue
• Not So Different: While she's portrayed as a villain usually, she's really not that different in motivation or morality from Wario.

• Spikes of Villainy: On his gloves.
• Treacherous Quest-Giver: He exploits Wario's greed to free him from his prison.
