*** Bowser Jr. himself has changed sizes throughout games. In ''Super Mario Sunshine'', he's smaller than Mario. In ''New Super Mario Bros.'', he's just slightly taller than Mario. In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', he is as tall as, if not taller than, Peach. He shrinks back down to his Sunshine size for spinoffs, though.
*** [[Fridge Brilliance|Maybe it's a sign that he's growing with age?]]
*** In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'' Bowser Jr. is the same height as Larry and Wendy, the middle-height Koopalings. He's overshadowed by Roy, Iggy and Morton (''especially'' Morton, he's HUGE). Jr.'s pretty stocky, however, taking after Bowser, Morton and Roy in that regard.
** Princess Peach's size has also slowly increased over time. She used to be much smaller than Mario post Super Mushroom. These days, she's about [[One Head Taller]] than him in the same state. Heck, she's even taller than freaking lugi nowadays.
*** They apparently averted this for her in ''[[New Super Mario Bros Wii|New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', which, according to [[Shigeru Miyamoto]], is the reason Peach wasn't playable, aside from [[No Flow in CGI|the infamous skirt issue]] ([http://wii.ign.com/articles/103/1035760p3.html source here]):
{{quote|''"I thought it'd be nice to have her as a playable character, but the Toad characters had a similar physique to a Mario character than Peach does."''}}
** They actually went and explained this in ''Bowser's Inside Story''. Bowser's adrenaline makes him randomly grow to kaiju sizes from time to time, though in the game it only kicks in during extreme emergencies and it's the only way to save his life.
Line 206:
** Perhaps this trope is averted with her since she's usually always the same consistent size compared to everyone else, but is only depicted as being small so she can exist as a character. Lets not even get Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy involved in this, since they are actual humans. I guess the [[Rule of Funny]] applies there. The size of Bikini Bottom and it's citizens also tend to change from episode to episode in comparison to the environmental surroundings. It's easy to understand that sometimes the characters are depicted as human sized living in a city underwater, and other times they're smaller than [[David Hasselhoff]]'s foot.
* ''[[Kim Possible]]'': Ron Stoppable's [[Non-Human Sidekick]], Rufus, usually rests comfortably in Ron's pocket. When other characters aren't around for comparison, though, Rufus tends to be somewhat larger in comparison to furniture and other objects, about the size of a small cat. To be fair this is [[Truth in Television]], rats, mice, cats have bones very similar to most small children and can fit into places that are a bit smaller then they are.
* ''[[The Fairly Odd ParentsOddParents]]''
** Timmy Turner of isn't particularly small, but still falls victim to this trope from time to time. Regular-sized adults frequently clench him in a single hand, and one scene in an early episode actually shows Timmy standing in his dad's hands, no larger than a basketball.
** [[Rich Bitch|Trixie]] [[Asian Airhead|Tang]], also not particularly small, is always depicted as being taller than Timmy, but how much taller she is than him also tends to vary.
