Birdo/Appearances

==In Super Mario Bros. 2==
These games feature Birdo more as a species, as the main Birdo character (if one appears in the game) is not made evident, although the one in World 1-1, being pink and utilizing standard attacks, is thought to be that Birdo.
In the Super Mario Advance remake, a robot counterpart of Birdo, named Robirdo, replaces the second Mouser as the boss of World 3. Birdo is also featured in the game's logo.
==In Wario's Woods==
In Wario's Woods, Birdo (named "Catherine" in the instruction booklet) acts as Toad's helper. Throughout the game, the trio go up against Wario's Battle Canyon as he sends out the monsters of Wario's Woods.
Although Birdo is not playable (as she appears only in the top right corner of the screen), she aids Toad (the main hero) by providing him with encouragement and as a look out for Wario throughout the rounds. Birdo will also shout instructions and encouragement to Toad from the corner. If Toad takes too long to complete a level, Wario would grab Birdo, replace her, and cause trouble for Toad. After Wario’s timer is up, Birdo returns, and continues to help Toad. The round ends once Toad defeats all the enemies.

Birdo is fought as a boss in Nimbus Castle. She originally starts off inside of an egg named Shelly, which Mario and his party have to break before they can fight Birdo herself.
