## Canon in *Mario* series

Waluigi is Luigi's arch-rival and Wario's partner. He is created by Camelot Software Planning. He made his debut in *Mario Tennis* for the Nintendo 64 and since than, has appeared in many Mario spin-off titles, such as *Mario Kart* and *Mario Party*. He often causes trouble for Mario and friends, usually with Wario by his side. He cheats at practically everything, faking extreme skill and athleticism.

## Canon in *Mushroom City Car Wash*

Waluigi is Luigi's rival and Wario's best friend. He used to be claimed by HEROMARIO, and is currently claimed by Toadettefan14. Before he joined Toadette and co., he was training to become one of the roleplay's many narrators. During this time, he watched over everything that happened in the game and enforced the rules of it. However, his role as student of narrator did not last long.

When he was not narrating, Waluigi often caused trouble with Wario by his side. Like the latter, he also disappeared from the Car Wash World and entered the Mario Party world after an unknown accident happened to him. Once Host Toad, Toadiko, and Nitros Oxide found them in Wario's Battle Canyon, the three befriended them and helped to defeat Bowser and Bowser Jr. on Eternal Star, returning to the Car Wash world soon after. Since than, Waluigi has joined Toadette and her friends on many of their adventures, making sure Wario does not get himself into trouble.

This alliance lasted until the *We are Toadia and Vanilla! Hear us roar!* story arc, where they were forcefully told by Toadette to leave the Car Wash permanently, after they abandoned their shifts to go to the Mushroom City casino while Toadia and Vanilla were gone. Since than, the two have been living on the streets of the Mushroom Kingdom.

## Personality

Waluigi is very devious and likes playing tricks on people. He often uses this to get ahead of his rivals as much as possible. Like Wario, he gets filled with determination when battling his foes, and hates to lose. That being said, he is more cautious than his best friend when it comes to money, and often tells him that he has enough of it. He cares a lot for Wario and the two are often seen together.

## Abilities

Waluigi is very talented at sports. This makes him a very athletic person on the battlefield, and he knows a lot of physical moves. He often kicks his enemies with his long legs, though he can also hit them with his tennis racket for some distance. When his racket is at full power, he can also use his Power Shots to attack his foes. Waluigi's Offensive Power Shot is the Whirluigi, a backspin shot that gives returners a whirlwind affect, losing the returner's control. His Defensive Power Shot is the Swimming Return. Here, a pool appears in the court, and Waluigi swims to hit the ball.
