Toadette

**Toadette** (キノピコ *, lit. Kid Toad***?**) is a member of the Toad species who appears as a playable character in various spin-off games. Her name is a portmanteau of the word Toad (which she is a member of the species), and the word ‘ette’ which can be used to make words more feminine, or can be used to refer to smaller words (such as kitchenette). She is first introduced in *Mario Kart: Double Dash* as the partner of Toad. She was then shown in *Mario Party 6* as an unlockable character. In other games, she simply acts as an instructor or a background character, for example in *Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door*. She has a cameo alongside Toad in the intro of *Super Mario Galaxy*. She also appears in *Mario Super Sluggers* as a playable character for the Peach Monarchs, as well as *New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe* with a transformation dubbed Peachette, As well as appearing in *Super Mario Odyssey* in Princess Peach's Castleto give Mario Power Moons for completing different tasks.

Toadette is portrayed wearing a sleeveless pink dress with a thin white line near the bottom (except in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and the artwork for Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, where her dress is colored scarlet red with a thin yellow line). Layered on top of the dress is a bright red vest (colored brown with the scarlet dress) with light gold trim linings by the edges. Underneath this, she wears white pants and brown, padded shoes.

Toadette has the same body and facial structure as other Toads; she has the same round head and skin tone most other members of her species share. Her eyes are small, dark, and oval-shaped (with Super Mario-Kun being an exception, where Toadette is depicted with large, round eyes). Like most Toads, she has the appearance of a child, even in terms of her voice, making her sound like a little girl. Toadette is generally a happy and upbeat girl. She is portrayed as being a nice, sensitive person, and she enjoys being with others; she has similar personality traits to Toad. However, it is shown she can get childish and stubborn very easily, especially if being upset or when reality starts to kick in.

In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Toadette states that she likes animals and that she is saddened when Punio stops visiting the sewers. Also, if players change the time on their GameCube's clock, Lucky, who runs the Rogueport lottery, mentions that the lottery numbers are messed up because someone has changed the clock, and when he tells this to Toadette, she "cried her little eyes out", showing that at times she can be very emotional. This is also supported when, at the conclusion of the last tutorial session with Mario, Toadette runs off in tears, knowing that she will not see him for the rest of his adventure. In Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix, she was portrayed as quite pushy, forcing Mario and Toad to fix her hotel even though they are in a hurry to find the Music Keys. Mario Super Sluggers also has shown that Toadette is determined and stubborn, as she claims that fellow teammates need her and that she does not take no for an answer.

Mario Party DS indicates that she is interested in music and musical instruments, even to the point of going to play in a recital. Toadette stays up late practicing a wide array of instruments ranging from trumpets, to violins, to even a small silver hand bell. Her trophy bio for Super Smash Bros. for Wii U has also stated that she likes animals and musical interests, enforcing her preferences shown in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and Mario Party DS. Toadette also conducts the marching band in the Baton and On minigame in Super Mario Party and gives advice about the Sound Stage mode, further enforcing her interest in music
