'''Kamek''' ({{ja|カメック|Kamekku}}, ''Kamek'') is an antagonist from the {{uv|Yoshi}} and {{uv|Mario}} series.
 
==Origin==
[[File:KamekNSMBWii.png|thumb|left|300px|Kamek casting a spell before the boss battle with [[Koopalings#Roy Koopa|Roy]] in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''.]]
Kamek made his debut in ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island}}'' as the main antagonist and has become a recurring antagonist in the ''Yoshi'' and ''Mario'' series. He is a [[Magikoopa]], a high-ranking Koopa, and is a caretaker to {{s|mariowiki|Baby Bowser}} and later his personal advisor.
 
Kamek is known for assisting the bosses of the ''Yoshi'' and in the ''{{iw|mariowiki|New Super Mario Bros.|series}}'' series starting with ''{{s|mariowiki|New Super Mario Bros. Wii}}'' by using his magic. In ''Yoshi's Island'', Kamek uses his magic to make the bosses gigantic (or in the case of the {{s|mariowiki|Prince Froggy}} boss, shrinking Yoshi and Baby Mario). In the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' series, Kamek uses his magic to alter the elements of the [[Koopalings]]' boss stages and make Bowser gigantic.

He's a sly one, that Kamek.

==Origin==
==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''==
===As a stage element===
{{stub}}
Kamek reprises his role in the [[Mushroom Kingdom U]] stage.
 
===Spirit===
Kamek also appears as an Advanced-class [[primary spirit]].
 
In [[Adventure Mode: World of Light]], Kamek is presumably one of the countless spirits captured by [[Galeem]] during his takeover of the universe. Kamek's spirit is located in the [[Molten Fortress]] sub-dungeon of [[The Light Realm]].
 
Kamek's Spirit Battle uses an army of {{SSBU|Inkling}} puppet fighters and is and is fought on the [[Mushroom Kingdom U]] stage's Slide Tower layout. Each of the puppet fighters start off with a [[Star Rod]], referencing Kamek's magic scepter. During the battle, an army of Inklings appear after the first Inkling is defeated, referencing Kamek's ability to teleport and duplicate himself.

==Trivia==
*In a Nintendo Japan questionnaire, Kamek was included as a popularly requested character for ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''.<ref>https://www.nintendo.co.jp/n01/n64/software/nus_p_nalj/smash/PostResult3.html</ref>
*Kamek's trophy in ''Smash 3DS'' depicts him as a generic Magikoopa, while his ''Smash Wii U'' trophy lists ''[[Super Mario World]]'' as one of his appearances. While Magikoopas in general debuted in ''[[Super Mario World]]'', Kamek himself debuted in ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island}}''.
**This may be because Magikoopas are called "Kameks" in Japanese, with no clear distinction between the character and the species.
*Kamek's trophy in the Wii U version erroneously states that he might trick the player by not casting any magic at all when he appears in Mushroom Kingdom U. This is false; Kamek will always cause a stage transition with every appearance.
*Despite being a ''Mario'' trophy in both versions of ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', the Kamek trophy is part of the Yoshi's Island Trophy Box in the Wii U version, which makes sense considering he is Yoshi's arch nemesis.
*Kamek's spirit in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' is listed under the ''Mario'' series, despite the fact that he made his debut in the ''Yoshi'' series, as well as being a primary antagonist of these games, likely because he appears in ''Super Smash Bros.'' on a ''Mario'' series stage.
