Waluigi made his first appearance in ''[[mariowiki:Mario Tennis (Nintendo 64)|Mario Tennis]]'' and like [[Princess Daisy]], he has appeared in nearly every ''Mario'' spin-off since serving as Wario's partner-in-crime and best friend (although oddly, he has never appeared in a ''Wario'' game). He is [[Luigi]]'s "evil" rival, in the same way that [[Wario]] is [[Mario]]'s. Along with this, Waluigi has a hat and gloves with a "Γ" gamma symbol, which is similar to Wario's "W", which is also an inverse or an upside-down "M". Unlike Luigi's green hat and shirt, Waluigi has a purple shirt and hat with black overalls and orange elf-like shoes, while his Γ symbol is yellow. Waluigi was created by [[mariowiki:Camelot Software Planning|Camelot]]'s Fumihide Aoki and is voiced by [[Charles Martinet]], like Wario and both Mario Bros. | Waluigi made his first appearance in ''[[mariowiki:Mario Tennis (Nintendo 64)|Mario Tennis]]'' 20 years ago today and like [[Princess Daisy]], he has appeared in nearly every ''Mario'' spin-off since serving as Wario's partner-in-crime and best friend (although oddly, he has never appeared in a ''Wario'' game).

In ''Brawl'', ''SSB4'', and ''Ultimate'', Waluigi appears as an Assist Trophy wielding his tennis racket, which is a reference to his first appearance in ''Mario Tennis''. He will try to stomp players into the ground; however, Waluigi has never done this in any other game, though several games such as ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Party 3}}'' have shown that he has very powerful legs (in the aforementioned game, he knocks out the usually highly durable [[Bowser]] with a single kick). His finishing move either involves kicking the player or hitting the player with his tennis racket. His appearance has slightly changed in ''Brawl'', as Waluigi has orange shoes in the ''Mario'' games, not brown; although his orange shoes were retained in ''SSB4'' and ''Ultimate''. The tennis racket he is holding has retained its design from ''Mario Tennis''. | In ''Brawl'', ''SSB4'', and ''Ultimate'', Waluigi appears as an Assist Trophy wielding his tennis racket, which is a reference to his first appearance in ''Mario Tennis''.
