Princess Daisy (デイジー姫, Princess Daisy) is a recurring character in the Mario series.
In Super Smash Bros. Melee
Daisy appears as a trophy. She is also the basis for one of Peach's costumes, which changes many aspects of her appearance to match Daisy's (except for the hairstyle, which is still that of Peach). Daisy's appearances in Melee are based on her classic design which was retired in the GameCube era.
Trophy information
- Daisy
- The princess of Sarasa-land, Daisy met Mario when he helped defeat the evil alien Tatanga in Super Mario Land. Princess Daisy is a bit of a tomboy when compared with her counterpart, Princess Peach. After her appearance in Mario Golf, some gossips started portraying her as Luigi's answer to Mario's Peach.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Daisy once again appears as a trophy, this one depicting her athletic gear from Mario Strikers Charged; she also appears on two stickers. Daisy is once again the basis for one of Peach's costumes; however, unlike in Melee, no model elements are changed for this costume and it is a simple recolor.
Trophy description
- Striker Daisy
- The princess of Sarasaland and an upbeat and cheerful go-getter. She has appeared in titles ever since Mario saved her after her kidnapping by the tyrannical alien, Tatanga. Although her iconic look is a yellow and white dress, she goes with a sportier look in Super Mario Strikers to compliment her spunky scoring strikes.

In Super Smash Bros. 4
Daisy appears as four trophies in these games, one exclusive to Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS depicting her tennis outfit and three exclusive to Super Smash Bros. for Wii U depicting her regular and baseball outfits, as well as her baby self. Daisy continues to be the basis for one of Peach's costumes; as in Brawl, it is a simple recolor. A Daisy wig is also available as a headgear for all Mii Fighter types.
More notably, Daisy's baseball appearance appears in Smash Tour as a red item. A player who uses it will automatically catch all thrown items for the duration of a battle.
Trophy descriptions
Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS
- Daisy (Tennis Outfit)
Similar to Peach in how she plays tennis, Daisy also packs a seriously powerful shot. Maybe their choice of colors symbolizes their personalities? They're alike in a lot of ways, but if you could choose just one, would you choose Princess Daisy or Princess Peach?
Like Peach, Daisy is a Technique player, but she has something else up her sleeve: a really powerful shot. Do you think the sedate pink and vivid orange reflect Peach and Daisy's different personalities? Would you say you're more Team Peach or Team Daisy? Or maybe... Team Both?
Super Smash Bros. for Wii U
- Daisy
She may be the princess of Sarasaland, but she doesn't exactly have the poise you might expect from royalty. Daisy is more of a headstrong, active type. That's all part of her charm, though, and rumor has it Luigi is quite smitten with her. Unlike Peach, she's only really been kidnapped once - in Super Mario Land.

The Daisy (Baseball) trophy is unlocked by hitting Sandbag 1,000m (3,280 ft.) or more in Home-Run Contest.
- Daisy (Baseball)
The captain of the Daisy Flowers, Daisy is great both when at bat and when defending. Her fastballs especially are a thing to be feared. Her Star Swing, Flower Swing, will cause a garden to bloom where the ball lands. Fielders will have to wait for the flowers to clear away. What a pretty delay of the game!
When it comes to baseball, Daisy, captain of the Daisy Flowers, is good at battling and even better at defence. She throws a mean fastball when she's on the pitcher's mound, and her batting special, Flower Swing, makes a garden bloom in the outfield. Who says there's no time to stop and smell the flowers in the middle of a ball game?
- Baby Daisy
This cute toddler made her first appearance in Mario Kart Wii. If she looks familiar, that's because she's a baby version of Princess Daisy! Look at the determination in those baby eyes-even at such a young age, she was full of drive! Orange was her favorite color at that age too. Even her pacifier is orange!
This cute toddler first showed up in Mario Kart Wii. If she looks familiar, it's because she's just a baby version of Princess Daisy. Look at the determination in those huge eyes - even at such a young age, she was full of drive! And from looking at her clothes, dummy and kart, it seems her taste for orange fashion started early too!
Origin
Princess Daisy debuted in Super Mario Land as the princess of Sarasaland and that game's damsel-in-distress who had been captured by Tatanga. Since then, she has only appeared in Mario series spin-offs as a partner and counterpart to Princess Peach, with her ultimately taking on a more tomboyish appearance in contrast with the more feminine Peach. Daisy is a regular in Mario Kart, Mario Party, and various Mario sports games.
Trivia
- Other than her various trophies and color scheme for Peach, there are other references to Daisy in Super Smash Bros. 4, such as:
- In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, the video cutscene that plays after Peach's congratulations screen makes various references to Princess Daisy. In one scene, Peach in her Daisy color scheme is shown grabbing Luigi, and in another scene, Peach along with another Peach in Daisy's color scheme are shown floating away from a Chain Chomp together.
- Additionally, Peach's congratulations screen in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS features a picture of her and another Peach in Daisy's colors posing together.
- Also, Rosalina & Luma's Classic Mode congratulations screen in the Wii U version features two Rosalinas posing and standing close together; one pink and one yellow. This may be a reference to Peach and Daisy, and bears a resemblance to their artwork from Mario Party 7.
