Description Aww, shipping. You simply can't avoid it in a fandom. If you're the kind of person who's searching for every single piece of Super Mario fan fiction on the surface of the Internet, you'll notice that pretty much every possible combination has been made, no matter if it's straight or gay/lesbian. Here's those that particularly stand the test of time.


LUIGI x DAISY: First introduced in Mario Tennis, then hinted in Melee and Mario Kart Wii, this pairing is one of the favourites in the Mario fanbase. It's also very interesting to see how diametrically-opposed characters can work out as a potential couple (Daisy is brash and tomboyish, Luigi is shy and a bit of a punching bag).

WARIO x MONA: Wario rarely gets paired (seriously) with anyone. If there's one that stick out the most, though, it's probably this one, which seem to work alright. In the WarioWare games, Wario and Mona work with the same goals in mind, and seem to have some kind of chemistry. The apparent age gap between them doesn't seem to be much of a bother to the fans.

WALUIGI x DAISY: Waluigi first existed only to serve as a partner to Wario in Mario Tennis. He didn't grow much as a character since then, but considering Daisy was reintroduced in the series at the same time he first appeared, people like to put them in the same boat (or should we say in the same SHIP?). Waluigi is said to have a crush on Daisy, but does she reciprocate? 

TOAD x TOADETTE: Of course, because two characters of the same species yet opposed gender often appear side-by-side, people just HAVE to pair them together. On that point, some game guides hint at the fact that Toad and Toadette are siblings. That obviously won't stop people from pairing them together, but still, something feels wrong about it. And despite the fact that Toads are now considered to be a genderless species, it would be nice if Nintendo would come with more variations of female gender-role playing Toads. There's a bit of a Smurfette syndrome going on here.


(Can't get enough of that wonderful shipping? Rejoice! There's a second part HERE !)


All characters belong to Nintendo!


Update, 2018-06-23: brushed up and streamlined the descriptions a bit to reflect my current feelings on each pairing.

Wow, I didn't expect Toadette will be Toad's sister. Maybe my Mario fandom was so rusty until I didn't oil it. Well, my last Mario stuff is the animated series which is in Dinosaur World.

TheBourgyman In reply to BB-K [2009-05-24 19:07:52 +0000 UTC]

It's a bit ambiguous. Some sources state that Toad and Toadette are siblings, while others say that they're a couple.

In the picture, I'm taking into account that they're siblings. But I think it's left to the interpretation of people as to know what they are exactly.

BB-K In reply to TheBourgyman [2009-05-24 19:09:57 +0000 UTC]

Hmm, not sure, better check with Wikipedia. I hope there are some official sources I can read.

It's been so long since I keep in contact with the series, especially my last one was Super Mario World (The one in Dinosaur World).

TheBourgyman In reply to BB-K [2009-05-24 19:41:12 +0000 UTC]

Haha yeah, things have changed a bit since those times.

I don't remember what Wikipedia says on the matter, but I remember it wasn't really clear back then. Apparently different official strategy guides and instruction booklets contradict themselves on the matter, because a lot of people replied here saying they never knew they were either siblings or a couple. It goes to show that Nintendo likes to keep some things ambiguous for their characters.

BB-K In reply to TheBourgyman [2009-05-24 19:42:50 +0000 UTC]

Hmm, so it's most likely unconfirmed. That's alright, fine by me. I don't even mind a Toad + Toadette.

Of course they know each other... they've been in several games together!

Abracamoron In reply to TheBourgyman [2009-05-13 03:21:47 +0000 UTC]

Well I understand, but I figured they were off in their own stories doing their own stuff, cause I don't really see them together or anything

TheBourgyman In reply to Abracamoron [2009-05-13 03:29:55 +0000 UTC]

Yeah... I don't know much about that though, but I've heard they were interacting at some points in these games. Apparently, Wario even mentions about Mona being cute in one of these games (like, he mumbles it while dreaming, or something like that)

DaisyxLuigi: YAEY! At first, I didn't get why this is fan-based. I just got into the Mario series (Well, I played it before, but now I'm way more obsessed with it.). And as I searched the web, it occured to me there is no actual proof. Other then the Daisy Circuit in Wii. It gave me a focking heart attack when I saw those statues.

MonaxWario: Another YAEY. LoveandCake introduced me to it, and I can't get enough.

WaluigixDaisy: Where the hell did that come from? I've never even heard of it...and for a good reason.

ToadxToadette: Oh my god, don't get me started. ALLLLLL of my friends support this. And they take screen shots in Double Dash of when Toad and TOadette switch spots, because it looks like their touching eachothers butts. >.> I'm a supported of them being siblings.

Heres a new one; ToadxGoomberella. Hmmm...Kind of weird. But I sorta kinda like it. As long as they don't go crazy with it.

BerylliumArt In reply to ??? [2009-05-02 03:54:14 +0000 UTC]

I agree completely.
Toad and Toadette should not be auto-paired just because they both are toads.
When I play Mario Party GC, however, my brother always sticks me with her.
Great art, by the way, very clean.

When Wario was asleep at the end of one game did'nt he dream of Mona and say "She's cute".
Or something like that?

I played the first WarioWare game and can confirmed that Wario did said "She's cute" after you beat the boss stage the third time in the final set of microgames. Any other questions?

What? Toadette and Toad are siblings? Yikes!
Love Dasiy's expression in the third pannel! At first I hated the thought of Dasiy and Waluigi being an item, but now I think it would be kind of cute. Don't know why though, I'm just weird that way. I'm not too crazy about that pairing though. Daisy/Luigi is definetly a win and will always be my favourite pairing! ^^

Some games say that Toad and Toadette are siblings, some games say they are relatives. At this point, I guess the right thing to do is believing what we prefer believing.

i argee here are the chances of these realtionships.and my opinon

LUIGI x DAISY:100%.perfect couple desptie a few personalty differrecnes luigi
being a coward and daisy a tomboy but they ae mostly alike

WARIO x MONA:85%despite being nearly polar opposites they seem to work
well. wario being a rich ,lazy,mildde age,fat ugly slob who's a real
jerk and mona the pretty, teenage,middle class hard working
girl who's real nice.

WALUIGI x DAISY:5% waluigi is a borderline villan who's a jerk,ecocentric,and is reallymean.daisy is nice and tomboyish.never going to happen unless waluigi changes his ways or brainwashes her.

TOAD x TOADETTE:uh,no way,in mario kart will statrgery guide toadete is officaly confirimed to be toads sister.
