1	->'''Matt Key (Luigi)''': "''People wanna watch ''There Will Be Brawl'' because it's the entire Creator/{{Nintendo}} universe fighting.

19	Mario's younger brother, a good man going through bad times, doing what he got to do. Secretly a drug dealer working with his not-friend Wario and some other not-so-noble activities, but he will still do what is right when it's needed.
20	----
21	* BadAssLongcoat: Never seen without it. Until the finale at least, [[spoiler: using it to cover Red's body]].
22	* BatterUp: During his first fight, he uses a baseball bat as a weapon.
23	* DealWithTheDevil: Makes a bargain with Ganondorf for information.
24	* DramaticShattering: In Episode 3. Yes, he does care for the Kingdom.
25	* GentleGiant: Somewhat. He is not a gentle as other giants, and he isn't that gigantic, but he IS kinder than most of the characters (the exceptions being Red and Peach), and he IS the second tallest characters in the show, shorter than only Ganondorf, so...
26	* HeroicBSOD: Upon finding who the butchers are, and even more so when finding out [[spoiler: Peach is dead.]] Who can blame him, when it basically means all he's been fighting for was worth nothing.
27	* ILetGwenStacyDie: Before the series started, he was unable to keep Kirby from killing Daisy.
28	* ImpressivePyrotechnics: Oh, ''boy!'' His final attack was a darn big explosion.
29	* MyGreatestFailure: Failing to save Daisy.
30	* PrivateEyeMonologue: Through the entire series.
31	* SeekerArchetype: For most of the series, he just wants to understand what the hell is going on with his city.
32	* ShutUpHannibal: "I've had enough of your head games!" punch
33	* TheStoic: Not ''that'' much, but there's certainly some degree of it.
34	* TakeMeInstead: In episode 6, when Red is captured and about to be [[JackBauerInterrogationTechnique interrogated]], Luigi cannot bear the thought of letting it happen to someone as innocent as Red and shouts at Sheik to take him instead. It works.
35	* TakingYouWithMe: He attempts this at the end with [[spoiler:Kirby, Ness, and Lucas, but it turns out not to work.]]
36	* VerbalTic: He ''is''-a-Mario brother, after all.

44
45	--> Played by: Paul Duraso
46
47	It's-a me, Mario! But not the same anymore. Our well known hero here has fallen into infamy and apparent depression. No longer a plumber, [[VideoGame/DrMario failed as a doctor]], he nowadays resorts to drinking to drown his problems, but when Peach is kidnapped again, after falling at the bottom for a while, he got back up like never before, determined to rescue her.
48	----
49	* AdaptationalJerkass: Mario in known to be a NiceGuy in the games, but this Mario is a violent alcoholic who gets in constant trouble and is willing to resort for extreme methods to fulfill his goal, but he's still a hero fighting for the Mushroom Kingdom.
50	* AntiHero: He'll fight for the Mushroom Kingdom, but is ''very'' prone to violence and anger.
51	* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: While he does frequently insult Luigi and yell at him when things don't go right, he still loves his brother.
52	* AxCrazy: Sometimes his fits of rage go too far.
53	* BerserkButton: ''Never'' call Mario a plumber. Wario finds this out the hard way.
54	* BigDamnHeroes: His arrival at the police department to rescue his brother and the others.
55	* BigNo: Upon finding [[spoiler:Yoshi's remains.]]
56	* BringMyRedJacket: Always wears his signature red shirt, and constantly gets into bloody fights.
57	* ADayInTheLimelight: Episode eight is pretty much all about him.
58	* DrowningMySorrows: He spends most of the series as an alcoholic, but later on, upon seeing Peach's doll when he was about to take a drink, he realizes what he's doing and puts the bottle down.
59	%%* FallenHero: How he starts.
60	* GeneralRipper: He's pretty quick to assume Bowser is behind everything.
61	-->'''Mario:''' "It is always-a Bowser!"
62	* HesBack: In the finale when he puts his hat back on.
63	* LimitBreak: He performs his Final Smash against the EldritchAbomination that is [[spoiler:Game & Watch]] at the end.
64	* PlayingWithFire: Comes with Fire Flower in one scene, and later unleashes a massive fireball attack with his Final Smash. And if that wasn't enough:
65	-->'''Luigi:''' "Bro, you're playing with fire!"
66	-->'''Mario:''' "The Super Mario Brothers are ''used'' to playing with fire!"
67	* RebelLeader:
68	** When attacking the police station.
69	--->'''Mario:''' "And you know me! If I can't do it myself... I will raise a fucking [[BadassCrew army]]!"
70	** And even moreso in the final episode.
71	* RousingSpeech: To Olimar's cult. He brings them back to their senses, and then calls them all out to fight to reclaim the streets of their kingdom.
72	* SupportingLeader: In the last episode, he leads his "fucking army" while [[spoiler: Luigi confronts Kirby and the killers]].

82
83	Still the princess of the Mushroom Kingdom, Peach is having a hard time dealing with the newly corrupt city, while her relationship with Mario ([[LoveTriangle and Luigi]]) is attempted to keep secret, yet it's causing her troubles. When she gets kidnapped again, Luigi and later Mario strive to find her.
84	----
85	* DeadAllAlong: [[spoiler:It turns out that Princess Peach had been killed immediately after she was kidnapped.]]
86	* DistressedDamsel: Never out of it, it seems. [[spoiler: And unfortunately for her, this was her ''last'' time.]]
87	* GetAHoldOfYourselfMan:
88	-->'''Peach:''' "Pull yourself the [[PrecisionFStrike fuck]] together, Luigi."
89	* PaperThinDisguise: When she's visiting Mario and trying not to attract attention, her disguise consists of dark glasses and a hoodie over her usual flowing pink gown, with her crown still on her head. The trope is subverted in that Wario ''does'' see right through her disguise.
90	%%* PimpedOutDress: [[PrincessesPreferPink Which is pink]].
91	* PrincessesPreferPink: Taken straight from the games.
92	* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: And ''how''. She's pretty much the only form of authority keeping the city from completely falling apart.

103
104	A popular stripper who uses her job to get plenty of information. Luigi recurs to her when seeking leads in his search for the princess, and from there onward she tags along in his fight to save the kingdom.
105
106	* BifurcatedWeapon: Her [[RayGun Pistol]]-[[LaserBlade Laser]]-Whip, the Paralyzer.
107	* DareToBeBadass: It isn't really expanded on, but Samus abandoned her power armor some time before the beginning of the series. In the intro for Episode 10, she's seen staring at her helmet
108	* EyepatchOfPower: [[spoiler: She gains one in the final scenes, likely from her fight with the Butchers.]]
109	* FauxActionGirl: Considering how badass she's ''supposed'' to be, she didn't show much of it, sadly. At least at the end she gets a BigDamnHeroes moment. Then again, there isn't any bounty hunting work anyway...
110	* HookerWithAHeartOfGold: One of the few genuinely good and nice characters in the series.
111	%%* MsFanservice: Oh, ''yeah!''
112	* MythologyGag: Consider her job in this series. Now consider [[SamusIsAGirl what she does at the end]] [[{{Stripperiffic}} of almost every game she appears in]] [[AndYourRewardIsClothes (if you're fast enough).]]
113	* PoweredArmor: She finally puts her famed Chozo power suit in the end.
114	* SpyCatsuit: Technically it would be a LatexSpaceSuit, but let's be honest, that's not the case here.
115	* VerbalTic: Constantly refers to the others as "sugar."
116	* VictoriasSecretCompartment: She ''is'' a video game character, after all.

124
125	-->Played by: Kyle Blythe
126
127	A young Pokemon Trainer of an innocent and generous personality. He's possibly the only untarnished good guy of the entire cast, working for Mewtwo and Wario but remains oblivious to their crimes, working at the Pokémon orphanage in the slums.
128	----
129	* CheerfulChild: Despite everything that's happening around him.
130	* ChildrenAreInnocent: The most unambiguously good character.
131	* CowardlyLion: In episode nine, when he is the first to intervene in the standoff between Ganondorf and Captain Falcon. He is visibly ''terrified'' by Ganondorf, yet steps forward anyway, telling him with a shaky voice to "Get out of our Kingdom!"
132	* DarkReprise: Done twice.
133	** First serving for background music for Peach's kidnapping.
134	** The second, [[spoiler:in his unintentional VideoWill]], a melancholy yet memorable version] of the main Franchise/{{Pokemon}} theme (''Gotta Catch 'Em All'') [[spoiler:during his funeral.]]
135	* KillTheCutie: He's murdered by [[spoiler:Wario, on Ganondorf's orders]], with one of the bombs Olimar made.
136	* MeaningfulFuneral: The end of Episode 9. Complete with a DarkReprise of his theme tune.
137	* {{Mons}}: Of course, if he has to do something for a fight, he'll do it with his Pokemon.
138	%%* MoralityChain: To Luigi.
139	* ThePollyanna: At first, his sunny disposition is strong enough to make him overlook his blatantly bad surroundings, such as insisting that the Pokemon fights, which everyone else treats as bloodsports, are just them "playing a little rough sometimes" and, in episode six, acting completely oblivious to the seriousness of the situation when he's arrested by Sheik and about to be taken off to be brutally interrogated.
140	* RedHerring: He was conspicuously hiding Jigglypuff from Luigi and his friends in the earlier episodes, and many viewers were suspicious enough of that to have either him or Jigglypuff pegged as the Butcher. He gives his (completely innocent) explanation [[spoiler:[[AcquittedTooLate as he's dying]], with his LastWords.]]
141	-->[[spoiler: '''Red:''' Luigi, I caught Jigglypuff! I didn't want you to know until I finished training her. She'll [[MythologyGag sing]] for you.]]
142	* TagAlongKid: He's this for Luigi and his allies.
143	* TooGoodForThisSinfulEarth: At least, too good to survive in the corrupt Mushroom Kingdom.

151	-->Played by: Justin Harris
152
153	Star of [[Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda Tingle]]'s [[WhereEverybodyKnowsYourFlame Gay Bar]] and Captain Falcon's personal bitch. As for himself, Pit is mostly innocent, yet not really heroic. He gets involved in the problems of Mario and Luigi, but remains mostly neutral about the situation.
154	----
155	* DomesticAbuse: Falcon angrily smacks him in the face at one point.
156	* TheMole: For Captain Falcon, who sent him to stay informed of the situation.
157	* NeutralNoLonger: Towards the end, he decides he and Falcon cannot stay out of the battle any longer.
158	* NonActionGuy: He doesn't seem to have any combat skills.
159	* TagAlongKid: For Captain Falcon.
160	* TookALevelInBadass: He was a NonActionGuy during most of the series, but at the end [[spoiler: he has a change of heart at the end and convinces Captain Falcon to join the final fight against Ganon and take part in the final battle]].
161	* WingedHumanoid: As is to be expected of an angel. [[spoiler: They get severed during the final battle, however.]]

170	-->Played by: Damian Beurer
171
172	The [[NumberTwo one in charge]] of [[Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda Tingle]]'s [[WhereEverybodyKnowsYourFlame Gay Bar]] when the boss is out. Like his little boyfriend, Pit, he prefers to stay away from the conflicts arising around the city, but won't doubt to raise his legendary fist in order to rescue Pit when necessary.
173	----
174	* BigDamnHeroes: His indisputable Crowning Moment of Awesome. And he gets another one near the end.
175	* DomesticAbuse: He angrily smacks Pit in the face at one point. But he won't tolerate anyone ''else'' harming him.
176	* HeroicNeutral: He just wants to care for his own and stay out of trouble, until the situations gets so bad that he cannot tolerate it any longer.
177	* InTheNameOfTheMoon: His lines and delivery leading up to the epic Falcon Punch would do [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsAlpha Sanger Zonvolt]] proud.
178	* LargeHam: '''"FALCOOOOOON''' '''''PAAAAWWNCH!"'''''
179	* ManlyGay[=/=]MachoCamp: He is still a total badass, but at the same time is also a flamboyant leatherdaddy toting an ascot.
180	* MegatonPunch: His signature move gets featured with quite a bit of build-up.

190	-->Played by: Tony Rago
191
192	Chief of the Mushroom Kingdom police department, and quite aware of how cynical he has become. He's willing to do what he has to in order to employ the law and bring down the mafia groups, regardless of what it takes. [[spoiler:He comes to his senses and realizes he's being played by Zelda and Ganon, only for Zelda to stab him with the Master Sword. He recovers in the nick of time with a Maxim Tomato and makes his last heroic stand against Ganon, but fails--the sorcerer kills him.]]
193	----
194	* ChildrenAreInnocent: Realizing that this trope used to apply to him when he was Young Link/Toon Link, he tries [[spoiler: to pull a HeelFaceTurn, only to get stabbed by Zelda for it.]]
195	* CompositeCharacter: Of [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess Regular Link]], [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime Young Link]] and [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTheWindWaker Toon Link]]. Probably of [[LegacyCharacter every other Link in existence]] as well.
196	* DaChief: Being the police chief of Mushroom Kingdom doesn't make him very cheery.
197	* EnergyWeapon: The sword beam attack used in the original games.
198	* HeroAntagonist: This more or less defines his role. He's genuinely a good cop, but never realizes that he was a pawn of Ganon.
199	* ICanStillFight: He shows up at the end, [[spoiler: but not for long.]]
200	* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: His penultimate fate - stabbed in the back with the Master Sword [[spoiler:by Zelda]].
201	* INeedAFreakingDrink: To cope with the corruption of his city.
202	* KnightInSourArmor: He tries to uphold the law, but he stopped believing in an happy ending a long time ago.
203	* LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe: From ''fire!''
204	* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Despite Lakitu's smearing of them, Link is fully aware that Mario and Luigi have nothing to do with the Butcher.
205	* PrecisionFStrike: '''"SHUT THE FUCK UP, NAVI!'''"

214
215	-->Played by: [=JoEllen=] Elam
216
217	Former princess of Hyrule, a nation that has fallen and been absorbed into Mushroom Kingdom. She works for the police, either as an OfficeLady as Zelda, or as a secret agent as [[SweetPollyOliver Sheik]]. However, it seems that her ambitions go too far, appointed the substitute ruler of the Kingdom by Link after Peach's disappearance.
218	----
219	* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: [[spoiler: She wants to side with Link, but ultimately relies on Ganondorf to restore Hyrule to its former glory. As soon as Link grows a spine, Zelda betrays Ganon.]]
220	* HeelFaceTurn: Hers is right in the grey area between a proper turn and a HeelFaceDoorSlam. She [[spoiler:tries to be a HumanShield for Link in his final fight with Ganon, but it doesn't work at all, gets her killed, and he's killed right after she is.]]
221	* LadyDrunk: She ''has'' to forget guilt somehow, hasn't she?
222	* MyCountryRightOrWrong: Her ultimate objective. Like Ganondorf, she too was dismayed at losing Hyrule; and so she began to use both Link [[spoiler: and Ganondorf]]; whichever would come first to restore Hyrule to it's former glory and herself to Princess/Queen.
223	%%* {{Ninja}}: As Sheik.
224	%%* OfficeLady: As Zelda.
225	* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: After she [[spoiler:stabs Link]] at the end of Episode 9, Episode 10 opens with her crying her eyes out over a bathroom sink, not even wearing the crown she wanted so much.

236	A couple (yes, in the romantic sense too) of officers working under Link's command at the police department. They pass out as mostly formal, but aren't very kind to the immigrants or former heroes. A flashback implies Marth's partner was Roy, before his death.
237	----
238	* AdaptationDyeJob: Ike is given black hair, likely to differentiate him from Marth, though it's shoulder length and straight rather than spiky.
239	* BigDamnHeroes: Marth comes back to fight for Mario after Ike's apparent death.
240	* DaChief: Marth ends up promoted to Chief of Police in the epilogue, and it's implied he's going to do a good job of it.
241	* DualWielding: During the final fight, Marth shows up with his and Ike's sword.
242	* EnemyMine: In the final fight, Marth with [[spoiler:Fox]].
243	* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:Ike's death]] prompts Marth to make a change for the better.
244	* PoliceBrutality: They are not the best cops ever, nor the gentlest. However, they are the most heroic when compared to the rest of the cops.
245	* RedOniBlueOni: Surprisingly, as opposed to their personalities in game, Marth's Red to Ike's Blue. Though they're mostly quiet, Marth comes across as much more hateful and merciless, openly mocking how much the Mario Brothers have fallen and even spitting at disgust at Luigi, who only wanted to help. [[spoiler: Of course by the last episode, Marth becomes much more noble and responsible]]. Though just as arrogant, Ike seems to be less cruel and more dutiful. He also seems to be more sympathetic (despite his infamous quote), as he actually saves Luigi from getting shot by Falco, and actually reluctantly chooses to let Luigi go, prompting Luigi to come back and attempt to save him from Snake.
246	* StraightGay: They are in a relationship, but aside from their brief appearance in Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland they don't do anything camp.

254	A pair of corrupt cops, neither which are like their video game counterparts, both being very sadistic and take pleasure in the pain of others.
255	----
256	* CorruptCop: Both of them are very cruel, sadistic, and enjoy the brutality they give to others.
257	* DroppedABridgeOnHim: ''Vaporised'' by the Falcon Punch. [[AssholeVictim Not a real loss though]].
258	* JerkAss: Even to their allies.
259	* OCStandIn: Like most of the characters, Isaac acts nothing like he does canonically, going from a noble silent warrior to a cruel and sadistic police officer. Especially since he is a minor character, and does not gain the justification behind their newer natures like more major characters (like Link and Bowser), with whom we get to learn what caused them to change so.

272	* GlowingEyesOfDoom: He is ''very'' menacing.
273	* TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou: He's been waiting a long time for an opportunity to fight Kirby to the death.
274	* RedHerring: A lot of people guessed him as the Butcher, thanks in part to believing him to be a GameBreaker in Brawl, and also due to Luigi's guess of the Butcher being "fast and good with a blade."

284	--> Played by: Creator/KyleHebert
285
286	Sells drugs and engages in other unethical activities. Wario was working under Mewtwo's command until the mafia don was killed. Wario is potentially the most unlikable character in the series for how much of a jerk he is, and how willing he seems to be to backstab anyone as long as it benefits him.
287
288	Played by Creator/KyleHebert. [[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer Yes, really.]]
289	----
290	* BerserkButton: He doesn't like it when people talk about his family.
291	-->'''Mario''': Say hi to your brother for me!\
292	'''Wario''': ''FUCK'' you!
293	* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: He'll switch sides as soon as it benefits his own interests.
294	* DirtyCoward: In episode 10, he either [[ICanExplain snivelishly backpedals when talking to]] or flat-out runs away on three separate occasions--from Luigi, Mario, and Leaf.
295	-->'''Wario:''' I've never been a proud man, Luigi. I'm just a survivor.
296	* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: He's a DirtyCoward and a [[JerkAss scumbag]], but he is shown to be genuinely caring for his brother Waluigi.
297	* EvenEvilHasStandards: Even though they are his personal guard, Wario can't stand the Ice Climbers' brutality and gives Luigi advice to get through the Ice Climbers torture-based interrogation.
298	--> '''Wario:''' Keep your head up and whatever you do, don't cry. They get off on it.
299	* {{Jerkass}}: Almost (but not totally) impossible to sympathize with him.
300	* TheMole: Works for multiple characters - first Mewtwo, then the cops, then Ganon, and possibly Bowser too.
301	* NightmareFetishist: He seems to... ''enjoy''... describing the {{Gorn}} that happens around him.
302	* OnlyInItForTheMoney: In the words of his actor:
303	-->'''Creator/KyleHebert:''' "Is he... evil to the core? Mh... depends on how much money there is to gain."
304	* PetTheDog: Zigzagged. His only real good trait seems to be the fact that he looks after mentally handicapped brother, Waluigi. He's even seen feeding Wa by hand at the beginning of Episode 10. But then he uses Wa to [[spoiler:unknowingly deliver a bomb to kill Red.]]

315	----

330	* AxCrazy: They have literally no characterization beyond this.
331	* ChaoticStupid: Is it a really a good idea to smack your brother on the head with your hammer in the middle of a battle and knock him out? No, but Nana did it anyway. Because she's evil and wanted to take Marth on mano-a-mano (AKA, Marth was duel wielding his and Ike's swords, so she wanted a second weapon).

358
359	-->Played by: Kirk Diedrich
360
361	One of the four mafia dons, and the most likable around the kingdom, having gained popularity among both the poor and the rich. He runs a whorehouse and is somewhat unfriendly when dealing with people, but despite his position, he wishes for the arising crisis to end.
362	----
363	* EvenEvilHasStandards: He may be a Mafia boss, but honestly wishes to put control on the city.
364	* FatBastard: Of a milder sort. He's definitely a ruthless don, but he does genuinely want the best for the Kingdom.
365	* TheHedonist: Even describes himself as such.
366	* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: For a crime boss, at least. He doesn't want meaningless slaughter.

378
379	-->Played by: Creator/MatthewMercer
380
381	Another of the mafia mobs, still resenting the OldShame that was the fall of Hyrule, mostly due to the fact the kingdom fell due to a bad economy rather than his minions and magic. He plans to take over Mushroom Kingdom, manipulating everyone he can in order to get his way.
382	----
383	* BlueAndOrangeMorality: Simple example: Ganondorf always wanted to destroy or take over Hyrule; but in this series; he's pissed about it. He reveals that it's because it fell to economic collapse and insider trading rather than the good ol' fashioned ways. He'd have been happier if he (or some other 'barbarian or warlord') was the one who destroyed or conquered it through power rather than something as dishonorable and lame as a market crash.
384	-->'''Ganondorf:''' What I failed to do in thousands of years, these little dickless maggots accomplished in two elections...
385	* DidntThinkThisThrough: [[spoiler:Ganondorf was OutGambitted by Kirby when it was revealed he didn't have full control of the psychic children. By the time Ganondorf realized where exactly he stood in the whole thing, it was too late and the kids had him at their mercy.]]
386	* DoWrongRight: Seeing Hyrule fall due to economic collapse, insider trading, and terrible politicians makes Ganondorf's blood boil because he sees as the wrong way to bring a kingdom to its knees. He prefers the kingdom to fall from a conquering army led by a barbaric warlord like himself, fighting the good old fight. He's also pissed of how quickly it happened, embarrassing him since he never succeeded in conquering Hyrule for thousands of years.
387	* EnemyMine: With whoever helps him get what he wants, including Luigi, [[spoiler:Zelda and the Game & Watches]].
388	* EvenEvilHasStandards: Sort of. Though he's certainly evil, Ganondorf seems to actively look down on [[spoiler: Ness and Lucas]] because they're doing things ForTheEvulz. That, and he really got fired up talking about Hyrule as a kingdom of chivalry and heroism where men lived and died by the sword. Like most people in the series Ganondorf preferred the GloryDays.
389	* EvilPlan: He has a big one, but in the end [[spoiler:he gets {{Outgambitted}} by Kirby.]]
390	* EvilSorcerer: His fighting style. He's very good at it.
391	* HannibalLecture: Though he doesn't do it as often (or as well) as Kirby.

401	* TakeOverTheWorld: He makes ''no secret'' of his desire to conquer the Mushroom Kingdom.
402	* ThenLetMeBeEvil: Though he was always evil to begin with, this is his general attitude towards his current state. Like most of the cast he misses the days of honorable fights between clear-cut villains and heroes for control of kingdoms, not the WretchedHive the world has become with moral ambiguity and power is seized by secret schemes and political power plays. But unlike most of the others, who bemoan the state of things and wallow in their own misery, Ganondorf has decided to adapt with the times and still aims to climb the top of the power pyramid, even if he dislikes the way he has to do it.
403	* VillainousBreakdown: He undergoes one when [[spoiler:he realized he's been OutGambitted by Kirby]].

435
436	One of the four mob bosses who run the Mushroom City's streets--until his untimely death. The police found his internal organs stuffed into a Pokeball. ''Ouch''. Mewtwo was apparently a ruthless mafia don who nonetheless cared for his fellow Pokemon. [[spoiler: In the final episode, we learn that in response to Kirby's rampage, Mewtwo tried to create a psychic army by experimenting on orphaned children. Two of his creations, Ness and Lucas, fell under Ganon's thrall.]]
437	----
438	* GoMadFromTheRevelation: Implied. Kirby is said to have "whispered" to him, and and afterwards he tried to raise the children as part of a "psychic army". It's possible that Kirby used him to set the Butcher event in play in the event that he would be arrested. If so, he's also an UnwittingPawn.
439	* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Mewtwo trained [[spoiler: Ness and Lucas]] to be psychic assassins, not knowing that [[spoiler:Kirby was also influencing them]]. He ended up murdered by [[spoiler:them]].
440	* LonersAreFreaks: According to Wario, Mewtwo spent almost all of his time in solitude. [[MythologyGag Just like he did in the games]] you could catch him in; he is in solitude at the bottom of Cerulean Cave.
441	* ManOfWealthAndTaste: He's shown wearing a white suit/black tie/sunglasses combo (a ShoutOut to a piece of FanArt the creators took a shine to).
442	* PosthumousCharacter: It's actually his death that shakes up the power balance between the four dons and thus kicks off the plot. Though, given how the model looks later on when we see him, it would probably be nigh impossible to have an actor in that kind of suit anyway.
443	* PsychicPowers: He had them, and presumably somehow trained [[spoiler:Ness and Lucas]] in using them.
444	* SmallRoleBigImpact: Mewtwo is killed early on in the series without any screentime. [[spoiler: Turns out he unintentionally created the Butcher, manipulated by Kirby into creating a psychic army, unleashing the monsters that are Ness and Lucas.]]

585	-->Played by: Creator/MatthewMercer
586
587	Forget '''everything''' you ever knew about the cute and lovable Nintendo character here, because this Kirby is a walking {{Homage}} to [[Literature/TheSilenceOfTheLambs Hannibal "The Cannibal" Lecter]]. He was the monster who raised terror in the Mushroom Kingdom six years before the beginning of the series, until Mario and Luigi managed to stop and imprison him.
588	----
589	* AdaptationalIntelligence: Kirby in the games is fairly naive, and has inadvertently helped villains, be it through manipulation or his own impulsivity, on multiple occasions. Here, Kirby is an expert in psychology and master manipulator.
590	* AdaptationalVillainy: In canon, Kirby is an AllLovingHero who's more than willing to help others out. This version of Kirby however is a sadistic SerialKiller responsible for ruining the lives of practically everybody in the Mushroom Kingdom.
591	* AdaptationalWimp: Kirby in the games is among one of Nintendo's most powerful characters, with a power level said to be infinite. In ''There Will Be Brawl'', while Kirby certainly isn't weak, due to the more grounded setting, he lacks the insane feat of power he showcases in the games.
592	* AmericanKirbyIsHardcore: Doesn't even begin to describe this.
593	* TheCorrupter: It's implied that it was his rampage years ago that set the Mushroom Kingdom and Hyrule on the path to the CrapsackWorld they are now, both by shattering the idealized innocence of their people and the sheer amount of chaos he caused destabilizing the communities.
594	* DevourTheDragon: Implied that after the final battle [[spoiler:he eats Ness to gain his PSI.]]
595	* TheDreaded: Even years later, just about everyone in the city is scared shitless of him to the point that only the bravest among them call him by name.
596	* EvenEvilHasStandards: Subverted: This Kirby has ''no'' redeeming qualities. Still, as a ShoutOut to ''Film/TheSilenceOfTheLambs'', Kirby [[FauxAffablyEvil pretends to have standards]] and behaves defensively over Peach when another inmate offends her while she was visiting him.
597	* {{Expy}}: As you might guess, Kirby is reimagined as a Hannial Lecter-esque figure.
598	* ForTheEvulz: His typical motivation for killing his victims. This in fact worked to his advantage during his reign, as it made it extremely difficult for the police to capture due to the fact he murdered indiscriminately.
599	* HannibalLecture: Given the influences, this was inevitable.
600	* ImAHumanitarian: After all, his power in the games ''is'' eating his enemies.
601	* ItsPersonal: For Luigi: he killed Daisy in the backstory.
