'''Master Mantis''' is a major character in the ''[[WarioWare (series)|WarioWare]]'' series, first appearing in ''[[WarioWare: Smooth Moves]]''. He is an elderly martial artist who trains his devoted apprentice, [[Young Cricket]]. When he was first introduced, he appeared to be a rather serious character, shown training Cricket in difficult conditions, but it is later shown that he fits in with the rest of [[Wario]]'s friends.

At the end of the game, Mantis is among the group who demands Wario to pay them for the [[microgame]]s they designed for the [[Wario Bowl]]. After Wario trips and lets his money briefcase fall, Mantis tells Cricket to use his newly learned technique, the "Precious Prancing Pounce", to stop Wario from escaping further. All of Wario's friends then decide to split the remaining money equally between them. The player is then rewarded the 10000 [[coin]]s they were given at the beginning of the game to buy their admission into the Wario Bowl.

===Physical appearance===
Mantis is a short, elderly man with defined cheeks, a round red nose, and a grey wavy ponytail that flares into spikes at the end. He also has a black mustache and what appears to be either headphones or hairbuns on either side of his head. His eyes are small black circles. Outside of his appearance in the Wario... Where? version of the {{iw|rhythmheaven|Munchy Monk}} minigame in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', his mouth has never been seen. Mantis typically wears a purple martial arts uniform similar to that worn by [[Young Cricket]], though with a simpler design and bigger sleeves.
