| ==Battle==
| | This strange entertainer is extremely weak, having only two attacks, sparkling with yellow energy and dashing for Wario, and doing a jig in place, twirling his cane, both easy to avoid. |
| The battle with Mean Emcee takes place in a medium-sized square arena with three hands each holding a huge cup; reflections of [[Spriteling]]s are visible in the background. The Mean Emcee is crouching down and hiding his face when Wario enters the arena, only to spring up as he approaches and then dance while twirling his cane; he then emits a strange laugh, and the battle begins.

| The Mean Emcee moves by "tip-toeing" around the arena, and has two attacks: he will charge up with yellow energy and spin towards Wario, or spin his cane before doing a jig in place while twirling it. Once hit a few times, he flies towards one of the three cups to hide under them, and the hands holding them will shuffle shell game-style before coming to a stop; Wario's head occasionally tracks the movement of Mean Emcee's cup, though this may be inconsistent. Wario must hit the correct cup twice to make Mean Emcee tumble out, and then execute a [[Piledriver]], [[Wild Swing-Ding]] or [[Mega Toss]] to knock a skull off his health meter; attacking an incorrect cup will cause [[Magon|Wansuru]], [[Ninja Crow]]s or [[Magician (enemy)|Magician]]s to drop out of them. If he flies off the arena while using his first attack or is thrown off and damaged by Wario, he will fly or bounce back towards the stage. As Mean Emcee's health meter is depleted, the cups will increase their shuffle speed. Slamming Mean Emcee five times will defeat him, and Wario gains access to [[Pecan Sands]].
| | Once hit a few times, he'll hide under one of three cups, which will mix each other up, finally coming to a stop. Pick the correct one (the wrong ones have Puppet Magons, [[Ninja Crow]]s or [[Magician (species)|Magicians]] underneath) to find...nothing! Hit the cup to send the Emcee tumbling out of his hiding place, and execute a [[Piledriver]], [[Wild Swing-Ding]], or [[Power Throw]] Repeat five times. Each time, the cups will increase their shuffle speed, until you can't even tell which one's going where. Repeat five times, and access to [[Pecan Sands]], the last level, is granted. |
