| |
| ===''Wario's Woods''===
| |
| Seizer makes his first game appearance in the NES version of ''Wario's Woods'' where he was a boss character that Toad has to face off against. Seizer makes his appearance in the forty-ninth round and has 14 hit points. He has the power to make two complete rows of enemies fall at a time. He also sports the generic abilities of throwing enemies and re-locating himself to different areas of the stage. If Seizer is to re-materialize on Toad after re-locating himself, he instantly defeats Toad.

| ===''Super Mario'' (KC Deluxe)=== | | <br clear=all> |
| Seizer appears in two chapters of the [[Super Mario: Wario no Mori|''Wario's Woods'' adaptation]] in the [[Super Mario (Kodansha manga)|''Super Mario'' Kodansha manga]]. He is summoned with [[Boom]] and [[Mad]] by [[Fauster]], after regaining some of his powers with [[Wario]] sacrificing [[Baby Luigi]] to him. Seizer immediately starts targeting the heroes and summons [[Goro]] to squash them, but the heroes manage to defeat him. After the heroes split up, [[Birdo]] encounters Seizer. Feeling disturbed by his skeleton, Birdo throws her bomb bag and swings her tail at Seizer, breaking his bones and killing him. Before continuing on her path, Birdo makes a puzzle with his pieces.

| | [[Category: Bosses]] |
| Seizer appears in ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'' [[Super Mario-kun Volume 12|volume 12]] as the main antagonist of chapter 12. [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], Toad, [[Yoshi]], Birdo, and [[Wanda]] are separated after an avalanche in the snowy region of Wario's Woods. Toad, all alone and scared, trips on Seizer's skull, awakening him. He presents himself as Wario's herbalist, lost in the snow while looking for some herbs for his master and died due to the cold (with even his monster minions being reduced to bones). When Seizer explains he was looking for mushroom powder, Toad flees, but gets trapped after Seizer tossed his skeleton onto him, but Yoshi emerges from the snow munching on the bones, leaving only his skull. Seizer then freezes Yoshi and curses Toad by making him see things much scarier than in reality and when he goes for the kill, Yoshi, still frozen, takes a magic bullet for Toad. Seeing this, Toad decides to face his fears, and his courage grants him an invincible sword which he uses to defeat Seizer.
