Editing Wario-Man

|latest_appearance=''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'' (''Rhythm Heaven'' series) ([[List of games by date#2015|2015]])

 

'''Wario-Man''' is [[Wario]]'s alter-ego in the [[WarioWare, Inc.|''WarioWare'' games]]. Wario transforms into this form by eating some sort of garlic, his favorite food. In the ''WarioWare'' games, Wario-Man hosts the last set of [[microgame|microgames]] the player faces. There are no rules to his games and they all involve Wario to at least some degree. Wario-Man also appears as Wario's [[Final Smash]] in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]].

In ''[[WarioWare: Twisted!]]'', while checking up on [[Dr. Crygor]]'s production of ''WarioWare: Twisted!'' systems, Wario decides to sit down on the assembly line and play a game.  He is then tossed into Dr. Crygor's Gravitator. When he comes out, he turns into Wario-Man. When the player completes his stage, he goes back in the Gravitator and gets a power suit, and flies up in space. Meanwhile, [[Orbulon]], [[Mona]], [[9-Volt]], [[18-Volt]], [[Kat and Ana]] take a cruise on Orbulon's new ship, a yellow [[Orbulon's Oinker|Oinker]]. The Oinker then sees Wario-Man and attacks him. Mona recognizes Wario in the suit. After being attacked, he falls down in the sea near Crygor's lab and turns back to normal. Dr. Crygor is also seen fishing during this time.

Wario-Man appears again in ''[[WarioWare: Touched!]]'', though how Wario transforms into him is different. In this game, Wario starts to feel sick. He decides to eat some [[garlic]] to relieve himself, but the only garlic head left in the fridge is green and odd-looking, having spoiled and become [[Nasty Garlic]]. Since garlic is Wario's personal cure-all, he goes ahead and eats it anyway. The garlic infects Wario's stomach with viruses, and when Wario's immune system eats the viruses (thanks to the player) the reaction turns Wario into Wario-Man, and he starts to go on a rampage. Later on, Wario-Man is hit by a train and gets knocked all the way into a sewer, where he changes back into Wario, fights the [[Sewer Guru]], and gets hurt by doing so.

 

This game suggests that Wario-Man doesn't gain many enhanced abilities, as it is shown he can't fly very high or fast, and he has difficulty crushing a toaster and the train that eventually knocks him away. However, it may simply mean Wario's sickness wasn't cured by the garlic.

Wario-Man appears in ''[[WarioWare: D.I.Y. Showcase]]'', the [[WiiWare]] counterpart to ''[[WarioWare: D.I.Y.]]''. He helps people open doors to the bathroom. Succeeding one of the microgames will make Wario-Man successfully open a door to the bathroom. Failing a microgame causes Wario-Man to fail at opening the door.

Wario-Man cameos twice in ''[[Game & Wario]]'': in the second stage of a microgame in [[Gamer]], where he must avoid a [[dinosaur]]'s foot; and in one of the prizes of Cluck-A-Pop, where he is answering the phone after the player dials a phone number. It is notable that Wario-Man refers to himself as '''W-Man''' in the latter cameo, rather than his full name.

Wario-Man is Wario's [[Final Smash]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U]]''. Unlike most Final Smashes, Wario's Final Smash is more of a power-up than an attack. When the Final Smash is used, Wario eats [[Nasty Garlic]] and gains a superhero suit, greatly increasing his attack power and speed. He can use his regular attack moves at a much faster pace, enabling him to perform follow-up hits more easily.

When using his normal attacks, Wario-Man will hit with extra power, or gain added effects to the moves. His punches will act similarly to a [[Smash Attack (move)|Smash Attack]], and his mid-air moves allow him to gain altitude with each move (except his down aerial, which can now meteor smash). The [[Corkscrew (Super Smash Bros. series)|Corkscrew]] also gains electric effects, the [[Wario Bike]] travels much faster, and his [[Wario Waft]] can potentially be a one-hit KO if it's fully charged.

Much like with [[Giga Bowser]], Wario-Man is unaffected by [[Metal Box]]es, as he never takes a metallic appearance, even in a Metal Special Smash. However, Wario-Man's size can be altered by the use of [[Super Mushroom]]s, [[Poison Mushroom]]s, [[Lightning]], and the similar Special Smashes, which can increase or decrease his overall attack power.

Wario-Man returns in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' as Wario's Final Smash; however, instead of fighting as him, the Final Smash is more cinematic. Upon activating it, Wario eats the Nasty Garlic and dashes forwards, catching any opponents in front of him. If successful, he traps them in front of a bright-green background and lands a flurry of punches as multiple cartoon-styled onomatopoeia such as "BOOM!!" and "POW!" (reminiscent of those found in superhero comics) appear on-screen. Wario then finishes opponents off with a Wario Waft-like attack, which launches them away.<ref>Nintendo. (June 12, 2018).

His attack power doesn't change much, but he scampers like a cockroach, using moves like crazy! He can jump over buildings and use midair attacks to fly. Oh, and he doesn't flinch from attacks. Think twice about bringing out his motorcycle at this time...''

|''With just a little nibble of garlic, humble everyman Wario transforms into the hero of justice, Wario-Man! He's...still not really all that strong, but he does get quite a bit faster, and he can launch foes farther too. And like any good hero, he has the ability to fly...by spamming attacks in midair. Just like they all do it, right?''
