'''Wendy O. Koopa''' (known as '''Kootie Pie Koopa''' in the cartoons) is one of the [[Koopalings]], a clan of seven siblings who act as leaders of the [[Bowser's Minions|Koopa Troop]] under [[Bowser]] ([[Koopalings#Family relationship|originally considered his children]]). She is the only female member of the group and was named after famous musician {{iw|wikipedia|Wendy O. Williams}}, lead singer of the punk band {{wp|Plasmatics}}.

In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', the Koopalings are in charge of taking over the various kingdoms of the [[Mushroom World]]; Wendy decides to take over the kingdom of [[Water Land]]. Wendy steals the [[Magic Wand]] of Water Land's [[Kings|king]] and changes him into a [[Spike]]-esque {{iw|wikipedia|Kappa (folklore)|kappa}} or a [[Dino Rhino]], depending on the version of the game. Once Mario makes it through Water Land, he reaches Wendy's [[airship]]. Mario eventually makes his way into the spoiled Koopaling's cabin, where the two fight. Wendy attacks Mario by tackling him and shooting giant rings of candy at him. After two hits, she starts jumping around the room, while still throwing [[Ring (projectile)|candy ring]]s; However, Wendy is eventually defeated.


The official [[Prima Games]] guide of ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' describes Wendy as "the first female Koopaling".{{ref needed}}
Wendy is, more or less, a spoiled brat with a quick temper, often going into a rage over little things. She is also fairly materialistic and greedy.

==History==
[[File:WendyKoopa2 SMB3.png|thumb|upright=0.9|Wendy in ''Super Mario World''.]]
===''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''===
In ''[[Super Mario World]]'' and ''[[Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2]]'', during Bowser's invasion of [[Dinosaur Land]], Wendy takes over [[Chocolate Island]]. Mario survives its defenses and eventually reaches [[6 Wendy's Castle|Wendy's castle]].
[[Image:SMB3_WendyO.Koopa.jpg|thumb|left|Wendy O. Koopa holding a Magic Scepter.]]
In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', Wendy, along with her brothers, was in charge of taking over the various kingdoms of the [[Mushroom World]]; Wendy decided to take over the kingdom of [[Water Land]]. Easily taking over Water Land with her [[Airship]] and armies, Wendy stole the [[Magic Scepter]] of Water Land's king and changed him into a Kappa or a [[Dino Rhino]], depending on the version of the game.


In battle, Wendy attacks using the same attack pattern as [[Lemmy Koopa|Lemmy]]: she pops-out of a random [[Warp Pipe]] with two "Wendy Dolls" popping-out of two other pipes. Mario needs to dodge two diagonal [[Lava Bubble]]s and jump on Wendy three times to defeat her. Afterwards, Mario erases her castle with a large mop. The narration after her defeat indicated that she loved to sing, at least until Mario put a stop to her. However, this was added in by the localizers, as the Japanese version simply had a uniform text congratulating the player for defeating a Koopaling without even stating their individual names.
Traveling through the lakes of Water World, [[Mario]] managed to reach Wendy's airship. Passing all of Wendy's troops and defenses, Mario made his way into the spoiled Koopaling's cabin. Wendy tried to defeat Mario by tackling him and shooting giant rings of candy at him. After two hits she would try to start jumping around the room (in high heels), while still throwing [[Candy Ring]]s; these attack were to no avail though, Wendy was eventually defeated.


====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''====
===Anime===
[[File:Mario vs Wendy.png|thumb|upright=1.1|left|Mario battling Wendy at her [[castle]] in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'']]
Wendy, as well as her siblings were featured in the [[Super Mario Amada Series]], a set of three Japanese OVAs. In the Mario retelling of the story "Momotaro", Wendy and her siblings appear as minions of Bowser, aiding him in abducting [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]]. In "Shirayukihime (Snow White)" Wendy also appears as a minion of Bowser once again, like her brothers, Wendy ends up being beaten by Mario.
Wendy is a boss in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. She is first seen in the game's intro, where Wendy, the other Koopalings, and Bowser Jr. capture [[Princess Peach]] at her birthday party with a giant cake. They flee on their airship with [[Mario]] and the other player characters following closely behind. Wendy is the boss of [[World 4 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 4]]. When first confronted, Wendy gives a surprised and shocked reaction, then she throws her wand up while twirling around and catches it, and the battle starts. In both her [[tower]] and [[castle]] battles, Wendy attacks with her magic wand to generate [[Ring (projectile)|ring]]s that rebound from the walls (it dissolves after a set period of time). After conjuring a ring, she makes slow, graceful jumps towards the player characters a few times before casting another ring. Each time she is hit, she retreats into her shell and spins/slides it to the right and left of the room in an attempt to hit the player characters along with the remaining rings. She also jumps faster and higher after the player(s) and casts two rings at once when she is stomped on for the second time. When she is defeated by the third jump, she retreats back to her castle. A difference with the castle battle is that it begins with [[Kamek|Magikoopa]] causing the room to flood periodically, forcing players to have to avoid all of the rebounding rings and Wendy while waiting for the water to drain. The flood not only slows the movement of the player(s), but also that of Wendy and her rings. When the water is drained, Wendy can be stomped to be attacked. After three hits, Wendy falls off-screen, and the [[key]] to [[World 5 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 5]] appears. Wendy and the other Koopalings lastly appear in the ending, getting Bowser back up, only for [[Bowser's Castle]] to collapse on all of them.

====''New Super Mario Bros. 2''====
Wendy is a boss in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. She is fought in {{world-link|3|castlen2|World 3-Castle (New Super Mario Bros. 2)}}. Wendy throws her wand and performs a twirl before catching the wand, like in the previous game, before battling Mario once again. Much like in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', her battle once again takes place underwater, although this time, there are four blue pipes (two on each wall) where groups of three [[Cheep Cheep]]s swim out when Wendy jumps through the water. Two Cheep Cheeps also jump from the water while she attacks in her shell. She also needs to whistle in order to fill the room up with water and to get rid of it. After a short period of time, the water disappears, but it comes back again if Wendy is stomped on. Wendy does not use her magic wand in combat despite having it in her hand; instead, Wendy whistles to summon [[Cheep Cheep]]s like a [[Chargin' Chuck]]. Wendy is defeated after being stomped three times, leaving behind the key to [[World 4 (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 4]]. The Koopalings later proceed to attack Mario throughout Bowser's castle by firing spells that will turn him to stone if hit, and later aid Bowser when he is first defeated. After his final defeat, the Koopalings attempt to airlift him, but his size exceeds the Koopa Clown Car's carrying capacity, flinging them throughout the trees and the floor. Wendy herself is seen next to Ludwig, sulking.

===Cartoons===
[[File:NSMBU Wendy Koopa Artwork.png|thumb|Artwork from ''New Super Mario Bros. U'']]
[[Image:KootiePie.jpg|thumb|left|'''Kootie Pie Koopa'''.]]  
Wendy is a boss in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' and [[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe|its Nintendo Switch port]]. She is fought in [[Frosted Glacier]]'s [[castle]], [[Wendy's Shifting Castle]] in ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' and in [[Wendy's Thwomp Castle]] in ''[[New Super Luigi U]]''. Wendy has her own [[airship]], like each of the other Koopalings', with her face on the front, but Wendy's ship additionally has skids on the bottom matching the ice skates she wears in battle. In her area, Wendy utters a gleeful taunt when confronted by the player character, and before battling, Wendy gets surprised, then spins around in her figure skates to get ready for battle. During her boss fight, Wendy skates around the arena, shooting out two [[Ring (projectile)|energy ring]]s, and she can also spin jump from walls. When Wendy enters her shell after being stomped, the spinning sound begins after she moves around in her shell, whilst for other Koopalings it plays right after being stomped. After being stomped twice, Wendy will shoot out three rings instead. Like with the other Koopalings, Wendy takes three hits to defeat, upon which she falls off screen. Wendy is seen in the ending with the rest of the Koopalings, although they end up escaping by hanging onto Bowser's tail after the latter inadvertently destroyed [[Bowser Jr.]]'s (already damaged) ship.
In ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and ''[[Super Mario World (TV series)|Super Mario World]]'' cartoons, Wendy was renamed '''Kootie Pie Koopa'''. Kootie Pie, like Wendy, was a sixteen-year-old spoiled brat, who often whined and complained about everything. Kootie Pie would also throw temper-tantrums when she didn't get what she wanted.

Wendy appears alongside the other Koopalings as a placeable enemy in the final update for ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', being available in every game style except the ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' style. Wendy receives an original sprite for her appearance in the ''Super Mario Bros.'' style. When given wings, Wendy jumps much higher into the air.


===''Amada Anime Series: Super Mario Bros.''===
[[Image:SuperMarioAdventuresWendy.gif|thumb|Princess Toadstool, threatening to tear-up Wendy's favorite dress, much to Wendy's horror.]]
Wendy, as well as her siblings are featured in the [[Amada Anime Series: Super Mario Bros.|''Super Mario'' anime series]], a set of three Japanese OVAs. In the Mario retelling of the story "[[Super Mario Momotarō|Momotaro]]", Wendy appears as a minion of Bowser alongside the other Koopalings, aiding him in abducting [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]]. In [[Super Mario Shirayuki-hime|"Shirayuki-hime" ("Snow White")]] Wendy also appears in a similar role and ends up being beaten by Mario.
Wendy was also prominently featured in the [[Super Mario Adventures]] comic by [[Nintendo Power]]. This comic portrayed Wendy as the ''de facto'' leader of the Koopalings, being the most responsible of them.

===''Super Mario World: Mario to Yoshi no Bōken Land''===
[[Image:WendyCN.jpg|thumb|left|Stewardess Wendy in the Club Nintendo comic.]]
Wendy appeared in the interactive Anime adaptation of ''Super Mario World''. On Chocolate Island, she, alongside [[Lemmy Koopa|Lemmy]], [[Larry Koopa|Larry]], [[Ludwig von Koopa|Ludwig]], [[Morton Koopa Jr.|Morton]], and [[Roy Koopa|Roy]], ambushed Mario and Luigi at a fortress. She fought them first, and attempted to confuse the two by creating two copies of herself. However, she underestimated the Mario Bros., and when charging at Mario, he simply stepped aside, causing her to cling to dear life from the platform above a lava pit. Of the Koopalings in the anime, her strategy was the closest to the strategy she used in the game the anime adapted. This is overall the first instance Wendy has the ability to clone herself.
In the [[Club Nintendo]] comic "[[Super Mario: Erholung? Nein, danke!]]", Wendy works as a stewardess for the airline [[KoopAir]]. She acts very unfriendly, urging Mario and his fellows to enter the plane and, instead of delivering their meal, simply throwing [[pizza]] boxes at them. This comic also hints at Wendy's age, as she explains that she has done this job for 40 years. Wendy appears again at the end of the comic, where she can be seen dancing in a disco.

In ''[[Super Mario World]]'', during Bowser's invasion of [[Dinosaur Island]], Wendy took over [[Chocolate Island]]. Venturing inside Wendy's fortress, Mario managed to pass all the skewering defenses inside its walls and reached Wendy's chamber.
{{quote|I hate it when people try to steal back what I've already stolen!|Kootie Pie|[[Super Mario World (television series)|''Super Mario World'' television series]]}}
In ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and ''[[Super Mario World (television series)|Super Mario World]]'' cartoons produced by [[Nintendo]] and [[DIC Entertainment]], Wendy is renamed '''Kootie Pie Koopa''', a portmanteau of "Koopa" and "cutie pie", also implying "cootie". Kootie Pie is a sixteen-year-old spoiled brat, who often whines and complains about everything. Kootie Pie frequently drives those around her crazy by throwing temper-tantrums and furniture when she does not get what she wants. Kootie Pie refers to [[Bowser#DIC cartoons|King Koopa]] as "Daddykins," as opposed to the other Koopalings calling him "King Dad." She also has particular disdain for Princess Toadstool, who Kootie Pie sees as a rival. She is voiced by [[Tabitha St. Germain]] (credited as Paulina Gillis). Kootie Pie appears in ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' the most out of all the [[Koopalings#DIC cartoons|Koopa Kids]]. Not counting cameos, she appears in the following episodes of the two series:


====''The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3''====
In battle, Wendy would utilize the same attack pattern as her brother [[Lemmy Koopa|Lemmy]]; Wendy would pop-out of a random [[Warp Pipe]] with two "Wendy Dolls" popping-out of two other pipes. Mario would have to dodge a wayward [[Podoboo]] and bash Wendy on the head three times to defeat her.
;"[[Reptiles in the Rose Garden]]": The entire plot of this episode revolves around Bowser giving Kootie Pie the [[United States of America]] as a birthday present. During her reign as Empress of America, Kootie Pie enforces her own wicked laws on the citizens of America until Mario and Luigi rescue [[Mr. President|the President]] and warp her back to [[Dark Land]].
[[File:KootiePieKoopa-Human.jpg|thumb|Kootie Pie as a human in ''The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3'' episode "[[The Beauty of Kootie]]."]]
;"[[The Beauty of Kootie]]": Kootie Pie and [[Larry Koopa#DIC cartoons|Cheatsy]] are sent by Bowser to steal oil from the [[Sultan]]. In an attempt to stop Mario and Luigi from exposing them, Cheatsy turns Kootie Pie into a human that Mario falls in love with (though Cheatsy forgets to make her tail disappear, Mario does not seem to notice). Kootie Pie convinced Mario to lure the Sultan, his guard, Princess Toadstool and Toad into the dungeon before Cheatsy transforms her back into a Koopa.  


:To get revenge, Mario later used Cheatsy's dropped wand to transform Luigi into [[Kassanova Koopa]], who Kootie Pie falls madly in love with until she accidentally turns him back into a human. Angry at Luigi for kissing her, Kootie Pie and Cheatsy chase him into a trap that Mario and the others had set up, prompting them to retreat to the Doom Ship.
===''[[Mario is Missing!]]''===
;"[[Dadzilla]]": After being scolded by Bowser, Kootie Pie and [[Morton Koopa Jr.#DIC cartoons|Big Mouth]] are convinced that "King Dad" is not their true father, and venture to [[Hollywood]] to try and find their real one. The two Koopalings use their wands to bring a [[Madzilla]] robot to life and convince him that he was their father. With Madzilla on their side, Kootie Pie and Big Mouth run wildly in Hollywood until Mario stops Madzilla by controlling a robot of [[Madzilla's Mom]]. With Madzilla no longer on their side, Kootie Pie and Big Mouth return home.
Though absent from the [[NES]] and [[Super Nintendo]] versions of ''[[Mario is Missing!]]'', Wendy does appear in the PC version of the game. Aiding her family in their plan to melt Antarctica, Wendy guarded a corridor in Bowser's fortress.
;"[[A Toadally Magical Adventure]]": Kootie Pie accompanies Bowser, Big Mouth, [[Roy Koopa#DIC cartoons|Bully]] and Cheatsy on a mission to steal a special wand that is being delivered to the [[Wizard King of the West]]. At one point, when the Koopas have control of the wand, Kootie Pie uses it to enlarge the fence around [[Toad House|Toad's House]], which prevents Princess Toadstool from leaving.
;"[[Kootie Pie Rocks]]": Jealous that Princess Toadstool is able to attend a [[Milli Vanilli]] concert, Kootie Pie throws a tantrum until Bowser agrees to kidnap the duo just for her. Although Kootie Pie is thrilled to receive Milli Vanilli as her own private band, Rob and Fab are outraged at the situation. In disgust, Kootie Pie turns the two of them into accountants.  


:While eavesdropping, Mario and his friends learn that Milli Vanilli are unable to perform for Kootie Pie without a backup band, and sneak into the castle pretending to be one. Although they are unable to properly play the music for "{{wp|Girl You Know It's True}}," Kootie Pie is distracted long enough by the backup band for them to flee from Kastle Koopa with Milli Vanilli. Kootie Pie insists on getting them back, but Bowser hates their music to the point that he threatens to send her to the dungeon if she tries to bring them back and Kootie Pie reluctantly agrees.
Wendy was ultimately defeated by [[Luigi]], who was searching for his kidnapped brother.
;"[[Mush-Rumors]]": Upon learning that there are "aliens" in the [[Mushroom Kingdom]], the Koopalings relay the message to one-another, exaggerating the story each time, until Kootie Pie herself tells Bowser that the aliens are outrageous monsters, prompting Bowser to capture them. Although the aliens are actually a lost human family from Kansas, the Koopas strongly believe that they are in disguise until [[Ludwig von Koopa#DIC cartoons|Kooky]] proved that they are not.
;"[[Crimes R Us]]": [[Crime Wave Clyde]] is taken out of his Real World jail to educate the Koopalings on how to be a big time criminal. Along with her brothers, Kootie Pie goes along and commits various crimes until Crime Wave Clyde revolts and enlists the help of Mario and Luigi to stop the Koopalings.
;"[[7 Continents for 7 Koopas]]": Assigning his children to each take over one of the Real World's seven continents, Bowser orders Kootie Pie to wreak havoc in Europe. To achieve this, Kootie Pie magically alters the artwork at the [[Louvre]] to resemble her (i.e. turning the {{wp|Mona Lisa}} into the "Mona Kootie"). Mario later arrives to steal Kootie Pie's wand and undoes her damage.
;"[[Recycled Koopa]]": Along with several of her brothers, Kootie Pie is ordered by Bowser to dispose of the trash around Kastle Koopa. Kootie Pie fights with Bully until they decide to dump the trash down a [[Warp Pipe]], which ends up surrounding the [[Peach's Castle|Mushroom Castle]]. Mario steals and used [[Lemmy Koopa#DIC cartoons|Hip]]'s wand to send the trash back to Kastle Koopa. This encourages the Koopalings to order the [[Sledge Bro]]thers to dump the trash down a Warp Pipe to [[Brooklyn]], which ultimately leads to greater problems.
;"[[The Venice Menace]]": Wanting a water park of her very own, Bowser agrees to warp [[Venice]] to Dark Land for her very own, using the [[Doom Sub]] to scare everyone out of the city. Kootie Pie accompanies Bowser on this mission, but they are eventually foiled by Mario and Luigi, who warps the Doom Sub to Desert Land. Devastated, Kootie Pie throws a temper tantrum on the spot.
;"[[Super Koopa (episode)|Super Koopa]]": Along with Kooky, Hip and [[Iggy Koopa##DIC cartoons|Hop]], Kootie Pie travels to [[Paris]] once Bowser successfully captures Mario, Luigi and Princess Toadstool. While she is there, Kootie Pie tries on some bizarre-looking clothes that only Bowser seems to appreciate.


====''Super Mario World''====
===''[[Yoshi's Safari]]''===
;"[[Fire Sale]]": Upset that her new ice palace is freezing cold, Kootie Pie and a [[Koopa Troopa]] steal [[Mama Fireplant]] from [[Dome City]] to heat the place up. However, Mama Fireplant's fireballs cause the place to start melting just as Mario and his friends show up to rescue Mama Fireplant. Trying to fight back, Kootie Pie freezes herself by accidentally stepping on a [[porcupinefish]], and Mario, Luigi and Princess Toadstool end up doing the same. [[Yoshi]] eventually overcomes his fear of water to save the day, leaving Kootie Pie frozen in her own ice palace.
In ''[[Yoshi's Safari]]'', after her father takes over [[Jewelry Land]], Wendy decides to inhabit [[Pipe Island]]. In her battle against Mario and [[Yoshi]], Wendy would utilize an indestructible shield, pop-out of [[Warp Pipe]]s and hurl bombs.
;"[[Send in the Clown]]": In her last animation appearance, Kootie Pie assists Big Mouth in setting up posters for Bowser's circus, which is actually a ruse to lure the [[Cave People]] to the Neon Castle. Kootie Pie has no lines of dialogue aside from laughter in this episode despite her screen time.


===''Nintendo Comics System''===
In order to harm Wendy, Mario would have to use his [[Super Scope]] to knock down a nearby [[Anvil Man]] Wendy's head. After doing this repeatedly, Mario would have defeated Wendy.
Wendy is also featured in the ''[[Nintendo Comics System]]''. Wendy even has an entire comic dedicated to her called "[[Fins and Roses]]", which has her on a misadventure with [[Stanley the Talking Fish]].


===''Nintendo Adventure Books''===
===''[[Hotel Mario]]''===
In ''[[Double Trouble (book)|Double Trouble]]'', if Mario chooses to ascend a flight of stairs while being chased by Bowser through his [[Koopahari Desert]] [[Fortress]], he eventually finds and enters Wendy's room, where she and her [[GLOM]]-created clones (which are dispensed by a vent in the floor, and number in the dozens) swarm him, leading to a [[Game Over]].
In ''[[Hotel Mario]]'', Wendy is the owner and boss of [[Wendy's Blitz Snarlton Hotel]]; a hotel with a casino theme. Located in [[Wendy O's Sweet Suite]], Wendy would attack Mario by summoning hearts to open doors and attack Mario. Eventually, Wendy is defeated though.


In ''[[Leaping Lizards]]'', Wendy and five of her brothers enter as a team in the [[International Mushroom Games]], though the only competition it is mentioned she competes in is the Beetlebowl, an all-team game. If the reader chooses Mario, Luigi, and Princess Toadstool as their offensive team, Wendy easily captures a [[Hoopster]], nonchalantly steps over [[Toad]] (the only defender left, due to [[Wooster]] and the [[Mushroom King]] wandering off), and scores by slamming it into her opponents' bucket. If Toadstool, Toad, Wooster, and the Mushroom King are picked as the offensive line, Wendy teams up with Roy (who creates a fake Hoopster as a distraction) to get past the Mario Bros. and score.
===''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''===
[[Image:Koopalings - Wendy O..gif|thumb|left]] After several years of absence from a Mario game, Wendy makes a return appearance in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. While [[Bowletta]] was invading the [[Beanbean Kingdom]] in [[Bowser's Castle]], Wendy acted as a guard in the castle. After solving a small puzzle, Mario and Luigi were capable of battling Wendy.


In ''[[Koopa Capers]]'', Wendy disappears mysteriously, and Bowser, fearing she may have been kidnapped, forces Luigi into looking for her. During his search, Luigi discovers Wendy was not abducted but has been in hiding, working on overthrowing Bowser by organizing minions loyal only to her and by concocting a potion (which she learned about by reading Bowser's book ''Reptile Magic and VCR Programming Instructions'') that will combine her magic wand with her brothers' wands (which she had stolen) to create a "super wand." By following Luigi, Bowser and the other Koopalings confront Wendy in her hidden chamber, but they are willing to put off punishing her if she helps them search for Luigi, who is hiding in the room. If Luigi has [[Boom-Boom's socks]] (which were meant for Wendy's potion but were lost by her loyalists), he can toss them into Wendy's simmering pot and knock the entire Koopa family out (the potion needed only one sock; any more than that, and it will emit a gas that instantly puts Koopas into a deep sleep for at least a week).
In combat, Wendy would attack Mario and Luigi by spitting fireballs at them and by flinging her bracelets at them; these bracelets would expand and close around either Mario or Luigi.


===''Super Mario Adventures''===
Despite having a [[Lethal Bob-omb]] on her side, Wendy was still defeated by the combined power of the Mario Bros.
Wendy is also prominently featured in the ''[[Super Mario Adventures]]'' comic by ''[[Nintendo Power]]''. This comic portrays Wendy as the ''de facto'' leader of the Koopalings, being the most responsible of them.


===''Club Nintendo''===
==Personality==
[[File:WendyCN.jpg|thumb|left|Stewardess Wendy in the ''Club Nintendo'' comic]]
Wendy is portrayed as a spoiled brat. She is also shown to be very greedy. This is proven in Hotel Mario. The comics proved she thought of herself as Bowser's favorite child. Her personality in the cartoons had no differences. The in-game text in Super Mario World stated she spent her time in her castle singing.
In the ''[[Club Nintendo (magazine)|Club Nintendo]]'' comic "[[Super Mario: Erholung? Nein, danke!]]", Wendy works as a stewardess for the airline [[KoopAir]]. She acts very unfriendly, urging Mario and his fellows to enter the plane and, instead of delivering their meal, simply throws pizza boxes at them. This comic also hints at Wendy's age, as she explains that she has done this job for 40 years, and she is also seen smoking at one point. Wendy appears again at the end of the comic, where she can be seen dancing in a disco.


===''Mario is Missing!''===
==Physical Appearance==
[[File:Mario Captured.gif|thumb|Wendy and [[Lemmy Koopa|Lemmy]] witnessing Bowser's capture of Mario.]]
[[Image:KootiePieKoopa-Human.jpg|thumb|Kootie as a human (her bow is on the other side of her head).]]
'''Wendy Koopa''' (as she is called) appears in the [[Mario is Missing! (PC)|PC version of ''Mario is Missing!'']]. Aiding her family in their plan to melt [[Antarctica]], Wendy guards a corridor in [[Bowser's Castle|Bowser's castle]], and is also directly involved alongside Bowser in capturing Mario.
Wendy is the only female Koopaling and has quite a few physical differences from her brothers. She is one of the only two Koopalings to have a pink shell. She strangely has a circular shaped mouth for some reason. She has bracelets on her arms replacing her brothers' and father's spiked collars. She also has a red beaded necklace around her neck. Ironically, despite being the only female Koopaling she has no hair and has a large pink bow replacing it.


Wendy is ultimately defeated by [[Luigi]], who is searching for his kidnapped brother.
==Bio from ''The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3'' Writers Bible==
''She's snobbish, spoiled and deceitful, and those are her good traits. A vain teen queen, Kootie Pie despises the princess and her goody-two-shoes ways. King Koopa gives her everything she asks for. He turns into a totally permissive parent whenever Kootie Pie whines "I want!". Anything anybody else has, Kootie Pie wants. And anything she already has, she wants two of. Kootie Pie is not that bright, but has megawatts of intensity and laser-sharp focus. When she gets hold of an idea, she does not let go.''


===''Yoshi's Safari''===
==Trivia==
Wendy is a boss in ''[[Yoshi's Safari]]''. Following Bowser's takeover of [[Jewelry Land]], Wendy resides in [[Pipe Island]], where she guards a light-blue rectangular gem. In her battle against Mario and [[Yoshi]], Wendy uses an indestructible shield, hiding inside [[Warp Pipe]]s while she hurls bombs. A winged [[anvil]] flies back and forth before turning and shooting horseshoes at Mario. When it does so, it provides Mario with the opportunity to shoot it with his [[Super Scope]], causing it to fall and onto Wendy if she is below it at the time. Being hit by the anvil three times defeats Wendy.
*Wendy was possibly named after famous musician [[Wikipedia: Wendy O. Williams|Wendy O. Williams]], lead singer of the punk band the [[Wikipedia: Plasmatics|Plasmatics]].
*Wendy is known by being the first female villain in the Mario series, although [[Birdo]], of ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', has been retconned into being female.
*In most of Wendy's appearances, she copies her older brother Lemmy's attack pattern.

In ''[[Hotel Mario]]'', Wendy is the owner and boss of [[Wendy's Blitz Snarlton Hotel]]; a hotel with a casino theme. Located in [[Wendy's Sweet Suite]], Wendy attacks Mario by summoning hearts to open doors and attack Mario. She stays on the highest floor the entire battle, rather than using elevators to travel between floors in pursuit of the Mario Bros. This unique strategy may be the reason for why Wendy is one of the three Koopalings who do not try and eat Mario or Luigi when they catch them (the other two being [[Lemmy Koopa|Lemmy]] and [[Iggy Koopa|Iggy]]).

===''Mario & Luigi'' series===
====''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga''====
{{br|left}}
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', while [[Bowletta]] invades the [[Beanbean Kingdom]] in [[Bowser's Castle]], Wendy acts as a guard in the castle as the sixth Koopaling to be fought. After solving a small puzzle that requires Mario and Luigi to hit Wendy twice in a row with a hammer, Mario and Luigi battle Wendy.
 
In combat, Wendy attacks Mario and Luigi by spitting fireballs at them (as all the Koopalings) and by flinging her bracelets at them. These bracelets expand and close around either Mario or Luigi. As with [[Lemmy Koopa|Lemmy]], she disguises [[Spiny|Spinies]] as herself. She has a [[Time Bob-omb]] on her side during her battle, which forces Mario and Luigi to defeat her in a set amount of turns.
 
Defeating Wendy raises a platform, allowing the Mario Brothers to reach [[Larry Koopa|Larry]].
 
====''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam''====
Wendy reappears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]''. She first appears in [[Doop Doop Dunes]] with [[Ludwig von Koopa|Ludwig]], [[Larry Koopa|Larry]] and [[Roy Koopa|Roy]] where they capture Mario, Luigi and Paper Mario. She later appears in the [[Twinsy Tropics Dungeon]] alongside Roy where they oversee the mining of a special ore that Bowser requires. During this encounter, she is fought alongside Roy. Upon being defeated, she angrily blames Larry for the loss (as Larry failed to arrive when she and Roy called for him to aid in beating Mario & co. up). Wendy later appears in [[Neo Bowser Castle]], where she tries to help Bowser and Iggy stop Mario & co. from getting one of the fire orbs needed to create Papercraft Fire Mario. Wendy is encountered one last time alongside the rest of the Koopalings at the top of Neo Bowser Castle. Wendy and Roy briefly tell Mario & co. that they will finish them once and for all before battling them one last time. After being defeated by Mario & co., Wendy utters some last words, telling the Mario gang that they may have lost but they can do better, before exploding.
 
During Wendy and Roy's battles, Wendy's only attack she can perform without Roy is throwing magical bracelets that Mario, Luigi, and Paper Mario must counter by jumping. If Roy's boulder attack is successfully countered, a chunk of it will break off and hit Wendy; she will glare at Roy and sometimes retaliate by beating him up. Wendy can also team up with Roy and curl into her shell. Roy will spin and hit Wendy's shell at the trio, which is countered by hammering it back each time; if one of the trio is hit, Wendy's shell will come back and deal damage to all three of them. The final attack features Roy chasing after the brothers with a giant iron ball that has Roy's face symbol on it, while Wendy runs in front of him chucking fireballs at Paper Mario in airplane mode. Paper Mario can be steered so that when Roy throws the ball, it will hit Wendy, who lands on Roy. Similar to the Larry and Ludwig battle, when one Koopaling is defeated, the other pulls out a magic wand and summons a massive fireball that must be blocked using the hammer, and if the enemy is hit, she or he will take great damage.
 
Wendy and Roy are the first two Koopalings that are summoned together by [[Dry Bowser]] in the [[Battle Ring (Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam)|Battle Ring]]. During this battle, Wendy will not attack Roy if his boulder attack is countered.

====''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions''====
{{quote|Go on, try your best! It won’t be enough.|'''Wendy'''|''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions''}}
Wendy appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'' with the same role in the main campaign as the original game, though with her voice clips and added dialogue. Instead of disguising Spinies as clones of herself, her clones are now conjured from her wand. At low health, she will make five clones instead of three. She now spins around, switching positions with her clones every turn. Her attacks have been modified slightly: she now creates a big fireball with her clones, and her clones will perform the bracelet attack with her.
 
She also appears in the added on alternate story mode ''Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser'' as a Ranged-type ally. Wendy first appears in the game’s opening, inside the flying [[Koopa Cruiser]] where she, Roy and Iggy proceed to taunt two Goombas that are placed in barrels. When Roy expresses a desire to play a big part in Bowser's schemes, she proceeds to mock Roy's slowness, causing them to nearly get into a fight. Upon learning that the Koopa Cruiser was under attack she and Roy attempted to stop the attack, but learned to their shock that, while the attack was quelled, the main engine took a direct hit and was due to explode. Later, she and the other Koopalings get brainwashed by [[Fawful]] and try to conquer the [[Beanbean Kingdom]] afterwards. Wendy is requited after [[Captain Goomba (Mario & Luigi series)|Captain Goomba]] defeats her in the [[Gwarhar Lagoon]]. Wendy attacks by throwing her [[Ring (projectile)|ring]]s at enemies. Her special skill, Piercing Projectile, allows Wendy to target an enemy and throw a ring at them, attacking the targeted enemy twice and damaging any enemy in its path. During her battle, she can attack using the [[Volleybomb (move)|Pass the Bob-omb]] captain command.

{{quote|Hmph! That’s [[Roy Koopa|one less fool]] for me to deal with. Now, where was I? Oh, yeah. LET’S DO THIS!!|'''Wendy'''|''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey''}}
Wendy appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', in the game's new side story ''Bowser Jr.'s Journey''. During the opening cutscenes, she and Roy talk with the [[Best Fitness Friends]] about [[Skeletone Formula:D]], a cure for the recent Blorbs outbreak, and are given the recipe. As Bowser Jr.'s strength was being tested, Wendy battles him alongside Iggy, and afterwards joins Bowser Jr. and the other Koopalings (apart from Lemmy, who stayed at Bowser's Castle) to find the ingredients for Skeletone Formula:D.
 
When Ludwig left, he appointed Wendy to take care of Bowser Jr. in his stead, knowing he might have a chance at listening to her, much to her objection. She eventually left alongside Larry to head back to Bowser's Castle after [[Kaley]] informed them that it was under attack, although not before protesting to Bowser Jr. that his father never treated them as badly as he did before Larry told her to forget it. They also witnessed Dieter beat up Lemmy before rousting him and trying to escape. Unfortunately, they were not able to make it far before all three were trapped in barrels. Larry and Lemmy managed to escaped in the chaos caused by Bowser's Castle relocating itself and Bowser fighting the castle, although Wendy was not nearly as lucky. Dieter, alongside Beef (whom they retrieved from the storage compartment) and Kaley, later used her as a hostage to force Bowser Jr. to lose against them, although she was saved by the Four Flag Captains. After this, she rejoins Bowser Jr.'s side and thanks him for saving her. In the ending, she and Bowser Jr. stand together, the latter being in a barrel for unknown reasons, during the festivities celebrating Fawful's defeat.

====''Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games''====
Wendy appears as a Mii costume in the Wii version of ''[[Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (Wii)|Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games]]'' only. Her costume can be unlocked by playing as a Mii ten times in the single event mode. Once the player puts her costume on a Mii, that Mii gains all of Wendy's traits. She is best in the speed and skill category and fairly low in the power category. The rest of the Koopalings all have their own costumes and specific traits as well and their own way to unlock each one.

Wendy reappears as a Technique-type guest character in ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020]]'', and is again exclusive to the 100m Freestyle event.


In the story mode, Luigi and Tails follow Bowser Jr. to the Tokyo Aquatics Centre where they run into Wendy, who demands a swimming match if they want the game console back. [[Silver|Silver the Hedgehog]] agrees to take her on. As soon as Silver wins, Wendy pretends to whimper dramatically over her loss to catch Silver and the others off-guard, right before she gives the console to Bowser Jr., who runs off to Eggman Nega. Later on, when Luigi and Tails run into Ludwig at Makuhari Messe Venue B, Ludwig steals the battery Luigi and Tails earned from Larry and Wendy retrieves it. Ludwig demands a fencing match where the winner earns the battery, which [[Waluigi]] accepts. After Ludwig is beaten, Wendy remarks in shock as to how Ludwig would lose to Waluigi of all people. She jumps in shock when the battery gets charged from the excitement of the spectators, allowing Luigi and Tails to receive it. Afterwards, Ludwig and Wendy allow them to have the battery.

Wendy, alongside the rest of the Koopalings, appears as a playable character for the first time in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', where she is an unlockable character. This time, she is voiced by [[Ashley Flannegan]].

Her emblem is a pink silhouette of her head on a black background. The CPU-controlled Wendy can drive, along with the usual three standard bodies ([[Standard Kart]] with [[Standard (tire)|Standard]] tires, [[Standard Bike]] with [[Slim (tire)|Slim]] tires, [[Standard ATV]] with [[Monster (tire)|Monster]] tires) and the [[Pipe Frame]] with [[Standard (tire)|Standard]] tires, the [[Landship]] with the [[Wood]] tires.

Wendy is the Normal Staff Ghost for [[Dolphin Shoals]]. She doesn't have an advertisement of her own like the other Koopalings, but section C of the local info map on [[Super Bell Subway]] reveals that she has her own company, "Wendy's Car Interiors".<ref>{{file link|MK8 dSBS City Map.png|The map of the city where the Super Bell Subway course is found}}.

Wendy's main color for her [[Standard]] parts and [[Pipe Frame]] is her signature pink, and her secondary color is light blue. The color scheme selection of her other parts is also based on pink, making it similar to that of Pink [[Mii]]s. Exceptions to this are her [[Circuit Special]] and [[GLA]].

Notably she is the only Koopaling whose [[rival|rivals]] are not Koopalings, but rather [[Princess Peach|Peach]] and [[Princess Daisy|Daisy]], whom she considers her rivals. As a result, she is also the only Koopaling not to appear as a rival for anyone else.

She, like the other Koopalings, are accessible via Bowser Jr.'s {{iw|smashwiki|alternate costume}}. Wendy is unlockable in the former game and available from the start in the latter. Her attacks and statistics are identical to Bowser Jr.'s, though she is referred to by her own name by the announcer and has her own voice clips. Wendy can also appear in place of Bowser Jr. in All-Star mode (like the other Koopalings).


Like the other Koopalings, she is actually driving a mass-produced version of the Junior Clown Car (as noted by the yellow light bulbs that serve as its eyes). The rim and propeller of her Junior Clown Car are colored pink (her signature color). She also reuses her voice clips from her appearance in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', thus she is voiced by [[Lani Minella]].

{{quote|And now that I've gotten some peaceful rest, it's time to help [[Mario|you]] rest in peace!|Wendy O. Koopa|Paper Mario: Color Splash}}
Wendy is a boss in ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]''. She is encountered deep in a cave on [[Fortune Island]] emerging from a clamshell, and guarding the purple [[Big Paint Star]].
 
Before the battle starts, she tells Mario that she had been waiting for him forever and that she was beginning to think he would have stood her up, as if they were lovers. But then Wendy kills the mood as she has actually been sent by Bowser to guard the purple Big Paint Star.
 
Normally, during the battle, a treasure chest and clamshell in the background open up, revealing [[coin]]s or enemies. Wendy will then send them towards Mario to the rhythm of the music, much similar to [[Gooper Blooper#Paper Mario: Sticker Star|Gooper Blooper]] in ''Paper Mario: Sticker Star''. Failing to block the coin attacks will give Mario coins proportional to the damage from the attack. After taking enough damage, Wendy will start to prepare her [[Ring (projectile)|golden ring]] attack. The Instant Camera [[Battle Card (Paper Mario: Color Splash)#Thing Cards|Thing Card]] needs to be used here so the ring traps the picture of Mario. If it is not used though, Mario gets trapped by it. After a turn has passed, Wendy decides to break the ring by making a shower of coins fall down. If it is the picture that is stuck, the fight continues normally, but if Mario is stuck in the ring, he will lose all of his [[Heart Point|HP]] instantly.
 
After Mario defeats her, she tells him that he is kind of cute but asks him not to tell Mr. Bowser about that.
 
Wendy's appearance and idle pose both outside and inside the battle with her is based on artwork used in the ''[[Encyclopedia Super Mario Bros.|Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia]]'' and in material released for the 30th anniversary of Super Mario Bros., with the eyes changed to black as it is commonly done for paper characters. As a consequence of that, her eyebrows are black instead of being brown.

===''Monopoly Gamer''===
Wendy is included (along with the other Koopalings) as a Boss in the Boss Deck of ''[[Monopoly Gamer]]''. She is the third Boss in the deck.
 
===''Mario Tennis Aces''===
While Wendy and the other Koopalings do not appear in ''[[Mario Tennis Aces]]'', their [[airship]]s can be seen in the background of the [[Savage Sea]] court.
 
===''Dr. Mario World''===
[[File:DrMarioWorld - Icon Wendy.png|thumb|Wendy's icon in ''Dr. Mario World''.]]
Wendy takes on the role of a doctor in ''[[Dr. Mario World]]'', where she is known as '''Dr. Wendy'''. Dr. Wendy's skill involves [[Brick Block|brick block]]s, where in stage mode it breaks them from up to 10 of them, while in versus mode it hides a number of [[virus]]es in the opponent's play area in blocks. The amount of viruses affected by this skill differ based on level, where it is two at level 1 and ten at level 5 (the latter with the added effect of filling the skill meter faster). In stage mode, using this skill when there are no more brick blocks left will eliminate a random virus or object (if there are no viruses left), although [[capsule]]s cannot be removed by this skill.

Wendy and the other Koopalings do not physically appear, though Wendy is one of the names seen competing in the [[Bonny Greens]] Open in ''[[Mario Golf: Super Rush]]''.

==General information==
===Physical appearance===
[[File:Wendy colouring book.png|thumb|The current appearance of Wendy in the ''[[Encyclopedia Super Mario Bros.]]'']]
Like most of the other Koopalings, Wendy has a yellow and tan skin complexion, but she is unique in that her head is also this color, unlike Bowser and the other Koopalings, whose heads do not match their body scales. As the only female Koopaling, Wendy has obvious physical differences, but in terms of body she appears to be most similar to Larry; the main difference being her thinning, feminine legs, and her overall height, that even early official material showed being taller than Larry's.<ref>{{cite|url=pressthebuttons.typepad.com/.a/6a00d83452033569e201b8d0b43f5b970c|title=1993 Nintendo Character Guide Comparison Chart|publisher=Press The Buttons|accessdate=May 18, 2024}}</ref> Wendy has a four-ribbed, plated belly, and her head is a very simple round shape. Her mouth is puffy, round and gives the impression that she is wearing pink lipstick; her cheeks are also very round and baby-faced.
 
Even though she is the sole female Koopaling, Wendy appears to be relatively bald, even though some of her brothers have full hair. The only time she was depicted with hair was in the Nintendo Club comic "[[Super Mario: Erholung? Nein, danke!]]", where she was a brown-haired stewardess. Kootie Pie was also transformed into a blonde human in ''The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3'' episode "[[The Beauty of Kootie]]", although her tail remained. Additionally, she has a mole on her right cheek that Wendy does not have in any video game appearance. Recent games have revealed that her eyebrows are brown, and like her eyelashes, extend off her face. Her eyes themselves are large and round with two eyelashes, and her light blue irises are roughly the same as Larry's.
 
[[File:SMW-Wendy-NoShoesSprites.png|frame|left|Shoeless ''Super Mario World'' sprites]]
Rather than wearing the spiked cuffs the male Koopalings have, Wendy has large, golden bracelets on her wrists. She usually wears a long, beaded pearled, red necklace and thick, pink heels (being the first member of the Koopa species to wear any type of shoes), as opposed to the other bare-footed Koopalings. A large pink bow with white polka-dots is also included in her appearance, similar to [[Birdo]]'s bow (aside from the coloration). Wendy's shell is pink, lined with a white encasing, and the multiple, short spikes are circled with gray rings. In the DIC cartoons, she has three spikes (without rings) on her shell and a small pink bow around her tail. Wendy's in-game sprites in both ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' and ''Super Mario World'' depict her with a red head and shell coloration, a white bow with red polka-dots, red lipstick, iris-less eyes, and no necklace; additionally, ''Super Mario World'' gives her bare feet with rings around them (due to the body graphics being shared with Lemmy), depicts her bracelets as red cuffs without spikes, and in several sprites, gives her teeth. Many battle animations in ''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam'' confirm that she indeed has a complete set of teeth, none of which stick out of her mouth.<ref>{{cite|author=BeardBear|date=December 2, 2015|url=www.youtube.com/watch?v=QSHpnUGGcYI|title=Mario & Luigi Paper Jam Walkthrough Part 6 {{!}} Twinsy Tropics Dungeon, Cards & Bosses Wendy and Roy|publisher=YouTube|language=en|accessdate=May 18, 2024}}</ref>
 
In the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series, Wendy's appearance is unaltered compared to most ''Super Mario'' characters, including Bowser. In ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', however, Wendy receives a slightly darker and subdued color scheme, while her spikes, shell, bow, and shoes receive simple detailing. These traits are only partially shared with Bowser Jr. and the other Koopalings.
 
In ''Dr. Mario World'', Wendy, or rather, Dr. Wendy, has a white armband with a pill design on it as well as a satchel, although she otherwise appears the same as she usually does.
 
===Development===

}}
Wendy's design has only seen minor changes since her preliminary sketch. Said sketch is faintly visible and only shows her head, but it is nonetheless possible to note in it her current features such as the round mouth with visible lips, her eyebrows that extend off her face and her bow. The main differences appear to be the shape of the bow, whose lobes are attached below the knot of the bow rather than directly to it as in her design since ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''.
 
Her redesign in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'' also brings minor changes. The spikes of the shell becomes beige instead of white and are surrounded at the base by gray circles, furthermore the eyebrows become brown instead of black, finally her tail becomes visible also in hand-drawn and artwork illustrations instead of being visible only in the sprites of some games.
 
===Personality and traits===
Wendy is shown to be very desiring of wealth and prestige; her being the one of two Koopalings in ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' to drop 102 coins instead of 99 may be a reference to her greed. The comics and to some extent the DiC cartoons typically portray her as a spoiled brat, and she even thinks of herself as Bowser's favorite child. She does whatever she can to impress her father and likes to be congratulated for her bad deeds. Her personality in the cartoons highlights these traits further, and she is shown to have a very short temper over little things and can be violent when provoked. This latter trait is further confirmed in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'', though she isn't portrayed as spoiled. After being hit by debris coming from a boulder broken by mistake by Roy when fighting the Mario brothers and Paper Mario, she gets angry at Roy and fights him instead of the brothers and Paper Mario.<ref>{{cite|author=BeardBear|date=December 2, 2015|url=youtu.be/QSHpnUGGcYI?t=3556|timestamp=00:59:16|title=Mario & Luigi Paper Jam Walkthrough Part 6 {{!}} Twinsy Tropics Dungeon, Cards & Bosses Wendy and Roy|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=May 18, 2024}}</ref> She seems to have a bit of a rivalry with Roy, as she makes some smart remarks at Roy's expense, as evidenced by the opening for ''Bowser's Minions''.

The English in-game text in ''Super Mario World'' implies she spends her time in her castle singing. In the PC version of ''[[Mario is Missing! (PC)|Mario is Missing!]]'', Wendy acts exceedingly girlish, perhaps in a mocking manner. In ''Mario Kart 8'', while she does not have her own billboard advertising her company unlike her brothers, the map for [[Super Bell Subway]] lists her company as "Wendy's Interior Designs", implying that she holds an interest in interior decorating for various locales.
 
It is stated in her bio on the Japanese ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' website that she is a "strong-minded, intrusive tomboy."<ref> [http://www.nintendo.co.jp/wii/smnj/story/index.html Nintendo.co.jp - ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' character page] (Click on the blue circle with the arrow to reach the Koopaling page and click on the pictures to see the short bio of each of the Koopalings.) [http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/960544-new-super-mario-bros-wii/52367637 Translation] (Retrieved June 26, 2024)</ref> The tomboyish traits are reconfirmed in the bio from the ''[[Encyclopedia Super Mario Bros.]]'', with the Official Nintendo Power guide to ''Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3'' claiming that Wendy had to learn to be tough, growing up as the only female among the Koopalings. As of ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', Wendy is shown to have a high-pitched voice. Since ''Mario Kart 8'', her voice was drastically changed to sound more sassy, resembling that of a teenage girl.
 
''New Super Mario Bros. U'' implies that she is somewhat giddy, although obviously not to the same extent as Iggy, due to her reaction when encountering Mario.
 
Also, she is shown to be somewhat surly in the Nintendo Club comic "Super Mario: Erholung? Nein, danke!" and is also implied in the same comic to love disco dances.
 
She seems to love water, as she is fought in regions that deal with water in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' and ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', and both ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' and ''New Super Mario Bros. 2'' has Wendy utilizing underwater combat when fighting Mario. Her events in ''Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games'' and ''Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020'' are the 100m Freestyle, which also shows her love of water, and that she is an experienced swimmer.
 
The ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' manual also implies that Wendy is concise, thoughtful and studious regarding threats she hasn't encountered before, in this case Mario.
 
In volume 42 of ''Super Mario-Kun'', Wendy has an apparent affection for Mario and uses her [[Ring (projectile)|ring]]s to keep him captive. In ''Paper Mario: Color Splash'', a milder affection is shown as after being beaten she consoles herself of having lost to Mario, that she states being ''kind of cute'', concluding with a titter after having said that. 
 
Her trophy information in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'' states that she has a rivalry with Peach and Daisy, which was further supported by dialogue from ''Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympics for the Wii U''. This was eventually confirmed in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', where Wendy's two rivals are Peach and Daisy. Her trophy and Boxing Ring titles also state that she is bold, bossy, and big-headed.
 
In the adventure book story "Koopa Caper", Wendy is depicted as being treacherous, although her actions in the game itself as well as Japanese promotional materials conflict with this, depicting her as being fanatically devoted to Bowser and his cause.
 
In the Wii U and the 3DS versions of ''Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympics'', Wendy was depicted as being arrogant regarding her skills, and also somewhat respectful regarding her opponents. However, she also makes clear that she does not like losing and that, while she will accept a loss, she expects a rematch in return. She demonstrated similar behavior when defeated in ''Paper Jam'', where she says they will fight again for the "third, fourth, fifth time". She also, at least in the Wii U version, considered her a sassy heroine, and was quick to claim that Peach and Daisy didn't count as such. She also implied that Larry left her a seat and that she hates having to see an empty seat at the stadium when she is competing, even if that seat was her own (and she also indicated that she hated it if Larry reserved her a seat since it implied the possibility that she might lose).
 
In ''Mario & Sonic at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games'', Wendy also appears to be somewhat cunning, though not to the same extent as Ludwig, as shown when she loses to Silver in freestyle swimming, when she pretends to dramatically whimper over her loss to catch Luigi, Tails, and Silver off-guard so she can give the game console to Bowser Jr.
 
''Bowser Jr.'s Journey'' implies that she suffers from claustrophobia, as when Dieter and Beef juggle her around while trapped in a barrel, she complains about feeling sick.
 
===Powers and abilities===
Wendy has displayed some unique abilities throughout her appearances as a boss character. In ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' and ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', Wendy uses her wand to create up to three [[Ring (projectile)|ring]]s that float around colliding with each other and the environment. The rings can glide through water as well, although at lower speeds, and over time they dissipate. In ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'', she did not have to use her wand to create rings that would close in on the Mario bros. once they appear beneath them. This game also had Wendy breathing fireballs and creating [[Spiny]]s disguised as clones of herself, an ability shared with Lemmy and reminiscent of how they used similar-looking "dolls" to confuse Mario in ''Super Mario World''. In the interactive anime adaptation ''Super Mario World: Mario to Yoshi no Bōken Land'', Wendy was demonstrated to utilize actual copies of herself to confuse the Mario Bros., and was shown to utilize a similar ability in ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' during her boss fight against them, where she disguised Spinies as herself. Wendy is shown running and jumping in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' and ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', and the latter also showed her spinning inside of her shell for offensive and defensive purposes. ''New Super Mario Bros. 2'' also showed her as being an adept swimmer. ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' also depicts her as being skilled at ice-skating. In addition, like Bowser and the other Koopalings, she has superhuman durability, surviving near-death situations, such as being dunked into lava (and later having her castle being wiped away while she was still inside in ''Super Mario World''), her surviving being blasted with a [[Fire Flower|fire flower]] in ''Mario is Missing!'', her surviving being crushed by Bowser's castle in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', and her surviving being knocked into a lava pit by a newly-gargantuan Bowser in ''New Super Mario Bros. 2''.
