'''Young Professor Elvin Gadd'''{{ref needed}}, (known as 過去のオヤ・マー博士 '''Kakono Oya Mā-hakase''' in the ''Super Mario-Kun'') is the younger version of [[Professor Elvin Gadd]] who appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', identical in appearance to his older self, with the exception of his hair being black, his voice being higher pitched and having no wrinkles on his face. Young E. Gadd is encountered in his lab on [[Thwomp Volcano]] as it is erupting, studying [[Thwomp]]s and the history of the volcano itself. During the eruption, Young E. Gadd's lab is destroyed by Thwomps that fall through the building, including a massive, flaming one that is about to explode. Seeing [[Baby Mario]] douse the giant Thwomp, the memories of his present-day self suddenly start to be rearranged, and he has the idea of building the [[Hydrogush 4000]].

Additionally, his voice is higher pitched than that of his older self. Of all the characters who have younger selves, Elvin Gadd is the only one that does not interact with his present-day self. Elvin Gadd is encountered in his lab on Thwomp Volcano as it is erupting, studying Thwomps and the history of the volcano itself. During the eruption, Elvin Gadd's lab is destroyed by Thwomps that fall through the building, including a massive, flaming one that is about to explode. Seeing Baby Mario douse the giant Thwomp, the memories of his present-day self suddenly start to be rearranged, and he has the idea of building the Hydrogush 4000.
