'''Tiny Wario''', also known as '''Small Wario''', is one of [[Wario]]'s many transformations in the [[Wario Land (series)|''Wario Land'' series]]. This transformation was first seen in ''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]'' after [[Mario]] defeated [[Fire Mario|Fire Wario]]. When small, he does not wear a hat and is either a bald or has a mohawk, unlike his normal self. Like [[Small Mario]], in the first ''[[Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3|Wario Land]]'' and in ''[[Virtual Boy Wario Land]]'', he will become this when damaged by an enemy. The treasure hunter can no longer body-slam, and touching another monster means death. Tiny Wario can still throw coins, and pick up certain enemies. However, any type of pot can revert the antihero back into his pudgier self. Wario appeared as Tiny Wario in the North American commercial for ''[[Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3]]''.
'''Tiny Wario''', also known as '''Small Wario''',<ref>{{cite|title=''Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3'' instruction booklet|page=13|date=1994|language=en-us|publisher=Nintendo of America}}</ref><ref>{{cite|title=''Virtual Boy Wario Land'' instruction booklet|page=27|date=1995|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us}}</ref> is one of [[Wario]]'s many transformations in the [[Wario Land (series)|''Wario Land'' series]]. When small, he does not wear a hat and is either bald or has a mohawk, unlike his normal self.


In ''[[Wario Land II]]'', Wario could not be defeated by any enemy. Instead, some of the foes triggered transformations. Tiny Wario was among these alterations. The status effect can only be caused by a [[Wizard]]. With a shake of its wand, the Wizard turns Wario tiny. In this state, Wario cannot attack any enemies, but he is able to leap higher, and go through small holes. The physical condition could be reversed if Wario falls into water or gets hit by an enemy. Also, the ''Wario Land II'' transformation is similar to the eventual [[Mini Mario (form)|Mini Mario]] form introduced in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]''
==History==
===''Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins''===
This transformation is first seen in ''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]'' after [[Mario]] defeats [[Fire Mario|Fire Wario]]. In this form, Wario simply flees from the castle. Unlike later games, he is fully bald.


In ''[[WarioWare: Smooth Moves]]'', Wario receives a small, pink motorbike from [[Penny]] that shrinks him and separates him into multiple Tiny Warios. Excluding microgame sets, it is the penultimate stage of the game, with [[Orbulon]]'s stage being the last.

====''Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3'' / ''Virtual Boy Wario Land''====
Like [[Small Mario]], in ''[[Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3]]'' and in ''[[Virtual Boy Wario Land]]'', Wario becomes this when damaged by an enemy. He can no longer body-slam, and taking damage in this state results in losing a life. Small Wario can still throw coins, and pick up enemies as normal. However, any type of pot can revert him back into his pudgier self. Wario appeared as Small Wario in the North American commercial for ''Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3''.


In ''[[Wario Land: Shake It!]]'', a form of Wario called '''Mini Wario''' appears, but unlike Tiny Wario, it is just a smaller version of normal Wario with no physical changes whatsoever. This form is gained by going through a [[Mini-Barrel]]'s large opening, and it can be reversed by entering the smaller side.
====''Wario Land II''====
In ''[[Wario Land II]]'', Wario is transformed into Tiny Wario when hit by a [[Wizard]]'s magic. In this state, Wario cannot attack any enemies, but he is able to leap higher and go through small holes. The physical condition is reversed if Wario falls into water or gets hit by an enemy.

====''WarioWare: Smooth Moves''====
In ''[[WarioWare: Smooth Moves]]'', Wario receives a small, pink motorbike from [[Penny]] that shrinks him and separates him into multiple Tiny Warios that raid a strawberry farm, setting up for the level Forever Form Baton. Excluding microgame sets, it is the penultimate stage of the game, with [[Orbulon]]'s stage being the last. In this game, Tiny Wario has a yellow singlet and blue shoes and yellow gloves. After the player completes Forever Form Baton, Wario reverts back to his regular form by absorbing his clones.

Tiny Wario, also known as Small Wario,[1][2] is one of Wario's many transformations in the Wario Land series. When small, he does not wear a hat and is either bald or has a mohawk, unlike his normal self.

History[edit]

Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins[edit]

This transformation is first seen in Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins after Mario defeats Fire Wario. In this form, Wario simply flees from the castle. Unlike later games, he is fully bald.

Wario Land series[edit]

Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3 / Virtual Boy Wario Land[edit]

Like Small Mario, in Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3 and in Virtual Boy Wario Land, Wario becomes this when damaged by an enemy. He can no longer body-slam, and taking damage in this state results in losing a life. Small Wario can still throw coins, and pick up enemies as normal. However, any type of pot can revert him back into his pudgier self. Wario appeared as Small Wario in the North American commercial for Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3.

Wario Land II[edit]

In Wario Land II, Wario is transformed into Tiny Wario when hit by a Wizard's magic. In this state, Wario cannot attack any enemies, but he is able to leap higher and go through small holes. The physical condition is reversed if Wario falls into water or gets hit by an enemy.

Wario Land: Shake It![edit]

In Wario Land: Shake It!, a form of Wario called Mini Wario appears, but unlike Tiny Wario, it is just a smaller version of normal Wario with no physical changes whatsoever. This form is gained by going through a shrinkbarrel's large opening, and it can be reversed by entering the smaller side.

WarioWare series[edit]

WarioWare: Touched![edit]

While Tiny Wario does not directly appear in WarioWare: Touched!, the pose Wario-Man makes in the Game Over screen resembles that of Tiny Wario's art from Virtual Boy Wario Land.

WarioWare: Smooth Moves[edit]

In WarioWare: Smooth Moves, Wario receives a small, pink motorbike from Penny that shrinks him and separates him into multiple Tiny Warios that raid a strawberry farm, setting up for the level Forever Form Baton. Excluding microgame sets, it is the penultimate stage of the game, with Orbulon's stage being the last. In this game, Tiny Wario has a yellow singlet and blue shoes and yellow gloves. After the player completes Forever Form Baton, Wario reverts back to his regular form by absorbing his clones.

Game & Wario[edit]

In Game & Wario, robotic MechaWario minions resembling Tiny Wario are the main enemies in the minigame "Arrow".

WarioWare Gold[edit]

In WarioWare Gold, multiple Tiny Warios appear in the boss microgame Balloon Brigade in Wario's Touch League stage. They are also pictured on balloons in Wario Interrupts as a distraction Wario Deluxe has for the player to eliminate.

Other appearances[edit]

Rhythm Heaven Megamix[edit]

Rhythm Heaven Wiki article: Tiny Wario

Tiny Warios (in their Smooth Moves design) make an appearance in the Wario... Where? challenge set of Rhythm Heaven Megamix. The set's version of Freeze Frame features Tiny Warios as the racers Dr. Crygor must take photos of, replacing the regular race cars from the original version.
