Clowns[1] appear in Wario World as enemies wearing a stereotypical clown outfit and party hats; the small ones are yellow, while the big ones are red with buttons on their outfit. Clowns are encountered in Wonky Circus only. They are functionally identical to Magons, come in two size variants like them and use the same attacks, although Clowns have a tail spin attack that deals one full heart of damage to Wario that Magons before the Wonky Circus do not have. All Magon variants from the Wonky Circus on can use this tail spin attack. Clowns also attack slightly faster than the Zombie Magons in Horror Manor do.
