'''Whirluigi''' is [[Waluigi]]'s [[Offensive Power Shot]] in ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'' and ''[[Mario Tennis: Power Tour]]''. Waluigi [[jump]]s in the air in his signature Γ shape and spins around, generating a cyclone around him, and hits the ball with it. This causes the ball to greatly curve over the net and knock the opponent back a few feet. It also causes them to spin around crazily, hindering their movement. It also can cause the opponent to lose any [[Power Shot]]s they may have stored. Recovery time is great.

Waluigi's [[Special Shot]] in ''[[Mario Tennis Aces]]'' (called Showtime in the game) is very similar to the Whirluigi technique. The only difference is Waluigi showing off by putting a rose in his mouth (a taunt he started to use in ''[[Mario Party 8]]'').

Whirluigi is Waluigi's Offensive Power Shot in Mario Power Tennis and Mario Tennis: Power Tour. The move begins with Waluigi jumping in the air, with a "Γ" appearing.[1][2] Waluigi spins, forming a cyclone around himself, before hitting the ball in a curve to the receiver. If the ball hits the receiver, they spin out in a cyclone and lose their stored Power Shot, if they have one.

Waluigi's Special Shot from Mario Tennis Aces, titled Showtime, is very similar to Whirluigi, except it begins with a taunt of Waluigi putting a rose in his mouth.
