History[edit]

Mario & Wario[edit]

Wanda guiding a blinded Mario through a stage of Mario & Wario

In the game Mario & Wario, the player controls Wanda using the Super Famicom Mouse, providing a safe pathway for the aimlessly-wandering Princess Peach, Mario, and Yoshi, who have had buckets and other objects dropped on their heads by Wario and were all separated from Luigi. Her role is to create safer pathways by utilizing her magic wand to alter the surroundings of the environments and obstacles that were in the way of the blinded heroes. If she does not clear the obstacles in front of the blinded characters, the level would not be able to be completed as the blinded characters would not be able to reach their target destination. During the bonus minigames after every ten courses, she uses a hammer to hit Wario's plane for coins. In the ending, Wanda is seen presenting the "THANK YOU" message on the screen as the heroes defeat Wario and celebrate her success.

Super Mario (Kodansha manga)[edit]

Wanda blowing up the Peaceful Woods at the beginning of Super Mario: Wario no Mori.

Wanda appears in the KC Deluxe manga adaptations of Mario & Wario and Wario's Woods, replacing the Sprite in the latter.

In the first story arc, she helps Mario, Peach, and Yoshi in saving Luigi from Wario's clutches by filling the pits with blocks and saving the heroes from fatal falls.

In the Wario's Woods story arc, she is shown to be a potion maker, hoping to one day create a potion that makes her as big as a human. However, every single potion she makes always explodes. With her explosive concoctions (which replace the Bombs), she helps a young Mario in saving a young Peach and Birdo from a young Wario that had just freed Fauster, a demon sealed ages ago by a Toad hero whose helmet was given to Mario by the Fairies.

In the second act, set years later after the first, Wanda is banished from the Fairies' album by the fairy elder due to another explosive potion of hers. This is revealed to be a saving grace, as Fauster is once again freed by Wario and uses the power given to him by having an infant Luigi sacrificed to him to turn all the fairies into stone, except for Wanda. In their journey to defeat Fauster, Wanda and Mario are accompanied by Peach and Birdo. After defeating Goro, the group splits up and Wanda goes with Mario, who gets hypnotized by Mad's mermaid voice. Wanda attempts to free Mario from the trance by creating a potion that would wake him up, but it explodes, freeing him from the mermaid spell. After Fauster completely regains his power and fuses with Luigi into a giant Luigi-esque demon, Wanda attempts to create an exploding potion and finally manages to create the desired growing potion and becomes a giant. Wario, however, re-writes her name on the Fairies' album, and she is instantly petrified. Distraught by the situation, Wanda cries a tear that lands on Mario, making him bigger and leading him to defeat Fuaster, saving the world, the petrified fairies, and Luigi.

In the latter story arc, Wanda is shown to have two unnamed Fairy friends, which always console her when the elder scolds her.

Super Mario-kun[edit]

Wanda in volume 9 of Super Mario-kun

Wanda first appears in volume 9 of the manga series Super Mario-kun, who is seen attempting to help Mario remove a bucket on his head. However, when Bowser approaches to help them, he trips and lands on Wanda, causing the two to become fused together for the rest of the Mario & Wario arc that extends to the next volume. Bowser has control of Wanda's magic and, while still getting used to it, takes advantage of the situation to prank Mario. During the final battle, the fusion spell expires and the two return to normal.

Like in KC Mario, Wanda replaces the sprite in the Wario's Woods arc, between volume 11 and 13. In this issue, Wanda saves herself from Wario's invasion and arrives at Peach's Castle Garden to ask for help, after which Mario, Luigi, Toad, Yoshi, and later Birdo join her.

Wanda role is relatively marginal in both arcs, mostly giving the heroes information about the locations and bosses and using her magic to make blocks appear or pass some bombs.

Super Smash Bros. series[edit]

While Wanda herself does not appear in Super Smash Bros. Melee, the description for the bucket trophy mentions her role in Mario & Wario. Wanda is only seen in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, although as a Novice-class support spirit. The spirit boosts the power of the user's magic-based attacks. The corresponding spirit battle involves battling a tiny Palutena, who is accompanied by Mario, Peach, and Yoshi. The core extracted from Wanda's spirit can be combined with Princess Shokora's core to summon the Sprixie Princesses' spirit, or with Smeargle's core to summon Elline's spirit.

Trivia[edit]

In preview material for the canceled international release, Wanda was nicknamed "Barrio".^[9]^[10]
- Additionally, it states that the reason for the blocks during gameplay is because "Psychic Potential Block Fields" can be sensed by fairies.^[11]^[12]
Wanda was originally created for the earlier, monster-themed versions of Mario vs. Wario. Game Freak requested to keep the character when the game shifted to using Super Mario characters.^[3]

+Wanda appears in the [[Super Mario (Kodansha manga)|KC Deluxe]] manga adaptations of ''Mario & Wario'' and ''Wario's Woods'', replacing the Sprite in the latter.
+In the [[Mario & Wario (manga)|first story arc]], she helps Mario, Peach, and Yoshi in saving Luigi from Wario's clutches by filling the pits with blocks and saving the heroes from fatal falls.

-===''Super Mario-Kun''===
+In the second act, set years later after the first, Wanda is banished from the Fairies' album by the [[Chiyōrō-sama|fairy elder]] due to another explosive potion of hers. This is revealed to be a saving grace, as Fauster is once again freed by Wario and uses the power given to him by having an [[Baby Luigi|infant Luigi]] sacrificed to him to turn all the fairies into stone, except for Wanda. In their journey to defeat Fauster, Wanda and Mario are accompanied by Peach and Birdo.

-Wanda makes a notable appearance in the eleventh volume. The portion that she appears in is based on the story from ''[[Wario's Woods]]''. Additionally, her role mimics that of the [[Sprite]] from that game. In this issue, Wanda arrives to Peach's Castle Garden and searches for help in order to support her as she tries to stop Wario and his plans. Eventually, Wanda finds the heroes Mario, Luigi, [[Toad]], and Yoshi throughout her search and the four agree to help her on her quest to stopping Wario.
+In the latter story arc, Wanda is shown to have two unnamed Fairy friends, which always console her when the elder scolds her.

In this issue, Wanda saves herself from Wario's invasion and arrives at Peach's Castle Garden to ask for help, after which Mario, Luigi, [[Toad]], Yoshi, and later Birdo join her.
-Wanda appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' as a Novice-class support [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]].
