 Dyode in Mario & Luigi: Brothership | |
| Species | Concordian humanoid |
| First appearance | Mario & Luigi: Brothership (2024) |
- “Give me a beat. So I can groove!”
- —Dyode, Mario & Luigi: Brothership
Dyode, also known as the Groovemaster or Groovemaster Dyode by Emmit,[1] is a red adult-like Concordian from Mario & Luigi: Brothership who wears headphones, sunglasses and a disco-themed outfit, along with a speaker on his forehead. His name is a corruption of "diode".
History[edit]
He is first seen on Twistee Island moping on the floor over the absence of hair wax he claims to need to "get funky" which prompts a crowd to lose attention. Fortunately, deep in the woods section of Twistee Island, Mario and Luigi can search for a merchant named Spiralia who can furnish them with an item called MaxGlam Wax required to get Dyode out of his blue funk, should her sidequest be completed. After handing it over to Emmit, a cutscene begins to play depicting Dyode dancing impressively in a disco party setting, much to the amusement of Emmit and the crowd. Mario and Luigi can also play a minigame where they can vibe with him by pressing the 
, 
, 
or 
buttons in a rhythmic manner.[2]
The performer duo later crosses paths with the Mario Bros. again at Twistee Island, disconnected from Bowser’s assault and swarming with Glohm-infected monsters, where Dyode intends to perform his latest work to cheer up the island inhabitants, but is surrounded by enemies. After being rescued by Mario and Luigi, he invites the two to dance with him yet again, allowing the Twisten Sprout to recover and pave the way to the lighthouse again.
The Bros. encounter Dyode once more on Jellyfish Island, having been barred from entering the hall due to the lack of tickets. There, Dyode invites the two to dance along him and Emmit in exchange for the tickets. If the Bros. succeed, he reveals himself as the owner of the Jellyfish Hall before running off, leaving Emmit to gift the Bros. their promised tickets.
When Reclusa's influence over Concordia strengthens, coating the world in Glohm and sealing many of its residents in lonely delusion, Dyode sets out on a cross-island tour in hopes of inspiring more residents, stopping at Twistee Island and Merrygo Island, rallying the Mario Bros. to co-perform, before ending the tour at Jellyfish Island, where he challenges Mario and Luigi to a dance battle. Upon being outshined by the Bros' groove, he has a heartfelt discussion with Emmit on the meaning of being a "Groovemaster", forming a bond strong enough to partially fill the Bonding Can in the meantime.
