Evil Woody
- “Bwaha! Just for bothering me, I'm going to drop a nasty surprise on everyone!”
- —Evil Woody, Mario Party 6
Evil Woody[1] is an evil tree who first appears in Mario Party 3 in Woody Woods. Contrasting his good counterpart Woody's perpetually happy expression and kind-hearted attitude, Evil Woody has a perpetually angry expression and a hostile attitude. Evil Woody's color palette is also an inversion of Woody's color palette. If a player lands on one of the three ? Spaces surrounding him, he will award them a Minus Coin Fruit (resulting in a loss of 5 coins) or a Reverse Block Fruit allowing the player to roll again, but go in reverse.
Evil Woody appears in Mario Party 6 on the board Towering Treetop. He appears at night to replace Woody at the top of the board. Whenever a character lands on one of Evil Woody's Event Spaces, instead of him giving coins like Woody does, Evil Woody will instead take away coins by dropping Spinies on every character.
Evil Woody reappears in the returning board Woody Woods in Mario Party Superstars, where he has been reverted back to his Mario Party 3 design. In addition to reprising his role from Mario Party 3, he also appears at the end of a game to drop large purple fruit onto the losing players in order from last to second.

Trivia
- The structure of Evil Woody's Japanese name is intentionally like that of Wario and Waluigi, being a portmanteau of the Japanese word warui (悪い), meaning "bad," and the name of their good counterpart.
- Internal game files for the English Mario Party Superstars show him being referred to as "tree bad" by the developers, which is the literal translation of his Japanese name.
