Baby Luigi
- “Uh-oh, Baby Weegie time!”
- —Baby Luigi, Mario Kart: Double Dash!!
Baby Luigi debuted in the Yoshi series, kidnapped in every game. He is the infant form of Luigi, similar to Baby Mario. His brother, Baby Mario, along with Yoshi have saved him numerous times. Besides the Yoshi series, Baby Luigi has appeared in several sports spin-off titles. Like his older self, Baby Luigi is voiced by Charles Martinet.
History
Kamek at Bay
He first appears with his twin during the events of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, when he and the stork carrying him were captured and held by the evil Magikoopa, Kamek. After going through the many levels and bosses, Baby Luigi is finally rescued by Baby Mario and Yoshi.
Tap! Tap! Weegie Lifts
In the Nintendo DS game, Yoshi Touch & Go, Baby Luigi was kidnapped again by Kamek's Toadies, thus setting the stage for the game, as Yoshi must fling eggs at the evil Koopas to rescue the poor infant. Also, when playing the Multiplayer mode, the second player's Yoshi will be toting Baby Luigi.
Dual Baby
Baby Luigi is one of the kidnapped babies in Yoshi's Island DS by Bowser and Kamek. After Baby Mario, Baby Peach, Baby Wario, Baby Donkey Kong, and Baby Bowser team up, they all went to save Baby Luigi. After defeating Bowser, Baby Luigi is rescued, and they find out they are Star Children. Later, it is revealed Baby Yoshi was the last child.
Weegie Time
Baby Luigi, along with his brother Baby Mario and the two older Mario Bros., all have starring roles in the Nintendo DS Mario RPG Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time. In battle, his abilities are, for the most part, identical to Baby Mario, as neither has any ability that sets the other apart except speed, power, and HP. The co-existence of the infant and adult Mario Bros. is explained by the fact that they are sent back in time to rescue Princess Peach after a time-travel experiment goes completely awry. After discovering that an evil alien species, the Shroobs, have taken over the Mushroom Kingdom of the past and are holding Peach hostage, the heroic Bro. of past and present must battle the entire extraterrestrial entity, eventually combating their leader, Princess Shroob. In one part of the game, it is seen that Baby Luigi was crying because of the Cobalt Star. Some players guessed that Baby Luigi actually knew that the Elder Princess Shroob was in the Cobalt Star.
Spinoffs
Baby-a-Kartin'
Mario Kart: Double Dash!!
Baby Luigi rides along with Baby Mario in Mario Kart: Double Dash!! in the Goo Goo and Rattle Buggies, their special item being a Chain-Chomp.
- Bio: This is Baby Luigi's debut appearance, and he's out to prove something. He's a great compliment to any driver, thanks to his ability to claim the Chain Chomp!
Mario Kart Wii
Baby Luigi later returns to the Mario Kart series as an unlockable character in Mario Kart Wii. He appears as a lightweight driver. He is unlocked by unlocking 8 Expert Staff Ghost Data in Time Trials, winning 100 WFC Ghost Races, or playing 3,150 races.
Baby at Bat
Along with Baby Mario, Baby Luigi appears in Mario Superstar Baseball. He's along the side of Yoshi in story mode and is one of the eight speed characters. He is very good at stealing bases, fielding, and even going the wall jump to catch a homerun before it is a homerun. He also appears in Mario Super Sluggers.
- Bio: "The younger of the Baby Mario Brothers. After being abducted by Kamek, he was rescued by Yoshi and Baby Mario. If you see him and Luigi in the same game, try to ignore the temporal paradox. Baby Luigi is quick around the bases but he doesn't hit for power. He is, after all, a baby."
Character Description
Physical Description
Baby Luigi is very similar to Baby Mario. Both have black, beady eyes and a large, trademark nose. He also has a thin layer of brown hair always covered by his trademark "L" hat. The only major difference between Baby Mario and Baby Luigi is that Baby Mario wears a red shirt and red hat, while Baby Luigi wears a green shirt and green hat. Also, Baby Luigi's sneakers are green instead of light blue like Baby Mario's.
Personality
Baby Luigi, like his older self, is described as being meek and cowardly (perhaps caused from the trauma of being abducted by Kamek). For the most part he is very friendly too, as he gets along great with the other Babies. His timid nature is also evidenced in the Mario Kart Wii official guide, which states that he used to ride with Baby Daisy until her bold and boisterous personality scared him. Baby Luigi seemed to be the only one who knew that restoring the colbalt star shards would restore the Elder Princess Shroob because he cried at the cobalt star in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time.
Although Baby Luigi is an extreme crybaby, he seems to actually be less cowardly than his older self.
Interactions with other characters
Baby Mario
Baby Mario is Baby Luigi's one and only brother. Baby Mario, with the help of Yoshi, has saved Baby Luigi many times. In Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time, the brothers team up in the beginning of the game to rescue Baby Peach from Baby Bowser. The two have good chemistry in Mario Superstar baseball and its sequel Mario Super Sluggers. Baby Mario was also Baby Luigi's automatic partner in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!.
Baby Daisy
Baby Luigi's only major interaction with Baby Daisy thus far was in Mario Kart Wii. There is a statue of the two holding hands and dancing together on the Daisy Circuit course. The official guide for Mario Kart Wii states that Baby Daisy used to ride with Baby Luigi until he got frightened of her.
Other
Baby Luigi seems to get along well with other babies. Examples of this are that he shares good chemistry with Baby Peach and Baby Donkey Kong in Mario Super Sluggers. Another example is that Baby Wario, and briefly Baby Bowser, teamed up with the other babies to rescue him in Yoshi Island: DS.
Appearances in Other Media
Baby Mario appeared in an episode of The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3, Toddler Terrors of Time Travel. In this episode, King Koopa and Kooky von Koopa attempted to use Kooky's Time Travel Tube to go back in time to Brooklyn and stop the Mario Bros. from getting transported to the Mushroom Kingdom via going through a Warp Pipe disguised as a bathtub they were fixing. The current day Mario Bros. attempt to stop them, by following Koopa and Kooky through time. However, due to a glitch in the Time Travel Tube, everyone on board is turned to babies. Baby Toad however manages to retrieve the Tube after it is fixed and turn himself and the Mario Bros. back to normal. The Mario Bros. and Toad later stop King Koopa's scheme.
