- “Yikes! Brawl Doll is waiting inside the Goal! It's floating in the air, so it'll be hard to punch... You should do a Corkscrew Conk by pressing the A Button during a Dash Attack!”
- —Spriteling, Wario World
Brawl Doll is a cherub-like doll that Wario fights in Horror Manor in Wario World. When Wario first encounters Brawl Doll, deep in the basement of the mansion, it is facing away from Wario. It then opens its eyes and eerily spins its head around to face Wario. Its arena is a large circular platform with three torches near the edges, along with colored patches on the ground, resembling a playpen. This is the only time in the game that columns are shown with fire in them.
Brawl Doll has three varying attacks. The most basic attack is a swipe of its angel-like wings: first left, then right. This attack becomes faster for each health skull icon that it has lost. Brawl Doll uses its second attack after it has received damage. It flies to the edge of the arena and fires lasers at Wario, similar to the blue Crystal Entity's attack. As Brawl Doll takes more damage, it fires a trio of lasers that move in more erratic patterns. Brawl Doll begins to use its final attack when it has two health skulls left; it starts sliding across the floor at a very fast speed at Wario while drawing in red energy. This is its most powerful attack. If Brawl Doll is stunned during this attack, it will drop a ring of coins.
Wario must knock the doll out of the sky with either a Corkscrew Conk or one of the nearby columns. After Brawl Doll is stunned, Wario can pick it up and use a Mad Move on it. After five Mad Moves, Brawl Doll goes down.
