Boshi

With his unique angular shades, spiked collar and ripped toeless boots, Boshi is unlike any other Yoshi, and he’s got the attitude to go with it. He’s the king of the Yoshi races on the isle! …Or, at least he was the king before Mario and the crew pulled up. He still claims himself to be king, and even says he ran all the way from Yo’ster Isle to the Doubletree, just to get 1-up on the host. Guess he went back on his promise to play fair…

Furret

Although the species first appeared in the Johto region, this Furret has been walking around the Unova region’s Accumula Town for some time. Researchers have studied this Furret for years, but nobody quite knows where it’s going or if it just walks for the love of doing it. Will we ever know? Who’s to say. Such is the way of the Furret…

Piranha Plant

This plant certainly has been busy, huh? Starting off merely as a part of Bowser’s enormous ensemble of minions, Piranha Plant has ingrained itself as a reoccurring playable member of the cast of many Mario spin-off games in recent years, even reaching the ultimate height of being invited to Smash! Something King for a Day veterans Geno and Waluigi couldn’t even achieve…

Tbh Creature

Exhibiting a pure neutral expression, this creature goes by many aliases such as TBH, Autism Creature and Yippee but it’s most commonly referred to as the Tbh Creature. Not only a year after being uploaded onto the web, Tbh Creature developed a cult following amongst various circles, notably Tumblr calling it “the mascot of autism.” It fluently speaks German and in its free time it enjoys playing Fortnite and drinking Coca-Cola Zero Sugar. YIPPEE!!!

Goodstyle

Count Cannoli’s mild mannered moustachioed magic wand, and his right-hand man! (Or uh- left, depends which way he’s holding him) Goodstyle is a true asset to whoever weilds him. He’s turned paupers into princesses, zeroes into heroes, and even turned Wario into the Purple Wind! All with the refined elegance and grace as a respected Cannoli Clan is expected to have! …Which makes it all the more insulting when he’s used as a whacking stick on those two dunces when they mess up! He’s gotten used to it though, nowadays.

Shy Guy

Wearing a cloak and mask with only eye and mouth holes shrouded in darkness underneath, Shy Guys are covered from head to toe because, well, they’re quite shy. They come in a variety of different colors and forms like the Fly Guy and their distant relatives, the Snifit. During Shy Guy’s trophy celebration in Mario Power Tennis, as he is walking up the podium to collect his well-earned trophy, he trips and his mask falls off! …However, Luigi is the only one who got to witness what’s truly behind Shy Guy’s mask. What could he possibly have seen?

Count Cannoli

A gentleman thief. A master of disguise. The TV Star, The Silver Zephyr! …and always a firm disbeliever in the Wario Partners. Sure, he might’ve invested some of his stolen treasures into the duo’s scheme for the tournament, but he always doubted their abilities, and rightly so! Now he’s got the two running around like errand boys while he records new episodes of his show, to make them somewhat useful when they haven’t finished paying their debts! At least he’s still got his own plans for the studio… He still can’t believe they didn’t get Weird Al’s signature.

Wobbuffet

Wob Wobba Wobbufett! Do not fret! Meowth may no longer be in charge of staff-related matters, but Wobbuffet is still acting as security for the event! It’s been quite the adjustment for this humble Pokémon to remain neutral while also being Meowth’s guest and companion. Rumors have been circulating around the studio that Jesse and James of Team Rocket have been trying to reestablish contact with Meowth now that he’s in the spotlight, but presumably Wobbuffet has been preventing such from happening.

Escargoon

This cowardly but loyal snail is none other than King for a Day veteran King Dedede’s right-hand lackey. He puts up with all of Dedede’s antics, no matter how degrading or insane they are. Despite having no backbone figuratively and literally, Escargoon is able to keep up with Dedede’s abrasive personality through his scathing wit and sarcasm. Being a part of the upper echelon of Cappy Town has its perks as he resides in Dedede’s Castle, as he is also the host of the hit network, Channel DDD.

Plankton

Sheldon J. Plankton is an evil genius first and a restaurateur second. He’s the owner of the Chum Bucket and rival of former King for Another Day contestant, Mr. Krabs. However, despite his cunning intellect and college education, his restaurant lacks both a friendly atmosphere and good tasting food. Not high quality. >:3[ Instead of using his smarts to make his restaurant’s menu better, he puts his energy towards invading the Krusty Krab regularly. Attempting to steal the secret formula for the Krabby Patty, he ultimately always fails. For someone so microscopically small, his ego and arrogance are colossal and holds him back from garnering any success.
