DanceDream: I was thinking of the one he uses in City Escape... They look prettymuch the same though. On that subject, Mario and Luigi can snowboard, ski, and ice skate without actually having the proper equipment. Amy's weird. Yeah, I prefer Modern to Classic, as well. The Tails Doll is not scary. Also, I forgot to make it clear last chapter (it's been edited now), the Tails that met the Tails Doll is Classic Tails. She gets better as time goes on... She's still obsessed with Sonic, though. Have you seen her in Sonic Battle? She's insane in that game. I'm pretty sure my winter break is only one week... Sort of. I'm stretching my schoolwork over two weeks. The Mario series as a whole has over 1300 characters, and I haven't even gotten into the confusing timeline of the Kongs. The original Donkey Kong is Cranky Kong (Hence why I never called him DK); whose son is Donkey Kong Junior, DK's father, who was a young child in the original arcade games. The current DK is the same age as Mario. Trying to apply a timeline to Mario is hard.

Adventures of Mario & Sonic: Generations

Villains in the Limelight

"My older self is a love-struck idiot," King Koopa complained to Dr. Robotnik, "Seriously, lava in a metal building? I don't care if 'the chicks dig the lava!', it's downright stupid! I should make sure I never grow to be like him."

"I'm not completely sure that will work."

"You can help me, right? I don't think you're too happy about your older self, either."

"He's not that-"

The intercom interrupted Robotnik, and Eggman's voice resounded through their base of operations, "Today is cake day in the cafeteria. It's in the shape of Sonic's face, so you can feel satisfied when you stab it with your fork!"

"Okay, maybe he is. Maybe I should finish getting my teaching degree."

"Wouldn't that be boring?"

"I could force Sonic to enroll, and then I could tell him what to do! And that little fox-thing, too. It's always following Sonic around, and it flew his plane!"

"I'm pretty sure that fox is a boy."

"And I'm pretty sure the fox is a clever robot. Therefore, 'it'."

"You know that's offensive, right?"

"Who cares? He's my enemy!"

"Rule #47: Always be nicer to the sidekick."

"There are rules?"

"Duh. Need an example?"

"Fine. Start with Number 1."

"Rule #1: DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES THREATEN TO HARM THE SIDEKICK IN THE PRESENCE OF THE HERO."

"Why did you shout?"

"It's written in all caps in the handbook," Koopa explained, showing the Villains vs Comical Superheroes: Villain Handbook to Robotnik.

"Really?" Robotnik asked, taking the book, "Well, I might as well give it a read. Maybe I can figure out how to beat Sonic."

"Or open a school of evil. They have instructions for that."

"Brilliant!"

"Waluigi is the best, Waluigi beats the rest! Waluigi's dancing time, Waluigi knows to rhyme! Waluigi kicks a turtle, Waluigi thinks that hurt-le! Waluigi creeps you out, Waluigi makes you pout! Waluigi cheats a lot, Waluigi likes eggplant hot! Waluigi sings this song, Waluigi bangs a gong!"

...Yeah, let's just ignore him.

"WALUIGI DOESN'T LIKE YOU!" Waluigi shouted, yanking the magic wand out of... its hiding place. Where did he get that anyway?

"WALUIGI CHEATS!" Waluigi shouted, waving the wand.

"Humph." Shadow said, as he stood around waiting to fight Sonic, "He said that hedgehog would be here soon."

Shadow waited for a few seconds... "I wish Omega was here. It never gets boring when he shouts 'annihilate' at anything that annoys him."

Shadow waited a few more seconds... "If anyone listening thinks I'm going to start whining about Rouge not being here, I'm not."

After a short pause, "I'm bored. Even Rouge's senseless flirting with every male in sight is better than this."

... "I need to stop talking to myself when no one's here."

"My master plan comes along as nicely as an uninterrupt-"

"Why, back in my day, we didn't use any time travel plots just to please the fanbase. Oh no, we just threw an excuse plot together, and, darn it, we liked it! None of these silly 3D quests! None of the ridiculous overpopulation of characters! Why-"

"Cranky," Dixie said impatiently, "Where are DK and Diddy?"

"Your boyfriend is stuck in the past with his lazy good-for-nothing uncle. Now, as I was saying, we didn't need a stupid collet-a-thon, no dynamic heads-up-display, no stinking eye color, no voice acting, no random age-ups..."

Dixie, Tiny, Chunky, and Kiddy walked out of Cranky's lab while he was still talking.

"I still don't understand a word he says," Tiny said.

"Chunky no understand either."

"Well, I think I understood the random age-ups part," Dixie said, gesturing to Tiny.

"I told you, it was an accident."

"But we still need to get back to the past. Any ideas who could help?" Dixie asked, looking at her sister and cousins.

"Ogalaho!"

"Lanky!" Chunky shouted, pointing at the clownish orangutan, "Chunky happy see Lanky friend. Lanky friend save Chunky."

"You're welcome for the sixty-seventh time. Now, we need to travel through time?" Lanky asked, "Follow me. I know someone who can help. His name is E. Gadd."

This is a random chapter to look at the villains. Also to focus on the humor aspect. And a little bit of the Kongs, too. If you don't know what the Kongs look like, look them up, please. Yeah, I totally made up that handbook. Sort of. For fun!

Note that most characters introduced will have a minor role.
