Garlic is the favorite snack of Wario, acting pretty similar to a Mushroom's effects on Mario. In the Wario Land series (specifically Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3 and Virtual Wario Land), it could turn Normal Wario into Bull Wario. Some later games instead went with an extra added effect; eating a bunch of heads of garlic would let you get a stinky breath. the stench could defeat some enemies, but isn't handy to come in contact with other persons. Like normal Mushrooms, Garlics have various variations, which each has a different effect.
Appearances[]
Mario Kart: V² Circuit[]
Appears as an item that has similar effects to the Mushroom, but with an more offensive charge to it that spins out opponents when rammed into them. The Golden Garlic acts as a time based version of this item, allowing for infinite offensive boosts within the time allotted. A triple variant of this item also exists.
Variations[]
Here are the many garlic variations.
Garlic Bottle/Pot[]
In the original two Wario Land games, eating a Garlic Bottle/Pot would turn Small Wario into Normal Wario, and Normal Wario into Bull Wario. Bull Wario has stronger ground pounds, stronger dashes, and can use his horns to stick to the ceiling.
Super Garlic[]
Lets the eater grow twice at height. In races, characters can do it in their engine to get a speed boost. In some games, it gives a reverse speed boost, and can be laid down on the road, like Banana Peels. It also restores health.
1-Up Garlic[]
Gives the eater an extra life.
Mini Garlic[]
Shrinks the player to a mouse's size. This could be handy to escape, or to find hidden places.
Mega Garlic[]
Grows the player to a giant's size, for a short time. When Mega, nobody can stop it, and it can destroy ANYTHING, besides the ground and hard blocks. This item is especially for the destructive one (like Wario).
Golden Garlic[]
In races, a Golden Garlic could give multiple speed boosts, as many as the player wants. However, when used one time, the player must use it multiple times, before it disappears.
Poison Garlic[]
A very deadly sort that could let players die.
Fire Garlic[]
Sets the player on fire.
Trivia[]
- Like Mushroom and Super Mushroom, Garlic and Super Garlic look much the same.
- Wario eats sometimes a Garlic to become Wario-Man.
- Garlic has the same shape as Wario's nose.
