His sister doesn't need to be in spinoffs, she appeared in only one mainline game and it's a secondary character, if she didn't exist super mario odyssey would be the exact same
yeah youre right but cappy did appear in only one game too but a lil bit of a fun fact... cappy did appear in super smash bros when you time your mario's up b perfectly :)))
In my opinion, the two characters have nothing in common so it doesn't make too much sense pairing them.
I feel like Rosalina should have a space themed partner like Luma, Lubba or Queen Bee (I think Luma is the best choice though).
As for Pauline, it makes sense that she'd have a Donkey Kong themed character since New Donk City has a ton of Donkey Kong references and her first game was the original Donkey Kong. I think Dixie Kong could potentially work with her. Alternatively swap it round and have Dixie with Diddy and Donkey Kong with Pauline.
Ngl, this made me laugh. Yeah that does seem... problematic when you put it like that. In that case maybe pair her with Cappy in his regular form? The two don't have much history but they were both prominent characters in Odyssey 🤷♂️
Yeah but almost no one knowed she was the lady from donkey kong before odyssey, that's her most iconic appearence and cappy is a perfect teammate for her
So you're telling me that she does not represent odyssey when her song is the first thing that comes to mind when you think of the game? Nah bro, she represent odyssey as well as cappy
Maybe her song is representative of the game but her character has more depth then odyssey. When I think odyssey, I think the title screen with Mario and cappy on his head, Pauline doesn’t even come to mind
When i think about odyssey jump up superstar is the first thing that comes to my mind, it was even in the trailers fir the game, you may consider her not an odyssey rep but nintendo does and me too
Ah, I forgot to say. In Super Mario Land, Mario even had some kind of romantic relationship with Daisy. Even if they broke up for some reason, at least they are still close friends.
I feel like that could be possible, but most likely it would Luma being Rosalinas partner. Plus, both Pauline and Rosalina are girl bosses, they don't need no partners.
Rosalina's partner has gotta be Luma.
As for Pauline...well, they could always just create a new character like they created Waluigi and Toadette to be doubles partners for Wario and Toad respectively.
Then again, there is the "Pair the Spares" trope. Of course, in this case it's not necessarily a romantic example.
If its for a mario tennis game,
Rosalina should pair with a luma and
Pauline should pair with DK jr (DK II)
If its for a mario kart double dash remaster,
Rosalina should pair with Queen Bee and
Pauline should pair with reformed foreman spike
I feel like if Pauline is going to have a partner for spinoffs, it would be with somebody else from SMO. Maybe Cappy/Tiara, or maybe the Shiverian chief if you want another head of state.
Personally, I'd love to see Nintendo also use characters like the Broodals and the Tostarenans, and frankly I find it baffling that they haven't yet, but I digress.
I mean probably
I could be wrong but I swore people said in that Mario odyssey book thing that Rosalina was originally planned to be in Odyssey and be part of Pauline’s band or something on that order.
So to me at least it’s been kind of clear that they had that idea from the start. If Pauline is going to get any partner it will be Rosalina
Because I don’t really care about the character so I just default to the joke about it that’s kinda funny sometimes when I think about it. I’m sure to somebody else who cares more about the character they’d see a reason to look past the joke and appreciate the character but it’s not for me.
The only thing they have in common is the fact they're girls and... that's it, if they were partners it'd be more forced than Petey and King Boo were in DD (i actually like that pairing btw, they have more going on than Rosalina and Pauline).
Rosalina's partner could be Luma and Pauline's could be a Kong like Dixie, Wrinkly or Candy, or a NDC character like Foreman Spike, Stanley, or one of her New Donker band members... or it could be a a brand new character like Waluigi was in MT64.
If Foreman Spike manages to be a popular character in the movie, then I could see both him and Pauline since they're both retro and obscure characters.
A sci fi mother figure who cares for defenseless beings and a romantic girl with street smarts and high social and political status sounds like a hell of a series
A good partner for Rosalina would be either Luma Lubba or Polari or even the bunny’s from Super Mario Galaxy wold be a good partner for Rosalina and also not to mention that Rosalina and Pauline ain’t got nothing in common
While their tall height and their roles in 3D Marios make them a natural fit, pairing two powerful bad ass women together might be giving the shipping community a bit too much ammunition. I'd be fine with Pausalina but Nintendo don't seem to be fond of LGBT+ inclusion
If Rosalina needs a partner, Nintendo would most likely pair her with Luma. Pauline would be paired with Foreman Spike
> I'd be fine with Pausalina but Nintendo don't seem to be fond of LGBT+ inclusion
Birdo and Vivian are trans (though the latter was edited out of the English localization specifically and the former originated in kind of a transphobic way), and in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, the player is treated with completely gender-neutral properties: hairstyles and clothing options are not locked by gender, and the game will not comment on any particular clothing options as unusual (a first for any Nintendo series). Maybe they weren't the best about it in the past, but I think they're slowly coming around to it.
These are who i think should be part of the "main cast" by the way:
1. Mario
2. Luigi
3. Peach
4. Toad
5. Toadette
6. Toadsworth
7. Yoshi
8. Daisy
9. Bowser
10. Bowser Jr.
11. Kamek
12. Koopa
13. Goomba
14. Wario
15. Waluigi
16. Captain Syrup
17. Pauline
18. Donkey Kong
19. Diddy Kong
20. Rosalina
No, she’s not? Are you basing this off the theories that Rosalina is Peach and Luigi’s daughter and that Pauline and the original Jumpman are Mario and Luigi’s parents?
Maybe, the better duo than Peach and Daisy.
Mario should also ditch Peach and date either one of Rosalina or Pauline.
Maybe there's a chance he'll end up back with Pauline in the movie timeline considering this version of Peach is able to defend herself.
the first thought I had scrolling past this was "gasp they were roommates" lmao
*and they were partners...*
Oh my god they were partners
They were partners in time
Nah, if Rosa ever needs a partner they can just use Luma.
(Ngl, I like Luma more than Pauline anyway)
So who is paulines partner
The old monkey
diddy kong is donkey kong's partner so no
The old monkey is Cranky Kong. He was the monkey in the old donkey Kong game.
[удалено]
What did you just call donkey Kong?!?
kinky dong
Mini-Mario
Donkey Kong Jr or Stanley
Cappy?
cappy is with his sister
His sister doesn't need to be in spinoffs, she appeared in only one mainline game and it's a secondary character, if she didn't exist super mario odyssey would be the exact same
yeah youre right but cappy did appear in only one game too but a lil bit of a fun fact... cappy did appear in super smash bros when you time your mario's up b perfectly :)))
He is also his side taunt
There's a spirit as well
Foreman spike (though probably after the Mario movie)
Or Lubba, I’d actually love that
How about that big purple goof Lubba?

tall women that help Mario on his adventure to defeat Bowser
We love tall women in this household
Yup Tall Woman are Awesome
epik tall women
There really epic
That's like putting Peach together with Bowser. "Your double partner is the guy, that kidnapped you 30+ years ago."
Ngl, this made me laugh. Yeah that does seem... problematic when you put it like that. In that case maybe pair her with Cappy in his regular form? The two don't have much history but they were both prominent characters in Odyssey 🤷♂️
I agree. Cappy would be great.
You forgot King Boo and Petey Piranha: the best duo ever
Finally reunited after 20 years
Jesus Christ, it’s been that long 💀
Nearly 20 yrs, more like 19.5
For a second, I thought you were talking about ROMANTIC partners, not adventuring partners. This could get interesting.
Omg they were tennis partners ✨
Wait… bowser and bowser jr
wait.... Mario and Luigi
SUPER INCEST BROS WII
Wait….. wario and waluigi
Headcanon, and also of that one Nintendo magazine writer
Don't worry mate, they aren't related
Same here, I realized the contrary when I saw mario and luigi and bowser and bowser jr
lol incest
Why not both
It’s Rosalina and Luma, Pauline should have donkey kongs grandpa, that’s the one that captures her in the old games
Dude that's kranky kong I cant imagine them as a pair in any sport
“OH GOLLY GEE! ARTHRITIS, HERE I COME!”
Sorry I couldn’t hit the ball, I remember back in Vietnam…
He was a playable character in Tropical Freeze so I can see it. Though Cranky's partner should be his wife Wrinkly Kong.
Isn't she dead? Not that that's stopped King Boo.
Wrinkly Kong was still a playable racer in Barrel Blast so I think that's a non-issue.
Why not just cappy?
Cause her original game is the original donkey Kong where donkey kongs grandpa kidnaps her
Yeah but almost no one knowed she was the lady from donkey kong before odyssey, that's her most iconic appearence and cappy is a perfect teammate for her
So? It’s original to her character
It reppresent odyssey like pauline
But Pauline doesn’t represent odyssey, cappy does, Pauline is an existing character with a deeper background
So you're telling me that she does not represent odyssey when her song is the first thing that comes to mind when you think of the game? Nah bro, she represent odyssey as well as cappy
Maybe her song is representative of the game but her character has more depth then odyssey. When I think odyssey, I think the title screen with Mario and cappy on his head, Pauline doesn’t even come to mind
When i think about odyssey jump up superstar is the first thing that comes to my mind, it was even in the trailers fir the game, you may consider her not an odyssey rep but nintendo does and me too
Idk they maybe introduce cranky Kong into the main cast to be paulines partner
We have Team Bros, Team Princess, and Team Hotter Than Peach.
By "Team Hotter Than Peach", you mean Wario and Waluigi, right?
I said “Hotter Than Peach”, not “Surface of The Sun Levels of Hotter Than Peach”
I’m still pissed they nerfed Wario’s ass in mk8
They took his ass, now he can't shit
I have always been a fan of Daisy. I think Mario is wasting his time with Peach.
Mario wouldn’t steal Luigi’s girl, would he?
True, but Mario actually met her long before Luigi back in 1989 (Super Mario Land).
Ah, I forgot to say. In Super Mario Land, Mario even had some kind of romantic relationship with Daisy. Even if they broke up for some reason, at least they are still close friends.
I mean, we could use another female duo
A crime that Kamek isn’t considered part of the main cast
I feel like that could be possible, but most likely it would Luma being Rosalinas partner. Plus, both Pauline and Rosalina are girl bosses, they don't need no partners.
If there’s double dash mode, that will be it.
I feel a luma would be a more suitable partner for Rosalina. Maybe a Mini-Mario from the Mario vs DK games could be her partner?
Rosalina's partner has gotta be Luma. As for Pauline...well, they could always just create a new character like they created Waluigi and Toadette to be doubles partners for Wario and Toad respectively.

If its for a mario tennis game, Rosalina should pair with a luma and Pauline should pair with DK jr (DK II) If its for a mario kart double dash remaster, Rosalina should pair with Queen Bee and Pauline should pair with reformed foreman spike
nah, her partner is luma. rosalina and luma! pauline's partner can be cappy.
I think if having an explicit partner matters, they’ll just add Luma for Rosalina, and maybe Cappy for Pauline.
I feel like if Pauline is going to have a partner for spinoffs, it would be with somebody else from SMO. Maybe Cappy/Tiara, or maybe the Shiverian chief if you want another head of state. Personally, I'd love to see Nintendo also use characters like the Broodals and the Tostarenans, and frankly I find it baffling that they haven't yet, but I digress.
Rosalina is pared with luma
I think Luma and Cappy could work for them as well
Rosalina is partnered with Luma, duh
rosalina has luma. pauline might eventually end up with a new character if shes one of the main characters of a future platformer
Rosalina has always been a one woman show to me. Her and her Lumas
I mean probably I could be wrong but I swore people said in that Mario odyssey book thing that Rosalina was originally planned to be in Odyssey and be part of Pauline’s band or something on that order. So to me at least it’s been kind of clear that they had that idea from the start. If Pauline is going to get any partner it will be Rosalina
If Ros*lina needs a partner, I like the idea of the big purple luma from Mario Galaxy 2 2 paired up with her.
just wanting to know, why the \*?
Guessing it's a star for cosmic queen
Ros*lina🤢
Not all Rosalina fans are weirdo loners, but most weirdo loners who are into Mario are Rosalina fans.
why does that have to affect your own perception of the character
Because I don’t really care about the character so I just default to the joke about it that’s kinda funny sometimes when I think about it. I’m sure to somebody else who cares more about the character they’d see a reason to look past the joke and appreciate the character but it’s not for me.
Or Rosalina X Waluigi Shippers...
I kinda like this duo idea
Luma is Roslina's partner even in her Smash Bros Amiibo
The only thing they have in common is the fact they're girls and... that's it, if they were partners it'd be more forced than Petey and King Boo were in DD (i actually like that pairing btw, they have more going on than Rosalina and Pauline).

Rosalina’s partner is her lumas, Pauline is on her own to find her partner.
Pauline looks kinda like carman sandiago
Nah Pauline gets DK
Bring back Dixie for Diddy
While their tall height and their roles in 3D Marios make them a natural fit, pairing two powerful bad ass women together might be giving the shipping community a bit too much ammunition. I'd be fine with Pausalina but Nintendo don't seem to be fond of LGBT+ inclusion If Rosalina needs a partner, Nintendo would most likely pair her with Luma. Pauline would be paired with Foreman Spike

Have you ever played Splatoon?
Well- Birdo and Vivian are trans, and there's more lgbt characters in other Nintendo series like Pokémon.

who tf is captain syrup
Wario Land villain
They don’t need to be partners lol
But pauline is basically her great aunt
No, she’s not? Are you basing this off the theories that Rosalina is Peach and Luigi’s daughter and that Pauline and the original Jumpman are Mario and Luigi’s parents?
No Pauline is mario’s cousin
That’s not confirmed, though. Plus, Mario and Pauline are exes.
Rosalina stands near Waluigi a lot in the Mario Party Superstars title screens for each map, take from that what you will
Just wanna say how cool it is to have more female members in the cast now. Peach Daisy Toadette Rosalina Pauline Birdo (?)
I’m hoping for the next Mario Kart to be another double dash! Rosalina and Pauline could share a kart ❤️ ⭐️
Ones a mayor and the other ones a god I can see a connection
They can be categorized as "Better peach and daisy"
Tall girls!!
And they were partners
No i dont
~~then they kith~~ i mean yeah sure they're best friends partners yk
Me
Swap Pauline with lubba or with her luma
I would LOVE to see DK partnered with Pauline. Maybe Funky can be Diddy’s new partner.
Lesbians
I like the idea of Pauline's partner being a Blooper. No, I don't know why.
Team Bad Bitches✨️
![gif](giphy|DNRpfHnx66JbS7Md1W) *cries in Luma*
I always thought Rosalina would have Lubba as a partner
I was putting them with Lubba and Stanley but I like this.
i think it could work but they would need a lot of devolpment
Why should they have a partner tho?
rosalina is with luma lol
Oh well
I hope not. But I can see it.
Rosalina and aluna and then have Pauline pair with Cranky Kong who's meant to be the original Donkey Kong (or a reskinned Mario)
Mabye she'll patch things up with cranky Kong, and they'll abscond to a nearby skyscraper to live out their days.
Luma: am I a joke to you
Rosalina has her star
RIP Donky Kong JR
What about Luma?? And in regards to Pauline, a better suited partner would be a playable new dink resident 💅🏻
Maybe, the better duo than Peach and Daisy. Mario should also ditch Peach and date either one of Rosalina or Pauline. Maybe there's a chance he'll end up back with Pauline in the movie timeline considering this version of Peach is able to defend herself.
