Wario made a big appearance in the SubSpace Emissary. First he turned either Peach or Zelda (depending on how you played the previous level) into a trophy then put her in his hovercar and zoomed off with them. Next he turned Ness into a trophy. It was Lucas he was aiming at but Ness knocked him out of the way and took the shot. Then he turned Luigi into a trophy but when he put Luigi in his hovercar and tried to set off, King Dedede knocked him out of the hovercar and flew a way in Wario' hovercar. Wario's next appearance was when he himself was turned into a trophy by Lucas and Pokemon Trainer in a brawl for revenge on Ness. When Lucas and the Pokemon Trainer defeated Galleom, Galleom set off a SubSpace Bomb sucking Wario into SubSpace. Wario didn't appear again until King Dedede, Luigi and Ness revived him in SubSpace since thay needed all the help they could get to defeat Tabuu. You could thaen play as Wario and use him for good, not evil in the&nbsp;last level, The Great Maze.
