Baby Wario is the infant version of Wario. His first appearance is Yoshi's Island DS, along with Baby Mario, Baby Peach, Baby Bowser, and Baby Donkey Kong. Not much is known about this infant, except that he appears to be greedy like his adult version. Baby Wario's special move is "magnetism", in which he pulls out a magnet which attracts coins. His magnet is also capable of raising metallic platforms and moving large, metal boxes.
When Baby Wario was originally kidnapped, the Toadies find his tantrums to be very annoying, so they leave him alone in World 3-5. Some time after that, Yoshi, who has been washed away by a large wave and separated from the Stork and other babies, finds him. Baby Wario assisted Yoshi throughout the rest of World 3, but he gets away from him after World 3-8, joining up with a group Bandits in hope of even more riches. Yoshi and the rest of the babies meet up with Baby Wario one last time in Bowser's Castle, having an argument with Baby Bowser. He helps the Yoshis by defeating Bowser on the back of Purple Yoshi. After the castle is destroyed and the team finds the babies, the Stork adopts Baby Wario and they set residence on a boat a very large Treasure Chest filled with his treasure. However, Baby Bowser falls and lands in the treasure as well, initiating an argument over it.
At the end of the game, it is revealed that Baby Wario is one of the seven Star Children.
