{{main|Waluigi/Characteristics}}
Waluigi usually wears a purple undershirt under black overalls, orange shoes, and a purple cap that covers short, brown hair. He has a large, pink nose, a thin mustache which is straight (horizontal) and pointed up at the edge (forming an "L" much as Wario's forms a "W"), and gray eyes, surrounded by rings that appear to be a result of insomnia. He also has long legs which sometimes work to his advantage in sports. The yellow symbol on his hat and gloves is a vertical mirror image of [[Luigi]]'s "L" which forms a "Γ", just as Wario wears a "W" in contrast to [[Mario]]'s "M". The "Γ" is actually the Greek letter Gamma, which is pronounced similarly to "G" (as in go).

Just like his brother, Waluigi is the extreme form of his rival. While Luigi is tall and skinny, Waluigi is ''very'' tall and ''very'' skinny. Wario routinely puts Waluigi on a [[Wikipedia:Rack (torture device)|rack]] to make him even taller. Many biographies describing him in Mario sports games mention (and poke fun at) his odd facial elements, including his sharp jaw, pointy nose, and flat feet.

Waluigi's clothing also breaks the palette-swap color scheme in place from Mario and Luigi. Mario and Luigi have the same colored pants, with their signature colors being opposites (red and green). With Wario and Waluigi, while the signature colors are still opposites (yellow and purple), their pants are not matching colors. Waluigi was designed to wear dark purple pants, rather than the lighter purple of Wario (in order to not be monochromatic), which breaks from the previous system of color-coding. On a side note, Waluigi has appeared wearing black pants at times.

Waluigi's outfit is sometimes referenced by the Mario Bros. In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', by wearing both the "L" Emblem (Luigi) and the "W" Emblem (Wario) together, Mario will wear a purple undershirt and black overalls. The same can be done in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', by switching Luigi's costume.

====Characteristics====
Waluigi being a rival of Luigi, just as Wario, his brother, is the enemy of Mario, Luigi's brother. Sorry if this is a little confusing. Let's get on to Waluigi's shoes. They are a little less complicating. He has orange shoes that end in points. Like Mario, Luigi, and Wario, he brandishes overalls with two golden buttons on them. His overalls have a dark blue-purple tint to them, and he also wears a long-sleeved purple shirt. His white gloves have an upside down L on them, hinting that he is the opposite of Luigi, who's logo is an L. His hair is a tannish brown color, yet he has a long, pointy black mustache that curves upward. His nose is pink, similar, to Wario's, his ears are pointed, and he always has an evil grin on his face, implying that he is a dangerous player in spinoffs like ''Mario Kart''. And then, like all the other characters with overalls, he has is own specially made, purple hat that has a yellow upside down L over a white circle, similar to his gloves. Waluigi is a lot skinnier and taller than his good enemy, Luigi. So you can imagine how overweight he makes Wario and Mario look.
