Bio and general Information


series : Yoshi / super Mario

first appearance : Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island

latest appearance : Mario Party DS

kamek is a gifted magikoopa among the highest rank of Bowser's minions. Kamek can perform various feats of magic, such as self-duplication, teleportation, shooting magical blasts and increasing the size of other creatures. Kamek was also the caretaker of Bowser when he was an infant . He is the main antagonist of the yoshi series of games. often trying to alter the past to change the future.

Kamek is the stereotypical right hand man; he does what his master wishes, without question. This means that if Bowser gives an order, no matter how ridiculous or difficult, Kamek will follow it. He is also very evil, formulating diabolical schemes with little thought as to how they will effect innocent people, such as kidnapping the Baby Mario brothers and attempting to destroy his enemies without a second's hesitation and instead a feeling of joy (apparent in his speeches to the Yoshis before setting one of his monsters on them).


Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island

Kamek makes his debut appearance in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island as the main antagonist of the game. Using his crystal ball, Kamek foresees that Mario and Luigi, who were born that night, would cause great havoc for the Koopa Troop and the adult Bowser in the future. Deciding to capture Baby Mario and Baby Luigi before they could become a threat to the Koopa Troop, Kamek attacks the stork delivering the babies. Kamek succeeds in capturing only Baby Luigi during his attack on the stork though, and Baby Mario is sent plummeting to Yoshi's Island below during the scuffle.

Learning he had only captured Baby Luigi, Kamek has his minions, the Toadies, go out in search of Baby Mario. Meanwhile, Mario has been found by the Yoshies, who help him track down and try and rescue his abducted brother. Before a boss is fought by a Yoshi and Baby Mario, Kamek will appear to taunt the Yoshi before using his magic to turn the boss enemy into a giant (except on one occasion).

When Yoshi and Baby Mario reach the entrance to Baby Bowser's Castle, Kamek tries to stop them from entering it by flying into them on his broom while Yoshi tries to fly across a large gap as the Yoshi Helicopter. Later on in the castle, when Yoshi enters Kamek's own chambers, Kamek will attack him directly, teleporting around his room, trying to blast Yoshi with his magic wand, which can turn the blocks scattered throughout his room into enemies and stars, as well as injuring Yoshi.

Once Yoshi passes through his room, Kamek will appear before Yoshi in Baby Bowser's room, and demand he hand over Baby Mario; awakened by Kamek's shouting at Yoshi, the irritated Baby Bowser will knock him aside and crush him before engaging in battle with Yoshi. Once Baby Bowser is defeated by Yoshi, Kamek will appear and, using his powers, turn Baby Bowser into a colossus, destroying his castle in the process. After Baby Bowser's monstrous form is beaten by Yoshi and Baby Bowser is regressed back to normal, Kamek will appear and, grabbing Baby Bowser, will threaten Yoshi before flying off into the night, leaving Yoshi to rescue Baby Luigi and the stork.

Kamek also appears as the main threat of the Extra Level "Kamek's Revenge", which has him trying to smash into Yoshi and Baby Mario while flying around on his broom.


Tetris Attack


In Tetris Attack, Kamek, along with the now adult Bowser, puts a curse on Yoshi's Island, brainwashing the bulk of its inhabitants to serve them. Kamek appears as the penultimate boss, after encountering Hookbill the Koopa and Naval Piranha on Mt. Wickedness, along with his Toadies and right before Bowser.

Yoshi Touch & Go


In Yoshi Touch & Go, a game of debatable canon (as it is a simple retelling of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island's events), Kamek once again attacks the stork and steals away Baby Luigi. What happens next depends on the mode played. In some scenarios, the stork will get Baby Luigi back, and in others, Yoshi must "battle" Kamek's Toadies to get Baby Luigi back. In all modes, Kamek will appear to kidnap Baby Mario if Yoshi is to befall one of his traps. Challenge Mode actually places Yoshi in a race against time as a meter (which can be expanded second-by-second with the destruction of an enemy or collection of any sort of Coin) counts off the moments before an invincible Kamek appears to attack Yoshi and steal Baby Mario.


Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time


At the beginning of Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, a desperate Baby Bowser, after his botched attempt to kidnap Baby Peach before the Shroob attack on Princess Peach's Castle, calls Kamek to pick him up in the Koopa Cruiser.

Rather than pick up the prince directly, Kamek instead sends members of the Koopa Troop, while Kamek himself remains at Baby Bowser's Castle. After Baby Bowser crash lands the Koopa Cruiser into the castle, Kamek desperately begins to search for his charge. Before he finds Baby Bowser, Kamek notices the Mario Brothers and recognizes the babies as those he had once tried to kidnap. Assuming they meant the worst, Kamek magically summons Boos and Goombas to attack the brothers. The quartet quickly defeat the enemies, and in his haste to find Baby Bowser, Kamek is forced to leave, letting the the brothers go undefeated.

Once Kamek finds the Koopa's crown prince, the pair set out to reclaim the Cobalt Star Shard that the brothers had taken from the castle. Kamek and Bowser were able to find the brothers at the Vim Factory, where they took both their Shard and the one Mario and Luigi had taken from Swiggler. The pair proceeds to escape to Yoshi's Island. However, Mario, Luigi, Baby Mario, and Baby Luigi quickly discover their hiding place. On the island, Kamek is reduced to running errands for Baby Bowser, including stealing Yoshi Cookies for him. When the brothers attempt reach the island, the Magikoopa uses his magic powers to deter them throughout their quest to defeat the resting Baby Bowser at the island's cliffs. In a last ditch attempt to stop the Mario Bros., Kamek fights them directly.

In battle, Kamek uses a mixture of the Magikoopa attacks from Paper Mario and Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, which include making multiple copies of himself and shooting fire. After his defeat at the hands of Mario and Luigi, Kamek declines to show his face again in the game, but he does appear in the epilogue after the defeat of the Shroobs, traveling back to Baby Bowser's Castle with Prince Bowser.

Kamek sports an apron while on Yoshi's Island. He uses it to store important items such as his wand and broom and is never shown performing such tasks as cooking or cleaning. Kamek's role as a parental figure was a primary source of comic relief whenever the Magikoopa appeared.


Super Princess Peach


In Super Princess Peach, Kamek reappears as Giant Kamek, working for Bowser once again. After the Mario Bros. and several Toads are kidnapped by the Army Hammer Bro., Kamek is trusted with safeguarding the captured Luigi. During his battle against Princess Peach and Perry in Giddy Sky, Kamek will turn gigantic in size and attack by shooting spells and summoning Magikoopas. After being defeated by Princess Peach and Perry, Kamek relinquishes Luigi.

In Super Princess Peach Kamek's appearance changes again; he now wore cyan robes along with a purple hat and cape. He also showed some level of control over the Gloom Vibe and had a weakness to wind-based attacks.

Interestingly, the glossary of Super Princess Peach refers to Kamek as "A Kamek made huge by magic." Because "Kamek" is the Japanese name of both the Kamek character and the species known as "Magikoopa" in Western localizations, Giant Kamek may actually be a generic Magikoopa and not the genuine Kamek due to translation errors (which would explain the seemingly improper adjective "a" being applied to him). However, because Giant Kamek is clad in robes that are not the same as the Magikoopas he summons, it is still likely that he is the true Kamek due to this form of distinction. The fact that Giant Kamek was guarding Luigi, a hostage of major importance, also supports the theory that he was indeed intended to be accepted as the Kamek character, as naturally Bowser's best wizard would be suitable for the job of guarding Luigi.


Special Moves

Standard Special -

Game: standard in all titles



Magical blasts - Kamek's Standard Attack. Kamek fires a Circle, square and a Triangle. these revolve around themselves. when the button is let go kamek will fire them. they can not be held for longer then five seconds.

Up special :



Broom Stick - kamek flies on her broom stick. the user has free control after the spell has been casted. when the spell ends she will go into fall special

Side special -



shrink : kamek will point his wand straight forward and fire a small blast of invisible energy. If it hits the foe they will be shrunk. It acts like a poison mushroom but for a shorter period of time.

down special

pyrokinesis -

kamek kneels down. and creates fire arround him. the fires then stay alight for a short amount of time. these flames are the flames shown throughout the mario series. kamek creates 3 or 4 of them

Final smash

Kamek grabs the smash ball!

Kamek duplicates himself into 6, each fliying up into a line. They all shoot off fireballs from the top of the screen,
while moving side to side, and combine their last one for a massive magic blast. Lasts 12-22 seconds and then... it's over

Oh, yea. Kamek is the Playstation master with his/her magic. What does it take to be in?

Well...
Kamek could be a really great SE boss, or an history character...

But I really can't imagine him as a playable character (mario series doesn't need more PC)...
Sorry guys, anyway, good luck !

Kamella is SO annoying, I was thinking he could use the spell he uses on the enemies on Yoshi's Island to make them big on himself and then he would be very powerful for a period of time.
Good idea, and it won't be a clone of Giga Bowser to because Kamek does it in his games. Should his attacks be bigger or the same size?
