"You stand before the Shake King! Tremble! Tremble!"
-The Shake King (2008)

Literally Who?
The Shake King was the main antagonist and final boss of Wario Land: Shake it before said franchise died back in 2008, He is a tyrannical pirate captain who invades the Shake Dimension and imprisons the residents, Queen Merelda and the Merfles, for possession of their ultimate treasure, the Bottomless Coin Stack, a bag that contains an endless supply of currency. However, one Merfle escapes and makes it to Wario's world to seek help to recover the Shake Dimension from the Shake King's rule, which Wario accepts, only for the Bottomless Coin Stack itself. However, to get inside the Shake King's ship, Wario needs the 5 boss emblems to which he finds and enters to confront the Shake King. After a mighty battle, the Shake King is defeated, causing parts of his lair to explode and putting an end to his reign.

Why I want him for Smash
He doesn't get enough love and is well... underrated and irrelevant, I feel like Shake King has lots of potential if he comes back one day. Also to rep Wario Land due to said series being long time dead and doesn't get representation that much.

Pros and Cons
+Could bring representation for Land games
+Underrated character who has potential

-Way too irrelevant
-Wario Land is pretty much dead

Yes... No... Yes... No... Yes... No...

... Shake King is an important Wario Land villain, yes? Good, but he lacks current appeal, no? Unfortunately, this is true, but that only means he should make a comeback, yes? Excellent! I cannot think of a continuation to this line of questioning. I support!
