He is also able to stick to the ceiling with his horns.


Wario can get this power in ''[[Virtual Boy Wario Land]]'' via a Viking helmet, or by getting another garlic bottle once already in his normal form. The power works very differently compared to the ''Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3'' version as it simply changes Wario's Barge to resemble a ground pound. However, this is one of the heaviest forms, making it hard to jump out of quicksand.

Bull Wario[1][2] is a form that allows Wario to destroy blocks from a single Dash Attack. Wario can also ground pound to defeat any enemy or destroy any block directly hit, with the resulting shock wave stunning nearby enemies.

History

Wario Land series

In the Wario Land series, Bull Wario first appears in Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3, where the transformation is a result of obtaining a Bull Pot (or Garlic Pot unless he is small). The form returns in Virtual Boy Wario Land, where it is obtainable via a Viking helmet, or by getting another garlic bottle once already in his normal form.

There are functional differences between Bull Wario in his two appearances, since he can stick to the ceiling with his horns in Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3 but not in Virtual Boy Wario Land, though the latter game gives him a considerable speed boost while barging.

Mario Kart series

In Mario Kart 7 and Mario Kart Tour, artwork of Bull Wario can be seen on a sign in Wario Shipyard.
