Though [[Bowser]]'s main rivalry is with Mario, he views Luigi as almost as great a threat as his brother in games such as ''Super Mario Galaxy'' and its sequel. At other times, Bowser has trouble even remembering Luigi's name, particularly in the ''Mario & Luigi'' series where he often defaults to calling him "Green 'Stache" (although Bowser finally calls Luigi by his real name at the end of ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team''). Rather than Bowser, Luigi's arch-nemesis is actually [[King Boo]], whom he met and defeated single-handedly in ''Luigi's Mansion'' when the ghost king kidnapped Mario. King Boo would later try to get revenge in ''Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon'' and ''Luigi's Mansion 3'', and the rivalry can be seen in other series as well, such as the ''Mario Baseball'' games, in which Luigi (along with Mario) shares bad chemistry with the Boo king, ''Super Mario 64 DS'', where King Boo (known as Big Boo in the English version) was the one keeping the key locking Luigi away, and the Adventure Tour of ''Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games'', where King Boo selects Luigi to face him in Polatraits due to the latter's fear of ghosts.

Another heated rivalry exists between Luigi and Waluigi, with the two sharing bad chemistry in all the games they appear in together, and acting hostile and rude towards each other, such as Luigi making a gesture at Waluigi to anger him in ''Mario Tennis'', the two scowling at each other in the ''Mario Party 3'' group picture, and Waluigi's vandalism of Luigi's picture in the opening movie of ''Mario Power Tennis''. Waluigi is constantly seen harassing Luigi, whether by humiliating him during the sports competition, following him wherever he goes, or even directly confronting him. The origins of their animosity is unknown, however jealousy may be a factor, as both Luigi and Waluigi have a crush on Princess Daisy, who rejects Waluigi. Luigi himself, while he despises Waluigi, mostly prefers to ignore him and his antics.
