Wario Greats

Wario Greats is the name of a Baseball Team led by Wario in Mario Superstar Baseball. Although the team's main name is Wario Greats, it is sometimes called Wario Garlics, Wario Steakheads, or Wario Beasts. When the Sub-Captain, Waluigi, heads the team, it is called Waluigi Mistiques, Waluigi Smart-Alecks, Waluigi Mashers, or Waluigi Flankers. Like most other teams, the characters on the team are chosen by the game during Challenge Mode, but can be chosen by the player in Exhibition Mode. The Wario Greats practice in the desert, which is where the Wario Palace is located. The Wario Palace also acts as the teams' stadium.

Team Members
The Wario Greats have a very widespread team, as they have six different kinds of players. Alongside the Bowser Monsters, the Wario Greats have the second most-widespread team, losing only to the DK Kongs. He also has King Boo and Petey Piranha on his team. It hints that he may have some sort of friendship or control over the two. However, Nintendo may have done this, because the company couldn't think of better team-mates for him. He also has four Magikoopas on his team. Petey Piranha is also unlockable, unlocked by beating Challenge Mode with the Wario Greats. The Wario Greats is a very mixed-up team.

Mario Super Sluggers
The team reappeared in Mario Super Sluggers, now known as the Wario Muscles, but it is known as the Waluigi Spitballs when the Sub-Captain, Waluigi, heads the team, and their home stadium is Wario City. The team has the least number of team players, with hardly any of them showing positive chemistry with Wario and Waluigi. In fact, the Wario Muscles is primarily composed of characters who are common enemies to Mario and Luigi. The teammates also tend to have positive chemistry with characters from other teams; for one example, Koopa Troopa would show positive chemistry with some of the members of the Bowser Monsters.
