Sylvia first appears during [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door#Chapter 3: Of Glitz and Glory|Chapter 3]], where she spends her vacation in [[Glitzville]], together with her family. She shows a dislike to the combat sports in the [[Glitz Pit]], going as far as to call them "barbarous". As [[Mario]] under the alias of the Great Gonzales raises in ranks however, she admits that her son might benefit from knowing how to fight for self-defense purposes and starts looking for a fighting tutor. She even offers Mario this position after he became champion, although the player is unable to accept her offer. | Sylvia first appears during [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door#Chapter 3: Of Glitz and Glory|Chapter 3]], where she spends her vacation in [[Glitzville]], together with her family.

Mario meets Sylvia again in [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door#Chapter 6: 3 Days of Excess|Chapter 6]] inside the [[Excess Express]]. During that time they returned from Glitzville and boarded the Excess Express to return to their home in Poshley Heights. During the train ride, Mario stumbles into an argument between her and her husband about what to buy their son for his birthday. Sylvia is certain that the present has to be something educational, instead of something expensive. She is not aware, however, that her son actually wishes to become a train engineer in his future. She and her husband only take notice when Mario delivers an [[Autograph (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Autograph]] of the [[Excess Express engineer]] to Bub. They agree to give their son something related to trains for his birthday, which settles their argument. | Mario meets Sylvia again in [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door#Chapter 6: 3 Days of Excess|Chapter 6]] inside the [[Excess Express]].
