King Boo is an unlockable character in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' He is partnered with [[Petey Piranha]], and both are unlocked by winning the [[Star Cup]] in Mirror Mode. His large size makes him a heavyweight driver, despite King Boo being a ghost. He and Petey Piranha can use almost any other character's [[Special Item (Mario Kart series)|Special Item]], barring the [[Green Fireball]] or the [[Birdo's Egg]]. The special item they obtain depends on their current position in the race. King Boo's personal kart is the [[Boo Pipes]], which is a gray version of Petey's [[Piranha Pipes]] kart, but with an image of a Boo instead of a Piranha Plant where the item-using partner stands. King Boo appears to slightly shrink when he becomes the driver. On the second "Thanks for Playing!" screen, King Boo appears in the background chasing [[Wario]] and [[Waluigi]]. | King Boo is an unlockable character in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', marking his first playable appearance.

In the {{media link|MarioKartDoubleDashDebugMenuBossTeresa.png|debug menu}} found in the demos and debug build of the game, King Boo is referred to as "Boss Teresa", the Japanese name used for the [[King Boo (Super Mario Sunshine)|King Boo]] from ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' and certain iterations of [[Big Boo]], instead of his usual name "King Teresa". | In the {{media link|MarioKartDoubleDashDebugMenuBossTeresa.png|debug menu}} found in the demos and debug build of the game, King Boo is referred to as "Boss Teresa", the Japanese name used for the [[King Boo (Super Mario Sunshine)|King Boo]] from ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' and certain iterations of [[Big Boo]], instead of his usual name "King Teresa". | ||
