Time Washing Machine
The Time Washing Machine, also referred to as simply the Washing Machine, is a washing machine that can travel through time, introduced in the Rabbids game Raving Rabbids: Travel in Time. It also appears in Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle.
In Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, the Time Washing Machine appears in the introductory cutscene, where it transports a group of Rabbids to the Genius Girl's laboratory. The Rabbids exit the Time Washing Machine and begin causing chaos around the room. One of them finds the nearby SupaMerge headset and accidentally hits the Time Washing Machine with a beam from the headset, causing the Time Washing Machine to malfunction and ultimately transport itself, other objects in the room, the Rabbids, and Beep-0 to the Mushroom Kingdom. The Time Washing Machine then appears in the sky above the Ancient Gardens. It almost falls on Beep-0, but Mario saves him from it.
The Time Washing Machine can later be found near Princess Peach's Castle, where the heroes can enter it to replay a completed level. In addition, following the Megabug's defeat, Beep-0, referring to himself as "F.B." ("Future Beep-0"), sends a letter containing weapons to his past self through the Time Washing Machine.
The Time Washing Machine also appears in the Donkey Kong Adventure story expansion. In it, Rabbid Kong is encouraged to touch it by a duo of other Rabbids. After he slams on the machine, it activates, sending Rabbid Kong, the other Rabbids, and various objects inside of itself. This is observed by Bowser Jr. and Spawny on the former's Junior Clown Car, and Spawny inadvertently shoots a beam from the SupaMerge inside of the machine. The machine's door then closes. Mario, Beep-0, Luigi, Rabbid Luigi, and Rabbid Peach soon after notice the Time Washing Machine, and Rabbid Peach attempts to charge her mobile phone by plugging it into the machine. Before the others can stop her from doing this, the Time Washing Machine teleports away with Rabbid Peach and Beep-0, to Mario's shock. It ends up landing on Donkey Kong Island, although the collision causes the pieces of the machine to scatter around the island. Another Megabug also appears on the island, contaminating its bananas and powering up Rabbid Kong. Rabbid Peach and Beep-0 team up with Donkey Kong and Rabbid Cranky to get the machine parts back from Rabbid Kong and his army of Rabbids. They eventually succeed in doing this, but Rabbid Peach and Beep-0 decide to stay on the island for a while before returning to the Mushroom Kingdom.
