Birdo

Birdo (Japanese: キャサリン Kyasarin) is a recurring character in the Mario series. In fact, there have been multiple characters known as "Birdo," similar to the multiple Yoshis that have appeared throughout history. The concept of a Birdo character was not solidified until the same pink Birdo began appearing in various spin-off titles. The central Birdo character (that appears in the Mario Kart series, the Mario Party series, and the various sports titles) wears a red bow and a diamond ring. Despite the pink skin and feminine apparel, Birdo is mentioned to be male in the game manual for the original Doki Doki Panic videogame. Birdo also has some sort of relationship with Yoshi, as they are the automatic partners in various competitions. He/She is a good friend of Daisy, Toadette, and Petey Piranha. Other Birdo characters have resided in Subcon, in Nimbus Land, and in other locales.
