Think that's not bad enough? Well, she later starts pulling nasty pranks on Wendy in an attempt to get her to break up with Travis, such as putting a poisonous snake in the castle's bathroom and stealing all of Wendy's possessions while she's asleep and''selling them all online''. Once Travis finds out about what Camilla has done, he is absolutely disgusted and decides that he doesn't want anything to do with her.

* DysfunctionalFamily: The Koopalings can get in alot of arguments with one another with Bowser being their alcoholic father who often favors Bowser Jr. over them. That said, Bowser at least ''tries'' his best and the Koopalings seem to love him regardless.
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness:
** Bowser seemed to be much more akin to an AbusiveDad in the early seasons who always favoured Bowser Jr. over the Koopalings. Over the years he became a BumblingDad that, while still favouring Bowser Jr., cares about the Koopalings just as much and is not prone to severly punishing them anymore. In fact, there are times in which he has told Bowser Jr. off for his obnoxious behaviour.
** Roy and Iggy are shown to be very close during the first two seasons. While they aren't exactly enemies in the more recent seasons, it would be a stretch to say that Roy and Iggy are close friends.
** Bowser tries to take over the Mushroom Kingdom in early episodes. Then the show's universe went through a {{Retcon}} and Bowser is now the ruler of the ''Koopa'' Kingdom.
** Early episodes were driven by familial-related conflicts and followed a slice-of-life narrative at best. Even when an episode becomes more outlandish, its synopsis was rather common-place, such as a [[FreakyFridayFlip body swap]]. In later episodes, the Koopalings find themselves against threats and in locations outside the Dark Valley, with one episode being centered around Lemmy and Morton going into outer space.
* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: Bowser's kids are either responsible or foolish.
** Wendy, Iggy, and Ludwig are shown to actually be responsible and mature.
** Larry, Roy, Lemmy and Morton are often seen as being immature and foolish.
* LikeBrotherAndSister: Larry and Wendy have a very similar relationship to this, despite being adopted siblings.
* MissingMom: The Koopalings' adoptive mother, Princess Peach, is nowhere to be seen. [[spoiler: "The Heist" reveals that Peach went missing in an airship crash when the Koopalings were around six years old and was assumed to have died as a result]].
* NiceMeanAndInBetween:
** The Larry, Wendy, and Ludwig trio follow this trope. Larry is the nice one, as he's shown to be the nicest Koopaling, doesn't tend to make fun of people, and loves to have fun, Ludwig is the mean one, as he's shown to be selfish, often looks down upon his siblings and likes to think he's better than all of them, and even makes fun of them at times, and Wendy is in-between as she sometimes tends to mock others and call people names at times, but still has a good heart and she's also the more sane Koopaling.
** Wendy's friends: Camilla is a [[SpoiledBrat spoiled]] RichBitch who only uses people for her own benefit, Ally is a very nice person, if a bit of an [[BrainlessBeauty airhead]], while Lauren is somehwere in the middle.
** Bowser's group of friends. King Boo is the nice one, being mellow and rarely ever losing his cool, King Dedede is the mean, as he tends to be insufferable and greedy, and King K. Rool is the in-between, being a cynic with an attitude, but also having a HiddenHeartOfGold.
* NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: Like all the Koopalings sans Larry, there are also a few characters named after musicians: Camilla, Lauren, and Ally are named after 3 members from Music/FifthHarmony (Music/CamilaCabello, Lauren Jauregui, and Ally Brooke respectively). Travis is named after Music/TravisScott, and Eddie is named after [[Music/VanHalen Eddie Van Halen]]. Also, the royal advisors of the Marine Kingdom in "Summer Vacation", Ozuna and Anuel, are named after Reggaeton singers Ozuna and Anuel AA.
* ReplacementScrappy: A. Byzmal is seen as one to K. Rool InUniverse, as K. Rool left the Koopa Kingdom in order to run the K. Rool Incorporated warehouse in Kongo Island and A. Byzmal took over his role as the manager of the Bass Station in Dark Valley. Many people openly tell A. Byzmal that they hate him and that K. Rool was way better than him.
* RichBitch: Camilla.
* RunningGag:
--> '''Wendy''': #[=WhateverIsHappeningAtTheMoment=]
** Whomp King's lecture about how the Whomps like him all build people's houses, castles, and pave their roads whenever they make him angry.
** If a random bystander is going to get hurt or killed for the sake of {{Slapstick}}, it's always going to be a random Goomba.
** [[ThoseTwoGirls Lucy and Courtney]] will always refer to Roy using the names of male ''Franchise/FireEmblem'' characters. This is because both the ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'' and ''Franchise/FireEmblem'' franchises [[OneSteveLimit have a character named "Roy"]].
* SiblingTeam: The Koopalings are always seen working together in many episodes.
* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Out of the Koopalings (A.K.A the main characters), Wendy is the only girl. Heck, she's the only girl in the whole family.
* SpoiledBrat:
** Bowser Jr. If only he was just a brat and not a complete sociopath on top of it...
** Camilla. Growing up in an upper class family with parents who'd always let everything she do slide caused her to believe that everyone else is beneath her and that the world revolves around her.
* StraightGay: Lemmy was revealed to be a homosexual in "The Love Potion". A few episodes later he began a relationship with Lauren's brother Eddie.
* TeensAreShort: Lemmy. Fittingly, Bowser Jr's degrading nickname for Lemmy is "midget".
* ThoseTwoGuys
** Big Bob-Omb and Whomp King.
** Lucy and Courtney.
* TheUnfavourite: All of the Koopalings in the early seasons. While Bowser still favours Bowser Jr. a bit more over the Koopalings in more recent episodes, he cares about the Koopalings just as much as him.
* VerbalTic: Ludwig and Bowser Jr. use the word "bloody" in many of their sentences.
* VillainProtagonist: Bowser and the Koopalings, usually seen as the villains in the ''Mario'' Franchise, are viewed as the protagonists. Justified given that the [=FreezeFlame22=] Universe has nothing to do with the ''Mario'' canon other than the characters, and Bowser is the ruler of the ''Koopa'' Kingdom and not an evil character.

* NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: Like all the Koopalings sans Larry, there are also a few characters named after musicians: Camilla, Lauren, and Ally are named after 3 members from Music/FifthHarmony (Music/CamilaCabello, Lauren Jauregui, and Ally Brooke respectively). Travis is named after Music/TravisScott, and Eddie is named after [[Music/VanHalen Eddie Van Halen]]. Also, the royal advisors of the Marine Kingdom in "Summer Vacation", Ozuna and Anuel, are named after Reggaeton singers Ozuna and Anuel AA.
* ReplacementScrappy: A. Byzmal is seen as one to K. Rool InUniverse, as K. Rool left the Koopa Kingdom in order to run the K. Rool Incorporated warehouse in Kongo Island and A. Byzmal took over his role as the manager of the Bass Station in Dark Valley. Many people openly tell A. Byzmal that they hate him and that K. Rool was way better than him.
* RichBitch: Camilla.
* RunningGag:
--> '''Wendy''': #[=WhateverIsHappeningAtTheMoment=]
** Whomp King's lecture about how the Whomps like him all build people's houses, castles, and pave their roads whenever they make him angry.
** If a random bystander is going to get hurt or killed for the sake of {{Slapstick}}, it's always going to be a random Goomba.
** [[ThoseTwoGirls Lucy and Courtney]] will always refer to Roy using the names of male ''Franchise/FireEmblem'' characters. This is because both the ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'' and ''Franchise/FireEmblem'' franchises [[OneSteveLimit have a character named "Roy"]].
* SiblingTeam: The Koopalings are always seen working together in many episodes.
* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Out of the Koopalings (A.K.A the main characters), Wendy is the only girl. Heck, she's the only girl in the whole family.
* SpoiledBrat:
** Bowser Jr. If only he was just a brat and not a complete sociopath on top of it...
** Camilla. Growing up in an upper class family with parents who'd always let everything she do slide caused her to believe that everyone else is beneath her and that the world revolves around her.
* StraightGay: Lemmy was revealed to be a homosexual in "The Love Potion". A few episodes later he began a relationship with Lauren's brother Eddie.
* TeensAreShort: Lemmy. Fittingly, Bowser Jr's degrading nickname for Lemmy is "midget".
* ThoseTwoGuys
** Big Bob-Omb and Whomp King.
** Lucy and Courtney.
* TheUnfavourite: All of the Koopalings in the early seasons. While Bowser still favours Bowser Jr. a bit more over the Koopalings in more recent episodes, he cares about the Koopalings just as much as him.
* VerbalTic: Ludwig and Bowser Jr. use the word "bloody" in many of their sentences.
* VillainProtagonist: Bowser and the Koopalings, usually seen as the villains in the ''Mario'' Franchise, are viewed as the protagonists. Justified given that the [=FreezeFlame22=] Universe has nothing to do with the ''Mario'' canon other than the characters, and Bowser is the ruler of the ''Koopa'' Kingdom and not an evil character.
