Member of Federation Army

Marīo is Mario's descendant from the year 2159 who appears in the Solar Striker storyline of the Super Mario Land 4 manga. He looks just like Mario, with the only difference being the futuristic clothing. He is the best pilot of the Federation Army and Pichi-hime's (Princess Peach's descendant) partner, but it is not made clear if he is related to her or not.

During the Reticulon Army's attack on Earth, Marīo and Pichi are instructed by Āreku Taichō to take a floppy disk to the SolarStriker and execute operation Power Pod. On their way to the hangar, Torino Daiō attacks them and almost squashes them under his foot. Luckily for them, a time portal opens under them and they fall in the present times, in front of their ancestors. Torino Daiō, with his leg inside the portal, grabs what he thinks are Marīo and Pichi, and drags them back through the portal, but he has instead caught Mario and Peach, who, after getting free from his clutches, are mistaken for their descendants and executes operation Power Pod in their stead.

In the present, Marīo and Pichi collaborate with Dr. Areku to open another time portal and send the floppy disk to the future. Once Areku solves the floppy disk problem by leaving it in a time capsule near the future Federation Army's base for Mario to find, he goes back to open a portal for the two soldiers. In the meantime, while snacking, Marīo grows fond with the delicious XX century food, to the point of becoming obese. When Areku finally opens another portal that will lead them inside the SolarStriker, Marīo gets stuck due to his weight and when the portal closes, he is cut in half, with his legs still running around in the present, while his upper body hops around in the future.

During a Blazer attack, a breach is formed on the SolarStriker that sucks out Marīo, Pichi, and Princess Peach and the three are left adrift in space, until they land on a Power Pod, where Mario will later find them. While finally facing Torino Daiō, Marīo is stomped by his foot, but thankfully he survives by just getting buried into the ground. Later, while celebrate the victory over Reticulon, Areku opens another portal, reuniting Marīo with his legs.
