Princess Shokora
Debut Wario Land 4

Princess Shokora is the damsel-in-distress of Wario Land 4. Though only seen in her true form in the beginning, she is present throughout the game.

Background

As the ruler of an ancient kingdom long ago, Princess Shokora was seemingly defeated by The Golden Diva. The events involving this are unknown, but she was trapped in the form of a cat. The story however went that the arrogant, greedy Golden Diva cast her into a cursed sleep. The Golden Pyramid was lost, but was eventually uncovered due to the efforts of a particular archeologist. When the story reached Wario's ears, he set off to the pyramid to seek out treasure.

However Shokora was not entirely inactive and took to following him around in the form of a cat. In that form she was able to do little, but she was able to shift into other shadowy forms as well. Before each boss room she would shift into the form of a strange shadowy being (that resembles Mr. Game & Watch) that would sell her services to attack the bosses. Her various attack forms would reduce the boss's HP by a set amount before the battle.

When Wario finally fought the Golden Diva, Shokora attempted to attack the Golden Diva herself. However Shokora was instead absorbed by the Diva, who then fought Wario. After the Golden Diva's defeat, Wario escaped the crumbling Golden Pyramid, followed closely by Shokora in her feline form. While the two laughed at their successful escape, suddenly Shokora was enveloped in a glowing light, transformed back into her human form, and gave Wario a kiss. However she soon was enveloped in a heavenly light and escorted by cherubs to heaven, leaving Wario to do whatever he wanted with the treasure.

Attack Forms

As the Shop Owner, Shokora has 8 different attack forms that can be bought. Each one has its own strength and some are more effective against certain bosses than others. In order to earn coins to spend on these items, Wario has to win coins in the mini-games. In the final four forms, the Shop Owner will actually transform to attack.

  • Apple Bomb: 2 Coins
  • A simple apple that is tossed by the Shop Owner. It is actually a bomb in disguise and does a small amount of damage.
  • Blast Cannon: 2 Coins
  • The Shop Owner will bring out a cannon and fire it at the boss. It is roughly the same strength as the Apple Bomb.
