Is Professor E Gadd Evil!? [Theory]

[@spark9372]

I personally think he is more of a chaotic neutral like kirby is in the fact that he doesn't care who he gives his inventions to as long as he gets results in studies of what said invention can do and the common him making a threat and a solution is one of the best ways to test things like such aka he is just a kooky scientist

[@Rhyusfox]

Honestly, yeah. Gadd strikes me largely as... well, in his field, utterly brilliant. Outside of it, there is a very real risk he could be outwitted by a brick. Besides, he's an old timer whose brain is constantly buzzing with all sorts of ideas. Sure, he's a kook, but he's a mostly harmless one. If an invention of his turns out too dangerous, he'll come up with a counter. Otherwise? Oh dear, the Mushroom Kingdom gets a plumber that doesn't need a lunch break.

[@bombs2848]

Kirby isn't a chaotic neutral though.

[@cosmicspacething3474]

I think he’s a lawful neutral,

[@bombs2848]

@@cosmicspacething3474 @Spark937 For kirby he doesn't do thing because he's forced to, he does it because he wanted to help the residents of planet popstar. For example, he didn't just defeat Dyna Blade because he got hit with an apple and was angry about it, he defeated Dyna Blade because she was eating all of the citizens crops, and afterwards he raised Dyna Blades chicks. He didn't have to but he did it because he wanted to right his wrongs after realizing Dyna Blade did it to feed her kids. He was even willing to forgive King Dedede and Meta Knight and he became friends with him. He went from not caring about Dedede's well being in Kirby 64 to at first going on his journey in Triple Deluxe because he was worried about him. Kirby has befriended his past villains on several occasions. Also I know what you're thinking, but what about Squeak Squad. For that I have a few explanations. Kirby never acts like he did outside of that game, Hal and Flagship just had to adjust his personality in order for the story to work.

[@Pr0t4t0]

U come from Game Theory?

[@michaelr3077]

E. Gadd never claimed to have caught all 50 Boos, he only caught Boolosus and the portraits were all captured when he was younger

[@kingofchaos5672]

I want to add onto this the portrait ghosts were freed by king boo some of the portrait ghosts even view the portrait as a prison but e gadd still feels it necessary to suck them in a vacuum and then put them in a painting when most of them weren’t hostile only 4 attack you on seeing you One being king boo The one who is friends with the ones that you Sucked into your vacuum 2 being a guard dogProtecting against an obvious intruder three boolosses Who got sucked up by E gadd with the vacuum that’s on your back and three bogmeyer I don’t know about that but just like humans there can be evil ghosts but most of them leave you alone and why are you Sucking up all of these ghosts because e gadd told us to who’s the bad guy here

[@lauriethompson6423]

True dude

[@TechnicalTechnicolor]

Egad did not live in the mansion According to him, the mansion materialized a few days before Mario and Luigi even went there. I did a full playthrough of this twitch on halloween and remember this vividly.

[@KatelynJewel]

From Dark Moon, he tells this to Luigi later in the game "Look Luigi, If you, uh...don't ever come back, just know that I'm very proud of you, boy. Very proud. *sniff*" So we at least know that he cares about Luigi, even if he did put his life at risk at times (e.g. putting him through a teleporter that was untested.) Luigi's Mansion 3 spoilers below So in LM3, he was clearly not behind the whole thing as he was captured in a painting just like Mario, Peach and the Toads were, and finding his painting before setting him free is how we first encounter him. He mentions that he fell for the same trick with being invited to the hotel as the Mario Bros. and their friends were, and Helen Gravely was the one who set King Boo and all the other ghosts free.Interestingly, he mentions that she freed all the ghosts that Luigi captured in the past, but King Boo is the only one who shows up in the game which makes me wonder if we'll see the others appear in a future Luigi's Mansion game. While Professor E. Gadd doesn't appear to be evil in this game, he does act pretty selfish. After Luigi rescues him and said they needed to stay so that he could save the others, E. Gadd gets a bit annoyed thinking that just leaving would be a better option, but he still cares enough about Luigi to help him. Later in the game, he sends Luigi out on an escort mission because he had sent the red Toad out to give him the upgrade to the Poltergust G-00 only for him to get re-captured, and when he's talking about what happened, he's only worried about his invention rather than the fact that the red Toad's life is in danger. He also charges Luigi for extra lives and equipment that helps him find hidden Boos and gems (though he at least gives him the first extra life and two Boo trackers for free) saying that money is just as important as rescuing. With all that said, while he is shown to be selfish and greedy; he still helped Luigi save everyone else despite the fact that he didn't want to so it shows he isn't truly evil.

[@ThatVideoWatchingIndividual]

I'm pretty sure E. Gadd is simply a prime example of an Absent-Minded Professor. He simply does work regarding whatever caught his interest that week and does things while simply forgetting to consider the potential consequences of his actions. Basically, not evil, merely clueless.

[@ANDROS2040]

You're completely wrong on everything Luigi's Mansion 1. King Boo sent the invite, that's not up for debate, that is fact. The reason E. Gadd had all these ghosts when he can't even fend off a basic one was explained in-game. E Gadd caught the portrait ghosts in his youth,not as a weak old man. So King Boo freed the portrait ghosts that E.Gadd had been catching for years. The 50 Boos were not trapped, they were hiding. Just like how they hide after you free them.

[@ralphmaboi5131]

and LM3 should also be a debunker of this theory

But wait. You have to press 2 buttons to open the cage to king boo. One is to expand the room. Now if u have to expand the room that means there must be a wall covering the boos. Which means the couldn't have sent him the invite when they're stuck underground. Bowsers not in the game. Unless mario sent him the invite so he can save him or it IS Elvin Gad.

[@Daniel328DT]

Not evil, just a little carried away with being generous with who uses his inventions. He's also really old so he tends to forget things. I do think the gem on King Boo's head could have been stolen by King Boo himself upon seeing the professor creating these gadgets.

I find it really strange that E Gadd was so money hungry in Luigi's mansion 3 when at the end of the first game he told Luigi that he could keep all the treasure that was found in the mansion because E Gadd claimed and I quote "I have no interest in such stuff, so go ahead keep it all use it however you like" yet back to the third game he wanted money in exchange for some of his help.

[@talonzilla]

The thing about the whole "E. Gadd intentionally gave bowser Jr the paintbrush" the thing is, its never stated WHEN he god the shadow disquise, so for all we know, he could have worn the mask trying to cause havok with the mask. Then E gadd gave it to him as defense after the king boo situation. But soon later finds out that the person he gave the brush to was bowser junior, then he dropped off fludd for mario. But who know i could just be crazy.

[@NobodyThatsIt]

He's a chaotic evil being from the 5th dimension

[@gastonfourt5363]

Crazy conspiracy theory for you: The talking portraits in the second room you ever entire in luigi's mansion 1 after you collect the poltergust, yeah those portraits. Those portraits are probably a family, the family that had a grudge against the boo race because of how powerful the boos are, the proof of their power difference is how hard it is to capture a boo than to capture a ghost in a room in luigi's mansion. Plus, in the first game, the boos were trapped under a cellar behind a wall with no door but a switch outside of your limited view. That is why the ghosts in the games are different from the boos. They are a different species, and the family in the portraits, is the original family of that species. That hotel manager in the 3rd game, most probably a descendant of the family, a continuous grudge against king boo because of his power. And because king boo has found the crown with the jewel of power, king boo was STRONGER than ever, but the family was not going to let that happen. So they trapped him under a walled off cellar in a mansion that disappears out of nowhere and is full of ghosts that hate the boos but can't stand a chance against one. The ghosts can't see eachother when they go invisible, and the boos are always invisible and they are quite powerful, so the family trapped king boo before he grew too powerful, the family snatched the crown away from king boo before he did but the family was already surrounded by boos so they set up a trap in the cellar for king boo and his boos, the cellar was filled with a white fog that can nullify king book's power once he wears the crown, and they could not go through the cellar or the walls, they were trapped, the family couldn't take the crown for their own because the crown's power was too much that it could corrupt their soul so much that the soul itself would break from the power. But the boos, being a superior species, were capable of taking over the crown but only a specific boo could take over the crown, not the king boo from other mario games, another boo with a power of being above other boos because of their united strength on that one boo because of his leadership. The proof that this is a different boo, is because in mario kart tour, there is king boo normally, and king boo from the luigi's mansion games, they are both different boos, one is the true king and one is the power corrupted king. A war that still rages on with the corrupted king and the family blood line. E.Gadd is the mad scientist who just stumbled upon the ghosts, or so we think, and just took a liking to the ghosts, especially his curiosity of how the ghosts are what they are and what they are capable of. E.Gadd has been turning the tables of the war back and forth time and time again. Just for his curiosity of the ghosts power and capabilities. Luigi is just his way of being able to experiment with the ghosts in a situation that E.Gadd can't perform alone, and to make the ghosts think that what is happening is really happening and that nothing is a science experiment. But the E.Gadd has fooled everyone just to get his hands on that sweet knowledge. The proof of that is because in the second game, breaking the dark moon is a risk that could result in E.Gadd's life. It was an experiment that he really wanted an answer to, so he hired luigi for his experiments that he couldn't succeed in himself. Please make a theory about this.

[@dead9247]

Do you think it may have been the ghosts who sent the invitation to Luigi? They probably wanted his help to catch the boos and to stop E.Gadd from experimenting on them. Eventually they all get trapped into posters, but only one of them likes it.

[@qoobied]

Luigi’s mansion 3 is just an improve version of Mario hotel After you beat Mario hotel, everyone abandoned it for many years until E. Gadd found it in ruins with a small population of ghosts roaming it So wait E. Gadd decided to do is hire the mansion owner and improve the mansion so it doesn’t look similar in many ways Then E. Gadd released all of the ghosts for Luigi to suck them up so he could study how to improve the poltergeist for Luigi and his next adventure

[@chezi34]

When E. Gadd decided he was done with Thwomp Volcano, he explicity stated that he was going to Boo Woods. His statement about how he was getting to old for ghost-catching could imply that he has been catching ghosts in order to study them. Aside from that, the rest of the video is pretty solid.

[@katonnor]

It makes sense with the portrait ghosts. He must have caught them when he was younger which is why he was now struggling with a basic ghost. Also king boo is the one that sent the invite and they were not trapped in the cellar it was where they were hiding

[@michaelr3077]

"why is e. gadd in luigis mansion?" do you not understand the plot? The mansion appeared behind his lab, luigi doesnt have ownership nor would e. gadd know luigi was invited as he did not send the letter

[@Ghost-Song7714]

I have a feeling that the moment that E Gadd trapped Luigi in the cage in Luigi’s mansion 3 was foreshadowing something that might come up in the future Besides, I think the whole reason that King Boo has beef with him and Luigi is because, well, E Gadd literally barged into an abandoned mansion and started sucking up innocent ghosts who were probably just try to live their afterlife in peace

[@ethansatterfield5958]

In Partners in Time E Gadd said he is going to move to Boo Woods to research ghost. Boo Woods is where Liugi's Mansion is.

[@yourstereotypicalrussian6234]

First, E. Gadd was in that area of Luigi's Mansion and said that the Mansion appeared a few days ago and I would go exploring in a creepy mansion that just appeared a few days ago. The portrait ghosts are his that got out of their portraits.

[@masonjones7777]

And the reward for most original Nintendo theory goes too.... Literally anyone else.

[@muhammaddeandraal-sidqi7402]

I think that e gadd is like good but what makes him weird is HOW DOES HE MAKES ALL OF HIS LAB

[@SuperMario.1]

Considering that E-gadd said that the mansion gets more ghosts every day, that implies that he's been there before. So maybe he just found some paranormal frequency. Also, I think the reason King Boo wasn't doing anything about it was either he didn't know or he was hiding, waiting for Luigi. Because he said Luigi's *FINALLY* here, like he was waiting for him to come.

[@StardustSpectre]

He's not really evil, but science comes first, and good comes second. An example would be selling King Boo in a garage sale, likely to help pay for his research.

What I find strange is that they recently added King Boo to Mario Kart Tour but there's the normal one that we normally see and then as the rare character, they have a King Boo labeled (Luigi's Mansion) on it.

[@Briah_the_gobbo]

For the luigis mansion section of the video, egadd said that the mansion appeared a few days ago for him, I doubt he sent Luigi the letter. King boo definitely did.

[@maggiebrandy4309]

Here’s my theory on sunshine: E-Gadd finds bowser JR. as an associate, a test partner per say. So gained trust with JR. leads E-Gadd to allowing JR. to test his new contraption. (The brush) he notices that the intent of JR. is not what he first imagined. He remembers back to the incident from luigis mansion 1 where the ghost had overpowered him. He thinks to himself: “if a ghost could beat me... then bowser JR. could too...” he thinks of a plan, when he notices princess peaches jet. He presumes that mario is there and leaves Fludd to help Mario. He the flees so that bowser junior wouldn’t know about him giving fludd to Mario, knowing he would be furious

[@DrifterOnTheSand43]

[@SaviTheGamer]

That's just a theory, a *GaAAAAAAAAAAAAme* theory

[@fatangrygeek5746]

The Mansion in the beta was supposedly E. Gadd's but in the final game he said the mansion appeared a few days ago. "The spirits have fooled you." Is what he tells Luigi when he heard Luigi's story on the mansion he supposedly won. What IS shady is him capturing innocent ghosts and putting them in paintings, that's kind of messed up. But he was also in the wrong in Dark Moon for unresponsibly selling the King Boo painting in a Garage sale, inevitably and unintentionally causing King Boo's escape from the painting.

Gadd to do all this so it can get back to the powerful King Boo and have its vengeance against the brothers! We don’t know much about the crystal, so it could be something more dangerous than people think.

[@rendumguy7596]

I think you should expand on that Fawful theory. I find it the most compelling and interesting part of the video.

[@Cobalt_Spirit]

The 50 Boos and the King Boo weren't trapped the were hiding. And E. Gadd captured the other ghost when he was young. Also, in Luigi's Mansion 2 (Dark Moon), E. Gadd wouldn't free King Boo because he wants to study the ghosts while they are nice. As for the gem in King Boo's Crown, is a different one from Luigi's Mansion's and more powerful, what we can easily realise because that one was red and this new one is purple. In Luigi's Mansion 3, E. Gadd was trapped in a portrait as well. It was Hellen Gravely who freed King Boo this time. As for the story of him selling King Boo's painting, I totally believe him, He probably just wanted money so he can move to Ever Shade Valley and study ghosts.

[@prettyoriginalnameprettyor7506]

He just wants to test his inventions and sell them to either capture ghosts for him or maybe something else.

The one about bowser jr is that egad didn’t know jr was bad so he gave him it

[@Kevinsmellsass]

I like when he says luigi for the first time in the part where he started talking about luigis mansion he actualy said luiki

[@LegHair2008]

Loved your intro

[@mtnetsurfer]

You forget that prior to Luigi's Mansion, E. Gadd never captured King Boo. He had just captured Boolossus when King Boo came to free him and, in retaliation, freed all the other Portrait Ghosts, who then proceeded to create the mansion (you seem to forget that the mansion is one giant illusion). You're also assuming the Boos were captured in the cellar. However, they only state Luigi freed them, and E. Gadd only says he let them get away. The whole thing was actually a trap for Luigi. Also, Luigi had sent Mario to the mansion first to check it out (he wasn't completely fooled by the idea of winning a contest he never entered) figuring his brother could easily handle whatever trap was there. When Mario never returned, Luigi got worried and checked it out himself.

What if junior just lied to egadd

[@mattarificwolflink9280]

And E gadd said specifically said he has been catching ghosts since he was 20 and also said he was becoming too old for ghost catching

[@THawkMedia]

Honestly think he could be. Dude sent a toad out in a hotel he KNEW was haunted, AND WANTED EVERYONE CATURED.

[@vespercire]

Negligent isn't the same as evil. Also, he wanted to get out of the hotel because he probably thought Luigi was there to save him, and not that Mario and the others were captured.

He’s good I think because many in Mario sunshine he probably gave the painting machine to someone and he gave it to bowser jr or bowser jr was in dischise

[@SuperToonDisneyProductions]

He's not evil at all. He's just a scientist who makes mistakes sometimes.

[@bismofunyuns726]

3:03 so? Who in the freaking world would have a dark light? That’s the only thing that’ll let them free. Plus, it’s probably all just game design. Who cares? All though these are my thoughts, it’s fun to theorize and you proved some good points.

[@yoshi7193]

Yoshi yosh, Yoshi! (E.Gadd turns in to Dr Gero? Sign me in!)

[@StarMan881Gaming]

while i don't think that he is good, i don't think he is evil ether. i think he is just a guy who just loves his job so much that he doesn't care if what he is actually doing is for good or bad.
