Bowser Jr. has complicated relationships with the main cast. Despite knowing that Peach is not his real mother, he will still assist Bowser in his attempts to capture and marry her. Peach herself sees Bowser Jr. as a misguided child that needs a proper parent, particularly not Bowser. Though Bowser Jr. is antagonistic for most playable characters, he especially despises Mario for constantly getting in the way. This animosity was strongest in ''Sunshine'' where he actively sought to take Mario down. Later installments toned this hatred down, with the two fighting only when their paths cross. Bowser Jr. even occasionally shows a willingness to team up with Mario, albeit only when out of need. When such a mission is complete, he goes right back to his antagonizing ways. While Mario will not hesitate to fight out of self-defense and can sometimes be cold towards him, he has no ill will towards Bowser Jr. and is more than willing to help him whenever their interests are aligned.

Bowser Jr. is one of multiple incarnations of a "child Bowser" across the ''Mario'' series, being predated by conceptually and sometimes visually similar characters such as the [[Koopalings]], who appear in ''Smash'' as his alternate costumes; King Goo Goo Ga Ga Koopa, one of the many alter-egos of the disguise-using "King Koopa" iteration of Bowser seen in ''{{iw|mariowiki|The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!}}''; and the {{iw|mariowiki|Koopa Kid}}s from the ''Mario Party'' series. While the Koopalings have continued to exist as major ''Mario'' characters alongside Bowser Jr., Goo Goo Ga Ga Koopa exists simply as a one-off multimedia character and the Koopa Kids have been replaced with Bowser Jr. in modern incarnations of minigames in which they appear. Bowser Jr. strongly resembles, and is commonly mistaken for, {{iw|mariowiki|Baby Bowser}}, a child version of his father featured in ''Yoshi'' games and certain other titles with time-travel related plots. Following the introduction of Jr., Baby Bowser's designs in ''Yoshi'' games and other titles involving infant counterparts have slowly changed to resemble Jr. more. ''{{iw|mariowiki|Yoshi and the Mysterious Book}}'' will introduce the present day Bowser Jr. to the ''Yoshi'' series.
