In her story, she is employed at [[Mona Pizza]], a pizzeria owned by Pizza Joe. Mona Pizza is a competitor to [[Pizza Dinosaur]], a huge restaurant chain. She receives a call from the [[Pizza Patrons]] for three Mona Specials. After making the pizzas, she gets on her scooter to deliver them.

Her Chimp flips over the Dinosaur's vehicle with a banana peel, letting her escape and reach the Pizza Patrons' house. Afterwards, she drives to [[Club Sugar]] and dances there. | In her story, she is employed at [[Mona Pizza]], a pizzeria owned by Pizza Joe.

[[File: | Mona appears in ''[[WarioWare: Move It!]]'' where she, along with the rest of the ''WarioWare'' cast, join Wario on his vacation to [[Caresaway Island]]. In her stage, "Mermaid Meet and Greet", while Lulu is swimming with a fish, Mona is seen reading a magazine, and discovers the possible existence of mermaids underwater.

After a while, Mona sees what appears to be a mermaid in front of her. However, it turns out that it was Lulu getting eaten by a fish. While Mona swims ahead to save Lulu, she was unaware that actual mermaids were watching her, giggling as they swim away. | ||

''WarioWare: Smooth Moves'' depicts Mona as slightly taller and older with even more of a slim build than before, wearing formal cheerleading attire. She also ties her hair back into a mini-ponytail while wearing this outfit. Within the same game, she is also seen wearing a red {{wp|Cheongsam|qipao}} and has her hair tied back in a larger ponytail during the intro and ending cutscenes for Young Cricket & Master Mantis' story. She also appears to be wearing a light lip gloss, as seen in her official artwork for the aforementioned game. This more mature look seems to have been maintained for Mona's design in every game starting with ''WarioWare: Smooth Moves'', with the exception of ''Game & Wario''. In ''WarioWare: Snapped!'', being a park employee, Mona wears a white and green uniform with a headphone and a small hat. Mona takes up the job of an explorer in ''[[WarioWare: D.I.Y.]]'', where her outfit is mostly pink and she wears lip gloss, similar to her appearance in ''WarioWare: Smooth Moves''. In ''[[Game & Wario]]'', Mona is a photographer. Due to the art style change in the game, Mona now has a more circular face shape, shorter hair, and appears slightly younger than her previous appearances.

With the new art style introduced in ''WarioWare Gold'', Mona's appearance in the aforementioned game appears to combine elements of her general design (long orange hair, blue eyes, slim build, tall frame) with the more simplistic design used in ''Game & Wario'' (circular face shape, black eyelashes, slightly younger look overall).

Mona has a tomboyish personality, as she is said to be spunky, and she is often seen driving a motor scooter. Her aspiration is to become a famous treasure hunter, and she admires Wario for his exploits. Other interests of hers include music and fashion; she plays bass in a band, and considers Wario to be her "fashion icon". Mona is versatile and always willing to help, as seen by the variety of jobs she undertakes with her employer Joe. She is highly dedicated to her roles at work and school, and is willing to evade law enforcement in order to reach her commitments on time. However, Mona is also willing to speak out aggressively if her employer is treating her unfairly, and she often complains if she is not paid or her work is undervalued. Although she likes Wario and even looks up to him, she readily calls him out for his greed and refusal to share the profits made by his company; in ''WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!'', she is the only one of his employees to directly pursue him as he makes his escape. | Mona has a tomboyish personality, as she is said to be spunky, and she is often seen driving a motor scooter.
