My take on Shroomy's family tree

(WARNING: I LOVE THINKING FAR TOO HARD ON SILLY SHOWS AND GAMES I ENJOY, READ AT YOUR OWN RISK)

Shroomy: our loveable mushroom man whose both a Boy Scout and a former Demon Slayer(to be debated if Anti-Shroomy returns PLEASE SMG4 HOW IS HE) that stole our hearts. What is this mushroom man's family like? How is he the only known mushroom man to have his face on the mushroom CAP instead of the STEM like everybody else? Where is the rest of his family?

Well, let's go over what we DO know about this lovely mushroom's family:

Lady Alcina Dimitrescu eventually divorces Doomguy in the episode: "SMG4: She's Back!" at timestamp 5:17 so by some technicality she is now Shroomy's Ex-Aunt and the Dimitrescu sisters his Ex-cousins if we are go off the idea Doomguy didn't want the trio in the divorce since he was too busy hanging out and training with Isabelle to care about them, much less Shroomy.

Even WHEELER, HIS OWN FREAKING GRANDPA could care less about him, with two occasions of not bothering to acknowledge his existance in "SMG4: Mario Gets His PINGAS Stuck In Car Door" at timestamps 3:20 and 4:52 (the latter one is him LITTERALY RUNNING HIS WHEELCHAIR INTO HIS FACE WHAT)

Aside from that, we've got nothing family-wise to Shroomy...

But what about "SMG4: Stupid Mario Odyssey 2" and the Luncheon Kingdom? Shroomy states the reason why he's there in the episode is to "visit family" at timestamp 5:27. So what about them? Odds are they might've been eaten in Mario's rampage on the place but what if they weren't? These unknown Luncheon Kingdom family members may explain my main question about our beloved mushroom man:

WHY THE HECC IS SHROOMY'S FACE ON THE CAP INSTEAD OF THE STEM LIKE EVERY OTHER MUSHROOM-HUMANOID CHARACTER KNOWN IN THE SMG4 SERIES???

Toads of the Super Mario Series? on the STEM. Mushrooms of Super Mario Series? on the STEM. HECC I BET YOU A WHOLE COOKIE TO LOOK UP "chibi mushroom" RIGHT NOW AND FIND AN IMAGE WITH THE FACE ON THE CAP. (you don't actually HAVE to I can't force you to do anything because that would be mean. But my point stands.)

SHROOMY IS THE ONLY KNOWN MUSHROOM MAN WITH HIS FACE ON THE CAP. Which means the odds are that it's a recessive gene. And if it's a RECESSIVE GENE... IT HAS TO BE A BIG PART OF ONE SIDES GENERATIONAL DNA STUFF!

It's most likely not Wheeler's side of the family, given he has the dominant gene of "face on the stem" and Doomguy I'm willing to bet is adopted given that he is a full on human in a family of mushroom people with significant skill in weaponry and destruction, demon or otherwise.

Which makes the possibility of it being from the other side still living in the Luncheon Kingdom more likely to have the many mushrooms with faces on the caps instead of stems.

So, my attempt on a take of Shroomy's family is this:

That's all I got, if you've got any theories/other ideas/point out inconsistencies or misinformation, let me know! Thank you for reading my ramble.^^
