Why is E Gadd not in Mario Kart?

Professor E. Gadd isn't in Mario Kart because he was planned for Mario Kart DS but cut, replaced by Dry Bones to fit a more classic, nostalgic theme, and Nintendo seems hesitant to add him despite fan demand, preferring other characters despite his importance in Luigi's Mansion and mainline Mario games. He was even considered for MKDS, with evidence in prototypes, but never made it to the final roster, making him a popular "what if" character.

Is Dr. E. Gadd evil?

Professor E. Gadd isn't purely evil, but he operates in a morally grey area, often seen as Chaotic Neutral, prioritizing his obsessive ghost research and inventions over ethical concerns, sometimes even orchestrating events (like trapping ghosts or creating problems for his tech's promotion) for scientific advancement and profit, though he generally helps Luigi and releases freed ghosts in later games.
