[[Image:batadon.gif|right|frame|Gone Batty]]A '''Batadon''' is a hopping stone head found in the game ''[[Super Mario Land]]'' and were shaped like Easter Island heads.. To defeat these enemies, [[Mario]] simply has to [[Jump]] on top of them.

'''Batadons'''<ref>{{cite|language=en-us|date=1989|publisher=Nintendo of America|title=''Super Mario Land'' instruction booklet|page=14}}</ref><ref>{{cite|language=en-us|date=1991|publisher=Nintendo of America|title=Nintendo ''Game Boy'' Player's Guide|page=5}}</ref> are hopping stone head enemies found in the game ''[[Super Mario Land]]''. To defeat this enemy, [[Mario]] either has to [[jump]] on top of it, or shoot three [[Superball Mario|Superball]]s at it. It acts much like a [[Fighter Fly|Fly]] or [[Kumo]], except it bounces higher, moves slower, and does not pause on the ground. Defeating a Batadon awards them with 800 points. Batadons can also pound through some platforms. They only appear in [[World 3-1 (Super Mario Land)|Worlds 3-1]] and [[World 3-3 (Super Mario Land)|3-3]]. Batadons closely resemble {{wp|moai}} heads, similarly to [[Tokotoko]]s, other rock-based creatures found in the [[Easton Kingdom]]; however, Batadons are the only ones with wings.


In the [[Super Mario Land (manga)|''Super Mario Land'' manga]], a Batadon is the first enemy encountered in Easton Kingdom, getting angry at Mario for ruining one of the statues and calling the Tokotoko and other Batadons for backup. However, the moai are easily tricked by Mario yelling "{{wp|Statues (game)|Red light!}}", making them stop in place. Only when Mario leaves do they realize that they were tricked and chase after him. After losing Mario due to him being in a disguise, they finally find him and jump towards him, failing to notice he was entangled in a web with lethal [[Suu]] venom about to be poured on him. Getting entangled in the web, the maoi free Mario with their jolts, and are hit by the venom in his place, melting down.

In ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'', some Batadons appear in [[Super Mario-kun Volume 3|volume 3]] alongside the Tokotoko and their boss [[Hiyoihoi]]. Apart from helping their leader and forming a giant rock with the moai, they do nothing relevant.
