| {{quote|This is one filthy little pig! He comes flying in from the sky dropping little pigs on you!! He brags about being a great painter, but trust me–his personality is anything but great! I know, because I'm so charming, right?! Whatever!! I just wish he'd wear pants!! It's only polite, don't you think?!|[[Wario]]|[[Wario Land 4]] instruction booklet}}

| '''Hoggus'''<ref>{{cite|date=2001|publisher=Nintendo of America|title=''Wario Land 4'' instruction booklet|page=38|language=en-us}}</ref> is an [[List of enemies|enemy]] in ''[[Wario Land 4]]''. He is encountered in [[Doodle Woods]] only. Hoggus resembles a humanoid [[pig]], but instead of having feet, he has a wispy tail similar to a ghost, much like the game's bosses (except for [[Spoiled Rotten]]). Hoggus wears a white shirt and a red hat and can be always seen with his paintbrush and sketch block. In the outer areas of Doodle Woods, Hoggus flies around and paints two different types of pigs on his sketchbook which come to life. They are smaller than Hoggus and do not have a ghostly appearance. The first type is named [[Denden]] and wears a spiky shell and rolls after [[Wario]] to attack him. The second type, known as [[Butatabi]], has a spike on its head and floats from right to left and inversely. Both can be defeated by Wario. Hoggus himself does not harm Wario, but is also invincible. Hoggus flies away when Wario gets into one of the caves of Doodle Woods. After painting, Hoggus makes a sad face. The ending sequence shows a picture of Hoggus drawing in a book with Wario. | |

| In ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'', Hoggus appears in a bigger role as being an ally of Wario.
| | He appears only once, as the common enemy in the level [[Doodle Woods]]. Instead of having feet, he floats around like a ghost, like the bosses in ''Wario Land 4'' expect of [[Spoiled Rotten]]. He is wearing a white shirt and a red hat. In the manual of the game, [[Wario]] complains that Hoggus doesn't wear trousers, which is ironically meant, of course. |

| | The painter itself doesn't harm Wario, but is also invincible. Hoggus always flies away when Wario gets into of the caves of Doodle Woods. Strangely, Hoggus does always make a sad face when his sketches come to live, as if he just want to show his art instead of attacking Wario. |
| | |
| | Hoggus can also be seen on of the many pictures shown in the ending sequence of ''Wario Land 4''. There he is drawing in a book along with Wario. |
