==History==
===''Donkey Kong Country Returns'' (''3D'' / ''HD'')===
In ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and its [[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D|3DS]] and [[Donkey Kong Country Returns HD|Nintendo Switch]] ports, Xylobone appears in the boss level of the [[Cliff (world)|Cliff]] world, [[Thugly's Highrise]]. As [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] approach [[Thugly]], Xylobone arrives alongside other Tiki Tak Tribe members on an airship. Xylobone then hypnotizes Thugly to fight the Kongs before jumping off the ship to hide behind him.

In the final level of the game, [[Tiki Tong Terror]], Xylobone and the other high-ranking members of the Tiki Tak Tribe are converted into hands for [[Tiki Tong]].

===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', Xylobone is mentioned in [[Thugly]]'s trophy description.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', Xylobone is part of the Tiki Tak Tribe spirit, which includes all of the members who hypnotize bosses in ''Donkey Kong Country Returns''.
