He evolved from a [[Tokotoko]]<ref name=manual/> and resembles this enemy in appearance, except that he has legs. Hiyoihoi is in charge of the [[Easton Kingdom]]. During [[Tatanga]]'s invasion of [[Sarasaland]], Hiyoihoi came under Tatanga's control. In battle, Hiyoihoi attacks by throwing [[Ganchan]] boulders at [[Mario]]. To defeat Hiyoihoi, Mario has to fire ten [[Superball Mario|Superball]]s at him while avoiding being hit by the Ganchans. Alternatively, Mario can simply jump over Hiyoihoi and activate the [[switch (Super Mario Land)|switch]] behind him. Either way, Mario is awarded 5000 points for defeating Hiyoihoi and is allowed to progress into the [[Chai Kingdom]].


'''Hiyoihoi''' is the third boss in the game ''[[Super Mario Land]]''. Hiyoihoi looks much like his servants, the [[Tokotoko]]s, except with legs. In fact, he evolved from a Tokotoko. During [[Tatanga]]'s invasion of [[Sarasaland]], the alien invader placed Hiyoihoi in charge of the [[Easton Kingdom]], the third world of Sarasaland. As such, Hiyoihoi had the important task of not only protecting his kingdom, but also protecting the entrance to the [[Chai Kingdom]], Tatanga's base-of-operations.  
In the [[Super Mario Land (manga)|''Super Mario Land'' manga]], Hiyoihoi is the boss of Easton Kingdom and is disappointed in seeing how incompetent his Tokotoko, [[Batadon]], and Ganchan minions are, becoming more mad in seeing how [[Tatanga]] trusts the [[Kumo]]s and Suu more than him in taking down Mario. After [[Sue]] accidentally kills the Tokotoko and Batadon, Hiyoihoi blows a fuse and, armed with a Gatling gun, starts to shoot [[Bullet Biff]]s at everything, only managing to kill the Kumos. Mario saves Sue by tackling her away from an incoming Bullet Biff, gaining her trust and gratitude. The two then face Hiyoihoi on his floating base and, after crossing a strange maze, reach him and defeat him by tossing more Superballs at once. With Hiyoihoi's defeat, the entire base disappears, and Sue with it. He also briefly reappears helping [[Qix Daiō]] in ''[[Super Mario Land 4]]'' in trying to keep the Qix away during the final battle.


In battle, Hiyoihoi attacks by throwing [[Ganchan]] boulder enemies at [[Mario]]. To defeat Hiyoihoi, Mario had to [[jump]] on top of these boulders and fire [[Superball]]s at the rock guardian. After enough hits, Hiyoihoi was defeated and Mario liberated the Easton Kingdom. Alternatively, Mario could simply jump over Hiyoihoi and press the strange button behind the rock creature. This would instantly destroy Hiyoihoi, thus liberating the Easton Kingdom. Either way, Mario was awarded 5000 points for defeating Hiyoihoi and was allowed to progress into the Chai Kingdom. Hiyoihoi is most likely the leader of [[Tokotoko]]s. Ganchans also have some type of relationship to Hiyoihoi. Hiyoihoi resembles a [[Earth|real world]] Easter Island statue, also known as a moai.
In ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'', Hiyoihoi appears in the last chapter of [[Super Mario-kun Volume 3|volume 3]]. He occupies a room in [[Bowser's Castle]] with the Tokotoko and Batadon. He attempts to squash Mario with the Ganchan, but Mario forces [[Yoshi]] to eat them and toss him at the moai like a bowling ball, striking them down. Hiyoihoi and the others get back up and group together to form a boulder to try and stop Mario. Later, when the heroes are fighting [[King Totomesu]], Hiyoihoi and his soldiers step between them, claiming that Totomesu has no right to take "their prey", starting a fight between them and letting Mario, [[Luigi]], and Yoshi escape. In the same volume, the third maze in the puzzle section is shaped like Hiyoihoi.

Hiyoihoi,[1][2] also written as Hiyohoi,[3] is the third boss in the game Super Mario Land. He evolved from a Tokotoko[1] and resembles this enemy in appearance, except that he has legs. Hiyoihoi is in charge of the Easton Kingdom. During Tatanga's invasion of Sarasaland, Hiyoihoi came under Tatanga's control. In battle, Hiyoihoi attacks by throwing Ganchan boulders at Mario. To defeat Hiyoihoi, Mario has to fire ten Superballs at him while avoiding being hit by the Ganchans. Alternatively, Mario can simply jump over Hiyoihoi and activate the switch behind him. Either way, Mario is awarded 5000 points for defeating Hiyoihoi and is allowed to progress into the Chai Kingdom.

In the Super Mario Land manga, Hiyoihoi is the boss of Easton Kingdom and is disappointed in seeing how incompetent his Tokotoko, Batadon, and Ganchan minions are, becoming more mad in seeing how Tatanga trusts the Kumos and Suu more than him in taking down Mario. After Sue accidentally kills the Tokotoko and Batadon, Hiyoihoi blows a fuse and, armed with a Gatling gun, starts to shoot Bullet Biffs at everything, only managing to kill the Kumos. Mario saves Sue by tackling her away from an incoming Bullet Biff, gaining her trust and gratitude. The two then face Hiyoihoi on his floating base and, after crossing a strange maze, reach him and defeat him by tossing more Superballs at once. With Hiyoihoi's defeat, the entire base disappears, and Sue with it. He also briefly reappears helping Qix Daiō in Super Mario Land 4 in trying to keep the Qix away during the final battle.

In Super Mario-kun, Hiyoihoi appears in the last chapter of volume 3. He occupies a room in Bowser's Castle with the Tokotoko and Batadon. He attempts to squash Mario with the Ganchan, but Mario forces Yoshi to eat them and toss him at the moai like a bowling ball, striking them down. Hiyoihoi and the others get back up and group together to form a boulder to try and stop Mario. Later, when the heroes are fighting King Totomesu, Hiyoihoi and his soldiers step between them, claiming that Totomesu has no right to take "their prey", starting a fight between them and letting Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi escape. In the same volume, the third maze in the puzzle section is shaped like Hiyoihoi.
