'''Mr. Hoggle''' is a pig-like creature found in [[Glitzville]] during the events of ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. He is famous for his [[Hotdog|Hotdogs]]. He can be found at the [[Hot Dog Stand]], where his original Hot Dogs can be bought by [[Mario]] for ten [[Coin|Coins]] each.
When Mario arrives in Glitzville, he can visit Mr. Hoggle at his Hot Dog Stand to buy Hot Dogs for ten [[coin]]s each. A little later, Mr. Hoggle imported an egg from a southern isle to create a new menu item out of the egg, to be called the [[List of implied items#Southern Fried Egg Dog of Tastiness|Southern Fried Egg Dog of Tastiness]]. However, Mr. Hoggle struggled with the egg as it was alive and bounced away from him. Noticing this, Mario intervened, and the egg jumped up to the roof of the Hot Dog Stand. Mario used a nearby Plane Panel to glide to the stand's roof and saved the egg. Mr. Hoggle allowed Mario to keep the egg, asserting that most people "don't like eating stuff that jumps all over the place".


Mr. Hoggle's only other known menu item was the [[List of Implied Items#Southern Fried Egg Dog of Tastiness|Southern Fried Egg Dog of Tastiness]], which he was going to make out of a [[Yoshi]] egg that Mario saved before he could make it, so this Hotdog was never purchasable. It was supposedly a Hotdog made to make fighters stronger.
If Mario speaks to Mr. Hoggle with the [[Yoshi Kid]] that hatched from the aforementioned egg as his active partner for the first time, Mr. Hoggle will remark that the Yoshi used to be the egg he failed to catch.

Mr. Hoggle's name is a pun on "hog" and "haggle," meaning to argue over a price.

When Mario arrives in Glitzville, he can visit Mr. Hoggle at his Hot Dog Stand to buy Hot Dogs for ten coins each. A little later, Mr. Hoggle imported an egg from a southern isle to create a new menu item out of the egg, to be called the Southern Fried Egg Dog of Tastiness. However, Mr. Hoggle struggled with the egg as it was alive and bounced away from him. Noticing this, Mario intervened, and the egg jumped up to the roof of the Hot Dog Stand. Mario used a nearby Plane Panel to glide to the stand's roof and saved the egg. Mr. Hoggle allowed Mario to keep the egg, asserting that most people "don't like eating stuff that jumps all over the place".

If Mario speaks to Mr. Hoggle with the Yoshi Kid that hatched from the aforementioned egg as his active partner for the first time, Mr. Hoggle will remark that the Yoshi used to be the egg he failed to catch.
