Mo-Hog: Difference between revisions
(I changed the references to "It" back to masculine pronouns since its clear his gender is male based on being a "king". Prior to the Revision as of 06:24, September 17, 2021, the article had referred to him with masculine pronouns, and no reason was provided for the change.) |

Mo-Hog is a member of the Hog species that appears in the game Donkey Kong Jungle Beat. He is one of the four Hog bosses Donkey Kong encounters. He is the king of the Strawberry Kingdom in the GameCube version of Donkey Kong Jungle Beat and the king of the Lemon Kingdom in the Wii's New Play Control! version. His name is a portmanteau of "mohawk", his hairstyle, and "hog".
Mo-Hog appears as a pig-like creature, with light tan skin, pink eyes, black hooves and horns, and a grey mohawk.
Mo-Hog is fought by Donkey Kong outside of what appears to the Spirit Tree. His attacks include throwing electrified melons at Donkey Kong, who must clap to make them lose their electric charge and then throw them back at it. This stuns the boss, giving Donkey Kong a brief moment to pummel him. He can also charge electricity and fly at Donkey Kong, then slash at him. Mo-Hog also slashes DK if he gets too close to him. Mo-Hog is the first Hog to use the electrical charge and throw melons faster than usual.
After Donkey Kong delivers the final-blow to Mo-Hog, the Strawberry Kingdom (or the Lemon Kingdom on the Wii) is cleared.
