History

Donkey Kong series

Coconuts appear in the Donkey Kong series of games, where they are shot by Neckys and Mini-Neckys as attacks. Another type of coconuts is the Crystal Coconut. In Donkey Kong 64, Donkey Kong uses his Coconut Shooter that fires coconuts.

Club Nintendo

"Donkey Kong in: Banana Day 24"

Coconuts also played a role in the Donkey Kong comic "Banana Day 24," published in the German magazine Club Nintendo. In this story, giant aliens connected Earth to their spaceship, pulling the planet away. As it turns out, they erroneously took Earth for a huge coconut, a fruit their species adores. They agree to return the planet back to its original position as Diddy Kong starts to give them Bananas in return.

Paper Mario series

Coconuts appeared in the games Paper Mario and Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. These items are found only in Coconut Trees on Lavalava Island and Keelhaul Key. To get them from the trees, Mario can simply whack them with his current Hammer. Coconuts are used in many recipes. Mario can use these items to hurt an enemy as it damages the enemy by 3 HP. Mario can also use the item to eat it, eating it restores five HP. In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Mario must give one to Flavio on Keelhaul Key to attain a Chuckola Cola, thus reviving Admiral Bobbery.

Super Mario series

Super Mario Sunshine

Coconuts also appeared with various other fruit in Super Mario Sunshine at Delfino Plaza. Sometimes, it must be used as bait for a Yoshi to venture out of its egg. If a Yoshi eats one, it will turn pink and restock its juice. It can also be thrown by Mario. There are also tasks in the game if the player puts enough of them in a basket(or other fruits) that the player will be rewarded with a blue coin.
