Dragohoho is a large dragon mini-boss fought in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. In the events of the game, after Mario and Luigi climbed to the peak of Hoohoo Mountain looking for Hoohoo Blocks, they encountered Blablanadon watching over a mysterious egg he found. Upon the duo reaching him and the egg, the egg hatched into Dragohoho, who fired a rock at Blablanadon, sending him flying. Mario and Luigi then battled the dragon, and upon defeating him, it was revealed that Dragohoho was Prince Peasley all along under a curse put on him by Cackletta and Fawful. They did this to be able to sneak into Beanbean Castle and steal the Beanstar.

During battle, Dragohoho spits smoldering rocks at Mario and Luigi. To determine which of the two he is about to attack, players must watch whether Dragohoho tilts his head up or not before attacking; if he does, the attack goes towards Mario, and if he doesn't, its towards Luigi. He can also spit out a Hoho Stone (a very large Hoohoo Block) to use as a pedestal to attack closer-up to the brothers. When Dragohoho takes enough hits in a short period of time, he'll become smaller, his body (but not head) shrinking down significantly, obscuring/removing his wings. When this happens, he will spit smoldering rocks at a slower rate compared to when his body is normal size, making them easier to dodge. If neither of the brothers attack Dragohoho for a full battle round when he is in this state, his body will return to normal size again. Upon defeat, the curse planted on him will be lifted, and Dragohoho returns to being Prince Peasley.

In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions, Dragohoho drops a Bwaha Badge upon defeat.
