Blablanadon is a pterosaur-like creature who helps Mario and Luigi get to the top of Hoohoo Mountain (and later on in the game, Bowser's Castle) in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and its remake, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions. His name is a portmanteau of "blah blah blah", a phrase used to mock incessant talking, and "Pteranodon", the name for a type of pterosaur. In the beginning, Blablanadon is absent from his nest in Hoohoo Village. The brothers have to hike up to the top of Hoohoo Mountain where they find him sleeping on a large egg he found next to a Hoohoo Block, which contains Dragohoho, who attacks the brothers after knocking Blablanadon away by spitting out a Hoohoo Block. After Dragohoho is defeated, he reverts to Prince Peasley, who was changed by Fawful's magic. After that point, Blablanadon can be found on his nest in Hoohoo Village, where he offers to fly the Mario Bros. to the top of Hoohoo Mountain at any time. After the Mario Bros.' quest in Joke's End, Bowletta attacks the Beanbean Kingdom from Bowser's Castle. Mario and Luigi have to find Blablanadon and hitch a ride on him to reach Bowser's Castle and back when they escape while Prince Peasley detonated the castle. Because he flies Mario and Luigi to Bowser's Castle, if they want to go to the top of Hoohoo Mountain after that point, they have to manually travel there.
