 Sprite from Super Paper Mario | |
| First appearance | Super Paper Mario (2007) |
| Variant of | Pigarithm |
Hogarithms are stronger versions of a Pigarithm in Super Paper Mario. Their name is a pun on "hog" and "logarithm". Apart from being white and slightly stronger, they are the same as Pigarithms. Three stomps are required to defeat them. Hogarithms get smaller and faster when attacked, which makes them harder to defeat. They drop a large amount of coins, a Long-Last Shake, or, more rarely, a Shooting Star when defeated.

Tattle | This bizarre beast is called a Hogarithm. They are strange on so many levels... Max HP is ??. Attack is 4. It takes three stomps to finish off this piggy... But each stomp makes it smaller and faster... It's very hard to stomp the last one... Hogarithms often drop many coins, so you may want to hunt them if you're broke... | |||||||
