'''Roysten''' is [[Banjo]]'s pet goldfish, serving little purpose aside from being caught in dangerous situations. He was named after one of the artists that worked on ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', who the development team "couldn't believe [had] been given [Roysten] as a middle name".<ref>[https://youtu.be/kq-fpnnGzyU?t=615 Rare Revealed: Five Things You Didn't Know About Banjo-Kazooie]</ref>

In ''Banjo-Kazooie'', Roysten can be seen in [[Banjo's house]], swimming in his fishbowl. Near the ending, there is a cutscene that shows [[Mumbo Jumbo]] cooking Roysten on a barbecue.

In ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', Roysten can be seen in Banjo's house, swimming in his fishbowl at the start of the game. After [[Gruntilda]] blows up the house, he ends up trapped under a boulder. When [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] approach it, Roysten explains to them that he was knocked off the barbecue and trapped under a large rock, which he begs them to destroy so that he can be freed. The rock can be destroyed using the [[Bill Drill]] ability. Once Roysten is freed, he asks to be put into a body of water, so Banjo puts him in the moat around [[Spiral Mountain]]. There, Roysten teaches the [[Fast Swimming]] ability to Banjo and Kazooie and increases their [[oxygen]] supply from 6 to 10 bubbles.

Inside [[Blubber's Waveracer Hire]] in [[Jolly Roger's Lagoon]], a [[Signpost]] hinting at Roysten's functionality can be found.  

In the character parade, Roysten is not shown as a standalone character, but there is a cutscene where Roysten is blackened to a crisp on a plate, and [[Mrs. Bottles]] serves him to [[Bottles]], angry that he arrived home so late. In the [[Banjo-Tooie (Xbox Live Arcade)|Xbox Live Arcade]] release of the game, this Roysten's name appears in the scene alongside Bottles'.
