'''Jinjos''' are small creatures that appear in every ''[[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|Banjo-Kazooie]]'' game. They have a long snout and are featured in a variety of colors. In most of their appearances, there are a few Jinjos found in each world, located in certain areas. In these games, whenever [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] are near a Jinjo, it whistles and calls for their help. The duo can rescue a Jinjo by touching it. If Banjo and Kazooie rescue every Jinjo in a world, they receive a [[Jiggy]].

==General information==
===Personalities===
Jinjos are generally very cheerful and, although often helpless, eager to help in dangerous situations (for example in ''Banjo-Kazooie'', where during the final battle against Gruntilda, the Jinjos appear to aid Banjo and Kazooie in the fight). In ''Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts'', Jinjos have various challenges where they need help, and are described as "remarkably clumsy" in the description of Jinjo Fetch events.
===Physical appearance===
Jinjos are considerably small creatures with long snouts and circles in their torsos that have different colors than the rest of their bodies. They have two arms with four fingers in each hand and two legs with three fingers in each foot. Most of them have light blue eyes, with some exceptions like the Mighty Jinjonator or King Jingaling.
===Powers and abilities===
Jinjos have shown a variety of powers throughout the ''Banjo-Kazooie'' series. They can freely fly and teleport (doing this mainly in ''Banjo-Tooie'', where they immediately appear in [[Jinjo House|their houses]] after being rescued), leaving trails of colored sparkles behind after performing both actions. In ''Banjo-Kazooie'', the Jinjos are shown to be strong enough to damage Gruntilda even after she activates her magic barrier. In ''Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts'', they transform themselves into large spheres, and do that mostly to race against Banjo and Kazooie or be thrown in Jinjo Hurling challenges.
