In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', which is their debut appearance, Jinjos are featured in five colors — blue, green, orange, purple, and yellow — and there is one of each in every world. In [[Mumbo's Mountain]], when Banjo and Kazooie collect their first Jinjo, it tells the duo that Gruntilda placed them in each world. When the duo rescue all five Jinjos in a world, they are rewarded a Jiggy, or an [[Extra Life]] if those Jinjos were rescued beforehand. Whenever Banjo and Kazooie leave a world, the Jinjos return to their original locations, but if they have not collected all five Jinjos, they are required to start over once they re-enter the world. In the [[Banjo-Kazooie (Xbox Live Arcade)|Xbox Live Arcade]] version, like other collectible items, Jinjos remain collected, even if Banjo and Kazooie leave and re-enter a world.

In the final battle against Gruntilda, Jinjos appear in the fourth phase to help the duo. They are the only way to destroy a magical barrier that Grunty has created around herself, but doing so requires the duo to shoot [[Blue Egg|egg]]s into each of the four Jinjo statues, causing a Jinjo to emerge from each one. Each Jinjo then attacks Grunty's shield, weakening it and eventually destroying [[Gruntilda's Broomstick|her broomstick]]. During the fifth phase, a large Jinjo statue named [[The Mighty Jinjonator]] appear in the middle of the arena. After emerging from its statue, the Mighty Jinjonator repeatedly attacks Gruntilda and defeats her.
