'''Chris P. Bacon''' is a pig that [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] encounter in [[Atlantis]] in [[Jolly Roger's Lagoon]] of ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''. He uses a yellow {{wp|Game Boy Camera}} cartridge in a dark purple {{wp|Game Boy Color}} to take pictures of the [[Temple of the Fishes]]' paintings. Chris P. Bacon wears a blue snorkel, blue flippers, and swim trunks that show the flag of {{wp|England}}.


'''Chris P. Bacon''' is, as his name suggests, a pig. You'll find him dangling in a cage in [[Temple of the Fishes]] in [[Jolly Roger's Lagoon]], [[Atlantis]]. Even though you find him in a cage, your job is not to help him out of the cage, but to protect him from nasty fish when he is lowered down into the water to film the walls (using a Game Boy Camera). To kill the fish, shoot them with [[Eggs]]. Also, [[Piggles]] or [[Trotty]] may presumably be his child. He wears blue flippers and swimming trunks with the Union Jack on them, a reference to Rareware's English base.
Chris P. Bacon is found inside of a cage, and Banjo and Kazooie must protect him by firing [[egg]]s at incoming piranhas while he takes pictures of ancient writings on the wall. If they do this successfully, Chris P. Bacon rewards them with a [[Jiggy]] and leaves the temple.


He was part of a contest that ran in an issue of Nintendo Official Magazine UK, where ideas for his name were submitted. The winner, Simon Turk, submitted Chris P. Bacon.
Chris P. Bacon's name is a pun on the phrase "crispy bacon". His name was given by a fan, Simon Turk, who won a contest held by Nintendo Official Magazine UK, in which a fan would choose his name.
 
==Trivia==
*His name is a play on the words of "Crispy Bacon".
*His camera is actually a Game Boy Camera, with the Game Boy Color in his hand. This does not change even in the [[Banjo-Tooie (XBLA)|Xbox Live Arcade re-release]].
