Grabba is a character in Banjo-Kazooie.

BiographyEdit

He is a Slappa appearing in Gobi's Valley. Grabba has a Jiggy on the palm of his hand, and he holds it out in the open. According to Grabba, he had the Jiggy for one thousand years. When Banjo and Kazooie approach Grabba, he retreats into the quicksand, grabbing the Jiggy with him, hence his name. There are only two ways in which Banjo and Kazooie can obtain his Jiggy, both requiring speed: by using the Turbo Trainers or by performing a Beak Bomb. When the duo obtain the Jiggy, Grabba feels disappointed, claiming that it was a treasure that he owned for a thousand years. Nonetheless, Grabbed congratulates them for obtaining the Jiggy and then retreats back into the quicksand.

+'''Grabba''' is a character in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]''.
-'''Grabba''' is type of [[Slappa]] who is holding a [[Jiggy]] in [[Gobi's Valley]] of ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]''. Although not quite as malicious as Slappa, he is far from helpful, taunting [[Banjo]] by waving the Jiggy around and disappearing into the ground if Banjo tries to grab it; even the [[Talon Trot]] does not have enough speed to reach the jigsaw in time.
-The two ways of successfully grabbing the Jiggy are to use the super fast [[Turbo Talon Trot]] by finding a pair of [[Turbo Trainers]] which [[Bottles]] teaches [[Kazooie]] to use from his molehill in the valley, not far from Grabba's area, or to try a risky [[Beak Bomb]], using a [[Flight Pad]] but using the Turbo Talon Trot is more easier and recommended.

When [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] approach Grabba, he retreats into the quicksand, grabbing the Jiggy with him, hence his name. There are only two ways in which Banjo and Kazooie can obtain his Jiggy, both requiring speed: by using the [[Turbo Trainers]] or by performing a [[Beak Bomb]].

Nonetheless, Grabbed congratulates them for obtaining the Jiggy and then retreats back into the quicksand.
-Grabba is quite disappointed when Banjo takes the treasure he has apparently had for a thousand years, but nonetheless congratulates him on a job well done and then disappears into the sand.
