In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', during the final battle against [[Gruntilda]], when she is close to being defeated, the witch will summon a magic barrier to protect herself from [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]]'s attacks. During this, four stone statues of Jinjos with a hole in their pedestals appear in each corner of the [[Winkybunion Tower|tower]]. Once three [[Egg]]s have been fired in the holes, the statues will break, revealing purple, yellow, green and orange Jinjos inside each of them. | In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', his first appearance, during the final battle against [[Gruntilda]], when she is close to being defeated, the witch will summon a magic barrier to protect herself from [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]]'s attacks.

As the Jinjos break free, they attack Gruntilda by flying into her, in order to help Banjo and Kazooie. As all four Jinjos attack, the Mighty Jinjonator appears (inside a stone statue, like the other Jinjos) and asks for the duo to activate him. Rather than one hole, the base of the Mighty Jinjonator has four them, each needing six Eggs to be fired in them in order to activate him. This can be difficult, as Gruntilda will fire spells to try defeating Banjo and Kaooie while they do that. | As the Jinjos break free, they attack Gruntilda by flying into her, in order to help Banjo and Kazooie.

Once he is finally activated, the Mighty Jinjonator emerges from his statue as the four colored Jinjos fly to merge with him. He then proceeds to start flying in circles before striking the witch with multiple times.

He then proceeds to start flying in circles before striking the witch with multiple times. As Gruntilda continues to be hit, she claims to be "firmly rooted in [her] stance." Despite that, the Mighty Jinjonator's final blow destroys her force field and sends her falling out of the Tower into the ground, where she is buried in the ground by a boulder. Before falling, she casts one final spell that, fortunately, misses Banjo. | ||
