{{distinguish|[[Spell]]}}
'''Transformations''' are a type of magic spell that transform [[Banjo]] and/or [[Kazooie]] into a different species or object. Since their debut in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', transformations have also appeared in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'' and ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge]]''. Transformations are usually done by [[Mumbo Jumbo]], although in ''Banjo-Tooie'', they are handled by [[Humba Wumba]] instead. Transformations serve various and specific purposes, such as the ability to access certain areas or to talk to certain characters.

==History==
===''Banjo-Kazooie''===
In ''Banjo-Kazooie'', all transformations are invulnerable to hazardous terrain, can all fit in small spaces, and can all climb slopes too steep for even the [[Talon Trot]]. Most transformations cannot attack, and most of them can walk underwater with no need for air. Each transformation costs five [[Mumbo Token]]s to unlock, and are only available in a specific level. However, it is possible for Banjo and Kazooie to exit into [[Gruntilda's Lair]] while they are still transformed, as some rooms have Jiggies that can only be obtained while Banjo and Kazooie are transformed.

Very rarely, Mumbo Jumbo mistakenly turns Banjo into a washing machine just before correcting himself. Mumbo Jumbo also mentions that he would transform Banjo into a [[T-Rex]], but he changes his mind and breaks the [[fourth wall]] by saying that the transformation is intended for the [[Banjo-Tooie|next game]].

!Summary
|-
|[[File:B-K Termite Banjo screenshot.jpg|100px]]<br>[[Termite Banjo|Termite]]
|Found in [[Spiral Mountain]]. Its main use is to walk on steep slopes, such as the ones in [[Ticker's Tower]] or the mountain in the world's entrance in Gruntilda's Lair, but it can also be used to walk on water without losing oxygen and fall off high places without receiving damage. While transformed, other [[Ticker]]s do not attempt to harm Termite Banjo, although touching them still damage him. They also talk to him, wanting his backpack and shorts.
|-
|[[File:B-K Crocodile Banjo screenshot.png|100px]]<br>[[Crocodile Banjo|Crocodile]]
|Found in [[Bubblegloop Swamp]]. It is used to reach and challenge [[Mr. Vile]] in his mini-game where one crocodile must eat more [[Yumbly|Yumblies]] and/or [[Grumbly|Grumblies]] than the other, walk on [[piranha water]] without recieving damage and enter small spaces such as the way to [[Cheato]] in the lava area of [[Gruntilda's Lair]] for the "BLUEEGGS" [[cheat code]]. Crocodile Banjo is also the only transformation in ''Banjo-Kazooie'' that can attack, biting enemies with {{Button|N64|B}}, and the only one in the [[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|entire series]] to be able to wear [[Turbo Trainers]].
|-
|[[File:Walrus Banjo BK art render.jpg|100px]]<br>[[Walrus Banjo|Walrus]]
|Found in [[Freezeezy Peak]]. As a walrus, Banjo can enter small spaces and move around in Freezeezy Peak's cold water without taking damage. Banjo is required to be a walrus during the first race with [[Boggy]], who insists that the available sled is too small for Banjo and Kazooie to ride. If Walrus Banjo wins the race, he earns a [[Jiggy]]. Banjo can also take advantage of his walrus transformation as a disguise in order to talk to [[Wozza]], who is otherwise terrified of Banjo. When Walrus Banjo talks to Wozza is happy to see another walrus, so he gives Walrus Banjo a Jiggy. After this, Wozza retires into his [[Wozza's Cave|cave]], and Walrus Banjo can follow him inside to collect an [[Extra Honeycomb Piece|Empty Honeycomb]].
|-
|[[File:Pumpkin Banjo art.png|100px]]<br>[[Pumpkin Banjo|Pumpkin]]
|Found in [[Mad Monster Mansion]]. The transformation does not grant any unique ability or attack, but its small size can allow Banjo and [[Kazooie]] to enter previously-inaccessible small entrances. This transformation can carry over into the hub in [[Gruntilda's Lair]], which has a shack that can only be entered from the pumpkin transformation. It is also required for squeezing through a hole behind [[Brentilda]] in the lava-filled room just before the Mad Monster Mansion hub.
|-
|[[File:Bee Banjo BK art.png|100px]]<br>[[Bee Banjo|Bee]]
|Found in [[Click Clock Wood]], but only during the spring. While Bee Banjo is in midair, the player can make him fly by pressing {{Button|N64|A}} and hold {{Button|N64|B}} to make him fly faster. Bee Banjo automatically starts to fly when he hits water. Bee Banjo cannot take damage from the [[Snarebear]]s and the thicket area surrounding [[Mumbo's Skull]]. [[Mumbo Jumbo]] only allows Banjo to become a bee in the spring because Mumbo has various excuses for the other seasons. If Bee Banjo enters another season or reaches certain zones, he transforms back to his usual form.

===''Banjo-Tooie''===
In ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', transformations cannot exit their host world. However, there are a few exceptions, including Stony, who can enter Hailfire Peaks, and Dragon Kazooie, who can enter any world. Most of the transformations are able to attack. The transformations have varying amounts of health, which is often also affected by how many [[Extra Honeycomb Piece]]s Banjo and Kazooie have.

|{{nowrap|[[Cloud Cuckooland]]}}||[[Bee]]||The Bee transformation returns from ''Banjo-Kazooie'', and this time it appears in Cloud Cuckooland. The game introduces an attack where Bee Banjo can fire stingers at enemies. The player can press {{Button|N64|Z}} to make Bee Banjo fire stingers and aim with {{Button|N64|cup}}. Bee Banjo can fire at a much faster rate than when he is on land. Bee Banjo's stinger projectiles do not cause much damage, although it is the only way for him to defeat the [[Eyeballus Jiggium Plant]]s. Banjo can only reach and enter [[Zubba Nest]] as a bee. While flying at a fast speed, Bee Banjo leaves behind an animation trail of blue sparks. Banjo cannot reach and enter the [[Zubba Nest]] unless he is under the bee transformation. Bee Banjo can earn a [[Jiggy]] in the nest by completing a mini-game.

===''Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge''===
In ''Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge'', transformations are once again handled by Mumbo Jumbo and require [[Mumbo Token|Mumbo Totem]]s to use. Similar to ''Banjo-Tooie'', most transformations have the ability to attack. Unlike the [[Nintendo 64]] games, any transformation is usable in any of the worlds as long as it has been unlocked in its initial world.
