'''Stomponadon''' is a giant dinosaur appearing in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'' who is very large in size and is known to be the biggest character in the ''[[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|Banjo-Kazooie]]'' series as only his foot is visible in the game. | '''Stomponadon''' is a giant dinosaur appearing in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'' who is very large in size and is known to be the biggest character in the ''[[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|Banjo-Kazooie]]'' series as only his foot is visible in the game. | ||
He resides in the [[Stomping Plains]] of [[Terrydactyland]]. | He resides in the [[Stomping Plains]] of [[Terrydactyland]]. Unable to be killed or damaged in any way, his purpose as one of ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s several crushing hazards is to aggravate the player and impede progress. His love of stomping, as his name implies, racks up great damage upon those who wish to cross his territory; his stomp will flatten [[Banjo]] and/or [[Kazooie]] and reduce them to one [[honeycomb]] instantly, and a second hit without recovering health is fatal. | ||
Large footprints in the ground will provide cover, but you'll need to be quick to move from print to print without being squished; the [[Talon Trot]] is usually fast enough, although the [[Wonderwing]] will offer protection if you want to be cautious, but [[Banjo]] alone does not have the necessary speed to make it across without being stepped on, so the [[Snooze Pack]] ability is required to recover energy in between stomps. (Banjo and Kazooie must cross separately in order to grab all the goodies at the other side.) | Large footprints in the ground will provide cover, but you'll need to be quick to move from print to print without being squished; the [[Talon Trot]] is usually fast enough, although the [[Wonderwing]] will offer protection if you want to be cautious, but [[Banjo]] alone does not have the necessary speed to make it across without being stepped on, so the [[Snooze Pack]] ability is required to recover energy in between stomps.

*It is possible to reach the other side of Stomping Plains as Banjo without the Snooze Pack. It is easy to get from footprint to footprint if you have the SUPERBANJO cheat. Alternatively, you can use the HONEYBACK cheat to gain health back if you've been stomped. | *It is possible to reach the other side of Stomping Plains as Banjo without the Snooze Pack.
