Hiyoihoi,^[1][2] also written asHiyohoi,^[3] is the third boss in the gameSuper Mario Land. He evolved from aTokotoko^[1] and resembles this enemy in appearance, except that he has legs. Hiyoihoi is in charge of theEaston Kingdom. DuringTatanga's invasion ofSarasaland, Hiyoihoi came under Tatanga's control. In battle, Hiyoihoi attacks by throwingGanchan boulders atMario. To defeat Hiyoihoi, Mario has to fire tenSuperballs at him while avoiding being hit by the Ganchans. Alternatively, Mario can simply jump over Hiyoihoi and activate theswitch behind him. Either way, Mario is awarded 5000 points for defeating Hiyoihoi and is allowed to progress into theChai Kingdom.

In theSuper Mario Land manga, Hiyoihoi is the boss of Easton Kingdom and is disappointed in seeing how incompetent his Tokotoko,Batadon, and Ganchan minions are, becoming more mad in seeing howTatanga trusts theKumos and Suu more than him in taking down Mario. AfterSue accidentally kills the Tokotoko and Batadon, Hiyoihoi blows a fuse and, armed with a Gatling gun, starts to shootBullet Biffs at everything, only managing to kill the Kumos. Mario saves Sue by tackling her away from an incoming Bullet Biff, gaining her trust and gratitude. The two then face Hiyoihoi on his floating base and, after crossing a strange maze, reach him and defeat him by tossing more Superballs at once. With Hiyoihoi's defeat, the entire base disappears, and Sue with it. He also briefly reappears helpingQix Daiō inSuper Mario Land 4 in trying to keep the Qix away during the final battle.

InSuper Mario-kun, Hiyoihoi appears in the last chapter ofvolume 3. He occupies a room inBowser's Castle with the Tokotoko and Batadon. He attempts to squash Mario with the Ganchan, but Mario forcesYoshi to eat them and toss him at the moai like a bowling ball, striking them down. Hiyoihoi and the others get back up and group together to form a boulder to try and stop Mario. Later, when the heroes are fightingKing Totomesu, Hiyoihoi and his soldiers step between them, claiming that Totomesu has no right to take "their prey", starting a fight between them and letting Mario,Luigi, and Yoshi escape. In the same volume, the third maze in the puzzle section is shaped like Hiyoihoi.
