The Mighty Jinjonator (ジンジョネーター,Jinjonator) isBanjo &Kazooie'sFinal Smash.
Overview[edit]
Banjo and Kazooie begin their Final Smash by summoning the dormant statue of the Jinjonator in front of them. The first opponent hit by it is sent into a cutscene in which Banjo and Kazooie watch the Jinjonator emerge from the statue. The Jinjonator is immediately powered up by four otherJinjos; it quickly rams into the trapped opponent multiple times, before charging forward for one final hit with the four Jinjos following. Only one opponent can be caught in the cutscene; any other fighters hit by the statue will take minor vertical knockback. The move fails if no opponents are hit by the statue.

Origin[edit]
In the originalBanjo-Kazooie, the Jinjonator makes its first and only appearance in the final boss battle against Gruntilda. In the penultimate phase of the fight, she creates a shield that grants her immunity to all of Banjo and Kazooie's attacks. FourJinjo statues then rise from the ground and activating them summons four Jinjos, who attack Gruntilda and knock her off her broom; after this, a single, large Jinjo statue rises, dubbing itself "the mighty Jinjonator". After activating the statue, the four previously summoned Jinjos are absorbed by the Jinjonator, who rams into Gruntilda multiple times, knocking her off of her tower with one final blow. Gruntilda then falls to the ground below, making a crater that is then covered by a large boulder of debris, trapping her.

Trivia[edit]
- Using this move againstMr. Game & Watch will show his model in 3D, as withTriple Wolf,ARMS Rush, andSupernova. This is likely because their cinematics manipulate the Z-axis in such a way that it disregards the model flattening effect on Mr. Game & Watch.
- The Final Smash's cinematic takes place atop a flat, grey surface surrounded by large stones with a dark sky in the background, closely resembling the location that it was utilized inBanjo-Kazooie, the tower roof at the peak of Gruntilda's Lair.
- For a brief moment after the cinematic ends, Kazooie can be seen holding her kazoo in her mouth before she ducks back into Banjo's backpack.
