Pinata descriptions
- Arocknid - This eight-legged Pinata is perfect for any birthday party that takes place on October 31st, but it's not always the most popular Pinata on the block. There's a reason some folks can't wait to whack it with a stick, and it's not just the candy inside!
- Badgesicle - Does the Badgesicle have a certain part of its anatomy that can only be described as rough? Let's put it this way: if Badgesicles sat on trees, the branches would be so smooth, birds would slip off.
- Barkbark - The Barkbark is man's best friend. His qualities are loyalty, cheery disposition, obedience, and every now and then slobbery overfriendlyness.
- Bispotti - This piñata is very neat and tidy. It likes to buff its shell to a shine and lacquer its spots, and those eyelashes don't just naturally curl like that, you know? Unfortunately, all this attention on appearance means it often forgets to turn off the iron before it leaves the house in the morning.
- Bonboon - This reformed sour pinata still loves to monkey around the garden. It's also one of the highest-level pinatas you'll see, so get ready for a sugar rush!
- Bunnycomb - Vets call them Bunnycombs, animal lovers call them bunnies, farmers call them vermin. Hungry creatures may even call them dinner.
- Buzzenge - Aloof and mean-looking, the Buzzenge will probably be the first bird of prey to visit your garden.
- Buzzlegum - Why do Buzzlegums make honey? I think it's a bribe so we'll be their friends. I mean, without the delicious, sweet honey, you're left with nothing more than a fat wasp. You need full candiosity and a honey hive to get the sticky stuff.
- Camello - Mind those jaws! And the spit! And hooves! You can see why that barbarian fellow ended up socking one of these in the face. Plainly some folks around here have more affection for the, er, noble desert steed.
- Candary - Not only is the Candary small and yellow, but it can "detect" poison gas in mines. No doubt this could make a miner's life much more productive. Candaries - not only pretty but practical too.
- Cherrapin - This pinata is perfectly adapted to its life. It has strong flippers to pull over land and through the water. It has strong jaws for feeding and it has a tough shell for... er. Well, obviously to protect it from... er birds. Yes birds flying overhead, carrying... anvils, and er... pianos.
- Chewnicorn - Symbolizing purity, this mythical creature can only be seen by innocent maidens. It is one of the most beautiful creatures...probably, if I could see it. The legends also tell us that the Chewnicorn has healing powers.
- Chippopotamus - Chippopotami must have the worst glands in the entire animal kingdom. I mean, they don't eat a lot, not really, but you never see a slim one.
- Choclodocus - Were there prehistoric pinatas? I thought pinatas were discovered in China by Marco Polo who then brought them to Europe. The tradition then transferred to South America by Spanish explorers. All this was a long time after dinosaurs. It's as if someone wanted be cool without thinking it through properly.
- Chocstrich - Although the Chocstrich is a popular pinata at parties, it might make an even better impression if it didn't spend most of it's time with it's head stuck in the ground!
- Cinnamonkey - Everyone loves Cinnamonkeys with their cheeky faces and mischievous tricks. The more Cinnamonkeys the better, and the very best thing is to take a barrel and quite literally stuff it with the little tricksters. Great.
- Cluckles - Right from the beginning, scrambled, boiled or fried, then there's the cute fluffy bit (ahhh), then we dive back into roast, boiled or fried. How can there be any left? A Cluckles also knows how to hatch your fragile egg in next to no time.
- Cocoadile - After some soothing, the Cocoadile's lethal snout becomes home to nature's widest grin.
- Crowla - When you see the Crowla, think less "dark, sinister, grave robber" and think more "garbage collecter." It may stop that shiver tickling your spine. Introduce it to Dastardos, and give yourself a break.
- Custacean - Where you find a beach, you'll find these little pinatas. They tend to be a bit grumpy, because those claws are not ideal for evenly spreading sun lotion, and they almost always get sunburned.
- Doenut - This animal is fast and flighty, not the sort of animal that you'd expect to get caught and eaten. Unfortunately, the horns on its head pick up T.V. signals and transmit them straight to its brain, a lethal distraction.
- Dragonache - The ground shakes as it moves, the trees quiver when it roars, its breath can scorch the earth. Truly incredible but utterly terrible, and all the more desirable for it.
- Dragumfly - The Dragumfly is a master of flight. It can hover over or skim the water, which is even more amazing when you consider how large it is. A little known fact is that its four wings and "Tally Ho!" call inspired 1940s pilots.
- Eaglair - The mightiest of the birds of prey, the Eaglair has earned respect through its natural nobility, tempered strength, and thumping great talons.
- Elephanilla - Elephanillas can never forget. Imagine remembering all your most embarrassing moments in stomach-turning detail. This may explain their considered pace of life; best to think now than have to regret forever!
- Fizzlybear - We all know the story of an unfortunate incident with a girl and some porridge. Do you know why she really ran away? Underneath their chunky, furry coats... they were BEARS!
- Flapyak - This piñata is a cousin to the Moozipan. Where the Moozipan enjoys gossip, the Flapyak prefers peace and quiet. Although the Flapyak may be considered to be more difficult to make resident than the Moozipan, you should find it's just as productive. Warm up the milking shed!
- Flutterscotch - Like a scrap of paper buffeted by a gentle breeze, this common Flutterscotch flutters around the garden. It's not particularly pretty, or useful, but I'm sure something wants to eat it!
- Fourheads - Imagine the intellectual power! Four brains working in unison! A pity that someone skimped on the limbs, or this creature could have been revolutionary.
- Fudgehog - Fudgehogs and tarmac, eternally pressed together in the kind of passionate embrace that may remind you of the tragic end of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. This is how they will be remembered, not with a bang but with a squelchy whimper.
- Galagoogoo - Did the Galagoogoo sit in thorn bushes once too often? Even now, scientists are coming to blows to decide if this animal is nocturnal because it has huge eyes or if it grew huge eyes because it couldn't get up in the day.
- Geckie - This little lizard pinata enjoys the bright sunshine and sand between its toes. Of course no-one would find living in a desert much fun unless they had already caught a bit too much sun... and accidentally roasted their brain. I'm sorry, did I say that out loud?
- Goobaa - Supermodel of the animal world, the Goobaa is famous for its accommodating nature and dreams of world peace. Look, even Goobaa wool is almost blonde! When the candiosity is at the maximum, send your Goobaa to the shearing shed.
- Hoghurt - Beauty experts will tell you that the way to get an amazing complexion is to use mud masks. This piñata loves mud, but you wouldn't really use it as an example of the benefits of using mud packs.
- Hootyfruity - The Hootyfruity is a bird of prey famous for its wise nature. How wise is it to fly around at night through trees? I'm surprised that we don't see more Hootyfruities with black eyes.
- Horstachio - No matter how big and strong the Horstachio grows, it will only ever be one Horstachio power. Pathetic.
- Jameleon - The master of disguise, able to blend into any environment and, unlike some Syrupents I could mention, it's not obsessed with giant robo-tanks. Where is it now? No, seriously-where has it gone?
- Jeli - At the frozen top of Piñata Island, where icy winds scour the snow, lives the elusive Jeli. It's not the location I'd choose to live in. Still, you never get stuck buying presents - woolly hat, scarf, mittens even...
- Juicygoose - Juicygeese can be used instead of guard Barkbarks. This suggests that Juicygeese are belligerent, but in fact they just want to appear useful. Useful animals don't tend to end up roasted, with gravy... and mashed potatoes, yum!
- Kittyfloss - Saturating with toxins, who knows what this poor Lackatoad is seeing? It's like a bad dream that you can't wake up from.
- Lackatoad - Saturating with toxins, who knows what this poor Lackatoad is seeing? It's like a bad dream that you can't wake up from.
- Lemmoning - The Lemmoning has no sense of danger. For example, if there were a boulder balanced precariously on a stack of cream buns, we would see the danger and avoid the whole thing. A Lemmoning would feel hungry, grab the nearest bun and tuck in. Lemmonings can process sweeties by converting one kind into another - you'll need to practice to find out how that works exactly.
- Lickatoad - Do you know who started those stories about Lickatoads turning into princes after kissing pretty girls? Lickatoads did! Lock them away, then pass me the wart cream please.
- Limeoceros - When Pinata Central was built, they needed a way to transport pinatas around the island. Limeoceri love to dance an Irish Jig, so the brought in off-road trucks, equipped with Irish folk music and loudspeakers. As the limeoceros followed the music, they hammered new roads over Pinata Island. The Limeoceros is still helpful - see what happens when Professor Pester comes a calling.
- Macaraccoon - The Macaraccoon is just naturally sneaky. You can trust it to behave now, but its twitchy movement doesn't inspire confidence. See it share the love, by supplying you with a romance sweet.
- Mallowolf - After settling down for the responsibilities of family life, the Mallowolf almost becomes a completely different creature. The Mallowolf's howl is terrifying to a Ruffian. If you don't believe me, just point your Mallowolf in the right direction.
- Moojoo - The Moojoo has stopped going to parties, because if it stands still for a minute, the other guests start piling their coats on its antlers. It was funny for a while, but the next day the poor Moojoo wakes up with a very stiff neck.
- Moozipan - Grass goes in, and milk comes out. Not only that, but those big brown eyes and the way those udders sway from side to side as it walks? Amazing! No? That must be just me then. Build a milking shed to see just what this lovely Piñata can do.
- Mothdrop - It is hard to see in the dark, so bright colors would be a waste of time. In the day, the Mothdrop sleeps, so it needs to disguise itself from predators. That is why it is brown.
- Mousemallow - My crazy grandmother always said: (1) Mousemallows are never bigger than the gap under the pantry door, (2) never fall for the "blind" routine, and (3) never trust a Mousemallow wearing pants!
- Newtgat - Ever wanted a Jameleon but found out they were too expensive? Your old Lickatoad is looking tired and out-of-date? Get a Newtgat - functions like a Lickatoad but with all that expensive Jameleon styling that you love.
- Parmadillo - The Parmadillo is very well prepared. It has a hard shell for protection, and it can roll up into an impregnable ball. No-one knows what this preparation is for, and the Parmadillo seems reluctant to spill the beans.
- Parrybo - If Parrybos get bored, they use their clever mimicry to dial out for pizza. Parrybos don't even like melted cheese-they just want to see you arguing with the delivery boy for their twisted amusement.
- Peckanmix - Other birds may declare themselves to be the 'most beautiful creature in the world' (yes Swanana, I'm talking about you), but the Peckanmix has the class to really carry it off. I'm sure this amazing looking piñata will ruffle some feathers.
- Pengum - The diligent, waddling old statesman (or woman, I'm no bigot) of the tundra. The Pengum is an obvious example of a Piñata drawn in from different climes. Still looks good in non-resident monochrome too.
- Pieena - Here's a piñata that just can't stop laughing. You can explain this by saying that it has a very positive outlook on life, but I suspect it's because the Pieena is one sandwich short of a picnic.
- Pigxie - There is something very, very wrong here. I think this is a lesson in right and wrong for us all. That nagging voice in your head sometimes gets it right!
- Polollybear - Many years ago, a group of Fizzlybears became fascinated with playing hide and seek. The games got more and more extreme until the whole group had moved up to the snow covered parts of Pinata Island and turned white. Now they are almost invisible most of the time. Technically, they are 'winning' the hide and seek game, but there aren't as many Polollybears as there used to be.
- Ponocky - Clippety, cloppety. Little hooves tapping on the ground, the swish of a well-combed tail, and a gentle snort. What garden is complete without a Ponocky?
- Pretztail - Well known for being sneaky and crafty, this animal likes to lurk about after the sun goes down. The Pretztail is a small predator, and you can keep one in your garden without being too much of a pest.
- Profitamole - All that time spent underground has deteriorated the Profitamole's eyes so they can barely see. This has probably saved the species because, let's face it, Profitamoles don't look too hot. On top of that, a Profitamole will quite happily eat dirt - imagine a smile from those muddy teeth.
- Pudgeon - All Pudgeons are filled with state-of-the-art GPS tracking systems. So, like a feathery boomerang, they always come back. Take them on holiday, load them up with duty-free and avoid hassle with the customs.
- Quackberry - "Jack of all trades, master of none" describes the Quackberry perfectly. It can walk, fly, and swim, but not particularly well. It just can't lose that waddle.
- Raisant - Small and red-like little buses, but with legs... and antennae. Raisants can get angry easily, because they don't understand why other animals want to ruin their schedule.
- Rashberry - Round and wobbly, pink and jolly, a Rashberry is an animal that hasn't realized just how tasty it looks. When it's scared, it makes a cool squealing noise, which only encourages cruel people.
- Reddhott - Imagine scorching the furniture when you sit on it. Imagine having to move every few seconds unless the ground underneath you sets alight. What kind of life is that? Who is responsible for this?
- Roario - What makes a King of Beasts? Big hair, a heroic jaw line, physical strength, and occasionally snacking on your subjects.
- Robean - This cheeky little piñata adds a splash of colour to the frozen wastes of Piñata Island. No matter how cold and bleak, the Robean is always cheery and full of bounce. How irritating.
- S'morepion - If you have these pinatas in your garden, make sure you check your boots before starting work. S'morepions love the cosy confines of footwear to nap in, and they will sting you if you threaten to crush them with your feet. Better still, they like to keep in practice with their stings - and a Ruffian is a good target.
- Salamango - Do you like curry? Really, really hot ones? Now imagine that ALL THE TIME. Goodness knows how this affect bodily functions!
- Sarsgorilla - Here we go again, another video game with a big ape in it. Can someone explain to me why the guy who write games are so fascinated with really big apes?
- Shellybean - Now I'm all for security, but surely the Shellybean goes a step too far. It has a shell house on its back, and it needs another house to sleep in at night. Just imagine them all inside, not talking to each other, curled up in their individual shells. In the day, you can get the Shellybean to help out by eating weed seeds.
- Sherbat - When piñatas were just evolving, what would become the Sherbat was developing a taste for extreme sports. For a time, it looked like street-pizza extinction. Then one morning, that strange creature with the sagging armpits became a Sherbat legend! It can bust some moves, too. I hear Dastardos appreciates a bit of Sherbat dancing.
- Smelba - Smelbas have many endearing qualities... that most people ignore because they are fixated on the smells that come from this misunderstood little pinata. That said, if you want to send a Ruffian packing, fire this stink-bomb in the right direction.
- Sparrowmint - If someone told you they never seen a Sparrowmint, they must have never opened their eyes or been green with a ray gun. Now if there was an only good use for them.
- Squazzil - No matter what has happened -- disaster, illness, family tragedy -- Squazzils are always bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. It can get really annoying.
- Swanana - Sophisticated, refined, almost regal, you may think the Swanana is a fine-looking bird, but you'd be wrong. The Swanana prefers the term "gorgeous!"
- Sweetle - Ancient Egyptians worshipped the God Khepri, who was associated with the beetle. On Pinata Island, the Sweetle is just another bug, so don't let it convince you to lend it money. Despite what it says, it does not have worshippers who will pay you back next Thursday.
- Sweetooth - Sweetooths like playing table tennis. They are surprisingly skillful with their broad paddle-like tails which they use to return almost any shot you can fire at them. Their lightning fast reactions make the Sweetooth a formidable foe at the tennis table!
- Syrupent - The only thing the Syrupent has in common with the less reputable members of its family is its shape. 'What kind of snake is that' you may say? The best kind.
- Taffly - It's not just the buzzing that's annoying. They can fly and stick to walls, which are cool abilities. But, how do they use them? By standing on the worst kinds of stuff and then standing on stuff you're eating! Grrrr. Turn its bad habits to your advantage by feeding it fruit.
- Tartridge - This little pinata seems calm and sensible, but in a party situation it loses its head! After the events of the Pinata Flying Club Christmas party, the Tartridge lost its pilots license. Grounded, and all because of that trick with the egg whisk and a bar of soap. Still, at least the feathers seem to have grown back...
- Tigermisu - This Pinata is so chilled it never even changes out of these stripy pajamas. Just because it looks like an oversized tabby cat doesn't mean you can forget about treating it with respect. I've heard stories about hunters armed with nothing more than a bowl of warm milk and a bow on a string. All they ever find is the hunters' hats lightly sprinkled with salt and pepper.
- Twingersnap - When it comes to improving something, it's obvious that two is twice as good as one. This is the next step in Syrupent evolution. But they aren't just two heads - the left head is touch sensitive too!
- Vulchurro - Vulchurros tend to have a bad name, but if you think about it, they are planet savers. They are a totally organic, completely natural, self-contained, recycling plant. You don't even need to take the 'trash' out, they will come to you.
- Walrusk - It's a little known fact that the Walrusk is Piñata Island's response to 60's flower power. All the hippies grew their hair long and the Walrusk wanted to join in. However, the Walrusk is not particularly hairy, so it had to grow its teeth instead. I wonder why they didn't continue to follow fashion - would have been nice to see the Walrusk version of the Afro in the 70's.
- Whirlm - Every garden has to start somewhere, and it's harder to keep Whirlms out than it is to keep them in. Ancient wisdom says, "Whirlms are the foundation of any successful garden." Please don't mistake them for stomach parasites.
- Zumbug - Exotic, elegant, and with a striking appearance, the Zumbug is so much more than a stripy Horstachio. It's also one of the favorite snacks of jungle predators!
