Biography

Characteristics

Piggy family monsters will throw Piggy Stones at the player from varying distances. In some games, they can be acquired as projectiles, while in others, they can't without cheating, if at all.

Physical Appearance

Name Etymology

Their Japanese names all begin with the word "debu", meaning fat. The name of the first level combines it with "buta", meaning pig. The name of the third level combines it with "ton", another word for pig.
