Jinjos are magical bird-like creatures that appear prominently throughout the ''Banjo-Kazooie'' games. In the original ''Banjo-Kazooie'', there are five differently-colored Jinjos⁠—blue, green, orange, purple, and yellow⁠—that are imprisoned by Gruntilda in every world, where they must be rescued by Banjo and Kazooie. When all five Jinjos in a world are rescued, the duo is awarded one of its ten collectible Jiggies. When revisiting a world, the five Jinjos still appear, but rescuing them grants the duo an extra life instead.

In ''Banjo-Kazooie'', Jinjos also play a key role in the final boss battle against Gruntilda. In the penultimate phase of the fight, she casts a shield that grants her immunity to all of Banjo and Kazooie's attacks. Four Jinjo 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.
