'''Mr. Hoggle''' is a pig-like character who runs his [[Hot Dog Stand]] in [[Glitzville]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. He is famous for his [[Hot Dog (item)|Hot Dog]]s. Mr. Hoggle's name is a pun on "hog" and "haggle," meaning to argue over a price. According to [[Goombella]], Mr. Hoggle has sold his hot dog for three decades.


==History==
'''Mr. Hoggle''' is a pig-like creature found in [[Glitzville]] during the events of ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. He is famous for his [[Hot Dog|Hot Dogs]]. He can be found at the [[Hot Dog Stand]], where his Hot Dogs can be bought by [[Mario]] for ten [[Coin|Coins]] each.
When Mario arrives in Glitzville, he can visit Mr. Hoggle at his Hot Dog Stand to buy Hot Dogs for ten [[Coin]]s each.


A little later, Mr. Hoggle imported a [[Yoshi Egg]] from a Southern Island to create a new menu item out of the egg, to be called the [[List of implied items#Southern Fried Egg Dog of Tastiness|Southern Fried Egg Dog of Tastiness]]. However, Mr. Hoggle struggled with the egg as it was alive and bounced away from him. Noticing this, Mario intervened, and the egg jumped up to the roof of the Hot Dog Stand. Mario used a nearby Plane Panel to glide to the stand's roof and saved the egg. Mr. Hoggle allowed Mario to keep the egg, asserting that most people "don't like eating stuff that jumps all over the place".
Mr. Hoggle's only other known menu item was the [[List of Implied Items#Southern Fried Egg Dog of Tastiness|Southern Fried Egg Dog of Tastiness]], which he was going to make out of a [[Yoshi Egg]]. However, Mario saved it before he could make it, so this Hot Dog was never purchasable. It was supposedly a Hot Dog made to make fighters stronger.


If Mario speaks to Mr. Hoggle with a [[Mini-Yoshi|Yoshi]] that hatched from the aforementioned egg as his active partner for the first time, Mr. Hoggle will remark that the Yoshi used to be the egg he failed to catch.
==Field Tattle==


===Tattle===
* "That's Mr. Hoggle from the Hot Dog Stand. He's sold dogs for like, 30 years! Nobody's as hot for Hot Dogs as him. He's always looking for the next miracle Hot Dog! Anyway, his dogs are famous. Nobody comes to visit here without having one."
[[Goombella]] can use [[Tattle]] on Mr. Hoggle only while he is outside his Hot Dog Stand but before Mario interacts with the Yoshi Egg.

==Trivia==
*Despite ostensibly being a pig himself, Mr. Hoggle bears little to no resemblance to the [[Pigs]] seen in [[Twilight Town]] later in the game.
*In the Japanese version of the game, Mr. Hoggle is written in a manner to evoke that he is of Chinese descent. He frequently shouts 「アイヤー!」 (''aiya''), a common Chinese interjection, and his name in the Japanese version, "Mister Chin", is meant to sound Chinese in origin.
