Template:Character-infobox Arijigokun[1] is a sand-dwelling creature from Mario Party 3. It inhabits the two sand pits in Spiny Desert. When a player lands on one of the Happening Spaces near either of the pits, Arijigokun will pull any nearby players into that pit and expel them out of the other pit. Its name appears to be a portmanteau of arijigoku (Japanese for "quicksand" or "antlion") and either -kun, a Japanese suffix equivalent to "Mr.", or gokkun, an onomatopoeia for swallowing.
Trivia
- Arijigokun shares its name with Priscilla the Peckish's Japanese name.
