'''Hidon''' is a green [[Piranha Plant]] with a red stalk, disguised as a green [[Treasure Chest]] that appears in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. There is only one in the game, found in a room of the [[Sunken Ship]], just before the flooded area of the ship. When closed, Hidon is totally similar to a regular Treasure Box; as such Hidon can easily prey on unsuspecting travellers searching for a treasure. If [[Mario]] hits Hidon from below, the chest ghost will reveal his true form and will engage in fight against him.
'''Hidon''' is a green [[Piranha Plant]] with a red stalk that is disguised as a green [[Treasure Chest]] in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. His name is a play on "hidden", referring to how his true form is enclosed within the chest until [[Mario]] strikes it from below and initiates the battle. Unlike the other enemies found in treasure chests in the game, Hideon is only encountered once in the game. After defeating him, the player recieved a large amount of experience points and coins, and can then find the [[Safety Badge]] inside Hideon's now-vacant treasure chest.
Like his lookalikes [[Pandorite]], [[Chester]] and [[Box Boy]], Hidon is a powerful opponent, having both high attack and defense, as well as high HP. Even [[Mallow]]'s magic cannot pierce his defense, as Hidon is immune to Thunder, Fire and Ice, and he is immune to all status ailments. Mario's [[Jump]] attacks are very effective, however, as Hidon is weak to them.


Hidon's first action in battle is to release four [[Micro Goomba|Goombette]]s that were trapped inside the chest ("Monsters are inside!"). Goombettes provide extra help to Hidon, biting the party members and sometimes poisoning them. Fortunately, Goombettes are weak against Thunder, so [[Mallow]]'s [[Thunderbolt (move)|Thunderbolt]] can greatly help in such a case, as it may defeat all Goombettes in one blow. If Hidon is alone, he will likely summon another set.

Hidon's first action in battle is to release four [[Micro Goomba|Goombette]]s that were trapped inside the chest ("Monsters are inside!") to assist him in battle; once they are all defeated, he will release another set.
If Hidon is targeted with a normal attack, he will either attack in return, or use [[Carni-Kiss]], which allows him to bite a party member for 2x the damage of his normal attack. The odds of each is 2/3 in favor of his normal attack, and 1/3 in favor of Carni-Kiss. Otherwise, Hidon will randomly cast [[Static E!]], [[Willy Wisp]], [[Flame Stone]]; Static E! inflicts Thunder damage to the party, while Willy Wisp and Flame Stone only target one party member. Of Hidon's single-target spells, the latter is fire elemental, while the former has no alignment and as such cannot really be protected against.
 
Defeating Hidon is ultimately worth the effort, granting 50 experience points and no less than 100 [[coin]]s, and the chest he was hiding in also gives the very useful [[Safety Badge]]. When equipped on a party member, this accessory increases physical and magical defense by 5, and prevents all status ailments (contrary to its description, which states it only protects against Mute and Poison).

==Trivia==
*Hidon's name is likely derived from "hidden".
*Hidon is also the name of a boss in the game ''Final Fantasy VI'', another game created by [[Square Enix|Square]]. Unlike the ''Mario'' Hidon, the ''Final Fantasy VI'' Hidon is an undead monster that Strago and his old friend Gungho once hunted in their youth.
