In the [[Super Mario Land (manga)|''Super Mario Land'' manga]], a Batadon is the first enemy met in Easton Kingdom, getting angry at Mario for ruining one of the statues and calling the Tokotoko and some other Batadon for backup. However, the moai are easily tricked by Mario who yells "{{wp|Statues (game)|Red light!}}", making them stop in place. Only when Mario leaves, they realize they've been duped and chase after him. After losing Mario, thanks to a disguise, they finally find him and jump at him, failing to notice he was entangled in a web with a lethal [[Suu]] venom about to be poured on him. Getting entangled in the web, the maoi free Mario with their jolts, and are hit by the Venom in his place, melting down.

In ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'', some Batadon appear in [[Super Mario-kun Volume 3|volume 3]] alongside the Tokotoko and their boss [[Hiyoihoi]]. Apart from helping their leader and forming a giant rock with the moai, they do nothing relevant.
