'''Hooskis''' are | '''Hooskis''' are characters that first appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]''. They appear as brown variants of [[Hoohooligan]] from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', and bear a strong resemblance to ''{{wp|Haniwa}}'', clay figures buried with the dead during Japan's Kofun period (3rd to 6th centuries AD). Their name is a portmanteau of the onomatopoeia "hoo" and the Slavic suffix "-ski"; it is also a pun on "Russki", a slang term for Russians. Hooskis tend to sprinkle the word "hoo" throughout their sentences. Dialogue indicates they are normally mountain-dwellers. | ||
A pair of Hooskis in [[Wakeport]], [[Big Massif]] and [[Lil' Massif]], teach [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] various techniques for use in the field, such as the [[Spin Jump (Mario & Luigi series)|Spin Jump]] and [[Side Drill]]. Big Massif and his apprentices also serve as bosses in [[Dreamy Wakeport]]. Another Hooski, [[Hoolo]], is the subject of a [[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team#Hooski trading quest|trading quest]] in [[Wakeport]]; [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] must trade items with the inhabitants of Wakeport in order to acquire an appropriate proposal gift for him so he can propose to his girlfriend, [[Hoola]]. | |||
