'''Xananab''' is a member of a species of aliens who resemble humanoid, partially peeled [[banana]]s and an ally of the [[Kong Family]]; Xananab originates from the banana shaped [[Planet Plantaen]]. The name Xananab possibly refers to both the character and the species. His name when spelled backwards is bananaX. Xananab has a habit of speaking in rhyme and occasionally affixing nonsensical words such as "fanana" to his sentences (the latter is a reference to the banana-oriented {{wp|Word chain|name game}}).

Xananab's only major appearance is in ''[[DK: Jungle Climber]]''. For unexplained reasons, Xananab ventures to the top of [[Sun Sun Island]] on [[Donkey Kong]]'s planet in his [[Banana Ship]] with the precious cargo of five powerful [[Crystal Banana]]s. After landing on Sun Sun Island, Xananab was apparently attacked by [[King K. Rool]] and his [[Kremling Krew|Kremling gang]], who stole his Crystal Bananas and quickly fled with them. When Donkey Kong, [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Cranky Kong]] arrived at the peak of Sun Sun Island to investigate the Banana Ship, they were attacked by Xananab and his Banana Ship. Once the Banana Ship is destroyed, Xananab, realizing that Donkey, Diddy and Cranky were not Kremlings, apologized to them and explained his story to them. After hearing Xananab's predicament and learning that without his Banana Ship he would not be able to reclaim the Crystal Bananas, Donkey, Diddy and Cranky decide to help him. Xananab appears in various other cutscenes, occasionally giving advice and in some levels, where he will activate a [[Spirowarp]] for Donkey Kong if one is brought to them. Once King K. Rool was defeated on Planet Plantaen and all the Crystal Bananas were given back to him, Xananab, as thanks for their help in defeating the Kremling gang, gave Donkey, Diddy and Cranky a large amount of bananas. Once the trio finished eating and the Crystal Bananas were returned to their rightful place, Xananab brought DK, Diddy, Cranky and King K. Rool back to Earth. For collecting every item and completing every level in the game, Xananab rewards the [[Kong]]s by using a Spirowarp to give them a banana around the size of the Banana Ship.

The only other game that Xananab appears in is ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', albeit in the form of a [[trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]] and a [[sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|sticker]].
