Trivia[]
- The connection between Banjo & Kazooie and Yooka & Laylee is that they are both duos of animals, including a winged one, who go on quests to find items scattered throughout worlds (Jiggies and Pagies, respectively) by solving puzzles and platforming. Banjo and Kazooie are also considered the inspiration for Yooka and Laylee, the latter serving as spiritual successors.
- This battle would have been in 3D.
- The original music for this battle would have been called "Pieces and Pages", referring to the Jiggies and Pagies the respective duos look for.

Banjo & Kazooie VS Yooka & Laylee. Predecessors VS Successors.
Introduction[]
"Death Battle Opening Theme"
Wiz: "Banjo & Kazooie, the Bear and Bird duo of Spiral Mountain."
Boomstick: "And Yooka & Laylee, Shipwreck Creek's Lizard and Bat duo."
Wiz: "Even before Man could utter a word, the phrase 2 are better than 1 has been a concept that has helped many through untold struggles."
Boomstick: "And these 2 duos have overcome many random and ridiculous struggles."
Wiz: "For this match up, we will be focusing on what options the 2 duos would normally have on a regular bases. Meaning both environmental powers and transformations will be excluded."
Boomstick: "He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick!"
Wiz: "And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out who would win...a Death Battle!"
Banjo & Kazooie[]
(Spiral Mountain Theme)
Wiz: "While Spiral Mountain is a typically peaceful place, it's home to many strange things."
Boomstick: "From living carrots, to living boulders, to a fat ugly witch who rhymes. It's a never ending...SPIRAL...of confusion."
Wiz: "But what is probably the most random of all is the surprisingly and unbelievably effective duo of a Bear and a Bird. Their names are Banjo & Kazooie."
(Main Title - Banjo Kazooie)
Boomstick: "Banjo & KAZOO...ie? Those have got to be the biggest hillbilly names I've even heard of."
Wiz: "You of all people are making fun of hillbillies?"
Boomstick: "Momma-Boomstick likes to refer to me as what we call, a hillboomie. Because when she gave birth to me, I just-
Background Banjo[]
- Species: Brown Honey Bear
- Height: 6'4''
- Weight: Unknown
- Age: Likely in his 30s
- Likes: Playing the banjo, honeycombs, and pizza
- Dislikes: Being mean
Wiz: "Anyways...Being an easygoing Bear, Banjo never really did much with his life nor did he seek adventure. But all that changed when he met Kazooie, his soon to be best friend and adventure partner."
Background Kazooie[]
- Species: Red-Crested Breegull
- Height: 6'0''
- Weight: Unknown
- Age: Likely in her 30s
- Likes: Playing the kazoo, smart mouthing, Jiggies, and poker
- Dislikes: Having to deal with other people's troubles
Boomstick: "Unlike our well mannered Bear, this Roadrunner rip off is all about squawking it to um and being in other people's faces. These 2 are kinda of like you and me. Huh, Wiz?
Wiz: "Yeah.....And like us, these 2 have somehow come together to make something great."
Boomstick: "After becoming friends, they alongside Banjo's younger sister Tootie live in a little house at the bottom of Spiral Mountain. Everything was great. Until the Witch Gruntilda Winkybunion found out that Tootie was Snow White and decided to kidnap her so she could put her in a machine to switch beauty with her. Hottest and creepiest game over ever."
Wiz: "Wanting to get her back, the Bear and Bird duo set off to Gruntilda's Lair to save her."
Boomstick: "And while you'd think a lazy Bear with a Bird living in his backpack would only get so far against a Witch, these 2 proved otherwise. They're strong enough to take down enemies dozen of times their size and tough enough to take as much at they give and more."
Powers[]
Attacks -
- Forward Roll
- Peck
- Rat-a-tat Rap
- Beak Barge
- Beak Buster
Get Around Abilities -
- Feathery Flap
- Talon Trot
- Wonderwing (20)
Wiz: "And with the help of some giant Moles, yes Moles, they've learned a number of abilities to implement that muscle. Banjo can roll into foes with enough force to knock them into the air. And while Kazooie's normally inside Banjo's backpack, she can briefly come out to give Banjo's jump some extra reach. Or even come out entirely to carry him on her back at much faster speeds. Getting them both up hills to steep to climb on paw."
Boomstick: "And her beak isn't just for squawking. She can peck the shit out of foes with that thing. She can even slam the ground with that beak to do some serious damage."
Wiz: "But when these 2 come together, they can preform an ability know as Wonderwing. Drawing power from Golden Feathers, the 2 crotch down and start admitting a golden light. As this shines, they can move underwater without drowning and damage any enemy they touch. But best of all, it makes them invulnerable to almost anything."
Boomstick: "I'll say. Even Gruntilda's energy projectiles which are strong enough to blow up small houses can't so much as scratch them while in that form."
Arsenal[]
Backpack -
- Pack Whack
Eggs -
- Blue Eggs (200)
- Fire Eggs (Infinite when using Dragon Kazooie)
- Ice Eggs (100)
- Grenade Eggs (50)
- Clockwork Kazooie Eggs (20)
- Battery Eggs (15)
Wiz: "But what is perhaps their greatest strength is their plethora of...sigh...eggs."
Boomstick: "Yeah, we're not kidding. Kazooie shoots her babies out her rear end rapid fire on a regular basis. Sometimes even shooting them out her mouth. God! I almost lost my morning eggs just thinking about that!"
Wiz: "Yeah, it's pretty disturbing how she uses her ovary. But it's a surprisingly effective way to take down foes from a distance. While she is not without limit to how many she can shoot, she stores hundreds of eggs for her and Banjo's long ranged use. And she has more than just regular eggs. She also has Fire Eggs which burn foes, start fires, and melt ice blocks. Ice Eggs freeze foes in place, leaving them vulnerable to attacks while trapped. Grenade Eggs while weaker in numbers and fire speed hit with the most force and have the widest reach. She also has Eggs that release small explosive robots that can be controlled remotely. Perfect for sneaking up on foes or blowing up things from the inside."
Boomstick: "Oh God! Now they have little birds inside them?!"
Wiz: "And they're at their best when they switch to Breegull Blaster. In this mode, Banjo holds Kazooie and aims her beak like a gun and begin shooting at even greater speeds, not even needing to stand still while they fire away."
Boomstick: "...Uh...UH...THROW UP!"
(Boomstick throws up several eggs onto Wiz's shirt.)
Wiz: "AH! Boomstick!"
Boomstick: "I'm sorry! But all this talk about eggs being shot out of her mouth-
Wiz: "It's fine! It's fine. It's my own fault for not seeing this coming when you pretty much warned me. ...But why are the egg yolks brown? Sniff, sniff. AH! And why do they reek of alcohol?! Even you don't drink enough for that!"
Boomstick: "Don't have to. All the Geese in my egg farm drink enough to make that happen."
(Beer Gulping)
Wiz: "Ah! Anyways, their use of eggs in conjunction with their other abilities have helped them take down foes big and small. They've even received help from shamans, like Mumbo Jumbo and Humba Wumba. The latter of which used the power of the Mega-Glowbo to turn Kazooie into Dragon Kazooie."
Boomstick: "Hell yeah! Bird gone Dragon baby! While in this form, she can breath fire to torch down all who stand in front of her."
Feats[]
- Withstood pressure at hundreds of feat below
- Dodged Dragons from atop a mountain
- Walk across lava
- Shattered large metal
- Defeated Gruntilda, Klungo, Wizpig, and Canary Mary
Boomstick: "Despite the cute and kid friendly image these 2 show, they're monsters in fur and feathers. Kazooie's eggs can break through giant spider web. And they even defeated the 2 Dragons of Hailfire Peaks."
Wiz: "More than that, while Banjo is normally regarded as a slow bear, he was able to dodge their attacks. Before fighting either of these Dragons, when walking through their lands, they rain balls of either fire or ice from above. Between when the sound of them expelling it occurs and when they actually hit, these attack made it down from the mountain peak in 1 second. And Banjo even up close has been shown to be able to dodge them."
Boomstick: "They can even take those attacks head on. And their attacks can destroy ruins."
Wiz: "In their attempt to save Tootie, they took down Gruntilda. Burying her alive in the process."
Boomstick: "But that rhymy bitch just refused to stay down. Even after losing to them 4 times, she just refused to give up. Even when she was ahead."
Wiz: "Eventually LOG, the...Lord of Games decided to put her to work in a factory making games forever. And at the same time, made Banjo & Kazooie the official owners of Spiral Mountain."
Boomstick: "And this was the last we ever saw of them. Because the ass holes at Rare just refuse to make the next game! Fans keep giving reasons for why they will or might come back. But let's face it, the Bear and Bird are dead at this point!"
Wiz: "Maybe. But either way, they haven't been forgotten. As we'll be talking about next."
Yooka & Laylee[]
(Shipwreck Creek Theme)
Wiz: "While our last duo has pretty much been buried, from that soil has sprouted another duo. The spiritual successes to the Bear and Bird. Allow me to introduce you all to the Lizard and Bat duo, Yooka & Laylee."
(Yooka-Laylee Main Theme)
Boomstick: "What kind of names are Yooka and Laylee?"
Wiz: "The 2 names are actually each a half puns. As when put together they form ukulele, a Hawaiian instrument. Although their names are spelt in a more English way."
Boomstick: "Okay, who's naming these animals? King Piccolo?"
Background Yooka[]
- Species: Chameleon
- Height: 3'2.35''
- Weight: Unknown
- Age: Unknown
- Likes: Adventuring, enjoying the weather
- Dislikes: Being mean
Wiz: "Not much is known about these 2 or how they met."
Background Laylee[]
- Species: Fruit Bat
- Height: 1'6''
- Weight: Unknown
- Age: Unknown
- Likes: Quills, smart mouthing, Treasure and Pagies
- Dislikes: Having to put in effort
Boomstick: "What we do know is they're best friends living together in a place called Shipwreck Creek. A creek with a shipwreck...Duh."
Wiz: "And just a little walk away from it was Hivory Towers. A book factory run by the evil Capital B."
Boomstick: "His evil plan, using this machine that sucks up books to steal every book in the world and eliminate all competition. He's basically the Bee version of Mickey Mouse."
Wiz: "He had much bigger plans than that. His intentions for doing this was to find the almighty One Book. With this book in hand, the wielder has the power to rewrite the entire universe into whatever they wish."
Boomstick: "Make that Mickey Mouse with the Infinity Gauntlet. Good news for him was his machine got ahold of the book. Bad news was the pages were sentient and left the book as it entered the factory. Worst of all news was that the book belonged to Laylee. So she and Yooka entered the factory to collect on the Pagies, find the book, and take Capital B. down."
Wiz: "And as luck would have it, they had all they needed to do so. As small and cute as they may look, their strength and speed were more then enough to take down all who stood in their way."
Powers[]
Attacks -
- Tail Twirl
- Buddy Slam
- Sonar Shot
- Sonar 'Splosion
- Sonar Shield
Get Around Abilities -
- Glide
- Flappy Flight
- Buddy Bubble
- Lizard Leap
Half & Half
- Reptile Roll
- Reptile Rush
- Camo Cloak
Boomstick: "They also met Trowzer, a Trouser Snake who wears trousers...Because why not? He taught them abilities like the Buddy Slam, where Laylee slams Yooka into the ground to crush their foes flat."
Wiz: "The Reptile Roll has her use him like a circus ball to get around faster or even bowl through foes. They can even charge up their Reptile Rush that plows through them all together."
Boomstick: "But when she's not using her best friend as a weapon, she uses her mouth as one. Like any Bat, she can shoots sonar from her mouth. Only this one stuns you if it hits you. She can even charge it up for a Sonar 'Splosion that's gonna hurt more than just your ears."
Wiz: "While her sonar makes for a strong offence, it's an even better defense with the Sonar Shield. With this she forms it into a barrier around her and Yooka that damages foes upon contact and is impenetrable to all attacks. It's only weakness it that it's made for land, not sea and sky. "
Boomstick: "But they have abelites for all that, too. Being a Bat, Laylee can take to the air while carrying Yooka around. And when underwater, Yooka can breathe a giant bubble called the Buddy Bubble which allows them to breathe and move underwater like it's not even their."
Wiz: "Being a Chameleon, Yooka should naturally be able to camouflage. But he takes it hundreds of times further with" the Camo Cloak. An ability where he bends light around himself to create total invisibility."
Arsenal[]
Tonic -
- Livewire
Boomstick: "Man! These are crazy ass powers! Too bad they all draw from the same energy source and can quickly tire them out. This leaves them feeling pretty insecure. Going as far as to take Tonics to keep it up."
Wiz: "No...No! Not that kind of tonic. These are Play-Tonics. Specially designed concoctions that when used enhance certain abilities."
Boomstick: "Uh, yeah. That's what I said."
Wiz: "No! I mean combat abilities. Like the ones we've been talking about?"
Boomstick: "Yeah. Tonics like Athlete triple how much energy have before needing a break to recover."
Wiz: "N...Oh. That's what you meant."
Boomstick: "What did you think I was talking ab...Oh! Heh, heh, heh! Wiz you perve!"
Wiz: "Eh! But they can only use one at a time, needing to swap one out for another."
Feats[]
- Kept up with shockwaves
- Moved a large copper pipe by the tongue
- Withstood a castle furnace
- Tanked a satellite explosion
- Defeated Capital B. and Dr. Quack each more than once
Boomstick: "
