Doenut

Doenut
This animal is fast and flighty, not the sort of animal that you'd expect to get caught and eaten. Unfortunately, the horns on its head pick up T.V. signals and transmit them straight to its brain, a lethal distraction.

“	Look, a Doenut has come to take a look at all the lovely grass you’ve grown.	”
–Leafos after the Doenut appears.

The Doenut is a pink and yellow deer piñata. On most occasions, it is seen as happy, and can be seen skipping and frolicking around the garden, while making cheerful noises. Although all the Doenuts have antlers, this does not necessarily mean that they’re all male, as some of them are actually female.

The Doenut might be a species of reindeer, and not actually a deer.

The Doenuts also have a likeness for long grass and some berries, including Blackberries and Gooseberries. Doenuts are pleasant, cheerful, and peaceful piñata whom don’t like to get into fights and have no specific conflicts with other species.

The Doenut is considered to be one of the more annoying piñata, mainly because of the several noises it makes. Despite this, the Doenut is a symbol of peace and harmony, and is one of the very few piñatas to not have many conflicts with others, except the Roario, as it’s the only piñata it will run away if, and will try to avoid at all costs, like most others.

In Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise, if the Doenut is fed a Fir Seed, it will evolve into a Moojoo.

Rumors

• Leafos says she heard if you feed a Pretztail a Doenut, it will turn into a Mallowolf. This is false, as Pretztails will not eat Doenuts. If you want to make the Mallowolf resident, see Sour Mallowolf.

Glitches and Errors

• On rare occasions, the Doenut will freeze in modeled position and float around the garden. If this happens, it is best to save and exit and come back. This should solve the issue (only in Viva Piñata).

• You may hear/see that the resident requirements are "has eaten 6 Blackberries and 6 Gooseberries", but that's a misspelling. It actually needs to eat 6 Blackberries OR 6 Gooseberries.

In the TV Series

There is no definite main character Doenut in the TV series, but there are many that appear in the background, and all of them seem to be wildcards and not the actual common Doenut.

Commonly Asked Questions

I can’t get the Doenut resident! What do I do?

• It may take a while for you to get the Doenut resident. You need to unlock the Blackberries and Long Grass and maybe more garden space before it will visit.

The Doenut refuses to visit. What should I do?

• You have to follow its requirements. Or you might be staring it in the eyes. This will cause it not to come into your garden, just like actual deer.

Trivia

• The Doenut might specifically be a species of reindeer and not deer or doe. All male and female Reindeer have antlers, but with deer, only the males, and on rare occasions females (does), have them.
• In the TV series, a Moojoo character, Machi Moojoo, the evolution of the Doenut, is able to receive and send radio signals using her antlers. This suggests that a piñata's abilities may transfer over to the evolved form, and/or that the descriptions found in the games can describe basic characteristics of the piñata species in the TV series.
• The Doenut does not appear to like or dislike being sprinkled with the watering can.
• If there's a wild Doenut don't stare at it. If you don't look at it there is a higher chance it will visit your garden.
• All the Doenuts seen in the TV series are wildcards.
