'''Pagosu''' is a war robot of [[Tatanga]]'s, presumably his strongest one, which he used to kidnap [[Princess Daisy]]. It appears during the battle against [[Mario]] in ''[[Super Mario Land]]''. It can fire large missiles of which can split into 3 smaller missiles. 25 hits from Mario's [[Sky Pop]] will bring it down, along with Tatanga (though it is later revealed in the next game that he survived). It is unknown if his vehicle in ''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]'' is the Pagosu, as it looks somewhat different (and is far less powerful, perhaps because Pagosu was ultimately destroyed in the air battle against Mario's Sky Pop.)
