The '''Badboon''' is a recurring monster in the {{DQSeries}}, first appearing in {{Dragon Quest II}}. The large brown-furred primate and its cousins are among the earliest examples of the [[Beast family]] of monsters.

Badboons are based on [[Wikipedia:Mandrill|mandrill]]s, Old World monkeys that are native to western Africa in the real world. They are large, brown bulky primates with colourful faces and posteriors. Bulkier than real life mandrills, their stature resembles orangutans and gorillas. The primates made a reappearance in the series in ''IX'' after a 22 year absence.

A badboon makes an appearance at the beginning of the story as one of the friendly monsters living alongside [[Dai]] and Brass on Dermline Island. However, in the 2020 anime series, it is nowhere to be found.

 

Making its first appearance in a ''Monsters'' game, Badboon appears as a D-rank monster of the [[Beast family]] exclusive to the smartphone version.

 

A statue of a badboon is Treasure No. 515 in the Monster Statues category. Its base value is 180,000 gold.
