“ | The daring Plinkajou will risk life and limb in the paleontological pursuit of osseous treasures. Its play-hensile tail gives it the agility it needs to climb the tallest boulders and cling to crumbling cliff sides without fear. Not once has a Plinkajou been caught losing its footing! Instead, it descends to its ground-level den of its own accord for playtime, when it bats at its favorite fossilized findings to make tinkling little tunes. | ” |

Description[]
Plinkajou is a Quad-Element Magical Monster exclusive to Bone Island. It was added on April 8th, 2020 during Version 2.3.9. It is best obtained by breeding Banjaw and Noggin. By default, its breeding time is 1 day and 8 hours long. Plinkajou has a high Coin production on Bone Island, comparable to Flum Ox and Incisaur.

VSTs[]
Virtual Studio Technology is an audio plugin software that has libraries of sound effects and synthesized instruments. Within these libraries are SoundFonts, which are the individual effects and instruments themselves. The Monster-Handlers utilize several VSTs to create the sounds of instrumental and sometimes vocal Monsters.
VST: PLAY
Sound library: EastWest RA
SoundFont: Pamade Tuned
Breeding[]
Plinkajou can be bred using Monsters that combine to provide the following elements, Earth (), Water (), Fire () and Bone () without repeating any.
The following pairs of Double-Element Monsters can be used to breed a Plinkajou:
However, the combination of a Triple-Element with a Single-Element Monster has a higher rate of success:
- Of these, Banjaw+Noggin is the best combination, as failing and breeding a Noggin lets you retry the combo almost instantly.
- + Plinkajou and Fwog
Breeding a Plinkajou with an Fwog has an increased chance of getting a Plinkajou, due to this also being the breeding combination for Epic Kayna. In order to make it harder to get Epic Kayna, the breeding combination has a higher chance to give Plinkajous as breeding failures. This still happens if Epic Kayna is available or not.
Likes[]
Every Monster has different things that they like. For every unique object that they like that's placed near the Monster, the Monster's happiness will increase by 25%. Placing more than one of the same liked item near a Monster won't increase its happiness by an additional amount. If there's a Unity Tree on the Island, items don't need to be near the Monster. Below are the things liked by Plinkajou:
- Clackula (requires level 9)
- Jarhead (level 21)
- Bloofi Tree (level 12)
- Tree Hut (level 17) ()

Egg Consumption[]
While trying to breed other Monsters (particularly Monsters with a very low chance of breeding), the following Celestials and Vessels can be used to "dispose of" Plinkajou eggs immediately instead of putting them into a Nursery and having that Nursery not be available. Note that doing this for Rare Wublins will cause the Wublin to stop producing currency and the eggs will not expire.

Note that Monster eggs can only be "disposed of" before awakening Celestials and Vessels; afterwards those Monsters will not accept any eggs. Also note that Monsters to which you have already disposed the number of Plinkajou eggs that it accepts, will no longer be available as a "recycle bin" for such eggs. Awakened Celestials only accept eggs during their corresponding Celestial month.

Notes[]
- Plinkajou's name is a portmanteau of "Plink", "Kinkajou" and possibly "Jouer", the french word for "Play".
- Despite the Monster having aspects of plants, Plinkajou does not have the Plant Element. The same can be said about Clavi Gnat, Hawlo, and Tuskski.
- Despite having Kinkajou in its name, the way Plinkajou plays its song references a natural instinct of cats, which is batting at and playing with string.
- According to Ultimate Creator Quinn, Hyehehe's closest living relative (of discovered Monster species) is Plinkajou.
- Plinkajou and Carillong have some similarities:
- They share the same pemade SoundFont.
- Their Italian names are both named after the carillon, despite neither of them playing it.
- They are both reddish creatures who use their long tails when making music.
- Plinkajou and Uuduk were the first Magical Monsters to receive costumes.
- Being the Quad-Elemental of Bone Island, Plinkajou represents the Bone Element most prominently in its appearance.
