Yoyo (Japanese: ヨヨ) is a character in the 1996 video game Bahamut Lagoon. She was designed by Motomu Toriyama, and can be named along with the protagonist, Byuu. The game follows her story as the princess of the land of Kahna, particularly managing her kingdom, dealing with the opposing Granbelow Empire, and her romance with the empire's General Palpaleos. Her romance was a contentious thing for some players of the game, who were upset that she fell for the general instead of Byuu, partly due to some of these players naming her after a girl they liked. This led to her being labelled by these players as one of "Square's Three Big Bad Women", which writer Kurt Kalata speculated was because the people upset were in school at the time.
