Hypnotized Bandicoots are bandicoots wearing green shorts that have been hypnotized by Cortex in Crash Bandicoot: Mutant Island. When Crash encounters one, it will attack him. After hitting the bandicoot a certain number of times, it will become de-hypnotized and become friendly and then disappear in a white flash. It is unknown as to how or why they were created. It is possible that they were evolved by the Evolvo-Ray.
