The '''Puffstool''' ({{j|ボケナメコ| Boke Nameko|Stupid {{w|Pholiota nameko|Nameko}}}}) is an enemy in {{p1}} and {{p4}} that appears to be a huge walking fungus, strongly resembling a red-capped bolete. It has twin antennae, a red-capped mushroom head, and a tender yellow torso which is vulnerable to [[Group move|swarming]]. Only minimal details of the creature's biology are supplied in-game. | The '''Puffstool''' ({{j|ボケナメコ| Boke Nameko|Stupid {{w|Pholiota nameko|Nameko}}}}) is an enemy in {{p1}} and {{p4}} that appears to be a huge walking fungus, strongly resembling a red-capped bolete.

The Puffstool will try to run when attacked, but | The Puffstool will try to run when attacked, but its legs are clearly not made for sprinting, and it trips easily, landing on its head with its feet in the air. Since the cap is invulnerable to [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] attacks (but not Olimar's [[punch]]), one must [[throw]] the Pikmin onto its undersection once it's on the ground. After a few seconds, the Puffstool will right itself up and blow out a purplish cloud of spores which cause a strange change in nearby Pikmin, which the Puffstool acts as a [[leader]] for. | ||
In the original ''Pikmin'', [[Mushroom Pikmin|affected Pikmin]] turn purple, grow small brown mushroom caps on their stalks, and become aggressive. In ''Pikmin 4'', while the Puffstool cannot affect Pikmin in the same way as before, it can still [[Confusion|confuse]] Pikmin with its spores and cause them to jump around aimlessly (similar to the effects of the chemicals expelled by the [[Groovy Long Legs]]). | In the original ''Pikmin'', [[Mushroom Pikmin|affected Pikmin]] turn purple, grow small brown mushroom caps on their stalks, and become aggressive.
