The '''Puffstool''' ({{j|ボケナメコ| | The '''Puffstool''' ({{j|ボケナメコ| 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 will try to run when attacked, but due to its stumpy legs clearly not being made for sprinting, 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. | The Puffstool will try to run when attacked, but due to its stumpy legs clearly not being made for sprinting, it trips easily, landing on its head with its feet in the air.

In ''Pikmin 4'', a poisonous relative to the Puffstool named the [[Toxstool]] was introduced that, while possessing some differences in its coloration and behavior, mostly shares the same general physical characteristics and behavior to that of the Puffstool. | In ''Pikmin 4'', a poisonous relative to the Puffstool named the [[Toxstool]] was introduced that, while possessing some differences in its coloration and behavior, mostly shares the same general physical characteristics and behavior to that of the Puffstool. | ||

{{transcript|Red sporovids seem to have developed higher functions than other fungi, as evidenced by the protruding reproductive organs on their caps. These organs act much like a flower would on a normal plant. This species appears to be able to separate for a short time from the fungal colony to which it belongs. This occurs when the mushroom cap has reached a certain size and the spore sac is full. It will then sever its connection to the colony to walk around a limited area to spread the spores. This walking form can no longer absorb nutrients from the colony, but if the released spores contact another living creature, spore-encased fungal filaments will begin an explosive cycle of reproduction within the host, taking over its central nervous system. The host will be controlled by the red sporovid within its area of activity. Edible, considered a delicacy. Referred to as "punchstool" in some locales.}} | {{transcript|Red sporovids seem to have developed higher functions than other fungi, as evidenced by the protruding reproductive organs on their caps.

|scientific = ''Fungirussus elasticis''. ''Fungirussus'' is a combination of “fungi” and ''russus'', Latin for red. ''Elasticis'' refers to the creature’s elastic cap. [[Canon#Debatable_canon|Unofficially]], in the ''Pikmin'' Player’s Guide, its scientific name is ''Aspergilla podronis''. ''Podronis'' may refer to the pods some fungus releases through gases, much like the Puffstool does to infect Pikmin. | |scientific = ''Fungirussus elasticis''.
