They creep along the ground in search of food, and upon discovering [[Pikmin (Species)|Pikmin]], they emit a loud call reminiscent to that of a cow calf, then lash out with 7 adhesive pseudopodia-like tentacles (in ''Pikmin 2''). Any Pikmin hit by the tentacles stick, and are ingested if the Bloyster is not killed before it can finish "chewing." As slow as they may be, a Bloyster is capable of causing a very large and sudden drop in the number of Pikmin a [[Captain]] has at his/her disposal, should the player be careless enough to allow the Bloyster the chance. | ||
A single Toady Bloyster spawns in the [[Perplexing Pool]], and tends to roam around the shallows near the entrance to the [[Shower Room]]. When defeated, it drops one or two randomly colored [[Pellet|10-Pellets]] in addition to the gill-like organ on its back, which propagates 25 Pikmin at any [[Onion]]. Entering any of the [[cave]]s in the Perplexing Pool will trigger a respawn, making this Bloyster a particularly low-risk method of spawning large amounts of Pikmin in a short amount of time, potentially 45 Pikmin per Bloyster defeated. | A single Toady Bloyster spawns in the [[Perplexing Pool]], and tends to roam around the shallows near the entrance to the [[Shower Room]].

The Toady Bloyster appears in ''[[Pikmin 3]].'' The tentacles have changed from being 7 seperate tentacles to being one tentacle that branches out into 6. Also, rather than shaking Pikmin off, it releases poison in this game. | The Toady Bloyster appears in ''[[Pikmin 3]].''

The best method of taking down a Toady Bloyster is simple; latch as many Pikmin as possible onto the gill-like organ protruding from its back. If a Captain is feeling bold, they may instead decide to simply barrage the Bloyster in question with [[Purple Pikmin]]. Petrifying the Bloyster and following the petrification with a headlong assault works just as effectively as either of the two aforementioned methods, but is only recommended if a Captain's Pikmin count is especially low or if a Captain wishes to minimize any chances for casualties. | The best method of taking down a Toady Bloyster is simple; latch as many Pikmin as possible onto the gill-like organ protruding from its back.

In ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', the Toady Bloyster can be attacked by throwing Pikmin onto its bare, fleshy back instead of the gill-like protrusion on its back. Using an [[Ultra-spicy Spray]] proves to be effective as well. | In ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', the Toady Bloyster can be attacked by throwing Pikmin onto its bare, fleshy back instead of the gill-like protrusion on its back. If the Bloyster releases poison, just whistle the affected Pikmin back to you and continue the assault. Using an [[Ultra-spicy Spray]] proves to be effective as well. | ||
