The '''Puffstool''' <span style="line-height:20px;">(ボケナメコ </span><span style="line-height:20px;">"Bonenameko"</span><span style="line-height:20px;">) </span>is a [[boss]] in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'' that appears to be a huge type of walking fungus. It has twin antennae, a red-capped mushroom head, and a tender yellow torso which is vulnerable to swarming. Only minimal details of the creature's biology of the game are supplied. The Puffstool is one of the enemies with which the [[Glitches#Crushing|crushing glitch]] happens fairly regularly, with the frequency increased in the [[New Play Control! Pikmin|Wii version of the game]]. | The '''Puffstool''' <span style="line-height:20px;">(ボケナメコ </span><span style="line-height:20px;">"Bonenameko"</span><span style="line-height:20px;">) </span>is a [[boss]] in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'' that appears to be a huge type of walking fungus.

The Puffstool will try to run when swarmed, but its legs are clearly not made for sprinting and it trips easily, landing on its head with feet in the air. Since the cap is invulnerable to attack, [[Pikmin (species)|Pikmin]] should be thrown onto its under-section once it is 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 [[Captain]] for. Affected Pikmin turn into [[Mushroom Pikmin]], which are purple and have small brown mushroom caps on their stalks. | The Puffstool will try to run when swarmed, but its legs are clearly not made for sprinting and it trips easily, landing on its head with feet in the air.
