'''Toady | The '''Toady Bloyster''' ({{j|ツブラメケメクジ|Tsubura Me Kemekuji|Cute-eyed Kemekuji}}) is a slug-like creature found in {{p2}}, {{p3}}, and {{p4}}. Toady Bloysters creep along the ground in search of food, and upon discovering [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], they emit a loud call reminiscent to that of a cow calf, then lash out their pseudopodia-like tentacles. 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, Bloysters are capable of causing a very large and sudden drop in the number of Pikmin a [[leader]] has at their disposal, should the player be careless enough to allow them the chance. | ||
Gill-like organs can be found on their backs, acting as weak spots. Although their bodies can be attacked for lesser damage in ''Pikmin 3'', in the previous game, only the bulbs can be attacked (even though it's possible to attack their bodies using [[Purple Pikmin]]). When one receives heavy damage, it shakes its tail and throws away any Pikmin hanging on to it in ''Pikmin 2'', but merely ejects ink in ''Pikmin 3''. This ink can temporarily and non-fatally choke any nearby Pikmin, but those hanging on the bulb will not be affected. In ''Pikmin 2'', they have seven distinct tentacles, whereas in the sequel, they have one that splits into six. | |||
In ''Pikmin 2'', a single Toady Bloyster spawns in the [[Perplexing Pool]], and tends to rove around the shallows near the entrance to the [[Shower Room]]. When defeated, it typically drops two [[Pellet|10-Pellets]] in addition to the gill-like organ on its back, which is worth 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. In [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|Challenge Mode]], a Toady Bloyster holds [[The Key]] on the first sublevel in [[The Giant's Bath]]. In ''Pikmin 3'''s Story Mode, one appears in the [[Garden of Hope]], and one in the [[Twilight River]]. | In ''Pikmin 2'', a single Toady Bloyster spawns in the [[Perplexing Pool]], and tends to rove around the shallows near the entrance to the [[Shower Room]].

{{transcript| | |||
An amphibious mollusk with a large flowerlike gill. The eyes do not protrude as much as in other members of the Mollusking family, which have lost their shells in the course of evolution. It is hermaphroditic, meaning that a single individual has both male and female reproductive organs. | |||
Feature #1: Long, slender tongue | |||
:When it detects the scent of its prey, it uses its six-branched, long, slender tongue to feed on a large number of prey at once. | |||
:(Image text: "The tips of the tongue are contracted before branching") | |||
Feature #2: Squirting ink | |||
:When it is attacked by an enemy and feels threatened, it squirts ink from its body. | |||

The best method of taking down a Toady Bloyster is simple: approach it from the back and latch as many Pikmin as possible onto the gill-like organ protruding from its back. If you are feeling bold, you may instead decide to simply barrage the Bloyster in question with [[Purple Pikmin]]. Petrifying the Bloyster | The best method of taking down a Toady Bloyster is simple: approach it from the back and latch as many Pikmin as possible onto the gill-like organ protruding from its back. If you are feeling bold, you may instead decide to simply barrage the Bloyster in question with [[Purple Pikmin]]. Petrifying the Bloyster is a foolish task, as it shares the highest bitter-Spray damage resistance in the game with the Ranging Bloyster. Toady Bloysters do not actively seek out Pikmin, but they will not pass up the opportunity to eat Pikmin standing in front of them. While they have slow reaction time, their shake has a deceptively large hitbox, and Pikmin are shaken off when the Bloyster finishes its tongue lash animation. Caution must be taken to not let it attack while on low health, as it will not stop its attack animation when it reaches zero health, and it cannot be petrified when it reaches zero health as well. | ||

It can be noted that the Toady Bloyster found in at least [[Silver Lake]] and [[Shaded Garden]] on [[Battle enemies!]] mode are significantly weaker than the average one. | It can be noted that the Toady Bloyster found in at least [[Silver Lake]] and [[Shaded Garden]] on [[Battle enemies!]] mode are significantly weaker than the average one. | ||

Toady Bloysters can be dealt with in much the same way as in [[Pikmin 3]]. Simply throw Pikmin on its tail-based gill organ and they won't be affected by the ink that the bloyster sprays out. It can still be defeated through attacking the main body but the tail method is generally considered the fastest and easiest way to beat them. The Toady Bloyster may be quite slow in terms of movement and eating, but it's tentacle-like tounge can grab many Pikmin at once. As such, it is usually a very bad idea to charge the bloyster from the front. | |||

Even though the body becomes very small, it's still possible to see in-game, using the closest zoom settings or the [[KopPad]]'s camera. The same happens with the [[Ranging Bloyster]], [[Burrowing Snagret]] (only in ''Pikmin 2''), and [[Pileated Snagret]]. | ||
