'''Toady Bloysters''' ({{j|ツブラメケメクジ|Tsubura Me Kemekuji|Cute-eyed Kemekuji}}) are slug-like creatures found in {{p2}}, {{p3}}, and {{p4}}. They 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, a Bloyster is 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 the Bloyster the chance.

Its weak spot is a gill-like organ on its back. Although its body can be attacked for lesser damage in ''Pikmin 3'', in the previous game, only the bulb can be attacked (even though it's possible to attack the body using [[Purple Pikmin]]). When it 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'', it has seven distinct tentacles, whereas in the sequel, it has one that splits into six.
Gill-like organ 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''.

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]].
