Because this subject has no official name, the name "Mushroom Pikmin" is conjectural. |
Mushroom Pikmin, also known as Zombie Pikmin and Toadmin, are Pikmin that are under the control of a Puffstool. This species is found only in Pikmin 1, and so are the Mushroom Pikmin. The spores of a Puffstool causes Pikmin to morph into a strange form, a process sometimes called "zombification". These Pikmin are purple, and have a black mouth with white pupiless eyes and an orange-brown mushroom on their head rather than a flower, bud, or leaf. They follow Captain Olimar and attack him until he shakes them off or loses all of his health. If Captain Olimar is not being attacked, you can usally find them dancing around the Puffstool. These Pikmin will also attack normal Pikmin and vice-versa, but as they can both be killed, this attacking will simply decrease your overall population. Mushroom Pikmin will eventually turn back into their normal forms after a while.
