The Moldy Slooch is a Pyroclasmic Slooch that has been infested by fungal spores coming from a Toxstool. It's appearance is similar to the aforementioned Pyroclasmic Slooch, but has a blue-green colouring instead, and has large bulbs of blue-green mold growing on it's back.
Notes[]
Dalmo’s Notes[]
"Slugga slugga choo choo! Here comes the fungal spore train. The miasma emitting from the fungus on it's back has Toxstool spores in it. If you must observe it, do so from as far away as possible, or risk ending up as a fungal choo choo too!"
Olimar’s Notes[]
"Both the nervous system and slime-producing organ of this specimen have been invaded by fungal filaments, which is why it scatters spores as it moves. It will also shake spores onto other creatures, thus infecting new hosts and expanding the Toxstool's habitat and range."
Louie’s Notes[]
"After removing the poison, the broth is fragrant and savory. Don't drink too much, or you'll find yourself with a crippling tummy ache."
Battle Strategy[]
If fighting this creature you'll want to fight with using White or Glow Pikmin. You'll want to position yourself so the large clump of spores is not obstructed by the Slooch's large eyestalks. Throwing Pikmin now would be best to do so at this moment. This will stun the Slooch but also release toxic spores. Keep on throwing until the Slooch is defeated. Charging with Winged Pikmin is a good secondary strategy if the previous is not optimal. This creature isn't particularly dangerous but can be a nuisance if it poisons lots of Pikmin.
