Tips to Defeat Moldy Slooch
Checkmark Step 1: Attack With White Pikmin From Its Back Side
Checkmark Step 2: Equip Oatchi With Sniff Saver

Attack With White Pikmin From Its Back Side

Before engaging Moldy Slooch, be sure to have White Pikmin on your lineup. Then position yourself on this enemy's back side and send all of them to attack. White Pikmin have immunity to toxic environments, so they can safely bypass Moldy Slooch's toxic clouds.

Attacking From the Front Side Will Get Your Pikmin Eaten

Moldy Slooch's front side is free from toxicity, so attacking here with any other Pikmin other than White can also defeat it. However, sending Pikmin here will open up the risk of them getting eaten, so it's best to have White Pikmin with you and focus on the back side.

Equip Oatchi With Sniff Saver

DalmoDalmo's Log Slugga slugga choo choo! Here comes the fungal spore train. The miasma emitting from the fungus on its 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!
OlimarOlimar's Log 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.
Once the host body ceases to function, it can no longer serve as a fungal-culture medium because its bodily fluids dry up and the corpus shrinks. At that point, the host body is abandoned.
LouieLouie's Log 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.
