How to Beat Toxstool

Steps to Beat Toxstool
Checkmark Step 1: It Will Revive Any of the Mold You Cleared
Checkmark Step 2: Eliminate It as Soon as You Can

It Will Revive Any of the Mold You Cleared

There will be a lot of mold and moldy enemies in this area. However, it will be useless to clear it; Toxstool will just come over the spot you cleared and revive the mold. Do not prioritize clearing the area.

Eliminate It as Soon as You Can

Instead, use Rush on Toxstool and try and eliminate it as quick as you can. We recommend a combination of Red Pikmin, Ice Pikmin, and White Pikmin to get in as much damage as possible while also staying safe from the toxicity of the area.

DalmoDalmo's Log See how it toddles and bounces on its wee little footsies as it goes for a stroll, scattering extremely toxic spores along the way? This creature is a walking nuisance. But there's an odd kind of charm in that bothersome nature that makes it hard to leave alone.
OlimarOlimar's Log Much like the Puffstool, the Toxstool is neither animal nor fungus but a mix of the two, or an Ambulofungus. It doesn't serve a producer or consumer role in the ecosystem, but functions instead as a decomposer.
It primarily parasitizes other living organisms by blanketing them with its spores. However, the Toxstool ca infect a deceased specimen as well. Its hyphae is able to move the muscles and control the body as if bringing it back from the dead.
The way the fungal filaments grow differs based on the host organism. In some cases, they may cause the hosts to wander around in search of food to facilitate a more nutrient- rich fungal-culture medium. They can also just use the host as a means to scatter more spores.
LouieLouie's Log Bury underground for about 40 days so the poison can leech out. Its smell will make you gag, but the flavor has notes of chocolate!
