The '''Mudpuppy''' is a species of medium-sized [[Beasthound family|beasthound]] appearing in [[Pikmin Evolution]]. Like all members of that family it takes the form of a two-legged canine-like creature, but the main differentiation between the Mudpuppy and other members of its species is the fact that the fur of this canine is brown, wet, and dirty. The Mudpuppy also has glowing yellow eyes, orange hooked fangs, and have a face resembling that of a real-life {{w|pug}}. The Mudpuppy is a swamp-dwelling beasthound who often gets mistaken for a pile of soggy [[mud]], however attempting to dig through said mud will wake the creature up and startle it. The Mudpuppy is quite the curious hound, often staring playfully at your captains as if they are little chew toys. The Mudpuppy often will use its mouth to pick up and swallow one of your captains, trapping them inside of its belly, requiring you to attack the creature to free your captain. The Mudpuppy gets its name from the fact that its pelt constantly scatters mud when it moves, which provides several abilities for the Mudpuppy. Firstly the muddy pelt it has prevents your [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] from attacking its body, meaning you can only damage it via attacking its face, which both deals reduced damage and leaves them vulnerable to being eaten if they land in the Mudpuppy's mouth. Another ability the mud gives the Mudpuppy is the ability to bury Pikmin with the mud it launches from its pelt. The Mudpuppy in particular makes this mud scattering ability a deadly attack as it is also one of the few creatures capable of eating buried Pikmin, as it will use its hooked fangs to pluck and eat any buried Pikmin it comes across.

However after a while the Mudpuppy will howl, causing intense [[panic]] which is the perfect distraction for it to dig into the ground and re-apply its muddy body, leaving you back to where you started. If you lack water, a good [[explosion]] to the gut is a good tactic as well against it, using a volatile orange [[syrup]] you are able to feed that substance to the Mudpuppy, causing internal distress that creates blast powerful enough to knock all the mud off its body and flip it over, leaving its belly easier to attack, however be careful if a captain is trapped within as the blast from the explosion will deal heavy damage to the captain. Really the best course of action is to use situational awareness when fighting the Mudpuppy, as sometimes the best course of action is dictated by the scenario this dog puts you through.
