The Marshy Wollytoad is a boss variant of the Yellow Wollywog appearing in Pikmin: Elemental Speciation. It has dark green skin with a brown pattern that fades into spots on its belly and the top of its head. It attacks by jumping high up into the air, and dropping down to crush Pikmin. Its landing spot can only be detected by observing its shadow and the tiny water droplets falling from its body. When it does so, it randomly launches a few water droplets that can drown Pikmin they hit. It can also eat Pikmin in front of it with its sticky tongue.
This creature's scientific name is derived from palus, the Latin word for swamp, and venter, the Latin word for belly or stomach.
Notes
Olimar's notes
- “This creature lives in damp underground caverns to escape the desert heat and only comes up seldom during rain storms to collect water in its massive body to bring into its cave system. Its massive body can store large amounts of water like a sponge. Its nests create entire ecosystems where typically swamp-dwelling animals can live.”
Louie's notes
- “It may seem daunting to cook such a massive mound of muscle, but if you leave it to dry for a few days, or just vigorously hammer it the same way you'd tenderize lesser meat, you'll find it is mostly liquid. And you'll want to take care of all that water first too, as not only does it provide a health hazard but also gives the meat a muddy aftertaste. But, once you've squeezed the water out, you'll find that, like a sponge, you can replace the liquid with something else, like gravy or other meat juices. A prime steak from one of these hoppers is an amazing main course for a pot roast, as long as you use plenty of sauce.”
Shacho's notes
- “By studying the internal makeup of this creature's skin, we could make some very efficient water-storage containers. We could simply drop one in a water body, and it'd be full of clean, drinkable water within minutes, and you could carry it around with little fear of evaporation either.”
