Toad (species): Difference between revisions

While the Toads are often shown to be fleeing at the first sign of danger during the games, some situations prove that they are more than capable of protecting themselves during battle. In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' (the first game that has a Toad as a playable character), Toad is revealed to be even stronger than the Mario brothers themselves and he is also shown to be very speedy as well. The ''Mario Baseball'' games also prove the strength of the playable Toads as they are shown to be considerably powerful, despite their size. The Mario soccer games also have the Toads being able to use powerful head butts as an offensive attack, a trait further emphasized in ''Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon'' and ''Luigi's Mansion 3'', where they are shown to be quite durable, capable of surviving a throw into walls or breakable objects (often head-first) without sustaining any injuries. Additionally, the Toads are capable of performing a fiery and powerful [[skillshot]] known as the [[Fire Meteor]] in ''[[Mario Strikers Charged]]''. In ''[[Mario Sports Mix]]'', Toad's strongest stat was his speed while his power and technique stats were slightly below average. Additionally, Toad is capable of using his spores to creating a reflective shield as well as gargantuan mushrooms that Toad is capable of controlling to attack opponents for his special move. These attributes are also present for Toad's alternate colorations.
