Dreamcap Captain

Dreamcap Captains are purple, supposedly layered Capnap-like creatures that appear in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team. In the field, Dreamcap Captains wander around aimlessly if undisturbed, and charge at Mario and Dreamy Luigi upon sight.

In battle, Dreamcap Captains and Dreamcaps fight in together in hordes. If the player defeats all the Dreamcap Captains in the Dreamcap group, the Dreamcaps will huddle together and one will run away with each turn. If all Dreamcaps are defeated and any Dreamcap Captains remain, they will summon several more Dreamcaps to then be able to attack.

They may attack from the background, charging towards Mario in rows, all of which Mario must jump over to avoid the attack, or with precise timing, can land on the Dreamcap (Captain) that's lined up with him. The group may also just charge towards Mario as a whole, which Mario must jump on or over to avoid the attack, or if there's a safe opening in the Dreamcap formation, Mario can also step in line with the opening to avoid the attack.

A stronger version of Dreamcap Captains called Dreamcap Captain Rs appear later on in the game. Additionally, Dreamcap Captains sustain critical damage from the Luiginary Flame Luiginary Attack.
