In ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' | In ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', Kamek's Toadies appear to kidnap and carry [[Baby Mario]] away if [[Countdown Timer|star power]] runs out. They can appear virtually anywhere if the timer depletes completely, including [[Froggy]]'s stomach. In the final boss battle, it is possible for [[Yoshi]] to shoot down Kamek's Toadies with [[Yoshi's Egg|eggs]] if they are thrown directly upward. One of Kamek's Toadies also appears on a card in the mini-game [[Scratch and Match (minigame)|Scratch and Match]], which is featured as a bonus challenge. | ||

In ''[[Yoshi Touch & Go]]'', Yoshi must stop Kamek's Toadies from stealing [[Baby Luigi]] in Time Attack mode by throwing eggs at them. The four of Kamek's Toadies (each of which has two hit points, giving the group a total of eight) carry Baby Luigi at the top of the screen, shielded by a group of many purple Toadies that can each absorb one hit. If Yoshi manages to break through the purple Toadies and defeat Kamek's Toadies before the time runs out, he can save Baby Luigi. | |||

Serving Kamek, who has traveled back in time, the Toadies kidnap babies from all over the [[Mushroom Kingdom]], including Baby Mario and [[Baby Peach]]. However, the latter two's captors are attacked by the [[Stork]], who saves them from being kidnapped. At the end of the game, they carry the unconscious [[Bowser]] away. Additionally, their role in Scratch and Match returns. | ||

In this comic, the Toadies look different from their appearance in the games: their actual eyes and pupils are visible behind their glasses, rather than just the spiral form, their characteristic teeth are missing, they wear armor with round short sleeves instead of their usual robes and they possess fingers. The number of Toadies present seemingly fluctuates between panels, with most having four or less but one having seven. | In this comic, the Toadies look different from their appearance in the games: their actual eyes and pupils are visible behind their glasses, rather than just the spiral form, their characteristic teeth are missing, they wear armor with round short sleeves instead of their usual robes and they possess fingers.
