In Pikmin Evolution
The Toxcap is a small species of Sporovid appearing in Pikmin Evolution. It is a small and less developed version of the Toxstool, and as such shares the coloration and cap shape of its older variant. However it lacks legs, instead hopping on its step and using its cap like a springboard to reach higher areas. The Toxcap is usually found in two different places, that being in damp areas often deep underground, or sprouting from the spore clumps of several enemies infected with the mold of the Toxstool. These enemies are of the smaller variety as they are unable to support the size of a regular Toxstool. Having a Toxcap sprout from the backs of enemies such as the Dwarf Moldy Bulborb is quite a painful looking process, and the enemy dies instantly upon their bodies sprouting this Sporovid. The Toxcap gangs together with its fellow Toxcaps and the occasional Toxstool to guide them, jumping around and spreading clouds of mold to cover the ground in. When the Toxcap flips over they release a small bit of mold that grows into a larger clump if not dealt with soon enough with Roach Pikmin. The Toxcap's green spore clouds are highly toxic, meaning any Pikmin who enters it will instantly die from the fumes, unless they are the poison-immune Roach Pikmin, meaning they are the best types to attack the Toxcap. The Toxcap is unable to defend itself otherwise from Roach Pikmin unlike its larger cousin, aside from scattering the Roach Pikmin by flipping over itself. Since htey also lack health this means once you have Roach Pikmin, the Toxcap is defensless. However be careful as the Toxcap has an ace up its sleeves, when left alone nearby a clump of mold the Toxcap will absorb it growing in size to a mature Toxstool, so you need to balance defeating the Toxcaps and dealing with the mold clumps to prevent that from happening. Overall while not as dangerous as the Toxstool, the Toxcap can be a major threat on its own if given the chance.
