In Pikmin: Spark
The Mushstool is a species of sporovid appearing in Pikmin: Spark. They have a deep blue body with a fleshy cap rounder than those of their brethren. They dwell in damp dens, where they can scatter their sludgy spores freely. When spotting intruders, they spit from their mouthlike orifice balls of sticky slime that slows anything stepping on it. However, the Mushstool's signature ability is to create Piklones, hostile Pikmin-like creatures that assist the creature in hunting. One Piklone is created for every five Pikmin present, and when alone, each time a Piklone is defeated. Piklones attack anything nearby and bring the remains to the Mushstool for it to consume to regain a large amount of health, making them a significant threat. Goo Pikmin are a good choice as the soft body of the Mushstool is weak to explosives and the adhesive can be ignored by their slimy bodies. Upon death they drop the Zesty Capsule, a container of paprika worth.

In Ultra-Spicy Mode, Mushstools create two Piklones, rather than one, for every five Pikmin on the field. Additionally, they recall Pikclones that are suffering from a hazard.
