Toadies are a small Magikoopa variant from the Yoshi's Island series, in which they first appear in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. There is a specific group of four Toadies who work for Kamek, aptly named Kamek's Toadies, and they are his main minions.

Physical description[]

Toadies are typically seen wearing a red robe-like outfit akin to a Shy Guy's and glasses similar to that of Kamek's. Toadies fly around using the propeller on their head.

In the Yoshi franchise[]

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island[]

Though regular Toady species do not appear aside from Kamek's Toadies, there are two Toady variants featured as enemies, Green Toadies and Solo Toadies.

Yoshi's Story[]

Toadies also appeared in the Nintendo 64 game Yoshi's Story. Here, if a Yoshi lost all of its lives, the Toadies would carry that Yoshi back to Bowser's Castle. This similarly occurs in the Game Boy Advance tech demo Yoshi Demo.

In the Mario Party series[]

Toadies have not played a big role in the Mario Party, and were only introduced to the series in Mario Party 5. They have only served as a capsule and an orb in the series, and they also hosted an Item Shop on one of the board maps.

In Mario Party 5, Toady appears as a collectible capsule that is mislabeled as the Magikoopa Capsule. The character that takes the role of the Magikoopa Capsule is, in fact, a Toady. In this game, Toady would appear over a character's head and force them to trade capsules with another character that is chosen by a roulette wheel. The character that the wheel stops on is the opponent that they will be forced to trade their capsules with.

Toady appears as an orb in Mario Party 6, where its role has slightly changed. When an opponent lands on a trap space that contains a Toady Orb, Toady will appear and take a random orb from them and gives it to the owner of the trap space.

In Mario Party 8, Toady appears as the host of the Item Shops in Bowser's Warped Orbit.

Trivia[]

  • Fawful is a self-described "Toady", but this is in the literal sense of the word (a synonym for "underling") since he is clearly not a member of this species. His glasses and cloak do strongly resemble those worn by a genuine Toady, however.
  • Two other variations of Toadies exist in Yoshi's Island; one purple and one green. They are known as "Solo Toadies". The purple one is normally seen in levels that do not have very many ways of accessing Baby Mario when he falls off Yoshi's back (such as levels situated in high locations), holding him in a specific position until Yoshi gets him back. The green one acts somewhat like a Bandit, snatching Baby Mario as soon as it touches Yoshi and flying off with it until Yoshi gets him back. Both versions have much larger shoes than the normal versions of the species for some reason.
