    What is up with Toads? It's been a while since we talked about our favorite... people? Mushrooms? Screaming song meme generators? I think that means they deserve a deep dive into what EXACTLY is a Toad and how they do whatever it is Toads do. Theorists, let's go!

    I actually have a theory that Toadette is a special species of Toad, and the only species capable of becoming a Princess Toadstool. Yes, I'm claiming that Peach was in fact once a Toadette before claiming the crown and evolving into a Princess Toadstool. Just look at Peachette for example.

    It makes more sense with Todette being another species of mushrom than Toad is.

Such hybrid fungi may be a threat to agriculture. Less than 500 years ago fungus spores of two different varieties of fungus met and produced offspring.’

      Toad with hair is not too uncommon so Toadette is probably just one particular Toad. I mean its not too surprising for Toads to name themselves.

    • @hencethebeetroot
      @hencethebeetroot 2 роки тому +20

      @@UltraAryan10 Toadettes have other differences though: the ponytails - which notably appear to be made of the same material as their cap instead of the more human-like hair seen on Toads - and their color scheme (which is a color with white spots, as opposed to white with colored spots). They're not drastic differences, but they're differences nonetheless, leading me to believe that Toads and Toadettes are related, but still distinct, species.

    • @Lectrikfro
      @Lectrikfro 2 роки тому +19

      The cap being colored with white spots instead of white with colored spots is even the reason MatPat cited for toads not being the same species as the super mushroom. Why did he suddenly not apply the same criteria to toadette and toad

    I loved this theory, although there was something overlooked! In the "New Super Mario Bros." games, when a Toad is damaged, their spots reverse. For example, a standard Toad's head is white with red spots, but when damaged, or "small", their head changes to red with white spots. The end result is a Toad looking much like a Super Mushroom!

    And to add on to that, Toads don't always stay as one color. In Paper Mario: The Origami King, somewhere along Picnic Road (IIRC), there is a pile of leaves where you can find a Toad. If you talk to him, he would complain that because he was in the leaves for too long, his colors changes. This means, if color (and, as some others have pointed out, patterns) denote a mating type, it means Toads are VERY type-fluid. Now I'm sure it was played up for laughs but that could show more aspects of Mushroom Kingdom society.

    as a mushroom nerd, the bleeding tooth fungus was my first choice for toad, because, as you mentioned, red w/ white spots and white w/ red spots is a very important distinction when speaking about mushrooms. I assumed the twist was going to be that toad and toadette aren't the same species, given that toadette is (colour) with white spots and toad is whit with (Colour) spots. they're incompatible, they're different mushrooms. lowkey disappointed this wasn't mentioned. :/

      I think he emphasized the bleeding tooth fungus as this was the original design for toad(s) and was hoping to find property basics for the species, rather than assert that every toad, despite being identical in almost any way, is completely different. Red toads are shown to have children with blue toads in canon, etc, so this may be the reason he didn't go down that route.
