Talk:Toad

From the article: Toad also appeared in Super Mario 64/DS, giving Mario & company tips for findig secret stages, like the one in the mirror room and sometimes giving stars too.
 * Are the Toads in Super Mario 64 the Toad. I was under the impression that they were all generic Toads working in the castle. --Son of Suns 21:20, 21 June 2006 (EDT)
 * Especially since two toads appear at the end beside Peach, you have a point. -Wayoshi 21:26, 21 June 2006 (EDT)
 * And I think in the second floor hallway there are two Toads...if you move the camera, you can see both of them on the screen. --Son of Suns 21:34, 21 June 2006 (EDT)

Yes you can..... H K

I don't think that it should assume that one of the Toads is the Toad the article is about in the Super Mario 64/DS section. It sounds like a POV phrase to me. Toadette 4evur 20:40, 30 January 2008 (EST)

Soccer Look
Could someone that has Super Mario Strikers please put a picture up of Toad in it.


 * Only Toads (the species) appear in Super Mario Strikers, as sidekicks. Toad does not appear. Cobold 09:52, 10 February 2007 (EST)

Is Toad princess Peach's brother?
I thought Toad was peach's brother in the super mario bros super show. This could be truth, because in the multiplayer mode of mario party 5 a special group name appears if two players cooperate. Peach and Toad get the group name "ROYAL FAMILY"!!! and peach has a toad-like grandma in Mario RPG (snes). shocking???

.... When you pair-up Luigi and Yoshi in Mario Party 5, it calls them the Green Bros., that doesn't mean there family. Also, please use the forum for comments like that. -- Sir Grodus
 * I'm watching the show, but I haven't come across evidence for that yet. I think he's just her hired protector who became a close friend in that show.  He's very dedicated, though.  15:05, 29 December 2007 (EST)

Sir Grodus is right! "Royal Family" doesn't mean their brothers and sisters! They'd call it "Royal Family" 'cause Toad is protecting Princess Toadstool and also the Mushroom Kingdom! And Toad always comes with Peach when Peach decides if she can go with Mario and Luigi! Nothing means their brothers and sisters!!!--Smarty-jamjam 21:25, 6 May 2009 (EDT)

SMS
In Super Mario Sunshine, the instruction book labels the red-capped Toad as "Toad" shuold this be mentioned. - Ultimatetoad 18:05, 8 March 2007 (EST)

Hello? - Ultimatetoad 18:57, 8 March 2007 (EST)

Indeed it does. Maybe it is THE Toad, but I'm not 100% sure. 20:25, 9 March 2007 (EST)

Well, I almost am. The Toad looks like him, and is called him. I see no need for further evidence. - Ultimatetoad
 * The Toad labelled as "Toad" in the Sunshine Manual has a red mushroom cap and red clothing, while regularly Toad wears blue. The Toads in Sunshine behave really childish (talk to them in the first scene of the game), so I think it is a mistake in the manual. - Cobold

I always thought Toad WAS chiildish. - Ultimatetoad

Toad is the label for all the Toads. It doesn't mean it's the Toad. The manual even says in the story, "Mario, Peach, and an entourage of Toads have come to Isle Delfino". It doesn't say Toad came, Toads came. Also note that it labels the Pianta and the Noki "Pianta" and "Noki". It says in in the singular, even though there is more than one of each. The "Toad" label just means a Toad. -- Son of Suns
 * Alot of Toads are named Toad. Toadette 4evur 20:44, 30 January 2008 (EST)

I just noticed something. In the intro of Mario Superstar Baseball, the same red Toad congratulates Mario along with Peach, Daisy, and Yoshi on his victory against Wario. -- Klaus Kratchet

About the Pianta and Noki thing, in the manual's description of them it says "Isle Delfino Residents" in the plural form, but describes Toad as "Peach's attendant" in the singular form, so it isn't for the whole group, but that one Toad. I believe it is him. Like stated above, Toad has a red vest in Mario Superstar Baseball. --Toadster 04 22:01, 1 May 2008 (EDT)
 * Definately. Instruction booklets count as proof of course, so he was definately in Sunshine.  Baseball might be a bit of a stretch, but I would like to include at least a reference to that in the article...  23:01, 1 May 2008 (EDT)

Mushroom Retainer
According to the Mushroom Retainer article, SMRPG proves that Toad is one of the Mushroom Retainers. This would prove that he WAS in SMB and LL, If anyone has the game and can prove the articles statement, please tell me. I'm trying to end all these accursed continuity problems.Plllleeeeaseee tell me soon. - Ultimatetoad

hello? - Ultimatetoad

I always thought the Toad rescued before Princess Toadstool in Super Mario Bros. was Toad, but I dunno. The Toad first met in Luigi's Mansion is Toad, I'm practically sure of it. Yes, he is one of the eight Mushroom Retainers in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. -- Sir Grodus

The Mushroom retainers could change, meaning Toad got a different Toad's position. -- Son of Suns

Yes, but THAT seems even more far-fetched than saying he is a Mushroom Retainer. - Ultimatetoad


 * How so? Toad wasn't a character until Super Mario Bros. 2 (USA). -- Son of Suns

Hmmmm..... well, since there no proof, I'll put it in the generic appearences section. Also SoS, most continunuity problems are now solved; only Luigi's Mansion left. - Ultimatetoad

To say that he could have changed is very far fetched, and I know this discussion is old and probably not applicable, but I want to get this out in case the issue comes up again. We have no reason to believe that except what we may assume based on Earth positions of government. I know that some people do not view it as canon, but the Super Show gave Toad the role of the Princess's protector immeadiately following her rescue in Super Mario Bros. In other words, he would have been her protector before Bowser's invasion. Regardless of your opinion however, we can't say that just because Toad wasn't a character until SMB2 that he wouldn't be in SMB1. There are plenty of examples of retcon in the Mario series. 22:38, 30 January 2008 (EST)
 * Okay, it's an "alternate" canon source, as defined by some guy on the Wiki some time ago, but it's The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! episode "Trojan Koopa." After failing at saving Peach, Toad says, "Some Mushroom Retainer I turned out to be... I was so close! I couldn't save her..." So... he was a Mushroom Retainer then, during the events of Super Mario Bros. only if you consider the show and the games to be part of the same continuity.  Great...  22:02, 5 March 2008 (EST)

look here everybody it confirms that the Toad indeed does not appear until Super Mario Bros. 2 http://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/Q3TJhfvkUiLDeT6Brt3L2AyaWRCF0djg A Link to the Present 23:47, 17 February 2011 (EST)

There are other sources that state he appeared in Super Mario Bros. as well like the Smash trophies and spin-off game profiles. Additionally, the Japanese info for Wario's Woods never makes reference to what game Toad originated from. Propeller Toad

I don't get why you oppose the SMB quote, Ultimatetoad. That's classic. 17:20, 29 March 2007 (EDT)

Is Toad in Mario Pinball Land?
Since there are two pictures of him at the bottom, could somebody write about it in the biography section? I never played it or know anybody who has it.

Yeah, he's in it. He's in the movie at the beginning, and he runs the shops. But I'm not up to writing sections yet, and I don't have enough time these days.

Follow Toad
I'm beggining to think this is just Toad, is he actually refered to as "Follow Toad" or anything else? I haven't played the game in a while. -- Sir Grodus

Well, I don't have the game, but It looks like it to me. Will someone who has the game please answer? - Ultimatetoad


 * I have the game, and I'm near-positive he's never named. Considering that he's so close to Toadette and everything, and that he looks just like Toad, I think it's meant to be assumed that he is plain ol' Toad. --YellowYoshi398 10:10, 2 April 2007 (EDT)

Sooo... merge? - Ultimatetoad


 * Yeah. He's pretty much definitely Toad.

I don't think he's THE Toad, just a generic Toad. Don't hate me if I'm wrong, but there's no source confirming that the Follow Toad is THE Toad. Considering his role is very similiar to the Toad in Mario Party 2, I'm not sure. If the Toad in MP2 was THE Toad, it may prove that this Toad is THE Toad. Don't know where the name Follow Toad popped up either. Confused


 * To my knowledge, it doesn't say "Follow Toad" anywhere in the game, so I added the conjecture template. I do think that since they're so similar in their actions and role in the game, this Toad could be THE Toad. 23:52, 6 April 2007 (EDT)

He's never reffered to as "Follow Toad", he looks like Toad, theres nothing contradicting the fact that he's probably just Toad, who has hosted previous Mario Parties. -- Sir Grodus

Toad's Relationships To Other Characters
Something interesting I've noticed is that the team names in Mario Party 6 are used as evidence for character relationships for other character pairings, but interestingly, mentions of such evidence for Toad's (and Yoshi's, coincidentally) relationships aren't mentioned. Is there some reason that I'm not getting for this exclusion, or is it just that no one has added it yet? Dinosaur bob 12:09, 14 May 2007 (EDT)

Hotel Mario
I've been thinking about adding Hotel Mario information in the biography section, but I'm not too sure if the Toad that appear in that game is THE Toad or simply a generic ones. What are your ideas, guys? Gofer

I don't know- never played the game! Mostly what I came in here to comment on was that I can't believe there was no mention of how Super Mario Bros. 2 portrays the shroom-dude as stronger than Mario or Luigi, judging by how quickly he can pull things out of the ground, before I just added it! 20:40, 1 July 2007 (EDT)

Yeah, I saw footage, thats not Toad, that not even a Mushroom Person, its just an oddly named 1-Up. -- Sir Grodus
 * Really? So, he msut still count since he he is named Toad in the "inclosed instruction book."... do it?

Gofer


 * I think in the interest of making things less confusing, we should stick with what's recognizable instead. We're not going to make a new page called "Skeleton Koopa," we'll just consider it Dry Bones. We have no idea what a Mini Ninji is, so let's list it in the Ninji section. Truth is, a lot of the things were misnamed in the enclosed instruction book... Banzai Bill should have been Bullet Bill. The only remotely new enemy character (outside of a Goomba and Koopa Troopa in wardrobe) is Pat the Bat, which basically functions like a Swooper anyway. There's an excellent in-depth Hotel Mario review here, before it became a YouTube icon: http://www.goodtimeretrocafe.com/cdi/hmario.html LinkTheLefty 23:11, 26 April 2010 (EDT)

The SM64 conundrum
Yes, I'm bringing this up again. In SM64DS, The Toads are a species (2 appear at once.) but in SM64, only one appears at one time. The instruction book says that Toad and Princess Peach were missing, but maybe he just meant he couldnt see Toad right away... like, when he moved to the left and searched along the wall, he found him? Thoughts? - Ultimatetoad

They're still a species in SM64, since two appear aside Princess Peach at the end. 16:19, 21 July 2007 (EDT)

Ummm.... so what should I put in that section? - Ultimatetoad

In both games Toads are species. However, the main Toad was the one found near the door to the castle (which is probably the first Toad you'll see). However, the main Toad's role in the game is somewhat unimportant since all he does is tell Mario of Peach's kidnapping (doesn't even give Mario a free Power Star like the other Toads). Although I'm not sure about this part, Toad MAY have been standing alongside Peach at the end. Hopefully, that covers your question. 14:04, 25 July 2007 (EDT)

O.k..... - Ultimatetoad

Is there any confirmation on this? There is no source here. Toadster_04

Toad is the first toad mario meets. It says so in the manuel of mario 64 ds as it says "According to Toad,...". I don't see it saying "a toad" so it can be said that it is toad. Also in the remake, Toad has more personality and knows the characters like being scared of wario and thinking he will leave them. User:Pichufan93

Magician?
So... is there any particular reason Toad is in the "Magicians" category? I can't remember him ever using anything that could be called "magic"--a whole lot of throwing stuff and giving out items, but no magic. The descriptions of his abilities in the article don't seem to mention magic either. So is there some obscure thing I'm missing, or should Toad be taken out of that category? Wario&#39;sFalconPAUNCH! 23:12, 16 September 2007 (EDT)
 * In the The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3, Toad used a Magic Wand. He was not very good at it, but he still managed to use the magic.
 * Oh, okay. Thanks for clearing that one up. Wario&#39;sFalconPAUNCH! 00:00, 17 September 2007 (EDT)

Apperance in Mario Galaxy
Prevoucly on the article it had said that toad was in galaxy but it has been taken down how ever one of the guards was toad I beileve and there should be a mention of him I dont know but this should be brought up Partytoad
 * People! Just because a Toad has red color doesn't mean it's the Toad in the article. The "Toad" the article is about appears in the intro, that's it. I think the section should be removed. Toadette 4evur 17:08, 29 January 2008 (EST)

So in this article you can't talk about other Toads? My bad. I just thought it would be interesting for other people to know that there are Toads in Super Mario Galaxy. I don't see why remove the article. Lules

O.kay, Son of Sons, Pokemon DP, you have removed useful info. Sure, the whole Toad/Toadette thing is kind of iffy, but it's still obvious that they have SOME kind of relationship. It's..... how should I say this... important speculation. And DP, sure that list of where Toad may have been was speculative, I realize that now, but is it not still true that Toad's name may be confused with that of the species? Did you really have to remove the whole section? - Ultimatetoad

SMS official art
I know there's official art of Toad from Super Mario Sunshine, but it's not on this site. It's on www.themushroomkingdom.net. We should upload it.

I'm quite sure Toad isn't actually in Super Mario Sunshine and that its all just generic Toads. -- Sir Grodus 21:11, 10 February 2008 (EST)
 * I'd agree with you, except that I can't logically deny that Peach would want her longtime friend Toad to come with her. In terms of official confirmation, though, I got nada.  21:54, 10 February 2008 (EST)


 * I don't know. I think it's Toad, becuase he's listed in the game booklet as "Toad" and as "Peach's attendant". We should at least say in the article that there was a red Toad that might be Toad. Anyway, whether it's Toad or just some red Toad, there's game art of him right here. And the site should have all official art from the Mario series.
 * Hold up: the manual refers to him as Toad? That would cinch it.  I'll check it out and report back.  00:53, 1 March 2008 (EST)
 * Oh, here's a link. You'll find it on page 9. Click here for the whole manual.  For those who trust me, Peach, Toadsworth, and Toad are lined up with a discription next to each.  The Toad in CrystalYoshi's artwork is labeled Toad where Peach and Toadsworth are labeled their names.  In other words, it's presented as a name.  However, it should also be noted that Pianta and Noki are listed as such as well.  Really, you all need to look at the document.  00:57, 1 March 2008 (EST)
 * Well the picture is on the gamehiker wiki, right here. so maybe I'll uplaoad it sometime. If you don't want me to put it on this page, maybe I'll put it on the Toad (species) page.

Toad... as an item?
Is Toad supposed to be an item? If so, how? This entry will not be added into the list unless some explaination is discussed. ;)

Galaxy and Sunshine
How do we know the red toad in Galaxy and Sunshine isn't THE Toad? I got the impression that the whole reason they gave the Toads different colors was to distinguish the lesser toads from The Main Toad, sorta like how it was with Yoshi. - Buddy Chist


 * Well we have no proof they are THE Toad. So, until we're sure, we just leave that out. http://img247.imageshack.us/img247/3473/linkswordmi2.gif Paper Jorge ( Talk&middot;Contributions)&middot; http://img247.imageshack.us/img247/3473/linkswordmi2.gif

But the game Galaxy did give the red one a particular amount of focus and prominance that seems to imply that it's Toad. - Buddy Christ


 * Toad himself typically wears a blue vest. The Sunshine and Galaxy Red Toads wear red vests. Yes, the Red one is the Toad Brigade leader, but it doesn't prove that he's THE Toad. -- Booster


 * Being a leader and more focus means nothing at all. http://img247.imageshack.us/img247/3473/linkswordmi2.gif Paper Jorge ( Talk&middot;Contributions)&middot; http://img247.imageshack.us/img247/3473/linkswordmi2.gif
 * To be fair, you can't tell 100% for sure who's who. I don't think Nintendo makes a notable difference between character and species. The Toad with red cap in blue is simply othen used as a representative for all Toads. - 07:34, 1 March 2008 (EST)

Just mention in the "other appearances" section that toads appeared in those games that might be Toad, but it's not for sure. Actually, it would probably be best for us to count the notable toad in the blue vest as Toad, and others as just Toads. 10:23, 24 April 2008 (EDT)
 * In the beginning of Galaxy, it shows the Toad Brigade holding various stars and stuff, and the red Toad is wearing the blue shirt. It might be hinting towards him being the actual character Toad.  Plus, though this isn't really concrete evidence, back during Super Mario Sunshine, there were li'l kubrick figures and the Toad in red was packaged in the group, showing his importance despite the fact that he did nothing in Sunshine (along with the other Toads).  Either way, it would be good to at least mention the fact that this Toad could possibly be the one from the Toad Brigade in Galaxy.  UrsulaBoi 11:08, 24 April 2008 (EDT)
 * Maybe mention in the other appearances section that it's unsure whether these Toads are Toad. 11:46, 24 April 2008 (EDT)

A Toad, Not The Toad
Many parts of this article talk about games which feature Toads(s) as if they were the actual Toad character. Obviously, any game with numerous Toad(s) isn't a game the actual Toad appears in. Therefore, all of this informaiton needs to be moved to the Toad (species) page. Fixitup

Super Princess Peach Appearence
Well after seeing the intro, I saw that Mario, Luigi and one specific Toad that looks just like Toad being taken in by the hammer bros to Bowser. Should that info be added to Toad's page?

If you're sure it was one Toad, then by all means add it to the article.-- 19:04, 10 September 2009 (EDT)

Luigi's Mansion
In this game, I pretty sure that Toad appeared only and not other toads as he was sent by peach. Should it be added to the article?

A Toad, Not the Toad (Again)
A long time ago I commented on how much of the page contains information about Toad species and not Toad the character in terms of game appearances. Soon I WILL be moving anything deemed the Toad species unless someone expresses concern about what shouldn't be moved and why. FD09

For which parts are you speaking about. Most of the article besides the confusion with Toad appearences seem to be related to the character Toad. Things like the mario 64 part which I assume you're talking about are confirmed to be Toad from the instruction manuels. User:Pichufan93

Main Quote
There is somthing odd about the main quote.I mean, Toad didn't appear in Mario and Luigi:Bowser's inside story.So the main quote belongs to another Toad!Is it okay to change it?User:Mr bones

Yeah, it should be changed. Toad never appeared in that game. User:Pichufan93

Who changed the new main quote?User:mr bones

Mario Baseball conclusion
So should it be stated that Toad is infact in Mario baseball and Sluggers as seen by his bio, chemistry and importance in the opening movies? his bio states that he is peach's loyal subject who tries to protect her. It's possible that they made his vest red so that he wouldn't be with the same vest as Blue Toad. Yoshi is also stated as green yoshi in the baseball games at times as well I believe. So should it be added with the amount of hints there is? User:Pichufan93

Stamina 1

Salary 1

By the way, that's not THE Toad, but a Toad.-- 14:11, 12 January 2010 (EST)

Actually, that is Toad as from what I seen, the game refers the Toad as just Toad. He also looks just like his usual self in that game. That's why he is Peach's partner due to being Peach's assistant and he's the only toad there. User:Pichufan93

Super Mario Galaxy (series) Toad
That's the TOAD BRIGADE captain, not toad, toad has a blue vest, not red, that information should be deleted. I don't think it's just toad saying he's the captain and wearing a red vest. Who agrees with me?!

Super Mario Galaxy Bio

Collectible Card Bio: ''Toad is Princess Peach's closest confidant and sworn protector. Typically Toad is a happy character, as seen by the constant smile on his face. But now he has reason to be concerned. His beloved princess has been kidnapped by Bowser, and Toad will stop at nothing to help find her. Just when all is feared lost, Toad and his friends appear in their Mushroom-shaped ships and help guide Mario on his quest to save Princess Peach.''

Looks like it is indeed Toad. the bio is enough proofs.13:53, 31 August 2010 (UTC)

The captain is indeed Toad as since Sunshine, Toad has appeared in various games with a red vest (even confirmed in official guides for games like sunshine and even the spin-offs). His most standard look is with a blue vest though in games his coloration is changed for various reasons (such as distinguishing himself from the other Toads). He is also a major Toad in comparison to the other Toads in the game. His bio for galaxy is pretty much the only information that we have for the captain and even it confirms that he is Toad. He also got official artwork for galaxy 1 and was on the boxart of the second one as well. He is also one of the save icons that are represting galaxy characters (others include Mario, Luigi, Peach, Yoshi and Luma from galaxy 2 I believe which are all characters that are in the game and he is labelled as Toad [though named as the captain to distinguish himself as well as the fact that he calls himself the captain of the Toad Brigade]). It's similar to Yoshi as we and even Nintendo sees the yoshis in sunshine and galaxy 2 as Yoshi himself and the same goes for Toad as they are both generic characters. User:Propeller Toad

The confusion with appearances section seems to remain undecided on whether the Red spotted toad in SMS, SMG & SMG2 is Toad. But the SMS and SMG sections confirm that the red toad is Toad. It's like two sections of the article are debating with eachother. Someone should clear that up.

User:IGGY7735

I personally think we should keep the confusion part, but change it around to make sure we mention why Toad does make an appearance in these games. Why? Well, it is to show those reading the article the reasoning as to why this Red Toad is indeed Toad. Therefore, we should keep the confusion parts as well as it will give some insight to the those viewing Toad's article so that they are aware of why this Red Toad is indeed Toad (proof is provided in each example I believe). However, I think we should change the lead from saying "This section will list his possible appearances." to "This section will list the disputed appearances of Toad." (since it was once argued before as to whether or not the Red Toad was indeed Toad before we got proof).

User:Propeller Toad

An Error
I just was reviewing, and isn't Toadsworth Princess Peach's long time protector and not Toad himself? Just saying. Feel free to give your ideas to this.

I'm not sure what part you are mentioning in particular but if you mean the intro then that is referring to the fact that Toad is a protector of the Mushroom Kingdom due to efforts such as helping mario to save the kingdom or even protecting it by himself in games like Wario's Woods. However in relation to Princess Peach, Toad originally was Peach's protector and her loyal servant who would take care of her (his roles being similar to Toadsworth's in the original games-eg. Mario RPG legend of the seven stars). Toadsworth only came in recently and replaced Toad's role in the newer games like in sunshine and the mario and luigi games. However in some of the new games such as the galaxy games, it is seen that the captain is Toad as he is going on to help his princess by helping Mario to recover the power stars. Even though Toadsworth is peach's steward now, Toad is still her loyal servant and does his best to protect her (thus being a long time protector).

Powers and Abilities
Nothing about NSMB Wii.
 * While two Toads are playable, Toad isn't technically one of them as Blue Toad and Yellow Toad have their own pages. The abilities of Toad from that game can be seen on those two pages. User:Pichufan93
 * Yellow and Blue are toads too, so every toad can be Mini, Propeller and Penguin.

Super Mario Bros.
The article claims that Toad was one of the Mushroom Retainers rescued in Super Mario Bros., but this is not stated in the game and no source is cited; is there any official word on this? He's confirmed to be a Mushroom Retainer in the Super Mario Bros. 2 manual, but that wouldn't have to mean he's one of those that appear in Super Mario Bros.; we don't know how many Mushroom Retainers there are. As far as I'm aware, Toad as a character wasn't invented until the western Super Mario Bros. 2, so unless there's some source retrospectively stating that he's meant to be one of the Toads in the original SMB, that section shouldn't be here.--vellidragon 14:31, 30 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I suppose no, there are many other things that makes your mind confused. Like this Toad Brigade. They weren't even confirmed to be the same as the ones in SMS. So back to the subject, no, I don't think there is a single source confirming that. If there is, then the writer of that information should put it in references.07:23, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Source??????? Read manual for this wiki, it's not upcoming game.By the way, look at mushroom retainer and Toad, very familiar don't you think?

Retainer has 3 colors+black background because of NES's 8-bitness, while Toad from Wii has alot of colors with 3rd dimension. Both has white cap with red dots, both has white pants, rounded shoes (not brown because of 8-bit), that shirt (you know why not blue, right?).
 * It doesn't need to be an upcoming game. Anything that can't easily be cofnirmed from what's seen in the game or stated in its manual should be sourced, people can just go around putting nonsense speculation everywhere otherwise. Also, nobody doubts that Toad is a Toad, if that's what you're trying to show.--vellidragon 15:47, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

No, that doesn't mean they're the same. All the toads look similar. Specially red ones, just look at paper mario's many red toads!! And they all look like Toad himself.07:28, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

The Smash Bros. series has Toad's first appearance (in his trophies) labelled as Super Mario Bros. and when Super Mario Bros. 2 was made, it was stated within the instruction manuals that Toad was one of Peach's Mushroom Retainers from the original game. In Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, Toad was one of the 6 mushroom retainers that appeared as well. Additionally, the mario cartoons (if you count it) has him referring to himself as a mushroom retainer as well. I believe the further evidence is that Toad still has the position of being Peach's loyal servants (considering the games after Super Mario Bros. had the retainers renamed as Peach's servants and guards). Toad has also been seen as a representation for all Toads, therefore he has been named to being one of the retainers in the original game as well as seen in the twenty fifth mario series anniversary products and booklets. In short, Toad's singular appearance was yes in Super Mario Bros. 2, however his this singular character was made directly off the design from the mushroom retainers making any one of them the Toad that made his appearance in Mario 2. User:Pichufan9309:37, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
 * It seems there's a bit of a misunderstanding here; I'm not doubting the fact that Toad is a Mushroom Retainer, I even pointed out that the Super Mario Bros. 2 confirms him to be one. The manual does not state that he's one of the Mushroom Retainers in Super Mario Bros., however; there may be any number of Mushroom Retainers in addition to those that are rescued in that game, which I also pointed out above. If his first appearance is indeed given as Super Mario Bros. in other official material though, that's proof enough I suppose. Someone should probable cite those in the respective section though to avoid further confusion (as I stated above, it's not clear from the game itself or its manual that Toad is supposed to be in it, so sourcing that information makes sense.)--vellidragon 15:47, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

This game marks the debut of the mushroom people (Toads). Therefore, considering how Toad is seen as the singular representation of the Toads, it makes sense that he made his debut in this game, though he was never considered to being a singular character in later games. Also look at remakes of Super Mario Bros., like Super Mario Bros. deluxe. This game has Toad as the singular representation for the mushroom retainers further proving this point. Mario RPG has also made references to his appearance and the Melee and Brawl trophies are big proofs as well (especially the melee one which talks mainly about Toad himself). I agree with Pichufan93 as it is true for the 25th Super Mario bros. anniversary, merchandise lists Toad being one of the characters making their debuts in this game. Also spin-offs state that his first appearance was in this game (Super Mario Kart, Mario kart 64 ect). Propeller Toad 19:46, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Hey I posted this in an earlier section but i didnt see this one... http://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/Q3TJhfvkUiLDeT6Brt3L2AyaWRCF0djg confirms that Toad debuted in Super Mario Bros. 2, so there is no way he was in the original. A Link to the Present 23:58, 17 February 2011 (EST)

It is official, however, this has not been the case at all times as the Smash bros. trophies state that Toad's first appearance was in Super Mario Bros.. Additionally, the Mario twenty fifth video (and site) anniversary names the mushroom retainer beside Peach as Toad. We have to also take in consideration that Toad is the sole representative for all Toads, so it seems that Nintendo uses Toad as the general image for the Mushroom Retainers in the original game.

Not to mention the various catch cards for Toad's profile (in countless spin-off games) which state that his first appearance was in Super Mario Bros.. Propeller Toad

Talk Page Proposal: Split Toad and Red Toad
DON'T SPLIT 4-13

It is not proven anywhere that the red Toad that appears in Super Mario Sunshine, Mario Baseball, and Super Mario Galaxy 2 (there is evidence in the first one) is the Toad. I propose we move the info about those Toads into a new article, and remove it from here. Who's with me?

Proposer: Deadline:September 10, 2011, 23:59 GMT

Support

 * 1) Well, it's my own proposal.
 * 2) Per Toad!
 * 3) Per all. The Toad in the Mario Baseball series is Red Toad, not the Toad character. For proof, just look in the trivia section in Mario Sports Mix
 * 4) We have an article for The Yoshi and another for Green Yoshi. Also, per proposal.

Oppose

 * 1) I believe this has already been discussed as multiple proofs exist for explaining that it is THE Toad. The web and card bios prove that it is Toad. Additionally, the developers who discuss the games in their interviews use Toad's japanese name for referring toToad in these games. Additionally, trivia was created by users in this wiki (not aware of the baseball games). This is why we have these information here if you read the confusion and bio sections on this article.
 * 2) I disagree with this. Like what Propeller Toad says, we have official information actually stating that this is not a random Toad, but Toad himself. Also character traits and Toad's importance to the baseball intros is also something to consider (also his closeness to Toadette in the artwork of Mario sluggers and his chemistry with Wario and Bowser (obvious Wario's Woods ref). Also in Galaxy 2, they are the same Toads. They were introduced like in the first game in order to allow new players (who did not play the first) to know who they are. There is a reason why they say " the Toad Brigade returns!" and the Toads are identical to the ones from Galaxy. Are Toads that generic!? I can't believe people actually try to deny Toad's appearances, yet they do nothing to Yoshi's article which contain info of the Yoshi species as well as the character.
 * 3) That is THE Toad. We have proof in all of these games (just check the the confusion with appearances section). Also, that Red Toad in the baseball games is Toad as you just check the game manuals for his bio and he is also coming from the Mushroom Kingdom with the other important characters to Peach's baseball stadium (Mario, Luigi, Daisy, Yoshi, and TOAD) in the sluggers intro vid. Why wouldn't this be THE Toad? Also agreed about the Yoshi part Pichufan93. Nobody complains there.
 * 4) Per all.
 * 5) Due to his lines in Super Mario Galaxy 2, I'm pretty sure these guys are the same person, er Toad. Umm, per all.
 * 6) Per All.
 * 7) Per alll.
 * 8) Red Toad is Toad...
 * 9) Per all.
 * 10) Per all.
 * 11) Per all
 * 12) Per all.
 * 13) Per all. We do have proof that these are Toad's appearances...

Comments
@Pichufan- I can see where you're coming from with Galaxy 2, but WHERE is the proof that the Toad in Mario Super Sluggers or Mario Sports Mix is THE Toad? They look pretty generic to me, and for the most part are just recolours of the other Toads. All of the Toads in MSS have the SAME chemistry, so your point there is invalid. There is absolutely NO solid proof that the red Toad that appear in Sunshine is THE Toad. As an avid fanboy of Toad, I would not dream of limiting Toad's appearances. I am just moving the games that are DON'T CONTAIN TOAD HIMSELF. And if you would like to do the same to the Yoshi article, be my guest. I won't stop you.

@Skitty02- As I said to Pichufan, WHERE is the proof? It seems like most of your "proof" is speculation. It is very possible that that isn't THE Toad.

@Toad85- I'm pretty sure it is obvious that it is THE Toad in Mario Sports Mix. Also for the baseball games, you have to look at the Red Toad's importance. Why was he featured in all the cutscenes like all the other important Mario characters in both games. He also acts just like Toad. His name case may be simmer to Yoshi as he too is specified as Green Yoshi. Also check out the bios for the Mario baseball games for this Toad. Interestingly, his bios name him as "Toad" and as Peach's loyal servant. Also as for Super Mario Sunshine, he was named as "Toad" in the instruction manual. Additionally, the same artwork of the red Toad in this game is reused to present Toad in the Mario Kart games (check out signs in DD and the picture of Toad in Toad's Factory in MKWii). It is obvious that there is a reason why Toad is using the artwork of this Toad only and not the others.

New Toad Solo Artwork Surfaced (Super Mario 3D Land)
Heads-up, everyone -- a new solo artwork of Toad has surfaced in the case of Super Mario 3D Land. Specifically this one: I believe that it's time for the main infobox picture to be changed for this article using this picture, but only when the game itself gets released. When it does, I'll take care of the change (since I'm somewhat a fan of Toad as well) if there aren't any objections from you folks. Don't get me wrong, the current one is good too, but I belive the SM3DL picture here definitely shows Toad's personality (plus he's facing us, the readers as well, which is a major criteria for character article infobox pictures). --M. C. - "Mario Gals" Fan! User Page | Talk Page 12:16, 6 October 2011 (EDT)


 * Seems like Lindsay151 already took care of the infobox picture change since last night (thanks for the help, Lindsay151). It still must be said here -- this infobox picture of Toad should not be changed to another picture until further notice. --M. C. - "Mario Gals" Fan!

Toad in 3D Land
The Super Mario 3D Land section of this article seems to say that EVERY red and blue toad is Toad. I thought that Toad was the one that ran the Toad Houses, while the toads that give you star medals are generic, what gives? Not every green yoshi is Yoshi, so not every red and blue toad is Toad.

-IGGY7735

While playing the game, you should notice that there is actually one red Toad with a blue vest in the game. He appears individually in each scene he is seen and even has the same power up usage in the special worlds. Additionally, the menu and final special world level confirm this as there is only one red Toad with a blue vest amongst the countless number of Toads. There are even many red Toads, but only one red Toad with a blue vest. In smg2, Yoshi the character was confirmed to be that Yoshi even though his egg always seemed to exist in different galaxies. Same case here with Toad's recurring appearances. Toad should be noticeable as well in front of the three Toads that also appear in the levels.

Super Mario Bros.
In the Super Mario Bros. section of this article, it says that Toad is one of several Mushroom Retainers. Which one is he?

This has already been discussed in the previous sections of the talk. It is uncertain of which Mushroom Retainer he was; however, it is said that Toad is indeed one of these Mushroom Retainers in SMB2. In SMRPG, Toad was one of the Mushroom Retainers inspired from the original SMB game. In the promotion of the original SMB and SMB Deluxe (a remake), singular art was used to imply that there was a separate Toad character as well. Additionally, in Nintendo's celebration of the Mario 25th anniversary, Toad was one of the celebrated characters as well (being the rep for the general Mushroom Retainers).

In short, it is unknown of which one he is as the character was not a highlight in the original game (being more used in later games); however, Toad is indeed one of the original Mushroom Retainer; nonetheless.

Thanks for clarifying.

mario kart series
how do ya know that the toad in the mario kart series is THE toad? there is also a koopa troopa in mario kart: double dash and in mario kart 7, but i never heard of a THE koopa troopa.

I don't know but I DO know that toad is the fastest character in Mario Kart Wii(©Nintendo).

Toad having no cap in SM3DW?
In the Super Mario 3D World somebody wrote that toad loses his cap in the game where was that seen?


 * Never, Blue Toad's spots invert at one point, but it never is removed

SM3DW
Is the playable Toad in SM3DW Blue Toad, or this one? right now the information on this page says it's this one wearing another cap, but is it even confirmed that it's this Toad? I think it should be moved to the page of Blue Toad, because he looks more like him rather than this Toad. I do know that they seem to call the character キノピオ (Kinopio, the Japanese name) in the trailer, but they called Blue Toad and Yellow Toad this way too in NSMBW. ~

When toad has the fire flower, he becomes yellow toad. That's why toad is just called "toad".

That is NOT Toad.
The Toad you play as in 3D World is not the Toad that we all know. It's Blue Toad. This needs to be changed. --174.102.141.32 23:49, 21 December 2013 (EST)

Keep it to confirmed appearances of Toad?
This article seems to count a lot of appearances of both Toad as a character and as a species. The problem is that many fans assume that just about any generic Toad would be the Toad if it's given some significance. There's also a separate article for the latter, so perhaps it might be best to condense this article kept to appearances where Toad is explicitly singled out and named as the individual Toad. This would take out appearances such as...


 * Super Mario Bros.
 * Super Mario Bros. 3 (directly mentioned in the manual as being by Peach's side, but not known to be any of the ones operating the Toad Houses or next to the kings)
 * Super Mario 3D Land
 * New Super Mario Bros. series (maybe not counting the Super Mario 64 DS mini-games)
 * Super Mario Galaxy series (if Captain Toad is not counted as Toad, which he apparently doesn't seem to be as of 3D World)
 * Luigi's Mansion series
 * Mario & Luigi series
 * The Baseball & Strikers series?
 * Some cameo appearances, such as Kirby Super Star (Ultra)
 * ...Anything else I forgot like some comics.

I could say the same about the Yoshi article, so I wanted to see what the census is on this idea... LinkTheLefty (talk) 16:34, 1 May 2014 (EDT)


 * I'm a bit leery about chopping so much stuff out of the article: the readership is going to include the folks assuming Toad's omnipresent, and finding huge "gaps" in the coverage might be confusing. Nintendo itself also blurs the line between the guy and the species pretty thoroughly: half the time it seems like they assume Toad and Yoshi are omnipresent as much as the fans, and/or they just don't care - either way, us nitpicking starts to seem a bit pointless. Take the SSBM and SSBB Toad trophies for example: both have SMB as the first appearance and talk about the SMB2 appearance, but while SSBM seems more about THE Toad with an aside about other Toads, SSBB starts general and then switches to taking in the singular about SMB2 (the joys of translating from a language that doesn't tend to differentiate between singular and plural, I suspect, plus the aforementioned Nintendo-doesn't-give-a-crap factor).
 * Strikers already isn't covered here, and Mario Superstar Baseball can probably be removed too, however Sluggers seems to involve a unique Toad in the cutscenes (if the article is accurate), so it has more cause to stay. Similarly, the Mario & Luigi Toad appearances also seem reasonable to include, given the prominent roles the single Toads are given. In both cases, while it's not explicitly stated it's THE Toad, it's not stated that it's not him either; as a rule, the simplest and most straightforward interpretation is preferable, so I'd argue that it's better to just go with the flow and say it IS Toad rather than speculating otherwise. The Luigi's Mansion Toad appearances are tougher calls since I haven't played the games and don't know how much the red-capped-blue-vested Toad is differentiated from the others, but I'm tempted to say leave it in for consistency with the overall "red-cap-blue-vest = Toad" idea that is also being used to back up the stuff about the recent Super Mario games. And as for the earlier Super Mario titles, I think both the SMB and SMB3 sections could have some of the padding taken out, and written more like, "there were Toads here, and retroactive one of them became a specific character, as seen in trophies and spin-off material, etc., but see the species page for the full story of these games", but I wouldn't outright remove them entirely.

 * You make a good point about the readers who might think Toad/Yoshi is omnipresent, but on the other hand there could always be a hidden note at the top of the pages just for editors to try and ensure that whatever is on the page must undoubtedly be confirmed appearances (ie. one character clearly labelled Toad), and I think the redirect at the top of the respective articles' counterparts ought to be enough (although perhaps added with something more clear like: "For information about the species and other uses of the name that are not necessarily mutually exclusive to the single individual, see [species article]"). In my personal opinion (and I mean this with no offense), it's harder to justify separate character and species pages when there's a lot of guesswork overlap involved between the two pages. The way is currently is, I feel, is a lot like the earlier versions of the Yellow Toad and Blue Toad pages, when a bunch of uncertain appearances were attributed to the same character(s). Even if Nintendo themselves blurs the line at times, I think it should be up to the reader (not the Wiki) to judge for themselves whether or not any number of other generically-dressed Toads happens to be Toad... Or at least, this just an idea to help keep the articles distinct from one other. LinkTheLefty (talk) 22:14, 1 May 2014 (EDT)


 * A nice addendum to the above would be a new section dedicated solely to unconfirmed appearances, with a disclaimer that goes something like: "This section lists additional appearances of the Toad species; as the character is not conclusively identified, it should be noted that Toad himself may or may not make an appearance in these titles. For more details about these appearances, see [species article]." LinkTheLefty (talk) 17:47, 13 May 2014 (EDT)


 * The section you describe, is it basically the "Confusion with appearances" section but with examples? 17:51, 13 May 2014 (EDT)


 * Basically, yes, I guess you can say that. What I have in mind is a more comprehensive list of appearances of other Toad characters / unnamed or unidentified appearances, with a table like this, possibly a side note on generic Toad candidates that may be a sighting of the Toad character, and going into more detail in the other article (ideally leaving the expanded summaries in this article to confirmed appearances). LinkTheLefty (talk) 18:03, 13 May 2014 (EDT)
 * Cool. But, the biggest problem is who is going to document all those Toad appearances chronologically. But this can be a help. 18:08, 13 May 2014 (EDT)
 * I listed a few earlier that immediately came to mind. As for others: a lot of the sports or party spinoffs are safe, especially if Toad is playable (except for games that have multiple Toads as "team players"). Cartoon appearances also seem to be accurate, since they considered Toad to be a character rather than the name of his race in the first place. Cameo appearances are usually just for the player's benefit and can just as easily be generic Toads, so those can be considered unconfirmed (like, say, the portrait of the caller NPC added to Mario Is Missing! CD-ROM Deluxe, the WarioWare: Touched! microgame, or most any "out of series universe" guest appearance). So I think that covers almost all of the general bases - the ones I'm really worried about having straight are the appearances in comics, particularly the foreign or more obscure ones, since right now it seems these appearances might be lumped together by default. Outside of that, I would consider totally confirmed appearances to be ones in which he is clearly labelled to be Toad (singular) in the actual product, either in the game itself or in the original packaging / instruction manual. And of course, I think this approach can be applied to just about any article with separate "character / species" versions, not just Toad, as long as the article makes itself clear... LinkTheLefty (talk) 19:01, 13 May 2014 (EDT)
 * Another possibility in the same vein that I've been mulling over since this topic was first broached is replacing the "Confusion with Appearances" section with a "Possible Appearances" section, which would have a brief discussion about the confusion and then cover everything as sections, rather than a table (although things like cameos can be collapsed into a single section that just lists them out, like most regular characters' cameo sections). This offers an efficient way to deal with situations like the M&L games and Sluggers where you do have a single Toad in a major role: to me, it would seem ill-fitting to talk about those individual Toads in the overall species article, but making separate pages for the unnamed Toad NPCs also seems far less than ideal, especially when most folks are gonna assume it's Toad and come here for the info anyway. Compared to the alternatives, as long as we acknowledge that it's not confirmed, just inferred, our established article for the single, prominent Toad seems like a perfectly reasonable place for info on single, prominent Toads that everything thinks are him anyway. (Plus it means that folks looking through the TOC will see the games they expect to see somewhere on the page right away, but the first point is the main point.) - 20:04, 13 May 2014 (EDT)
 * I think I like that idea more than mine, since as you said it would further reduce potential confusion among readers. On top of that, should all the known/confirmed appearances be under its own major section as well? LinkTheLefty (talk) 13:21, 14 May 2014 (EDT)
 * Awesome: I'm glad we seem to have found a solution we both like. I was thinking the confirmed stuff would stay in the "History" section, with "Possible appearances" coming right after, and maybe a note in the intro giving users a heads-up that there's a divide. Also, I like the idea of applying this structure to other ambiguous character/species divides - Kamek, for example, comes to mind immediately, since prominent Magikoopas are constantly assumed to be him. Since this is going to affect more than the Toad page, we should probably make a full Proposal about it, rather than just changing things ourselves; if we feel we have the ideas smoothed out enough, I could write and post one in the next couple days. - 16:14, 14 May 2014 (EDT)


 * So anyway, since no one had anything more to add, I made the Proposal. - 21:02, 23 May 2014 (EDT)

Not Toad.
Toad is not Blue Toad in SM3DW. And I know about the TPP so I want to start another one. Problem is idk how. Can someone else start one?

If Toad in SM3DW somehow became blue, why is he red again in the following games? That's... stupid. It's not THE Toad. If you don't want to make it the same character as NSMB series and/or SMG, then merge it with the Toad species or make a new page. But it is definitely not THE Toad.

Peanutjon (talk) 18:02, 22 May 2014 (EDT)

Reading through arguments like these you guys seem to recently go by proven things. The only problem is that with that, there are pretty much NO characters who are Toads. Even the red Toad with a blue jacket, there are multiple of- Super Princess Peach and Partners in Time, for example. Therefore any page for individual Toads is nearly entirely speculation as to whether or not it is a specific Toad, unless it is flat-out said that it is the same. As far as I can see, the Blue Toad in SM3DW is referred to as "Toad", but not in any specific sense.

Other theories I've seen include that in SMB2 THE Toad is blue, but is referred to as THE Toad, so it should be the same in SM3DW. However, as proven by remakes of SMB2, this is simply a graphics error, whereas SM3DW is specifically colored blue. On purpose. They're too high-tech to do it by accident or because they have to.

"The fact that" phrase is meaningless and pretentious. Anyway, Blue Toad in 3D World IS the Toad. We had mind - blowing discussions on this, so please refer to those before beating up the ashes of a dead horse. Here's the primary source for it: Nintendo official site: "'Toad is the fastest of the four friends, so he’s the best bet in situations where speed is essential. Princess Peach’s loyal servant and Mario’s lifelong buddy, Toad is a plucky little fellow who’s tougher than his size implies!'"  16:49, 26 May 2014 (EDT)

 * Doesn't necessarily prove anything, and for the record I did see the TPPs and stuff, I mentioned that at the top, so you probably should've paid more attention to that >.> Anyhow. All Toads are Peach's loyal servant and a good chunk of them are Mario's lifelong buddy. Not to mention I'm pretty sure he's the same Toad as the one in NSMB which would additionally make him a "lifelong buddy" of Mario. And I'm sorry (kinda) about the "the fact that", but I'm a bit tired of the reaction to a lot of things I say on here, which are often extremely similar to what you and Ninelevando are currently doing, which is acting as if I'm completely stupid because I disagree with you or don't know all the facts (such as the Nintendo website, although yet again that doesn't necessarily prove anything).
