Pixel Toad

Pixel Toad is Toad in 8-bit form. He first appears in Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker when the player uses their Toad amiibo to play Hide and Seek. When activated, the player must locate Pixel Toad hidden somewhere in a stage. Then, as Captain Toad, the player must give chase and catch it. Once caught, a stamp of Pixel Toad will be marked on the level that was played.



In Super Mario Maker, Pixel Toad is also one of many possible characters to form out of a Mystery Mushroom when Mario touches it.
