(TTYD and Superstar Saga were developed by different studios. This does not mean a species that debuted in one species couldn't show up in another (I wouldn't be surprised in Intelligent Systems' staff played Superstar Saga), but it's not super common, and there are a few original characters in TTYD that are "Toad-like body with weird animal/plant head", so for this case, I think it's better to be a little cautious.)
