::::::I know very well what I said regarding that Toady assembly, and I sense you are too wound up in semantics to properly decipher my intention with those statements. My claim before Doc's above clarification was that the Toady quartet, in and of themselves, are a template, or a root "species", for the other Toady enemies found in the game. Calling them a "base species", while somewhat of a misnomer in the context of our wiki, was merely an attempt at evoking a group of enemies that overlapped 1:1 with the concept of Kamek's Toadies, but excluded Solo/Green Toadies. This claim of mine has since been proven unfounded once Doc essentially pointed out that Google Translate's interpretation of what I construed as base Toadies from that Japanese guide ("Kamek") was incorrect (being, in fact, explicitly "Kamek's Toadies"). Seeing as how I've been educated on this misinterpretation and that I duly changed my vote in consequence, I don't think there is a point in this discussion continuing further. {{User:Koopa con Carne/Sig}} 11:46, November 4, 2021 (EDT)

::::::EDIT: "''{{'}}''Google Translate''{{'}} - I insist that you do ''not''. Apologies, but I seriously lack the time to be cleaning up '''junior mistranslations''' left lying around.''" That is just ''rich'' of you to comment, considering you, as someone who reputably knows Japanese, made no effort to explain these sources but rather left me to my own devices to research the names and bios presented therein. {{User:Koopa con Carne/Sig}} 12:02, November 4, 2021 (EDT)
