Having consulted his guidebook, Toad confidently says that the island was indeed the right place and he offers to ask for some help from the locales. After scampering off to find help, Mario and Peach meet Huey , a floating 3D talking paint bucket.
However, it is not long before the screams of Toad were heard in which Mario, Peach, and Huey are horrified to find a Slurp Guy draining the colors out of Toad leaving him to become mere paper.
Eventually, Toad is given back his colors thanks to Mario and Huey. He spends the rest of the game in the small inn in Port Prisma's yellow district. The concept of the recurring character Toad is also lampshaded. When the red Rescue Squad has assembled at The Emerald Circus , talking to Toad 35 has him ask if Mario remembers him, Toad who appeared together with Mario in "that other game".
Toad, along with eleven other Mario series characters and several characters from the Dragon Quest series, appears as a playable character in the Monopoly game Itadaki Street DS. Toad also runs the tutorial mode of the game where he assists the player by explaining the basic controls. The Toad Head and Toad Suit are collectible accessories in this game that can be equipped on customizable characters. He is one of the thirteen playable Mario series characters in this installment.
Instead of making fun of the other players during his talking sequences, Toad will normally encourage the other players and ask if they are all having a good time as his personality is shown to be rather kind and open throughout the game. He can frequently be seen alongside Cream the Rabbit as judges in the various event matches including the fencing and high jump events. The two also are seen calling out fouls and starting the races in the Athletics events.
In the Wii version, he along with Cream are the main hosts that introduce the events to the players in the Festival Mode. The two also resume very similar judging roles as in the first game. However, in the DS version of the game, Toad appears in the story mode with a bigger role and is the first person for Mario and Sonic to meet in Frostown. He excitedly joins their party after been spoken to, acting mainly as a guide for the adventure Toad states himself that he will not be able to do much once he agrees to join them.
In both games, Toad is the only red-spotted Toad to appear within the games despite the numerous amount of Toads present in the audience. In the Wii version , Toad appears alongside Cream as the hosts of the London Party mode, in which he gives out information to the players about various events, such as characters appearing on the map, scores and upcoming Events.
He also appears as a referee in several other events in the game, most notably as the host of Dream Equestrian. A Mii outfit based on Toad can also be unlocked by playing against a friend 5 times in the Single Event mode, and Toad will occasionally send the player mail. Toad also appears as a referee in several events alongside other Toads in the Nintendo 3DS version , as well as appearing on the results screens in medleys.
A badge of Toad can also be randomly earned from the badge machine. In the story mode, Toad plays a relatively large role, as he accompanies Mario and Luigi for most of the story and often interprets for them.
After initially being scared by the Phantasmal Fog , Toad helps Mario and Luigi clear it from the Main Stadium , before following them to Hyde Park , where they find that the Girls group, Toads and Rouge have already cleared the fog from the area.
They explore the museum to learn about the source of the fog, before splitting up after some news from Charmy and Espio , and Toad and Mario later follow Wario challenging Dr. Eggman , who he later defeats after teaming up with Waluigi. Seeing this, Toad heads back to the Main Stadium with the others, which is shortly covered back by the Phantasmal Fog. After rescuing Cream, Toad and the Heroes travel to Stonehenge with Omega , where they find the seal for the Fog urn before heading back to London.
The group head to Big Ben to confront Bowser and Dr. Eggman, though Toad and Omega eventually return to the Main Stadium due to no longer being able to endure the fog. Toad also leads the call over the walkie-talkie to the Heroes during their confrontation and also invites Bowser and Dr.
Eggman to register for the Olympic Games after they are defeated. Toad appears at the opening ceremony, as well as in the photo at the end of the credits with the athletes and Omochao.
He is exclusive to the 4xm Relay event. Toad does not appear as a playable character in the Nintendo 3DS version. Toad makes an appearance as a default playable character in Mario Sports Mix where he is classified as a speedy character. His home stage in this game is the amusement park like area called Toad Park.
Toad's special move involves him emitting a spore-like attack while having large rotating mushrooms blocking any opponents in his path. Toad also appears in the story mode of the game where he was first seen gardening outside of Princess Peach's castle.
He is soon interrupted by the appearance of a meteor-like object crashing into the Mushroom Kingdom. Upon investigation, Toad and three other Toads discover that the crashed objects were four Sports Crystals.
The four Toads then get an idea to make a Sports tournament, with the crystals representing the trophies for each sport; thus beginning the events of the game.
Toad takes on a new alias as a doctor in Dr. Mario World , named Dr. He serves as the guide in stage mode, instructing Dr. Mario and his friends on how to defeat the viruses and how to use items and other game features to their advantage. While possessing a head mirror and white lab coat akin to the other doctors, he also possesses a blue tie and a satchel.
Toad is also a playable unlockable character, where he can be randomly obtained through the Staffing menu. Toad is available as a reward for clearing World 1 's first area since version 2. Players who fulfilled the conditions for obtaining Dr. Toad's prior to those version updates can obtain him from the doc box. In stage mode and versus mode, Dr. Toad's skill is to target several locations to be eliminated, where it is represented by Dr. Toad calling a horde of Toads carrying capsules to throw it into the play area.
The amount of targets is 20 spots in stage mode and 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 spots at level 1 to 5 in versus mode 5, 10, 15, 20 and 30 respectively prior to season 7 in versus mode. When using this skill, at least one object is guaranteed to be targeted for being eliminated, while the rest are random.
This skill will not target any unclearable objects, such as cages or Empty Blocks. Toad makes a cameo appearance in Kirby Super Star where he is a part of the audience in several of the minigames such as "Megaton Punch" along with several others from the Mario cast such as Mario, Luigi, and Birdo. Toad himself is exclusively seen in the beginning of a race in the racecourse Course 2 where he greets and cheers on the player alongside several referees before the race on the specified course.
Toad is also the first guest character to congratulate the player in the ending sequence of the game while using the same animations as his first appearance in the game. Toad makes a notable cameo as a stamp for photos in the Game Boy Camera peripheral. The artwork of him depicted in this stamp is inspired by his official artwork from Mario Party.
In WarioWare: Touched! The objective of the microgame is for the players to use their stylus to rub the backs of the three characters until they feel good. However, the player must complete the rubbing sequence before the timer runs out as with all other microgames.
Many red-spotted Toads appear throughout the Mushroom Kingdom and other locales, and are often confused to be the actual character named Toad. Generally, it is believed that any Toad given a unique role is Toad, or that at least one of a number of Toads appearing in a game is the Toad.
It is also largely held that Toad is set apart by having red spots and a blue vest, rather than having matching spots and clothes; however, games such as Super Princess Peach have depicted multiple blue-vested-red-spotted Toads, and Toad's appearance has also varied to give him a red vest in some games, and even blue spots in others, such as Super Mario 3D World.
U Deluxe , making the line between definitive appearances and possible appearances often difficult to determine. In Super Mario Bros. While this is retained in the manual of Super Mario Advance 4 , the opening depicts the letter from the Toad servant of the king of Grass Land as signed by "Toad", and the princess is not seen in the company of any Toad.
In either case, he would appear not to be in charge of the Toad Houses or Spade Panels. The Super Mario 64 instruction booklet mentions that Toad is missing which presumably makes him one of the many Toads trapped within the castle walls, [2] but the Super Mario 64 DS instruction booklet instead indicates that Toad is the first one seen in the game, and is not missing. The Toad wearing a red vest is named as Toad in the instruction booklet for the game, appearing as one of five young Toad attendants who had accompanied Princess Peach and Mario on their vacation to Isle Delfino in Super Mario Sunshine , although it is unclear if this role refers to his name or species.
Upon landing on the island, this Toad and the others find the place to be a mess thanks to the work of a mysterious man who strongly resembles Mario. Throughout most of the actual game, Toad plays a rather minor role by giving out tips to Mario about how to play the game such as how to do the box break move and as well as information about the different areas within the island. After Peach had been kidnapped, Toad can be seen to be very upset and spends most of his time worrying about her in Delfino Plaza.
He will give Mario the occasional tips if he is spoken to such as mentioning the princess being taken to Pinna Park. After Mario had rescued Peach, Toad and the other heroes can finally be seen enjoying the facilities available on Isle Delfino during the credits. Additionally, it is revealed at the end of the game that Toad along with the other Toad attendants had fixed F. It is also Toad himself who is seen supporting the repaired F. As the game's credits begin, it is revealed through the snapshots that Toad and the other heroes finally had the time to relax in the various areas of Isle Delfino after Bowser's defeat.
Official art for Super Mario Galaxy shows a Toad with a blue vest, who may be Toad, and who makes various cameos in the game, including an appearance with Toadette in the intro where the two of them watch the Star Festival.
He also appears as one of many icons for a save file. Otherwise, the only appearances of red-spotted, blue-capped Toads in the game are Peach's two attendants in the introduction, both of whom also wear shiny capes. This game marks the appearance of a character very similar to Toad called Captain Toad who is the self-proclaimed Captain of the Toad Brigade.
Although earlier official bios for the game state that Captain Toad is equivalent to Toad, later games have declared Captain Toad and Toad separate characters, and Super Mario 3D World had the two co-existing, with Toad wearing a blue vest while Captain Toad was in red.
Wii , where he will offer to show help videos to the players in exchange for star coins. Like in the first game, Toad's appearance of a blue vest is on the box art of Super Mario Galaxy 2 as well as his head resuming its place as one of the many save icons for the game. Captain Toad also appears here. Various monochromatic Toads appear in Super Mario 3D Land , as does one who has red spots yet sports a blue vest.
He is mainly seen operating the cannons that provide Mario with access to the airship levels, and running the Red Toad Houses where players can obtain power-ups and access the StreetPass option from their Nintendo 3DS. He also hides in some of the levels and will either toss a Star Medal , a Power-Up, or a 1-Up Mushroom close to Mario in order to provide him with help when spotted with binoculars, just like the other Toads in the game.
While Toad makes his introduction through some brief appearances in the first world such as inside his Toad House , Toad must later be rescued from the first fake Bowser that Mario encounters at the end of World 1 after Toad and his Toad House vanish once Mario leaves the area. Toad is seen to be calling out for help from his cell as Mario attempts to avoid the impostor's attacks in order to save the mushroom retainer and defeat the impostor by stepping the switch at the end.
Once the cell is opened, Toad can be seen jumping happily and thanking Mario for his rescue. After his rescue, Toad will provide Mario with all forms of help throughout his journey.
Toad makes his final appearance in the last level Special 8-Crown. The player has the option to bounce upon Toad's head in order to reach the platform with the warp pipe. Once again, Toad is identified in this level as he is the only Red Toad to be sporting a blue vest the other numerous Red Toads in the level are wearing red vests.
Like in the original New Super Mario Bros. The Red Toad Houses consist of Toad throwing three Power-Ups to three platforms in which either Mario or Luigi can select the power-up to keep though all three power-ups can be taken at the same time if chosen. A bonus feature included within the Toad House mini-games includes Toad either jumping up excitedly in correspondence to the players if they were to win the game or shake his head in disappointment if the players were to lose.
Toad also appears when the player receives two digits at the end of a course and rewards the player with a power-up for their achievement.
In the second world, a Toad House appears to be in a conflict and a character, known as Nabbit makes an introduction by stealing a power-up from Toad. After Nabbit rushes off, Toad immediately appears out of his Toad House and informs the player of the situation. He then introduces the pipe cannons which players could use to transport themselves to different worlds to pursue a chase after the thief.
Toad also appears after a player captures Nabbit; when this happens Toad will give Mario and co a P-Acorn. In New Super Mario Bros. In Luigi's Mansion , Toad appears among the several Toads found throughout the mansion, [5] although the specific one that is Toad is unknown. The first of them appears in the foyer of the mansion where he can be seen crying. After Luigi comforts him, he informs Luigi that he was sent by Princess Peach in search of Mario in the mansion.
However, the Toad states that upon entering the mansion, he became frightened as he could not find Mario. He then decides to help Luigi in his search for Mario by saving the hero's progress. Other Toads can be found in several different locations throughout the game: the second floor Balcony , the first floor Washroom , and the Courtyard. Toad himself is also the one who calls Luigi through the middle telephone in the Telephone Room during the blackout.
Toad appears in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon. In the game, he and four other Toads blue, yellow, purple, and green are researching ghosts in various different mansions by playing the role of Professor E.
Gadd's assistants. It is revealed that Toad was imprisoned in a painting within the Haunted Towers. Sometime later, Luigi arrives at the Haunted Towers, and eventually finds the painting of Toad.
Using his Poltergust and flashlight, Luigi was able to rescue Toad out of the painting he was imprisoned in. After being saved, Toad is overjoyed with gratitude and calls Luigi a hero. As the duo continue on to the outer part of the Haunted Towers, they run into The Three Sisters by accident. Toad becomes frightened and attempts to escape the scene, but his means of an exit through a gate is unfortunately sealed immediately in the scene.
Throughout the battle, Toad appears frightened of the surrounding ghosts. Luigi is able to pull in Toad with the Poltergust and able to launch him from the vacuum in certain directions. Upon being launched, Toad is able to make a powerful impact with any object he comes into contact with by the force; as a result, being able to reveal secret areas and items. Toad also reveals his fear of deep bodies of water within the adventure promptly having Luigi carry him over such bodies of water.
After the two find a computer with access to Professor E. Gadd's lab within the Haunted Towers, Toad gives his thanks to Luigi and teleports back to the lab. In the ending of the game, Toad along with the other Toad assistants teleport to the post-battle scene with the pieces of the Dark Moon in their arms. Toad himself hands Luigi the central piece upon reaching the group consisting of Luigi, Mario, and Professor E.
As Luigi and the Toads hold up the pieces of the dark moon to the sky, the pieces shine brightly and form a new Dark Moon. With the moon in place, the previously mind corrupted ghosts revert back to their peaceful ways and celebrate with the heroes. The ghosts even go onward to giving Toad and the other Toads rides on them.
In the final scene, Toad joins the Mario Bros. Gadd, and several ghosts for a group picture. Within the ending credits, it is revealed the ghosts have truly gone back to their happier states and even reveal to be on friendly terms with Toad and co. Whenever Toad walks, his footsteps make squeaky sounds. This is a possible reference to the The Super Mario Bros. Upon arriving at the Grand Lobby , the Toads can be seen handling Peach's luggage. When the luggage collapses, and the blue Toad gets stuck between the bags, Toad rushes in to try and pull him out.
After everyone has checked in, hotel owner Hellen Gravely personally escorts them to their rooms on the fifth floor. The following night, everybody except Luigi, including Toad, is turned into a painting by King Boo. When Luigi himself narrowly avoids the same fate and meets up with E. Gadd, he asks for the professor's help in rescuing his trapped friends and family. After defeating Amadeus, Luigi frees Toad from the painting and brings him to E.
Gadd to stay in his lab. However, while Luigi is exploring the upper floors of the hotel, E. Gadd sends Toad to recover an upgrade for the Poltergust G in the Boilerworks and loses contact with him. Gadd informs Luigi of this when the latter needs the upgrade to progress through the Spectral Catch , so Luigi returns to the Boilerworks to rescue Toad and recover the needed equipment.
During the ensuing escort mission, multiple teams of ghosts will attempt to capture Toad. If the lead Slinker of any given team manages to escape with Toad, the player receives a Game Over. Luigi manages to return Toad safe and sound to the lab and have the upgrade added to the Poltergust. Toad remains safe in the lab until after Luigi rescues Mario in the Master Suite , at which point King Boo finds the lab and captures E.
Gadd and the Toads. King Boo takes them to the rooftop , where he tries to trap the entire group in a single painting, only for Luigi to avoid capture once again thanks to the timely intervention of Polterpup. After Luigi defeats King Boo and the hotel collapses, Luigi frees everyone from the group painting, and the group works together to help the now friendly ghosts build a new hotel where the old one stood.
Toad again drives the bus as the group bids E. Gadd and the ghosts farewell as they return home. However, in the Prima Games guide, Toad refers to the aforementioned as well as the one in the castle who offers tutorial advice against Bowser, [8] who more coherently explains the situation about Princess Peach's voice with the scene's other Toad after the battle.
Gadd about his latest invention, the time machine. This is due to the fact that Princess Peach along with her two Toad accomplices Toadiko and Toadbert had decided to take the machine for a spin to go back to the past and then return back.
Though the professor assures the group that Peach will soon return, Toadsworth soon falls unconscious while worrying about the safety of the princess. At this time, Toad asks for Mario to fetch a refreshroom in order to help Toadsworth regain his consciousness back. After Mario returns with the mushroom, Toadsworth immediately awakes and this occurs right at the time when E. Gadd's time machine had finally returned from its time traveling.
The time machine appears in a heavily damaged state and this causes the group to investigate more closer until finally the door of the machine opens. Instead of Peach, a Junior Shrooboid appears from the machine and this appearance of the alien causes all the other Toads except for Toadsworth and Toad himself to flee from the main hall. After Mario defeats the monster, Toad bravely enters inside the time machine to check if the princess was still inside it.
Unfortunately, he did not find anything and immediately begins to panic. However at this time, E. Gadd announces that a new time hole had appeared outside of the castle.
Before following the professor, Toad turns back to the Mario bros. However, Luigi immediately refuses which causes Toad to be a tad upset but before he leaves, he asks Luigi to perform a jump to see if he was ready for the adventure. After Luigi performs a successful jump, Toad then goes outside to see the time hole. The Mario bros. Immediately, Toadsworth appears out of nowhere while shouting out Mario's name but instead he slams into the time hole's base causing Luigi to fall in and be pulled back in time to the shock of Mario, Toad, and E.
Mario then immediately jumps in after his brother, thus beginning their adventure in the Mushroom Kingdom of the past. For the rest of the game, Toad can be found back at Peach's castle in the Mushroom Kingdom of the present and he can be visited at any time after the Mario bros. He can be seen in the main hall alongside Professor E. When the Mario Bros.
After the bros. This causes Bowser to gain the powers of the Elder Princess Shroob. In the ending of the game, Toad along with the Mario bros. Gadd, and Toadsworth can be seen bidding farewell to the baby bros. In both Mario Superstar Baseball and Mario Super Sluggers , a red-colored Toad often believed to be Toad [ citation needed ] appears as a playable character. The Red Toad has stronger power and speed stats than the other Toad colors, but he is never identified as the Toad.
In the opening for Mario Superstar Baseball , Red Toad is frequently shown with the other notable characters in the game mainly Peach and Daisy as they begin their match. He is first seen in the outskirts of Peach Ice Garden , where he runs up to Mario and his team and leads them to a statue resembling Princess Daisy. Toad reveals to the group that Bowser Jr.
After meeting up with Toadsworth, Mario and his group head back to Toad to ask if they could burrow the statue in order to save Peach, only to find him fighting Hammer Bro that was trying to take the statue. They defeat the enemies and Toad thanks them, agreeing to let them take the statue themselves after some initial worrying. He then joins the team in order to protect the rest of the characters and back them up. In the opening video to the game, Toad is seen arriving at the Baseball Kingdom via a small cruiser along with his good friends from the Mushroom Kingdom Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, Daisy, and Birdo.
After arrival, Red Toad and co. Toad is seen during one of the matches where he is shown to be running in order to catch the soaring baseball in the Peach Ice Garden Stadium; however, he accidentally crashes into a giant Freezie and becomes frozen solid fortunately a Blue Toad crashes into the frozen Toad and the Freezie and frees him.
Red Toad is later seen with Peach and Daisy where they are anxiously watching a scene of a baseball match. They are seen cheering when Luigi is shown to have caught the ball earning their team a victory. At the ending of the game, the cut scenes reveal that Toad and co. The name of each member is listed as Toad. It is unknown if the joke is that these are all one Toad or if they are separate Toads. Toad has the same look as the rest of his species. He normally wears a blue vest, brown shoes, and a large diaper-like piece of clothing for pants.
His appearance often depicts him as looking like a small human child with his miniature size and recognizable human-like features. In the games starting from Mario Party 4 , Toad's vest is given an added gold lining. He has a red-spotted mushroom cap, indicating slight cowardice and heavy obedience.
There has been some ambiguity and inconsistency as to whether or not Toad's mushroom bulb is in fact a hat. I'd tip my hat to you, but neither of us wants to see that. However, an interview with Super Mario Odyssey producer Yoshiaki Koizumi contradicted this; it was stated that the mushroom bulb is a part of Toad's head and not a cap. Like most of the characters in the series, Toad has changed very little appearance-wise throughout the years since his debut in Super Mario Bros.
The only recognizable differences in his current look consists of his physical appearance which included some defining factors in the recent years such as redesigned eyes and a gold outline that was recently added to his traditional vest , and the corrected number of spots on his mushroom cap the number of spots on his cap was inconsistent in the older Mario games.
The addition of the red polka dot on the top of his head is first seen in the game Luigi's Mansion where even Luigi acknowledges the top spot and called it lovely if he is to take a picture of Toad with the Game Boy Horror. In other aspects, Toad is very small in size a trait shared within his species. In relation to his body size, he also has small, thin arms and no legs with just his feet. He also has a large head that is mostly dominated by the red-spotted mushroom cap on his head.
Overall, Toad's head appears to have a strong resemblance to various mushrooms most notably the Super Mushroom. While having the look of a child in his current appearance as most of the members of his species do , it can be arguable that his earlier appearances especially in his game appearances during the Nintendo 64 era portray him as looking much more childish in design with his very large head and miniature body more so than his current appearance.
Surprisingly, a piece of artwork of Toad for the game Mario Party has Toad's legs showing. Toads have never been portrayed with their legs showing in-game artwork before or after Mario Party. In the graphics for Super Mario Bros. A small controversy arose with Super Mario Bros. However, Toad's blue mushroom cap is actually due to the graphical incapability of the NES rather than a continuity thread.
In remakes of Super Mario Bros. However, this appears to be a trend with a homage to Toad's sprite depiction in the original Super Mario Bros. Toad's appearance in the Super Smash Bros. Melee , Toad had a darker skin tone, as well as an overall stubbier appearance, reflecting his then-recent appearances in Mario Kart 64 and Mario Party 3. Brawl , Toad's model was updated to match his current appearance since games like Mario Party 4 , though with a monotone color scheme, as well as realistic details in his clothing and shoes.
Ultimate , Toad receives simple detailing in his clothing and shoes, as well as a subdued color scheme, albeit not to the same extent as Super Smash Bros. Toad is generally seen to be in an attire consisting of a blue vest or waistcoat , white pants, and large brown shoes. In some Mario games and as well as the early Mario cartoons, Toad is depicted to be wearing a red vest as opposed to his traditional blue vest.
As a result, Toad's appearances with a red vest sometimes result in confusion among whether or not it is truly Toad himself who is making an appearance in these games or not. Even without his red vest, Toad's general appearance is often shared by many other Toads in the Mushroom Kingdom; thus, further causing confusion between his appearances.
However, later Super Mario games such as Super Mario 3D Land have made attempts to differentiate Toad from the other Toads by making him the only Red Toad Toads with red head spots to be sporting a blue vest. While he is commonly seen in his traditional clothing style consisting of his standard vest and pants throughout the series, Toad is sometimes seen to be sporting different wardrobes in various games.
This change is first witnessed in some of the earlier spin-off titles as some of the Mario Sports games for the Nintendo 64 such as the Mario Tennis and Mario Golf titles for the system has Toad is seen wearing a blue shirt with a large gold button that may have served as his original sports outfit.
Additionally, Mario's Tennis for the Virtual Boy depicts Toad in the same tennis wear as the other playable male characters. Regardless of his new looks, Toad's clothing style for the later Mario Sports game have him wearing his usual default clothing from the general Mario games his regular clothing including his vest as opposed to owning a separate sports outfit.
Toad has also been seen in different outfits and costumes throughout the various Mario games; however, it is the Mario Party series that has given Toad his most different and customized appearances.
In Mario Party 2 , Toad along with the other main characters often dressed up in different costumes in respect to the boards that the characters were playing on such as as a wizard in Horror Land or a live boat in Pirate Land. In Mario Party 4 , Toad is depicted to wearing a fancy white and black striped suit with a rather shiny red bow tie in regards to his status as one of the main hosts in the game in the ending credits of the game, Toad reveals that he and the other hosts had received their new clothes through the appearance of the Party Cube.
This is no different for Toad himself as games like Super Mario 3D Land portrayed him in his very own Tanooki suit with a red scarf whenever he has gained the power from a Super Leaf thus, becoming Tanooki Toad.
His alternate forms from The Super Mario Bros. Super Show also portray him in different clothing styles such as his Super Toad form which portrays him with a reversed color pattern of a red mushroom cap and white spots and the Toad Warrior which depicts him in a typical biker outfit.
The Mini Toad toy from the Mario vs. Donkey Kong games also stays true to Toad's original Fire Toad form by having a reversed colored mushroom cap whenever it becomes a Fire Mini Toad. In Mario Kart Tour , aside from his default appearance, Toad also has a Party Time outfit which was similar, only with the addition of sleeves to his vest, wearing a red and white striped coned party cap, a red bow tie, and a party mask bearing the likeness of Mario's moustache.
Another outfit, called Pit Crew, has him wearing a blue bodysuit as well as a blue helmet. Toad is often portrayed as cheerful almost to the point of childishness; his official artworks often show him with a wide smile on his face. He is also excitable and prone to panic and is often shown running around frantically. Toad is also sometimes seen as somewhat of a coward, although he seems to be actually aware of his own cowardice. Despite this, Toad still manages to be brave when the need truly calls for it, and often helps Mario on his multiple adventures.
In some Mario Kart images and various Mario media such as the comic series , Toad has also been portrayed as accident-prone or simply unlucky. While Toad does occasionally get upset and has been described as an impatient character, [11] he is often kind and polite, generally rooting for the well being for just about anyone who he calls his friend.
However, he is also quite rash, which often leads him into trouble and forces him to adjust his attitude and fix the problems he unintentionally causes. In the Valiant Comics series, Toad is dedicated to his work as a mushroom retainer, drinking coffee from a cup that reads "World's Greatest Mushroom Retainer". In particular, Toad constantly flirts with Princess Peach and ends up getting in trouble with Mario after he catches the pair having sex.
In this game, Toad has a rather deep voice that sounded much like a young adolescent. In the first three Mario Party installments and the Japanese release of Mario Kart 64 , Toad has a very high-pitched and almost childlike voice. In the English release of Mario Kart 64 , he sounds like a small child, often screaming in a high voice or cheering in his speech. In Super Mario Advance and forward as a result of Jen Taylor being introduced as his new voice actress , his voice is changed to a less high level, but it is given a screech to it.
In The Super Mario Bros. In the games department, Toad's voice was originally portrayed by Tomoko Maruno for the Japanese version of Mario Kart 64 and later the first three Mario Party titles and Isaac Marshall for the overseas version. In tandem with his cheerful personality, Toad is often heard yelling, "Yahoo! Toad is also a very fast character, having the highest speed of the group as well. These strengths were again seen in Super Mario 3D World.
This is further influenced in the Mario Kart series, where he is a lightweight character and very often an extremely fast one. However, both Super Mario Bros. Wario's Woods gives him the unique ability to walk up walls, but this ability has not been seen since.
Toad uses a Hammer in Mario Party 3 , but this too has not been seen recently. His appearance in Super Smash Bros. Melee as a shield for Princess Peach further hints at the fact that he has good endurance. In the Super Princess Peach minigame Toad Jump , it is revealed that Toad can perform a kind of Flutter Jump to increase his jumps simply by flapping his arms around wildly after jumping though the length of how long he can keep this jump depends on how much the player blows into the mic.
Toad also has access to Mario's power-ups and is skilled at riding Yoshis. He is generally considered an expert on items, often giving Mario power-ups and telling him what he needs to do. Toad has also been shown to be able to perform a spin jump as seen in games such as Mario Sports Mix. While it is not common within the Mario franchise, Toad has a unique ability to emit spores. This ability is given a preview in the earlier games when he is hit by a powerful force as seen in Mario Tennis for the Nintendo 64 and the Super Smash Bros.
Mario Sports Mix further explores Toad's hidden talent by allowing him to use spores to cause mushrooms to sprout from the ground. Toad is capable of using this move as a recovery move. Toad is also able to create a shield of spores as a deflective move.
Additionally, Toad's special move in this game involves him emitting many spores to cause gargantuan mushrooms to grow from the ground. These large mushrooms are then able to move in a rotational pattern, and are able to knock out any opponent who attempts to get closer to the mushrooms.
Toad completes his attack by throwing a shot full of fungi material at his goal. In one instance in World , Toad demonstrates to the player how to use the Propeller Block by simply jumping off a platform with the block from high above and slowly descending below to the flagpole when seen through the binoculars. In some of the later worlds and levels, Toad is seen to have used the powers of the Super Leaf and gained access to becoming Tanooki Toad within the Red Toad Houses.
In some of his appearances through the use of the binoculars in the earlier levels, Toad is also seen to be able to make jumps rivaling those of Mario as he scampers through the level to show Mario the goal point. Additionally, episodes of The Super Mario Bros.
He is even one of five characters the other four being Mario, Luigi, Bowser, and Wario who can turn into different, more powerful forms; he becomes Super Toad when touching a Fire Flower and the Toad Warrior when touching a Starman. Often, Toad is made into a tutorial-type character or host, who introduces the player to the game such as in Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour. Rarely, he plays the role of side-kick and is occasionally a full-fledged hero.
He is also occasionally a "damsel-in-distress" but never the main one. He is usually seen as a helper, giving items and performing various other duties, such as running Toad Houses in Super Mario Bros.
His role as a tutorial character and as Peach's caretaker seems to have recently been taken over by Toadsworth.
However, this replacement has allowed Toad to take more active roles in the Super Mario games such as having him being the host of the Toad House areas.
While he is often featured as a playable character within the various Mario spin-off titles, he sometimes plays the role of the referee within some titles. Toad is Princess Peach's obedient servant.
While he is not as doting as Toadsworth , he cares for her deeply and would do anything for her. In the Super Mario Bros. The Bird! However, Toad is not nearly as valiant in the games: his fear of Bowser is much more pronounced than in the cartoons, and he often ends up kidnapped just the same as Peach or is simply reduced to running to the Mario Bros.
The Super Smash Bros. Although Toad is simply friends with Peach and generally exhibits no romantic affection towards her in most Mario media, his appearance in a virtual magazine for the Satellaview depicts Toad having romantic and sexual relationships with Peach.
Toad is good friends with Mario and Luigi. He respects their bravery and heroism, although some games reveal that he doesn't look up to Luigi as much as Mario, and in Super Mario 64 DS , Toad even mistakes Luigi for his brother at first, and later belittles him for losing his cap.
In most games, however, Toad is nothing but loyal to both Mario Bros. In the cartoons and most of the comics, Toad acts as a sidekick and constant companion for the brothers during their heroic adventures. In the aforementioned Satellaview magazine, however, Toad crosses a line with Mario by engaging in perverse activity with his friend's love interest.

In Super Mario 64 DS , Toad expresses doubts about Wario, believing that he would rather run away with the Power Stars than help the other protagonists, and despite being intimidated by Wario, brazenly insults him by saying his cap smells terrible and telling him to wash it more often.
The only Mario Party series team name they have shared is "Surprise Attackers". Toad was left on his own at an early age, and managed to survive on the streets of many magic lands by his quick wit and fast feet. He met the princess when he was delivering pizzas and attempting to sell encyclopedias to the Mushroom Kingdom Palace. She was so impressed by his eagerness to improve himself, that she got him a job in the royal kitchen.
And when King Koopa took over the Mushroom Kingdom, and the princess was cast on the streets, Toad repaid her kindness by serving as her guide, loyal servant, and diplomatic adviser.
