The '''killer croaker''' is a monster that appears exclusively in ''[[Dragon Quest VIII]]''. It is a powerful variant of the frogface that hides a demonic face on its back.

==Characteristics==
As is the case with its other varieties, the killer croaker is only threatening when made to have its [[Wikipedia:Oni|Oni]]-like face turned towards the party. They have dark blue skin and pinkish-purple spots all over their bodies. Since the frogs can cast [[Thwack]] and unleash breath attacks from their demonic faces, it is highly recommended to use sleep-inducing moves and attacks capable of defeating them in a single blow in order to avoid confronting their unfavorable sides. Killer croakers appear most frequently at [[Day-night cycle|nighttime]] and only in areas that can be accessed through flight. Oddly enough, the killer croaker and its amphibian brethren are part of the [[Bug family]].
