Platypunks are short, round creatures with duckbills, bird-like claws, long, monkey-esque tails, and a Mohawk. They are often depicted as being white and silver furred and their eyes have a roundness to them that is similar to that seen in [[Slime]] eyes.
Platypunks are short, round [[Beast family|creatures]] with duckbills, bird-like claws, long, monkey-like tails, and Mohawks on their heads. Most of their fur is white, with darker grey sections around their eyes, their mohawks, and the ends of their tails. Their eyes have a roundness to them that is similar to that seen in [[Slime]] eyes.


In terms of strength, Platypunks aren't too strong, often being one of the weakest enemies in the games they appear in. Their methods of attack have varied between spitting water, spinning out with their tails, or viciously scratching with their claws.
Platypunks aren't too strong, often being one of the weakest enemies in the games they appear, though they tend to be quite aggressive. Their methods of attack have varied between spitting water, spinning out with their tails, or viciously scratching with their claws. Their silly appearance is said to catch adventurers off-guard.


In the ''[[Slime MoriMori (series)|Slime MoriMori]]'' series they are established as the primary villains, though they still aren't very strong.

The Platypunk is a monster in the series.

Characteristics[edit | edit source]

Platypunks are short, round creatures with duckbills, bird-like claws, long, monkey-like tails, and Mohawks on their heads. Most of their fur is white, with darker grey sections around their eyes, their mohawks, and the ends of their tails. Their eyes have a roundness to them that is similar to that seen in Slime eyes.

Platypunks aren't too strong, often being one of the weakest enemies in the games they appear, though they tend to be quite aggressive. Their methods of attack have varied between spitting water, spinning out with their tails, or viciously scratching with their claws. Their silly appearance is said to catch adventurers off-guard.

In the Slime MoriMori series, they are established as the primary villains, though they still aren't very strong.
