==Description==
==Description==
This awful amphibian likes to disrupt the party by casting fuddle. Thanks to its leathery skin, it is highly resistant to the extreme temperatures produced by Frizz, Sizz, and Crack spells. Furthermore, it never falls victim to its own spell. Fizzle out its fun before it fudges yours!

==Etymology==
An [[Wikipedia:axolotl|axolotl]] is a type of salamander known for pink pigmentation and intricate gill structure.
 
==Trivia==
*The Axolotl has the distinction of only appearing in remade versions of {{IV}}. It has a sprite and stats in the original {{Famicom}} version of the game, but it cannot be encountered anywhere. It shares this in common with four other seafaring monsters: [[Glugworm]], [[Mangler fish]], [[Maulrus]], and [[Terrornodon]].<ref>[https://tcrf.net/Dragon_Warrior_IV_(NES)#Unused_Sea_Enemies Dragon Warrior IV (NES) on The Cutting Room Floor]</ref>
