Origins

The Pudgedevil was originally stated to be a monster that naturally inhabited the Dread Realm in the SFC guidebook for VI, but with the release of the DS guide this has been changed to state that the devils are Mortamor's attempt at mass-cloning Murdaw, being his most competent servant. This new origin is further supported in the monster's DQMJ3 bestiary entry, which states the species was grown from the former's cells and granted further power through magical amplification.
