Spiked Turtletoad
Kingdom Hearts III
When it gets puffed up, you get roughed up. Watch out for that flying press once its belly fills with air! The shell on its back is Keyblade-proof, so you'll have to find softer places to smack. It can swallow nearby Flowersnakes, then sprout them as toxic turrets. And if it swallows you… Don't let it swallow you.

The Spiked Turtletoad is an Unversed that appears in Kingdom Hearts III.

Design

The Spiked Turtletoad is a monstrous Unversed that resembles the Turtletoad, but is a different color and has spikes. The Turtletoad has whiskers to help it fight in battle.

Strategy

The Spiked Turtletoad can do a flying press to flatten the player and eat Flowersnakes to grow as turrets. It can also eat the player. The Spiked Turtletoad's back is attack-proof. The Spiked Turtletoad that spawns in Door Vault where Vanitas animates Randal's Unversed monstrosity will always spawn with Flowersnakes already installed on its back.

Spiked Turtletoads are often accompanied by smaller enemies so the player should focus on attacking them first to build a formchange before taking on the big enemy. Once achieved, go up to its face and keep attacking. Formchanges that transform the Keyblade into big weapons, such as the hyper hammer and drill punch, are the best choices since they are always guaranteed to push back the toad. Once acquired, the Ultima Weapon Shotlock can also destroy a Spiked Turtletoad in a single salvo on lower difficulties.
