Variants

Mini Pi'illoids are support background enemies released by Pi'illodium in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team. Mini Pi'illoids closely resemble Pi'illodium's head, except they always have red eyes, and their faces lack engraved mouths. At the start of the battle with Pi'illodium, it releases four Mini Pi'illoids, the maximum there ever is on the battlefield at any one time, and it can release more of them on its turn. In battle, their role is to be used in one of Pi'illodium's attacks and to heal it and its wings when need be; they do so by firing a laser at the robot's head or wings. Mini Pi'illoids can heal Pi'illodium by 40 HP for each Mini Pi'illoid, for a combined total of 160 HP. Pi'illodium's wings are healed by 45 HP per Mini Pi'illoid healing, but only when both wings have been disabled; when the wings regain their full health, the Mini Pi'illoids go back to idling in the background. They can be manually picked off one by one with the use of Taunt Balls.

Pi'illodium may use a Mini Pi'illoid in one of its attacks, spinning near it to smack it at Mario and Luigi, attempting to make it explode on the Bros. If the Bros. send it back, it turns into a rally until either side fails to receive the Mini Pi'illoid and it explodes on or near the losing side. This attack can inflict the Dizzy status effect. Regardless of the outcome, the Mini Pi'illoid used in this attack is subtracted from the Mini Pi'illoids currently in the background, and thus, this attack cannot be performed if there are no Mini Pi'illoids in the background.

When Pi'illodium is defeated, any active Mini Pi'illoids drop out of the air and are also defeated.

In the Battle Ring, Pi'illodium X is accompanied by Mini Pi'illoids X, which have stronger healing beams.
