Hikinura is a normally slow moving Amphibian that resides dark caves. Like Mizutsune, it uses a sort of bubblefoam to help it in battle.

Hikinura
X	Amphibians that live in caves. Hikinura seem slow and clunky at first, but once they’re angry they become dangerously fast and slippery.

Physiology

Hikinura has a similar body shape to Tetsucabra, but its head resembles a Common Toad’s. Its body is bumpy and yellow, with white in its underside and legs. It has a few large darker colored spots spread around its body as well. Hikinura has a somewhat long tail, which is also a white color.

Behavior

Hikinura hunts just about anything smaller than it, including its own young. They secrete a foam of some kind that helps keep themselves moist, but it can also help them escape larger threats or fight when they need to.

Abilities

Hikinura is usually a slow monster. Its physical attacks include claw swipes and body slams. It can even lash out its tongue, but this doesn’t steal items like Chameleos. It’ll sometimes blow bubbles out of its hide and can sometimes fire them out from body slams.. Once Hikinura is enraged, it constantly oozes out foam, which makes itself slippery and mobile. It can spin in place to lash out with its tail, and even slide around a bit, leaving trails of bubbles. Its physical attacks will also deal water damage now.
