| | The '''Toad Brigade''' is a group of five [[Toad (species)|Toads]] that aid [[Mario]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. It seems likely they are the same Toads who first accompanied Mario and [[Princess Peach]] to [[Isle Delfino]] in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', where they had minor roles and no individual personalities. At this point in time, though, they had not formed the Toad Brigade. |

| The '''Toad Brigade''' is a group of six adventurous [[Toad (species)|Toads]] that aid [[Mario]] through some games, starting with ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. With [[Captain Toad]] as the leader, the Toad Brigade originally consisted of [[Hint Toad]], [[Banktoad]], [[Yellow Toad (Toad Brigade)|Yellow Toad]] and [[Mailtoad]]. From ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'' onwards, [[Toadette]] is seen as a part of the group, bringing the official membership up to six.
| | Three of those Toads had also made a somewhat prominent appearance in ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]'', as assistants in the production of [[Mini Mario (toy)|Mini-Mario toys]]. There is also a possibility that they are the five playable Toads in ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'' and ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]''. |

They are then seen throughout several galaxies in search for the stars, and often cheer Mario on during battles. They often arrive to provide a [[Launch Star]] to Mario on their ship in order to help him progress.

| The five members of the Toad Brigade each have special attributes: the leader is the [[Captain Toad|Toad Brigade Captain]] who, despite trying to come off as brave is always fleeing at the first sight of trouble, making up ridiculous excuses along the way. This is first proven at the [[Space Junk Galaxy]], as he mutters that he is afraid to board the airships. He can be seen as rather lazy. He always has a miners light on his head and a backpack on his back. The [[Hint Toad|blue Toad]] wears glasses and often gives Mario advice in levels. [[Yellow Toad (Toad Brigade)|Yellow Toad]] is very lazy and happy-go-lucky, and is either sleeping, much to the annoyance of a yellow [[Luma]], or spinning around in circles. The [[Banktoad|green Toad]] carries a pickaxe and often sings songs while digging with it. The purple Toad is the [[Mailtoad]]. He will give Mario letters from [[Princess Peach|Peach]] or [[Luigi]] when received. He also enjoys snorkeling, and can often be found underwater or with a snorkel mask.

Additionally, the Brigade does not seem to know as much about the Lumas as they did before. The Starshroom used in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' was stated by brigade members who reveals that the Lumas built it for them so they could return to follow Mario to help him on his quest. Also, they do not talk about their previous exploits and some have different roles in comparison to the original game. For example, the green Toad now is a [[Banktoad]] and not an adventurer as he was in the previous game. [[Mailtoad]] continues to give Mario letters. Additionally, Mario can give Banktoad some of his [[Star Bit]]s. |

| | Throughout the game, the Toad Brigade follows the [[Starship Mario]] using their Starshroom. Mario can go onto to their Starshroom simply by using a teleportation pad on the Starship Mario in order to speak with them. There is also a [[1-Up Mushroom]] each time Mario teleports to their ship. They sometimes assist him on his journey but generally they are just seen exploring the areas rather than looking for power stars. In the Bowser levels, the Toads are sometimes seen deep within the area, with the Toads often having a [[coin]] for Mario to collect. In the ending credits, the Toads are seen celebrating within the credits as Mario finally gets the cake that he had earned from saving [[Princess Peach]]. It is unknown if they still become Royal Guards. |

| [[Captain Toad]] reappears in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]''. In this game, he is a playable character in his own puzzle levels called [[Captain Toad's Adventures]] where the player can not jump and must collect five [[Green Star]]s. He also appears in several other levels, and awards Mario and the other characters with a Green Star when found. He is the only Toad Brigade member in the game; while yellow, green and purple [[Toad (species)|Toads]] similar to his crew can be seen with Captain Toad in a [[Clear Pipe]] back to the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] during the credits, they only act as hosts of the [[Toad House]]s.

| ====''Super Mario Odyssey''====
| |
| The Toad Brigade appears once again in ''Super Mario Odyssey''. [[Mailtoad]] returns, unlike in ''Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker'', as the employee of the [[regional coin]] side of certain [[Crazy Cap]] shops and appears in the [[Dark Side]] once the main mission is completed; likewise, [[Yellow Toad (Toad Brigade)|Yellow Toad]] appears on the yellow coin side as well as in the Dark Side. Toadette is added to the group, known in-game as "Archivist Toadette." She rewards the player after they have completed achievements, which they can view by talking to her. The blue Toad is now known as [[Hint Toad]], and will give Mario the locations of [[Power Moon]]s for fifty coins. Banktoad also appears in the [[Lost Kingdom]] and [[Bowser's Kingdom]]. Captain Toad appears in most of the kingdoms, giving Mario a Power Moon if spoken to; unlike in the ''Super Mario Galaxy'' games, he is usually in a separate location than the rest of his crew. The Toad Brigade's theme also plays while talking to him.

| |
| Captain Toad stars in ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'' as a playable main character along with Toadette, who joins the Brigade. All of the other members of the Toad Brigade (except for Mailtoad who is absent from this game) also appear in various stages to help the captain: Blue Toad gives him [[Super Gem]]s or [[Super Mushroom]]s upon being found, Yellow Toad sleeps and can additionally cause Captain Toad or Toadette to fall asleep should they stand near him, and the Banktoad is seen reading a map in most of his appearances throughout the game. Each Toad wears an explorer outfit with a backpack to match Captain Toad's.

| |
| The three other Toad Brigade members also appear in the first set of levels in the bonus stages. In these stages, the goal is for Captain Toad to find the three Toads scattered around the stage and lead them to a platform that only lifts once four characters are standing on it to reach the Power Star. If any of the other Toad Brigade members are hit by an enemy, however, the player automatically loses a life rather than the Toad turning into a small form akin to Captain Toad and Toadette. The Toad Brigade members also make cameos in the beginning of the Challenge levels, the ending of the [[Mummy-Me]] levels and in the credits.
| |
| | |
| ===''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''===
| |
| Captain Toad appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', functioning as a background element in [[New Donk City Hall (stage)|New Donk City Hall]]. Captain Toad can be seen standing on top of a building, in addition to sometimes appearing in the [[Odyssey]]. Captain Toad also appears as the enhanced form of [[Toad]]'s [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]].
| |
| | |
| Toadette also appears, donning her explorer's outfit. She is a master spirit, leading expeditions in the temple area. Toadette's expeditions take 2 hours to complete; thus, players have to check her expeditions the most frequently.

| |
| Captain Toad and Toadette in her explorer outfit (referred to in-game as Toadette (Explorer)) appear as drivers in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' starting in the [[Exploration Tour (2020)|2020 Exploration Tour]]. Their [[Special skill (Mario Kart Tour)|special skills]] are the [[Hammer]] and [[Double Bob-ombs]], respectively.

| |'''Captain Toad''', known as the '''Toad Brigade Captain''' prior to ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'', is the leader of the Toad Brigade. He often wears a headlamp on his head while exploring the galaxies and is seen being in charge. As a result of this, he is sometimes seen fixing things such as their ship that broke in the events of ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. In both games he is portrayed as a little bit afraid of the challenges, though his loyalty to [[Princess Peach]] encourages him to keep helping [[Mario]] throughout his adventure. His level of cowardice varies between these games; while in ''Super Mario Galaxy'' he leaves himself behind so that the rest of the Brigade can do the work, in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' he is a more active and bold (though still afraid) member to get into dangerous situations. In ''Super Mario 3D World'', he has a playable role dedicated to finding [[Green Star]]s. | | |'''Toad''' (wearing a red vest) appears to be the leader of the Toad Brigade.

| He stars in ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'' as the main playable character and protagonist. Here, he is given a more greedy side but keeps his cowardice and loyal attitude. He ventures to save [[Toadette]] from [[Wingo]], and is later captured by Wingo as well, only to be saved by Toadette.
| |
| | |
| He reappears in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'' with the rest of his crew, but usually separate, waiting to give a [[Power Moon]] to Mario when he finds him. He appears in almost every kingdom.
| |
| | |
| He also appears in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]'', being the only Toad Brigade member to be present (aside from Toadette, who is a playable character). He can be found in hidden areas accessed by warp pipes and gives the player 50 flower coins upon being talked to.

She joined the Toad Brigade in the events of ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]''. While treasure hunting with Captain Toad, Wingo appears and grabs the Power Star the Toads just retrieved. While the Captain gets knocked over, she tries to grab back the Power Star, but fails; instead, Wingo flies away with both the Star and Toadette. After a long journey, Captain Toad arrives at Wingo's Watchtower, defeats Wingo and saves Toadette, retrieving another Power Star in the process. She co-stars in ''Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker'' as a playable character and the deuteragonist in the game. Here, she is [[Captain Toad]]'s partner and she is saved by him from [[Wingo]] and later saves him from Wingo later in the game. | | |'''Blue Toad''' is the brains of the operation. He wears glasses that can be seen in the ''Super Mario Galaxy'' series. Blue Toad often gives Mario advice throughout the levels. His information is the most helpful out of all the Toads. |

| Toadette officially becomes the sixth member of the Toad Brigade during the events of ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'' where she is the team's archivist. As the archivist, she resides in [[Mushroom Kingdom (Super Mario Odyssey)|Peach's Castle]] and tells Mario about achievements, handing Power Moons out to him when he completes them.

Hint Toad often gives Mario advice throughout the levels. His information is the most helpful out of all the Toads. Hint Toad also seems to not be very trusting of the [[Luma]]s and [[Rosalina]], even declaring that she might be a witch. He eventually sees them as his allies after Mario clears the [[Terrace (Super Mario Galaxy)|Terrace]]. In ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'', Hint Toad assists in more ways than before. Instead of offering advice, he now gives [[Super Mushroom]]s, [[1-Up Mushroom]]s, and even [[Super Gem]]s, apart from in the bonus levels, where he is the first to follow Captain Toad.

He is willing to take risks and pain to help Mario, as he has even swum in the freezing waters of [[Freezeflame Galaxy]] to look for purple coins. |

| ==Trivia== | | ==Trivia== |
| *In the [[Sand Spiral Galaxy]] in ''Super Mario Galaxy'', a generic red Toad is seen near the entrance with a [[Boo Mushroom]]. However, the only red Toad in the Brigade is [[Captain Toad]], who is always seen wearing his headlamp and backpack. | | *The Toad Brigade Captain is believed to be the character [[Toad]] as seen by their similar personalities, both being red-capped toads and the fact that Toad had artwork provided for ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. He is even referred to as '''Toad''' in his Super Mario Galaxy trading card, name and bio-wise. |
| **Similarly, in the [[Lost Kingdom]] in ''Super Mario Odyssey'', a blue Toad wearing the Toad Brigade attire can be found near [[Talkatoo]]; however, the only blue Toad in the Brigade is [[Hint Toad]], who is seen in the beginning of the stage instead and always wears glasses, unlike this Toad.
| | *Like Mailtoad, Banktoad wasn't given a name or a real occupation until a ''Super Mario Galaxy'' game, with ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' being the one for Banktoad. |
| ***Also, in ''Super Mario Galaxy'', during the mission [[Kamella's Airship Attack]] in the [[Space Junk Galaxy]], a generic blue Toad is seen stuck in ice, though it is possible that this is Hint Toad and he is missing his glasses. | | *On the cover of Super Mario Galaxy 2, Toad is shown to wear a blue vest, however ingame he is wearing a red vest. |
