Zyphoid

A Zyphoid was a mushroom-like alien creature with three tentacles. The Zyphoids were mutated viruses from the Korthos Sector. They attacked the three of the Fongoid children so Ratchet rescued them. The Fongoid Mother said that they had not been seen on the planet in years, and stated something must have happened to the Zoni. This meant that the Zoni kept the Zyphoids away (until Dr. Nefarious' meddling scattered the Zoni around the Breegus System). The Zyphoids spawned from spores that could be destroyed by Ratchet.

Small Zyphoids
About the third of the size of Ratchet, these small mushrooms were found en masse. When three joined together, they could form into a larger zyphoid. They had only one eye.

Large Zyphoids
These were larger than Ratchet, and when attacked, would split into 3 smaller Zyphoids. The larger Zyphoids had three eyes.
