Attacks

  • Butterflies circle the protagonist's SOUL counter-clockwise (2 of these butterflies will be green if you Pray).
  • Butterflies rise from the bottom of the screen three at a time in rapid succession.

Strategy

  • To spare this monster, you first need to Pray and then collect at least one of the green butterflies on screen. These also heal the protagonist for 1HP each.
    • It is also possible to spare this monster by praying twice, even if no green butterflies are collected.
  • It is also possible to spare this monster by consoling it.
  • If found with Astigmatism, challenging Astigmatism will also meet Whismalot's spare conditions.
    • Note that this method will also work for Final Froggit.

Trivia

  • Whimsalot's name comes from Whimsun and Lancelot, the most famous knight of King Arthur's Round Table. Its name also may come from the fact that it "whims a lot."
  • Whimsalot is part of the Reaper Bird, one of the Amalgamates.
  • Losing its mask when spared or killed may be a reference to the battles with Meta Knight from the Kirby series. When defeated, the character in question loses his mask, then disappears.
  • As well as Whimsun, Whimsalot has quotes and flavor text that may be interpreted as references to depression and suicide.
