'''Podocrocks''' are a type of mushroom enemy that appears in ''[[Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc]]'' and ''[[Rayman: Hoodlums' Revenge]]''. These mushrooms gather together to form small groups, which block [[Rayman]]'s path. By striking a group with his [[telescopic fist]], Rayman can kill a single Podocrock, necessitating mutiple punches to clear his pathway of them completely. With the [[Vortex Fist]], he can annihilate an entire group in one hit.
'''Podocrocks''', also known as '''Spikers''' in ''[[Rayman: Hoodlums' Revenge]]'', are a type of [[mushroom]] enemy that appear in ''[[Rayman 3]]'' and ''[[Rayman: Hoodlums' Revenge]]''. These [[mushroom]]s gather together to form small groups of six, which block [[Rayman]]'s path. By striking a group with his [[telescopic fist]], [[Rayman]] can kill a single Podocrock, necessitating multiple punches to completely clear his pathway of them. With a fully charged fist, he can annihilate an entire group in one hit. It would even have the power to defeat nine of them at a stroke. An uncharged hit with the [[Heavy Metal Fist]] destroys five of the Podocrocks, whereas a fully charged [[Heavy Metal Fist]] has the potential to destroy 21 of them.


In ''[[Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc|Rayman 3]]'', Podocrocks appear in [[the Fairy Council]] and [[the Land of the Livid Dead]].
In ''[[Rayman 3]]'', Podocrocks appear in [[the Fairy Council]] and [[The Land of the Livid Dead (Rayman 3)|the Land of the Livid Dead]]. At [[Rayman 3 (early production)|an early point in the game's development]], they were designed as two-legged, two-eyed [[mushroom]] caps with visible lamellae and were able to jump.


[[Category:Enemies]]
In ''[[Rayman: Hoodlums' Revenge]]'', Podocrocks do not appear in groups, and they can move to attack [[Rayman]].
 
The Podocrocks bear a slight resemblance to the [[Goomba]]s, similar mushroom enemies which appear in the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mario_%28series%29 ''Mario'' series].
