- "A rustic combination of a baked yam and a toy helicopter. It grates its body and sends gunk flying."
- — Battle Memory
Grated Yammonsters are enemies in Mother 3. They appear in Sunshine Forest, replacing the weaker incarnations of Yammonsters from Chapter 4 onward.
Grated Yammonsters have the appearance of a light-brown cactus with a propeller-like sprout on the head, striking a taunting pose. The Battle Memory states they are a combination of a baked yam and a toy helicopter, but they are not listed as chimeras.
Like their relatives, they do not roam, but they can rotate 360 degrees to always face the party; they also often guard unopened gift boxes.
Battle[]
Grated Yammonsters have a relatively high HP and Offense. They can cough up phlegm to solidify a target, and also wield PK Freeze β, which can potentially annihilate an unprepared/underleveled party. Their battle theme is the hard-to-combo Back Beat Battle.
Grated Yammonsters are extremely weak to PK Freeze, and they are vulnerable to PK Fire. They rarely drop a Magic Tart upon defeat.
Its battle sound is Battle Sound 22 which falls under Code Numbers 502 for regular attack, 503 for Smaaaash! and 504 for Miss.
