A thinking mushroom. Stupid and nasty, therefore, when it gets together with others in a group.

—Official description, Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc

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 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 Vortex Fist, he can annihilate an entire group in one hit.

A Podocrock in Rayman: Hoodlums' Revenge

In Rayman 3, Podocrocks appear in the Fairy Council and the Land of the Livid Dead. At 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.

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 Goombas, similar mushroom enemies which appear in the Mario series.
