Mud Bud

The Mud Bud is a pet summon item sold by the Zoologist after defeating Plantera. It summons Plantero, a miniature version of Plantera, that follows the player.

Plantero keeps pace with the player by flying in a manner similar to Plantera's second form.

The Plantera Seedling is a similar item, however it is exclusive to Master Mode, and is directly dropped by Plantera upon defeat with a 1/4 (25%) chance.
