“	Good news! You have attracted a Mousemallow! This little piñata must have smelled a turnip in your garden.	”
–Leafos after the Mousemallow appears.

The Mousemallow is a pink mouse piñata. It is cute, and a relatively happy piñata whose favorite catchphrase is “chu-chu!”

You can often see this piñata hiding in holes, eating Turnips and Yams. They are not very sociable, mainly because of how much it’s afraid of being squished, but thankfully it doesn’t have to worry about the Elephanilla - the only piñata that refuse to be around the pink creature.

Much is made of the Mousemallow’s hearing and the edge it provides against predators. Then again, it has no escape plan beyond 'run' - and for Syrupent and Kittyfloss families to thrive, sacrifices must be made.

Appearance

The Mousemallow is a small rodent piñata with large ears, shaped similarly to the outline of a tennis racket, and a long tail. Most of its body is covered in different shades of pink and purple. It also has small whiskers and dark violet irises. Its ears have jagged designs in the center to its edges. It has a small head, and even a smaller body, and very small feet, and two small front teeth that poke out outside its mouth.

Rumors

• Leafos says that Elephanillas don’t like Mousemallows for some odd reason. This is true, as having Mousemallows anywhere near Elephanillas will make them run off. They will also prevent non-resident Elephanillas from coming inside the garden.

Glitches and Errors

• In the original Viva Piñata, all of the Mousemallow's variants appear to be white with only a hint of what their actual color is supposed to be. In Trouble in Paradise, this was fixed, and they appear more vibrant.
