After being helpfully reminded by an admin that it is all the more wiser to speak first and edit later. Iv'e decided to start a thread for the Monster section, for which I try my hardest to specialize in. If you find anything or have any knowledge we don't please share it here!

Here is all the facts I can lend:
-Duskers are extinct, due to frantic Knight material grinding. :C
-There is a Blarful Overtimer.
-The Royal Jelly is a Notable Jelly, not a common one.
-The Impostocube is also a Noteable Jelly.
-The Lichen Family is very diverse, It's not very easy to determine. :S
-Shouldn't the Slag Guard be a Notable Zombie? They are Skellies.

Good to have you onboard!

All elemental Devilites can be promoted or fired, just like normal Devilites. You will find a Blarful Overtimer, or a Layoafer Firebrander (yes, freeze-themed Devilites can still be firebranders), etc. I've just categorized all the Devilites under a certain "element", just like we do for Gremlins :) Lots of Devilite data for us to collect!

The lichen family has been expanded to include elemental jellies as well. Before, we just had Slooms, Toxigels, and Oilers, but that left Quicksilvers without a category. It was also strange in the sense that we have elemental Wolvers placed under the general Wolvers section, but each kind of elemental Lichen got their own category. Another argument (though admittedly weak) is that Slooms, Toxigels, Oilers, and Quicksilvers look like... lichen. Therefore, they are lichen. Weak argument, huh? xD

Lichens are an interesting monster category to document. You have elemental and non-elemental monsters, but the non-elemental monsters have a special property that makes them different than other monsters. And then you have to add the larger variation of the Toxigel and Sloom (Deep Sloombargo and Toxilargo, for example). Since the Deep Sloom/Sloombargo and the Toxilargos no longer appear as frequently, would they go under "Notable Lichen", now?

On topic of jellies: I haven't seen a Brute Jelly Cube, but someone suspects that if you set an Ice Cube on fire, the Ice Cube will degrade into a Brute Jelly. I haven't seen Ice Cubes for a while, so if someone can please confirm and note that in the monster page for me it will be greatly appreciated D8

Glad to see a fellow monster documentor! *waves cheerfully*

Glad to be here.

Brute Jellys are pink now, you've probably seen them hundreds of times and had no idea.

Also yeah, Lichens are very tough, their cousins dont have the cluster of orbs inside them, nor the ability to group into larger forms.
You'll notice if two Toxigels come close to each other they will ignore each other, meaning that Toxilargos and Sloombargos are in effect "elite" or possibly even the adult form of each monster.

I find it easier to catergorize all these monsters if you treat them as they are real living creatures other than fictional ones.

Also, it's nice to meet you too. *bows*
