Yadokalin is an enemy that appears in Parasol Stars. It is an enemy exclusive to the game's third world, Ocean Star.
Etymology[]
Yadokalin's name comes from the Japanese word yadokari (宿借り?), meaning "hermit crab".
Trivia[]
- Design documents for Parasol Stars indicate that the enemy was at one point named Yamaton (やまとん Yamaton?) during development.
- This name may be a reference to Yamato, a hermit crab-themed boss appearing in the Taito game Darius II, released two years prior to Parasol Stars. Yamato would later go on to appear as a boss in Bubble Symphony.
