Golden Seedlings are a rare enemy that can spawn in place of a member of the seedling family. Each seedling-type enemy in a fight has a 1% chance of becoming a golden seedling on encounter (2.5% with Seedling Affinity equipped, and 7.5%/18.75% in Seedling Haven).
Instead of normal defense, damage dealt to Golden Seedlings is divided by 10, rounded up. Multi-hit moves only deal damage once, excluding Ice Rain. They also have a chance of fleeing from battle. This can only be prevented by Kabbu's Taunt skill.
A Golden Seedling is guaranteed to drop a Tangy Berry after defeat.
If the party flees, any Golden Seedlings will remain Golden Seedlings on re-encounter until the room is left.
