I encountered a rare blue axolotl with golden gills, can someone add a render of these to the page? --187.144.18.35 17:58, 16 December 2020 (UTC)

Axolotl Textures
I extracted the files for 20w51a. Can someone put these Axolotl textures into isometric renders? Hipposgrumm (talk) 18:19, 16 December 2020 (UTC)


 * Why, the people making renders already have access to the textures, that's how they make them ;) – Unavailablehoax (talk) 18:21, 16 December 2020 (UTC)

i did some renders!--RetroPacifist (talk) 19:04, 16 December 2020 (UTC)

i dont know how to upload these properly but heres a link to an imgur album of them!! https://imgur.com/a/6iAYfUqRetroPacifist (talk) 19:11, 16 December 2020 (UTC)

Sounds
I want everyone to know that I am handling sounds. I have already located and extracted them. I will work on this periodically. – Unsigned comment added by Hipposgrumm (talk • contribs) at 19:19, December 16, 2020 (UTC). Sign comments with


 * The second sound in the idle_air section does not work currently. Thanks for adding the rest, though!PegasusDust (talk) 02:31, 17 December 2020 (UTC)


 * There was an extra r in air for the second sound, thanks for pointing that out. I've actually haven't seen this earlier; I made the sound table – Unavailablehoax (talk) 03:22, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

Unofficial Textures!
Why keeping the unofficial axolotls renders? Its Just a recreation.... Its unofficial! L7876 (talk) 16:23, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Were keeping them until we have the official ones. James Haydon (talk) 20:23, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

Axolotls are NOT tamable.
You guys realize that axolotls aren't tamable, right? – Unsigned comment added by 70.229.101.88 (talk) at 17:56, December 16, 2020 (UTC). Sign comments with


 * NO, they are actually if u could not tame them, why would they fight for you 75.85.177.38 19:52, 18 December 2020 (UTC)
 * No they're not, all you do is hold a (bucket of) tropical fish to tempt them, kind of like how all animals beg for their food. They're not tamed in any way shape or form. Dhranios (talk) (Join the wiki videos project!) 19:58, 18 December 2020
 * Someone made a comment on Talk:Caves & Cliffs claiming that they could be tamed with poisonous potatoes for some reason. I removed that comments but my point is that just because the mob will fight for you, does not mean its a tamable mob, just like Foxes and Ocelots. James Haydon (talk) 20:04, 18 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Jeb refers to them as "trustable" (like foxes or ocelots). Pescavelho (talk) 16:58, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Ultimate bruh moment I wanted a pet axolotl --75.108.112.191 19:47, 18 February 2021 (UTC)

I believe if you scoop them up in a hucket and replace them they dont leave to far from where you put them

Are axolotls amphibians or reptiles

 * The following discussion &#32;of a question is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.
 * Discussion is going off topic

According to this page, axolotls are amphibians, but User:Proeg A incorrectly calls them reptiles. So are axolotls amphibians or reptiles? The Great Spring (talk | contribs) (Tagalog translation) 00:40, 20 December 2020 (UTC)
 * A quick google search says axolotls are not reptiles. – JEC talk 01:20, 20 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Which means they are amphibians? The Great Spring (talk | contribs) (Tagalog translation) 01:21, 20 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes – JEC talk 01:22, 20 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Amphibians lay eggs in, water, while reptiles lay eggs on land (generally. Some reptiles give birth to live young.) Amphibians have relatively smooth skin, while reptiles have scaly skin. Most amphibians go through some kind of metamorphosis, while reptiles hatch or are born looking mostly like their parents. My question is if we really need that part of the trivia. We could add something about their life cycle like on the bee page, but the current form doesn't seem necessary. Comparing axolotl breeding to turtles, the single exception to Minecraft breeding rules, seems strange. PegasusDust (talk) 23:05, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Even if they were reptiles, they would not be the first, because chickens came first. Yes, birds are reptiles.--Olivia Eliza (talk) 08:30, 11 January 2021 (UTC)
 * , you might be joking but birds are birds, not reptiles (they come from reptiles but they are not reptiles in their own right)Humiebeetalk contribs 19:37, 22 March 2021 (UTC)
 * This discussion has devolved into a discussion about taxonomy so I will chime in and say that in the cladistic sense, birds are indeed dinosaurs and therefore reptiles, but the layman implications of this are of course ridiculous so even in the scientific community there is a distinction between "avian dinosaurs" and "non-avian dinosaurs".

Leucistic/Lucy
My edits changing instances of "leucistic" to "lucy" were reverted, I used "lucy" instead of leucistic as that is how the axolotl is refered to as internally. The edits have now been reverted as "leucistic" is "proper classification", what term do we use, is there a precedent? Pescavelho (talk) 19:11, 22 March 2021 (UTC)
 * In-game terms > anything else.  Nixinova   T   C   19:12, 22 March 2021 (UTC)

Blue reference
Shouldn't it be a reference to Wooper, who actually is based off an axolotl? It even has the same "gills" albeit with no arms. - 24.177.121.79 07:51, 10 June 2021 (UTC)
 * A personal observation cannot be put in the article. If you have a reliable source that confirms this, then it can be added. Otherwise, no. Amatulic (talk) 12:37, 10 June 2021 (UTC)

Thank you creators!
This page is great and I learned how to spawn axolotls to search for the rare blue one! But I do have a question. Does the stone around or above the axolotl need to be original? Like generated versions, so I cant just take some stone and place it back and axolotls wont spawn anymore cause its now an edited block?


 * It is defined by the  tag. TheGreatSpring (talk | contribs) (Tagalog translation) 05:32, 12 June 2021 (UTC)

Do Axolotols eat coral blocks?
I captured four Axolotls on Minecraft Bedrock edition for the Nintendo Switch.

I placed them in an "aquarium" which had coral blocks with sea pickles on top of them.

Now the axolotls appear to be eating the coral blocks. Is that correct? – Unsigned comment added by SozMike (talk • contribs) at 00:14, 15 June 2021 (UTC). Sign comments with


 * Axolotls can't do anything to coral blocks. When you say they're being eaten, does that mean they're turning gray? If so, you need to place water next to them for that to not happen – JEC <sub style="color:#f7c">talk @ 00:53, 15 June 2021 (UTC)

Damage dealt by axolotls
I saw one attack a guardian (which has 30 HP) fifteen times before the guardian died, implying 2 HP per attack. I'll add that to the article.

I notice that a single axolotl can't kill a drowned; they hit too hard for the axolotl to recover sufficiently by playing dead. But a single axolotl can kill a guardian.

The healing ability is pretty powerful and potentially unbalances the game in some respects. For example, a single axolotl can wear down an elder guardian to death. The elder guardian never fires a laser at it, it just stings the axolotl for minimal damage, and the axolotl can make 2 or 3 attacks before it needs to play dead and recover. Because it heals, and the elder guardian doesn't, the elder guardian eventually and inevitably dies. A monument that happens to have an axolotl in each wing eventually leaves only elder guardian in the penthouse for the player to defeat. This makes it easier to take over a monument. This appears to have happened in the survival game I'm playing, because I haven't reached the wings yet and I'm no longer getting hit with Mining Fatigue. Amatulic (talk) 20:53, 18 June 2021 (UTC)
