Pinky is a rare Slime that occasionally spawns in the Forest biome, as well as in the Underground and Cavern layers, where it's difficult to spot. Despite its small size, Pinky has more health and defense than nearly all other pre-Hardmode slimes, though it has one of the lowest damage values in the game, and is very easily knocked back.

It is the only source of Pink Gel. It is one of the few enemies that can be detected by the Lifeform Analyzer.

Notes[edit | edit source]

Pinky has a 1 in 180 chance of spawning in place of any standard Slime.
It has a 1% chance to drop the Slime Staff, unlike other Slimes.

Tips[edit | edit source]

The best time to attempt to find Pinky is during the Slime Rain event, as the spawn rate for certain Slimes is greatly increased.
Although it has a lot of health, it doesn't do much damage. So if you have a weapon better than a Copper Shortsword, you should kill it as they drop a large amount of money for a new player.
The Pink Gel Pinky drops can also be used to create a Pink Torches. This can be crafted into a Peace Candle which can be valuable early-game, as it decreases enemy spawn rate.
