Whimsun
Whimsun is one of the first few monsters that The Human encounters, they are found in the ruins. They are extremely sensitive and don't want to fight. They appear as a moth like creature with a sad expression and can be spared in 1 turn.
Whimsalot is the advanced version of Whimsum that is found in the CORE as well as the ruins in Hard Mode. They appear more humanoid shaped and they have a double-bladed spear and mask. They can be spared by praying twice or praying once and healing you.

- Creation (Monsters can make weapons[7], clothes and even food from magic)

Other
Standard Tactics: Whimsun and Whimsalot will bring one into their personal domain. They attack with rows and circles of moths that target the soul when attacking.
Weaknesses:
- Monster Weaknesses: All monsters are weak to an attack with killing intent behind it and if a monster doesn't want to fight, they are weakened greatly[16].
- Unique Weaknesses: Whimsun is extremely sensitive and doesn't want to fight. Whimsalot will heal their opponent a lot due to how nice they are.
Explanations
Monster Check Stats
Monster's check stats are quite dubious for a couple of reasons:
- Monsters like Glyde give off the implication that monsters are the ones listing their statistics.
- Mad Dummy has a defense stat listed of -40 but notes because they're a ghost physical attacks will fail. One could say the -40 comes from the fact that the dummy's body is that weak, however, the regular Dummy's check stats just has their DEF as 0, there's really no reason why the Mad Dummy should have far lower DEF stats especially during a pacifist route.
- Characters like Napstablook have a defense stat listed but you actually aren't lowering his HP he was just lowering it for you to be nice.
- Toriel's stats are listed at 80 ATK and 80 DEF, the same as Asgore's stats. Yet in one of the endings Unydne with her strength as stated by Sans literally threw Toriel out of the castle. Despite Undyne's stats being 7 ATK and 0 DEF. This would also imply characters like Papyrus are stronger then her as he has an 8 ATK and 2 DEF, and while she does admit Papyrus is pretty tough, it's never really implied to be that Papyrus is stronger then Undyne. Royal Guard members are also shown to have higher stats then her through this logic.
- Undyne the Undying has stats of 99 ATK and 99 DEF yet due to Mettaton's Invulnerable Body, they have a defense stat of 999.
On top of these, genocide route has the check stats differ too with confusing changes, while the human's killing intent is a reason behind this, some characters have their defense stats raise such as Papyrus'. There's also inconsistencies even in these routes, for example The Human at a level 3 killing intent one-shots Toriel[17] yet The Human at level 13 can still only chip damage Asgore[18].
It should also be noted, the argument that Toriel sent Asgore flying with her fire, has an issue it was an off guard hit[19] which it has been shown off-guard/betrayal kills can one-shot monsters as they lowered their guard[20].
Magic vs. Physicality
Monsters are mostly made of magic while human beings are mostly made of water[2] making humans with their physical forms far stronger then them[2]. However humans have lost the ability to use magic by proxy[2].
Monsters bodies being made of magic has their body physically attuned to their SOUL[4]. Due to this, monsters that don't want to fight have their defenses weaken[4] and one with more killing intent and crueller intentions will inflict more damage on them[4]. This is due to a monsters SOUL being made of love, hope, and compassion[21].
Monsters bodies being made of magic also makes it where they do not possess enough physical matter to take concentrations of determination[22].
In the Undertale 10th Anniversary Livestream Gerson reveals that humanity once had magic too but creating the barrier that separated humans and monsters caused them to use up all their magic[23].
