The she-slime (originally Red Slime/RedSlime) is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series. Introduced in the very first game, they are basically reddish slimes.
Characteristics
There are not too many differences between the she-slime and its run-of-the-mill counterpart besides color. She-slimes are usually ever so slightly stronger than slimes.
Despite the name of she-slime, their genders are as ambiguous as those of regular slimes. The change from red slime may be on account that their modern interpretations, with more shades available to them then what the graphical limitations of the NES allowed, are more of an orange color than red.
According to the games, the she-slimes are a different color than ordinary slimes due to an uncommon genetic mutation; this relative rarity has led them to be referred to as "don't-often-see-slimes".
Appearances
Main series
Not just the debut of the slime, but the she-slime as well. They are encountered in the same spots as slimes and are just a touch stronger than they are.
Due to text restrictions, there is no space between Red and Slime in the Gameboy Color remake of Dragon Quest.
The RedSlime can be found in the Falrod region in the past, the Lake Altar Cave in the past, and the Krage region in Disc 2.

Game description: These slimes are the result of a rare genetic mutation, and are also known as "don't-often-see-slimes."
Guide description: They're bitter rivals of standard slimes, who they match for shape, size and colour, but can't beat as far as fan base goes.

Monsters series
She-slimes cannot be found on any of the main islands in Green Bays, but they can occasionally be encountered on any uncharted islands players may happen across while traveling between the main locations. A she-slime can often be synthesized using a healslime and a monster of equal or lower rank of the she-slime desired.
N/A
Gootrude, Bo, Itsy, and Morrie-Morrie all appear to be she-slimes. Of the four, Gootrude is the one who most resembles a she-slime as Bo, Rocket's sister, is a bit smaller and wears a white bow, Itsy is very small, and Morrie-Morrie sports facial hair and a white headband.
