I absolutely think that mutations are the cause of all the different varieties of Slimes in the game. After all, the same applies to evolution in the modern world, so drawing a parallel isn't hard. Specifically referring to Puddle slimes, my thought process was one of their ancestor's generation was born with an extremely pourous membrane and thin internal slime, causing them to "deflate" on land, and are only able to maintain enough slime to sustain themselves through osmosis by sitting in bodies of water. That's me trying to apply logic to them, anyways. XD
