The '''Centipare''' ({{j|ムカデトンボ|Mukade Tonbo|Centipede Dragonfly}}) is a docile [[enemy]] in {{hp}} that resembles a dragonfly. Centipares have skinny pink bodies with light-blue eyes, and their length is about four times that of [[Captain Olimar]]. They float through the air in a fixed pattern, and Olimar and [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] can land on top of one to ride on its back. By staying on one for a while, the player can cover new ground. Despite the name, they are technically not at all related to Adult Centipares, as indicated by their different family, genus, and species. However, this is likely a [[mistake]], as Centipares are directly said by Olimar to be children in their log, lining up with Adult Centipares being the adult forms.


== Behavior ==
'''Centipares''' ({{j|ムカデトンボ|Mukade Tonbo|Centipede Dragonfly}}) are docile creatures in {{hp}} that resemble dragonflies. They float through the air in a fixed pattern, and [[Captain Olimar]] and [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] can land on top of one to ride on its back. By staying on one for a while, the player can cover new ground.
This creature barely does anything; it only acts as an invincible moving platform, flying along a set path.
 
Adult versions exist, the [[Adult Centipare]]s, which are much longer and whose body rocks up and down as they fly.

Since it only acts as a platform, the creature is indestructible and is essential to progressing forward. Still, one note is to avoid [[jetpack]]ing onto or off of Centipares, as it's difficult to catch up with them with this slower method of travel, and it can easily result in Olimar dropping into the poison below. If Olimar jetpacks off, the Centipare will stop automatically moving him, so you should manually fly in the same direction as the Centipare in such a case.
