It's a fish-like organism with some robotic parts, and is about three times as large as Olimar. It looks very similar to the [[Gatling Groink]], although it is red with yellow stripes and has less robotic elements, and has glass on its front robotic legs. It repeatedly spits large fireballs from the background by extending a mouth-like turret, and when a fireball hits, it can kill [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] and damage [[Olimar]]. It is fairly rare, only appearing in two [[area]]s. | ||

The Fireflinger Groink sits in a stationary position in the background of the level, and cannot be interacted with. Once it spots Pikmin, it will fire large fireballs at the foreground, raining down these projectiles onto the level. They will continue to attack relentlessly until the player goes far enough away from their firing spot. | The Fireflinger Groink sits in a stationary position in the background of the level, and cannot be interacted with.
