The Waddlepus is a purple octopus-like creature that is always found sleeping. When approached by Pikmin or their [[leader]]s, a Waddlepus will wake up and begin attacking them by puffing up and producing [[bubble]]s from either its mouth or the yellow pores on its back. These bubbles cannot harm Pikmin or leaders but can trap them inside. When left alone, a Waddlepus will return to its sleeping spot and return to its slumber. | The Waddlepus is a purple octopus-like creature that is always found sleeping.
