The Foolix can be fought in one of two ways: the first is to get behind it and have Oatchi or at least 15 Pikmin pull on its tail when it extends through its cytoplasm, which will cause its nucleus to burst out of its membrane and leave it vulnerable  until it can reform its cytoplasm. Using [[Ice Pikmin]] after its out of the goo will freeze it before it can recover. A bomb rock will also cause the Foolix to burst if it is engulfed.

=== Dalmo's notes ===

{{transcript|If you take the microorganisms I used to peer at through my microscope as a child and blow them up much, MUCH bigger, this is what you get. A huge, single-celled sweetie, it blorpily sloshes around in search of food. To this giant, we're the microorganisms!|block=y}}

 

=== Olimar's notes ===

If the nucleus is removed, its soft body loses all structure and splatters. But as long as the nucleus is still alive, the Foolix can return to its original form.

Usually, the Foolix will mimic nectar and wait for its prey. Its gel, which includes fire-extinguishing fluids, will then expand to capture and feed on unsuspecting organisms.|block=y}}

'''Translation'''

It has a gelatinous body with a single star-shaped nucleus with a fin-like flagellum. In spite of its huge body, it is a primitive life-form made up of a single cell.

 

 

:(Image text: "When approached, it suddenly grows to a gigantic size and feeds on prey by taking it into its body, which contains digestive juices")

 

 

:It moves by stretching and contracting its body and using its fin-like flagellum.

:*"If the nucleus is removed from the body, the body splatters"

*Freezing a Foolix while a [[bomb rock]] is engulfed will disarm the bomb. When the ice is broken, the bomb rock will be dropped next to the now-exposed nucleus. Assuming that no leaders intervene, the Foolix will inadvertently pull in and rearm the same bomb rock during its reformation process; the bomb will then explode and burst the cytoplasm again.
