{{transcript|This lovely floating critter sucks up food by stretching and contracting its body. It's hard to imagine such a graceful creature could be of this world. It would be rather exciting to get sucked in with all the treasures and Pikmin to float on forever. But if that really happened, I wouldn't be of this world for long either! | {{transcript|This lovely floating critter sucks up food by stretching and contracting its body.

The Greater Spotted Jellyfloat is a large target and therefore can easily be hit with [[Purple Pikmin]]. Just one of them will bring the creature to the ground; 6 Pikmin will be needed, otherwise. Once on the ground, the player should either continue to throw Purple Pikmin at it, provided they have enough, or swarm it with a squad of considerable size. Both ways will ensure a quick defeat. | |||
In ''Pikmin 4'', Greater Spotted Jellyfloats are much more dangerous. They can not be weighed down, and kill Pikmin much faster. Any non yellow Pikmin will latch onto the tentacles, where they can be inhaled, excluding Purple Pikmin. As Yellow Pikmin are not usually brought to any caves that contain these Jellyfloats, fighting them will usually be a pain, as they are also quite sensitive to damage, and will shake Pikmin off quickly.

Winged Pikmin can also be used to attack the main body, though due to their low attack power, it's not a fast process. They are however found alongside a Greater Spotted Jellyfloat naturally however, even if it's only once. | ||
An alternate method is possible with only leaders in ''Pikmin 2''. Have the Greater Spotted Jellyfloat absorb one leader, and then switch to the other leader and use an ultra-bitter spray to petrify the Jellyfloat. Switch back to the leader who is currently swallowed, and wiggle the Control Stick to break free. The Jellyfloat will be defeated. It's possible to do this with a single leader by spraying it as he is being sucked in, but this is very difficult.{{cite web|https://clips.twitch.tv/LazyTolerantTurtleBlargNaut|The Devs Thought of Everything|Twitch.tv}} | An alternate method is possible with only leaders in ''Pikmin 2''.

To note is that in ''Pikmin 2'', if a Greater Spotted Jellyfloat digests a [[White Pikmin]], it will not take damage from it. This is also the case with the Lesser Spotted Jellyfloat. | To note is that in ''Pikmin 2'', if a Greater Spotted Jellyfloat digests a [[White Pikmin]], it will not take damage from it.

Like the Lesser Spotted Jellyfloat, a Greater Spotted Jellyfloat that has been frozen by [[Ice Pikmin]] crashes and shatters when it hits the ground. | |||
