The '''Lesser Spotted Jellyfloat''' ({{j|コマンマン|Ko Manman|Small ''[[Jellyfloat family#Naming|Manman]]''}}) is an enemy in {{p2}} and {{p4}}. It resembles a large, blue, floating {{w|jellyfish}} with yellow spots, that floats through the air. It attacks the [[Pikmin Family|Pikmin]] by inhaling them and trapping them inside. The Pikmin will then be digested over a considerably long period of time, specifically 1 Pikmin per 30 seconds, but can be saved by defeating it. This creature is related to the [[Greater Spotted Jellyfloat]]. It is also similar to the [[Medusal Slurker]] in the fact that they have clear bodies and keep Pikmin trapped inside of them. In ''Pikmin 4'', they can't digest Pikmin, and they also can't inhale the last Pikmin. | |||

If you encounter one, stay out of its path and throw Pikmin at it. If it is above your Pikmin, it will suck them up. It is vulnerable on all parts of its body, and has moderately low [[health]]. [[Purple Pikmin]] will automatically make this creature fall due to their weight; they are also good for defeating it, as stunning it will prevent it from getting back into the air. When defeated, all undigested Pikmin will be recovered. The creature will also shake Pikmin off, both in the air and when it recovers flight. Know this and [[whistle]] your Pikmin back before the enemy shakes, as to avoid having the Pikmin lose their flower status. | If you encounter one, stay out of its path and throw Pikmin at it.

If frozen, a Lesser Spotted Jellyfloat will fall and shatter on impact with the ground, making [[Ice Pikmin]] ideal to use against it. This is doubly useful in Dandori Challenges, as it cuts down the time needed to defeat them and retrieve Pikmin inside without the worry of destroying it's corpse, which it wouldn't leave behind either way. | If frozen, a Lesser Spotted Jellyfloat will fall and shatter on impact with the ground, making [[Ice Pikmin]] ideal to use against it.
