'''Mitites''' <span style="line-height:20px;">(</span><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,sans-serif;line-height:19px;">タマゴムシ) </span>are small, pink creatures with white shells and five legs, found in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. They cannot directly harm [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], but can inadvertently cause them to be killed by causing the Pikmin to panic into a [[hazard]]. When stumbled upon, they appear in a swarm of ten, scuttling around, sending both themselves and any Pikmin they pass near into a panic. Any [[Nectar Egg|egg]], both on the ground and from a [[Honeywisp]], has a chance of containing Mitites, which means they can be found anywhere eggs are. These creatures also burrow up from under the ground in specific locations, such as [[Sublevel]] 10 of the [[Hole of Heroes]]; and are released from the bodies of some [[Raging Long Legs]] once defeated. Any Mitites that are not killed eventually burrow underground. | |||
Every creature in the swarm drops a pool of [[nectar]] when killed, which makes them valuable for building a flowered army | Every creature in the swarm drops a pool of [[nectar]] when killed, which makes them valuable for building a flowered army. When trying to get [[Pokos]], they are also somewhat efficient. The reason Mitites are found inside eggs is because they lay ''their'' eggs inside the eggs of other organisms, making them parasitoids. | ||

===Olimar's Notes=== | |||
''"These parasitic insects feed on eggs. Upon reaching maturity, they excrete a special pheromone that attracts females of particular species, enticing these females to swallow the mitites whole. (Pikmin, however, seem to dislike the scent.) After entering the host female's body, the mitites lay their own eggs inside the host's eggs just prior to the host spawning."'' | |||
===Louie's Notes=== | |||
== | ''"Flash-fry with garlic and red chilis in a hot pan, then sprinkle with grated gorgonzola. Some dinner guests may find the legs unappealing, so it's best to remove them before serving."'' | ||
===Nintendo Player's Guide=== | |||
''"When you break an egg expecting nectar, sometimes you'll be suprised by a flurry of Mitites. The creatures won't harm your Pikmin, but they will send them into a panic. Call your purple troops with your whistle, then stomp one of the Mitities to generate nectar and make the others scurry away."'' | |||
Mitites | ==Battle Strategy== | ||
The best way to kill Mitites is to throw [[Purple Pikmin]] onto them: any color will work, but Purple Pikmin send out shock waves that kill all of the surrounding Mitites; without purples, a direct hit is required to kill a single enemy. Also, Purples are the only Pikmin that do not seem to be afraid of mitites. | |||
Another way is to grab every single Pikmin you have ([[Red Pikmin]] are preferred) and swarm them, this is easy because they sometimes get killed in 1 hit. | |||
If a Purple Pikmin is thrown directly on top of a Mitite filled egg it will kill every one inside of it. This method is great for making Pikmin above ground and getting Nectar underground. (Note: Mitites are (sometimes) randomly placed in eggs, there is no way to tell where they are so this method could take a some time). As they send your Pikmin into a panic, be careful about opening eggs near enemies. | |||

==Trivia== | ==Trivia== | ||
* | *Its scientific name, '''''Mitivius infiltratus''''', loosely means 'Infiltrating Mites'. ''Mitivius'' sounds somewhat like mite, and ''infiltratus ''sounds similar to inflitrate. It also fits, as it inflitrates eggs to lay its own. | ||
*The Mitite, unlike real-life [[Wikipedia:Mite|Mites]], is quintepedal rather than octopedal. Therefore, it is not a traditional arachnid, as is unique to all of Earth's lifeforms. | |||
* | *[http://zelda.wikia.com/wiki/Baby_Gohma Baby Gohmas] from [http://zelda.wikia.com/wiki/The_Legend_of_Zelda:_Twilight_Princess The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess] resemble Mitites, and their designs may have been inspired by them. | ||
* The | *Mitites were originally going to be called Egg Grubs. | ||
