'''Mitites''' ({{j|タマゴムシ|Tamago Mushi|Egg Insect}}) are small and pink creatures with white shells and six legs, appearing in {{p2}} and {{p4}}. They cannot directly harm [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] or [[Oatchi]], but when nearby, cause them to run in [[panic]], which can inadvertently lead them to danger, like a [[hazard]]. When stumbled upon, they appear in a swarm of ten, scuttling around, and just need to be alive in order for nearby Pikmin to panic. In ''Pikmin 2'' exclusively, [[Purple Pikmin]] are the only type of Pikmin who are not disturbed by this enemy. | |||
Any [[egg]] in ''Pikmin 2'', both on the ground and from a [[Honeywisp]], has a 5% chance of containing a group of ten Mitites, which means they can be found anywhere eggs are. Sets of ten can also burrow up from under the ground in specific locations, such as sublevel 10 of the [[Hole of Heroes]].

Sets of ten can also burrow up from under the ground in specific locations, such as sublevel 10 of the [[Hole of Heroes]]. Finally, a group of thirty is also released from the body of a [[Raging Long Legs]] after its defeat if it isn’t carrying a treasure. | ||

In ''Pikmin 4'', | Every creature in the swarm drops a pool of [[nectar]] when killed, which makes them valuable for building a flowered army. In ''Pikmin 4'', they have a chance to drop [[ultra-spicy nectar]]. When trying to get [[Poko]]s, 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. Strangely, they cannot be [[ultra-bitter spray|petrified]] in the [[area]]s or [[cave]]s they are found in, but can be petrified after coming out of the ground in sublevel 6 of [[Bulblax Kingdom]], sublevel 10 of the Hole of Heroes, and in the [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 2)|Piklopedia]] by pressing {{button|gc|z|wii|1}}. | ||

Mitites in eggs only come out once the egg is broken. Those that are hidden underground will come out if Pikmin or leaders get near, or if an [[Emperor Bulblax]] in the same sublevel roars. They can also be found in the [[Raging Long Legs]] in the [[Hole of Heroes]] after its treasure is collected. Once a group of Mitites appears, any nearby non-Purple Pikmin will start panicking. The enemies start moving around aimlessly as well. Any Mitites that are not killed will eventually burrow underground after a set amount of time. | |||

The best way to kill Mitites is to [[throw]] [[Purple Pikmin]] onto them: any type 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 in one hit-and-run.

In addition, Purple Pikmin are the only type that do not seem to be afraid of Mitites. Mitites cannot be killed by [[Group move|swarming]] Pikmin into them, and any Pikmin that attacks a Mitite from the side will fail to cause it any damage. | ||
When approaching an egg, keep in mind that it can drop Mitites. As such, the best way to open eggs is to throw two or three Purple Pikmin onto them in quick succession. The first Pikmin should break the egg(s), while the next Pikmin create a shock wave to destroy the Mitites, if they appear. This way, all Mitites can be killed in a quick fashion, without scaring Pikmin. However, seeing as eggs could drop [[nectar]] pools, it's advised to use flowered [[Purple Pikmin]] to open the eggs. If the egg drops nectar and the player uses [[Maturity|leaf]] Purple Pikmin to open it, the Pikmin might drink all of the nectar before most of the other Pikmin can reach it. | When approaching an egg, keep in mind that it can drop Mitites.
