The '''[[Muggonfly]]''' ({{j|キノミドラゴムシ|Ki no Mi Dorago Mushi|Nut Dragon Bug}}) is a rare [[enemy]] in {{hp}}, appearing only in [[Olimar's Madcap Ride]]. It is a massive insect that flies slowly and close to the ground, in reach of [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] that are [[throw]]n. It carries several sacks of [[Sparklium Seeds]] dangling from its body that, when broken, spill out all the seeds onto the floor. The creature looks similar to the [[Coppeller]]s, except much larger, with a long body that trails behind the head, and wings.

The Muggonfly will simply fly forward, bobbing up and down. Although throwing Pikmin at the Sparklium sacks that it holds will make it drop them, the beast will not react and will just keep moving forward.

**[[Olimar's Madcap Ride]]: The only Muggonfly in the game appears here. Near the middle of the level, there is a short "rest section", where the player briefly gets off the [[Adult Centipare]]s and walks on normal land. The beast is found just above here as it slowly flies towards the right of the screen, until the player eventually has to walk off the platform, leaving it behind.

The enemy is impossible to kill, but it can't hurt you either. The only way it can benefit you is with the Sparklium Seeds it holds. To obtain them, quickly attack each sack with Pikmin from left to right, to get them all before it flies off-screen.

Although "Muggon" is not a word, "fly" could be referring to its flying characteristics. Even more, the name itself sounds a lot like "dragonfly", the name of a real life creature that the Muggonfly seems to be based after.
{{naming
|common    = Muggonfly. From "dragonfly", the name of a real life creature that the Muggonfly seems to be based after.
|jpcommon  = {{j|キノミドラゴムシ|Ki no Mi Dorago Mushi}}. Same as its Japanese name.
|jpname    = {{j|キノミドラゴムシ|Ki no Mi Dorago Mushi|Nut Dragon Bug}}.
|scientific = Draco saccusporum. ''Draco'' is Latin for "dragon", in reference to its long tail and body. ''Saccusporum'' is derived from ''saccus'', Latin for "sack", and either spore or pore. This is in reference to the several sacks of Sparklium it carries.

*Olimar notes in the creature log that it hates it when it loses its seeds. However, the Muggonfly does not react at all when its seeds fall, so there is no way he can know this.
