The '''Ravenous Whiskerpillar''' ({{j|ハナゲイモ|Hanageimo}}) is an [[enemy]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. These enemies are not harmful to the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], but are dangerous to the [[Burgeoning Spiderwort]] plants. They will eat the berries on the plants, which are necessary to make [[sprays]]. They can be found in the [[Awakening Wood]], the [[Perplexing Pool]] and the [[Wistful Wild]]; each time, they are near two or more [[Burgeoning Spiderwort]] plants. When confronted on a Burgeoning Spiderwort, they will drop off the plant and burrow into the ground, giving the player a chance to attack it. Strangely enough, when killed, they don't seem to be dead; carrying them will make them squirm and emit more of their hissing, and a [[spirit]] does not appear. Just before they are pulled into the [[Onion]], they struggle and hiss even more rapidly. The in-game [[Piklopedia]] states that they are a larval form of another creature, but it says that mature specimens have not been found yet. Interestingly, even though it is the only enemy that does not appear in any underground areas, it has a treasure value of 1 [[Poko]] according to the [[Piklopedia]].

==Strategy==
{{guide}}

===Pikmin===
If it's on a Burgeoning Spiderwort, send a couple of Pikmin up there to bring it down, then [[Group move|swarm]] it with the rest when it falls. Otherwise, just swarm it.

===Leaders===
If it's on a Burgeoning Spiderwort, then wait for it to eat all the berries and kill it when it hops off of the plant. If on the ground, just [[punch]] it until it's dead. If the [[Rocket Fist]] upgrade has been unlocked, the third punch can hit the Whiskerpillar only when it's on the ''very bottom'' part of the berries.

== Trivia ==
*The ''Lepidoptera'' in the Ravenous Whiskerpillar's scientific name (being used as a genus) is the real world order of insects that include moths and butterflies.
*It emits no [[spirit]] and continues to squirm after being defeated, making it the only enemy that can be harvested for Pikmin while still alive.
*A different version of the Ravenous Whiskerpillar was meant to appear in ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', according to some [[Unused content in Pikmin 3|unused files]].
*If Louie really ate this, he had to kill it himself as it doesn't die when brought down by Pikmin.
