The '''slooch family''' is a family of elemental slug-like creatures introduced in {{p3}}, although the family went unclassified until {{p3d}}. It contains only one member, the [[Pyroclasmic Slooch]], after which the family was named. Members belong to the ''Sulucina'' genus.

Scientific name: ''Sulucina vulcanis''

The Pyroclasmic Slooch is a creature that is nearly always cloaked in flames, leaving a trail of [[fire]] in its wake. Pyroclasmic Slooches may sometimes travel into [[water]], where they will be extinguished and vulnerable to all Pikmin types. It can, however, be set ablaze again if it manages to contact another source of fire, such as the fire trail of a nearby Pyroclasmic Slooch. It generally ignores Pikmin and [[leader]]s, but won't hesitate to make a meal out of them should they be in its way or try to attack it.
