The Miniature Snootwhacker is an enemy in {{p4}}. It is the younger variant of the Mammoth Snootwhacker. Due to its tough skin, it is immune to most physical attacks from pikmin, even [[Rock Pikmin]]. It uses it's large trunk to scatter and [[crush]] pikmin (aside from Rock Pikmin on soft surfaces). Its belly is its weak point, but it can only be exposed by charging at it with [[Oatchi]]. | The Miniature Snootwhacker is an enemy in {{p4}}. It is the younger variant of the Mammoth Snootwhacker.

The 'Mammoth Snootwhacker is a large enemy in {{p4}}. It is the older variant of the Miniature Snootwhacker. Like its younger form, it has a thick skin that prevents most attacks and allows it to [[crush]] non-[[Rock Pikmin]] with the weight of its trunk. These attacks pose a greater threat and larger radius given the increased size. Unlike the smaller version, it takes two charges from [[Oatchi]] to damage it, as only one will simply stun it instead of exposing the belly, its weak point. | The 'Mammoth Snootwhacker is a large enemy in {{p4}}.
