It has two methods of attack; fluttering its wings to send clouds of icy wind flying, and using its long proboscis to scoop up Pikmin in front of it and subsequently eat them. The icy wind attack can extinguish bonfires and fire starters, which will make the arena chilly and cause non-Ice Pikmin to freeze if they are not re-lit. When not attacking, the creature merely flies around its arena. | ||
When a fire starter is thrown at the creature's body, the layer of frost will melt, causing it to clumsily fly about. At this point, it is vulnerable to Pikmin attacks and can be weighed down. Eventually, it will regenerate its frost layer; when it has low health, it will regenerate a thicker layer of frost that requires two fire starters to melt. Items like [[Trackonator]]s are able to be used to destroy its cocoon. Additionally, the Snowfake Fluttertail may ingest explosives or fire starters instead of Pikmin, dealing damage to itself upon consumption. | When a fire starter is thrown at the creature's body, the layer of frost will melt, causing it to clumsily fly about.
