{{transcript|Sputtlefish are small aquatic creatures that release ink when attacked. When you encounter a Sputtlefish, lock onto the creature and send a squad of Blue Pikmin charging in to attack. With a reasonably large squad, you shouldn't have any trouble defeating a Sputtlefish before it has a chance to retaliate.
If the creature does manage to release its ink, however, any Pikmin caught in the cloud will panic. Use your whistle to calm your scattered Pikmin and send them charging in for another attack.|block=y}}

If time is a concern, you can easily leave a small group of Blue Pikmin to attack a Sputtlefish, then go off and do something else that needs to be done, and the Pikmin should be able to take the creature down without any trouble.

|common    = Sputtlefish. The name is based off of "spurt" – since it squirts ink to defend itself – and {{w|cuttlefish}}, a real-life animal that it resembles. A cuttlefish has two tentacles and a soft body, much like the Sputtlefish. The "sputtle" part of the name could also be based off "spittle", describing saliva ejected from the mouth.
