{{ | ''[[Pikmin 3]]'' does not have as much '''[[unused content]]''' in the disc as the prequels, but there is still a substantial amount. | ||
==Unused enemies== | ==Unused enemies== | ||
The following [[enemy]] data can be found in the <code>/content/CMCmn/enemy</code>, referring to unused enemies. | |||
To note is that almost all enemies have a <code>lockon.txt</code> file that determines how the [[lock-on]] works. All used enemies use version 5 of the file format, but some unused enemies use versions 0 or 1. In addition, there is a block of health-related parameters, and it too has a format version. Used enemies use version 8. | |||

<code>kakureimo</code> is a fat leech-like enemy. It has a purple body, yellow stomach along with yellow back stripes, and three green eyes on each side of its small head.

When it spawns, it pops out from underneath the ground. When there are no Pikmin or leaders nearby, it waddles around to explore a small area immediately outside of its "home" , but if one gets into view, it becomes alarmed and dashes to its original spot, where it burrows underground. After being left alone for a bit, it will reemerge and repeat the cycle. Given unknown rules, it may decide to stay underground until it's left alone, or it will cautiously poke its head out to survey the area. When it burrows, its health is entirely restored.

The internal name, however, is quite different: it used to be <code>imomushi</code> ({{j|イモムシ|imomushi|caterpillar|f=tp}}), but is now <code>moguraimo</code> ({{j|モグライモ|mogura imo|mole potato|f=tp}}). Appearance-wise, it is slightly larger than before, and unless the texture mapping of the model is incorrect, its skin is mostly purple; besides that, its eyes are slightly larger, it has antennae, and its namesake whiskers are gone.

However, due to its striking resemblance to an already-existing enemy, the model may just be a placeholder. The following can be observed from the game's files: | ||

Presumably, it would've stomped on the ground using its head as well. With the model are two textures, which are the same as the ''Pikmin 2'' one, but one is tinted blue and the other pink. On the image shown to the right, the ''Pikmin 2'' texture was used for clarity. This creature's internal name is <code>iwadama</code>, meaning "rock orb".

A fat variant of a [[Male Sheargrub]], around roughly the same size, too. It resembles a tick, and in a sense, the [[Ujadani]].

*When idling, it repeats its shaking animation constantly, although it causes no damage. This constant shaking is caused by a variable that measures the amount of Pikmin required to activate the shake animation, except this variable is set to zero by default, resulting in it shaking off Pikmin despite none being present.
