[[File:Pikmin 3 Ravenous Whiskerpillar.png|thumb|<code>moguraimo</code>.]]


This creature bears a strong resemblance to the [[Ravenous Whiskerpillar]] from ''Pikmin 2''. The internal name, however, is somewhat different: instead of <code>imomushi</code> ({{j|イモムシ|imomushi|caterpillar}}), it is <code>moguraimo</code> ({{j|モグライモ|mogura imo|mole caterpillar}}). Appearance-wise, it is slightly larger than the Whiskerpillar 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 lacks the Whiskerpillar's namesake whiskers. In terms of behavior, it acts exactly the same as the ''[[#kakureimo|kakureimo]]'', save for that it will attempt to eat another berry even after eating one.{{cite youtube|gkkCeLvIHHY|of the ''moguraimo'' in action}} Given how it acts the same as the ''kakureimo'', has a similar name to it, and sports a similar color scheme, it's safe to say that the two creatures are somehow related. 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:

[[File:Pikmin 3 unused Beady Long Legs.png|thumb|<code>iwadama</code>.]]


There is a model for an enemy which resembles the [[Beady Long Legs]] as it appears in ''Pikmin 2'', size included, but with its circular head replaced with a large version of one of its feet. 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". The Beady Long Legs' old internal name, <code>damagumo</code>, is used for the [[Shaggy Long Legs]] in ''Pikmin 3''. The following can be noted from the game files:

In addition, the unknown and mostly-empty <code>kokgamiegg</code> "enemy" seems to have been made on accident, created instead of the used <code>kokagamiegg</code> (the [[Phosbat Pod]]), and <code>tuyukusa</code> is a mostly broken and smaller version of <code>tsuyukusa</code> but written using a different romanization system, the [[Burgeoning Spiderwort]]. Finally, the fire geyser has parameter files for a <code>bubble</code> and a <code>gas</code> variant, suggesting the planned return of [[poison emitter]]s and the addition of [[bubble blower]]s, which would become a reality in [[Pikmin 4|the next game]].

The file <code>/content/CMCmn/system/param_db.szs/generatorsave_db.txt</code> has what appear to be respawn day paramaters for the game's objects. Inside the list, one can find the entries <code>GasHiba</code>, which is what the poison emitters in ''Pikmin 2'' are internally called, <code>MureBuka</code>, possibly an earlier name for the [[Scornet]] (who in the final version have the internal name <code>Mure</code>) meaning "swarm subordinate", and <code>Tamagumo</code>, an alternative spelling of <code>Damagumo</code>, which is also present in the file.
