It has a cream feathered body with two wings of the same color, and a long pink beak which is always open.

When the Waddlequaff spots a Pikmin, it will begin to inhale in an attempt to swallow and eat it. It can also swallow [[pellet | When the Waddlequaff spots a Pikmin, it will begin to inhale in an attempt to swallow and eat it. It can also swallow [[pellet]]s, [[treasure]]s, and items such as [[Scrummy bone|Scrummy Bones]], explosives, and [[Pikpik Carrot|Pikpik Carrots]], but only actively targets pellets and treasures, and ignores items unless thrown directly into its attack range while inhaling. When it shakes off attacking Pikmin, swallowed pellets or treasures will be spat out, one at a time. Upon death, any remaining pellets or treasures it has eaten will be spat out all at once. With each item a Waddlequaff consumes, it begins to noticeably grow larger, up to three sizes bigger. But the bigger it gets the slower it becomes, making attacking it easier. | ||

{{transcript|It possesses a bottomless stomach and will swallow down anything and everything unfortunate enough to end up in its path. It will even consume things larger than its own body without missing a step. The best part is its goofy little head that looks just like a fuzz-covered gourd!}} | |||

Its feathers are too small to use for flying. The current theory is that this is due to its niche position in the ecosystem being quite secure thanks to a lack of natural predators and little competition for food in its habitat. | Its feathers are too small to use for flying.

However, with the expansion of Pikmin territory, recently its numbers have been gradually declining. | |||
