Jellyfloat family

This page is part of the merge with Pikmin Wiki, and needs resolving. Please bear with us as we do so. Before the import, this subject had a page both on Pikipedia and Pikmin Wiki. You are currently reading the Pikipedia version, and the Pikmin Wiki version can be found here. Both versions need to be manually merged together and placed on the current page. At Pikmin Wiki, this page was called "Jellyfloat", which is likely different from the current title. It might make sense to rename this page.

Jellyfloats are jiggly, flying enemies resembling jellyfish, and are only found in certain underground caves in Pikmin 2. They are known for sucking Pikmin into their gelatinous bells and digesting them over considerably long periods of time. Fortunately, they are extremely rare and easy to defeat with a decently-sized army of Pikmin.

Lesser Spotted Jellyfloat

Main article: Lesser Spotted Jellyfloat.

The Lesser Spotted Jellyfloat is an enemy in Pikmin 2. They resemble large, blue, floating jellyfish with yellow spots that float through the air. They attack the Pikmin by inhaling them and trapping them inside. The Pikmin will then be digested one by one over considerably long periods of time. It is vulnerable on all parts of its body, and has moderately low health. Purple Pikmin will automatically make this creature fall due to their weight. They are also good for defeating it, as stunning it will prevent it from getting back into air. When defeated, all undigested Pikmin will be recovered. This enemy is related to the Greater Spotted Jellyfloat, although according to Olimar, the species is struggling as the Greater Spotted Jellyfloats are a foreign species that have wandered into their territory, and being stronger, they are causing the numbers of Lessers to decline. They seem to have antenna similar to the Puffstool in Pikmin.

Greater Spotted Jellyfloat

Main article: Greater Spotted Jellyfloat.

The Greater Spotted Jellyfloat is an enemy in Pikmin 2. As their name implies, they resemble larger, purple versions of the Lesser Spotted Jellyfloat. They have slightly more health and can be defeated in the same manner, but can suck up more Pikmin at once, and even your captain(s) if you're not careful. Likewise, all undigested Pikmin and captains are returned when it is defeated. Ingested Pikmin will survive a long time before being digested. This species is also rarer than the other Jellyfloat.
