'''Wogpole'''
'''Wogpoles''' are enemies in the [[Pikmin series|Pikmin games]]. They resemble [[Wikipedia:tadpole|tadpole]]s in appearance, and are in fact the larval form of the frog-like [[Amphituber|Wollywog]]s. In the first game, they only appear in the [[The Forest of Hope]] and [[The Distant Spring]] areas. They are typically a hard-to-get, low-reward enemy in that they are fast swimmers which only give out one [[Pikmin Family|Pikmin]] seed when carried to the [[Onion]]. In [[Pikmin 2]], Wogpoles are found in the [[Awakening Wood]] and [[Perplexing Pool]] areas, as well as the sublevels of certain [[cave]]s where they have a measly treasure value of one [[poko]]. While being chased, Wogpoles may sometimes accidentally beach themselves, flopping about helplessly until they land safely back in the water.
 
'''''Amphicaris frodenum'''''
 
The '''Wogpole''' is an enemy in the [[Pikmin series|Pikmin games]]. It resembles a tadpole, and is in fact the baby form of amphitubers. It is one of the weakest water-based enemy in the game. In the first game, it only appears in the [[The Forest of Hope]] and [[The Distant Spring]] area. They are typically a hard-to-get, low-reward enemy in that they are fast swimmers that run away and only give out 1 [[Pikmin]] when carried to the Onion. In [[Pikmin 2]], they are found in the [[Awakening Wood]] and [[Perplexing Pool]] areas, as well as being found in the sublevels of some caves. Also, they can occasionally get out of the water. When they do this, they will flop high in the air and move more slowly. As stated, they are not worth killing, so don't bother unless you really want to retrieve it.

Wogpoles are enemies in the Pikmin games. They resemble tadpoles in appearance, and are in fact the larval form of the frog-like Wollywogs. In the first game, they only appear in the The Forest of Hope and The Distant Spring areas. They are typically a hard-to-get, low-reward enemy in that they are fast swimmers which only give out one Pikmin seed when carried to the Onion. In Pikmin 2, Wogpoles are found in the Awakening Wood and Perplexing Pool areas, as well as the sublevels of certain caves where they have a measly treasure value of one poko. While being chased, Wogpoles may sometimes accidentally beach themselves, flopping about helplessly until they land safely back in the water.

How to Kill

Same method for both games: follow along its side and try to head it off as it swims away. Wogpoles can't attack, but they can cause flower Pikmin to lose their petals if it shakes them off. Since they only yield one Pikmin seed when retrieved, they're almost always more trouble than they're worth.
