They resemble small butterflies | '''Unmarked Spectralids''' (or '''Unmarked Spectralid''', see [[#Naming|below]]; {{j|サンショクシジミ|Sanshoku Shijimi|Tricolored {{w|Lycaenidae|Lycaenids}}}}) are insects in {{p2}}. They resemble small butterflies and can be red, purple, or yellow. They are one of the harmless [[enemy|enemies]] in the [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' series]], having no means of attack and doing nothing but fluttering around. They are located in specific patches of plants and appear upon being disturbed, though in some [[caves]] they are readily visible. They will leave the [[area]]'s boundaries some time after [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] and [[leader]]s come within range of a swarm of them. Their color indicates what they drop when killed - a drop of [[ultra-spicy spray]] (red), [[ultra-bitter spray]] (purple) or [[nectar]] (yellow). Underground, they only have a 20% chance of dropping these rewards. These creatures instantly collapse and die if touched by a single Pikmin. Upon being petrified, they will fall down to the ground and crumble; in the Piklopedia, however, they will remain intact. | ||
The only [[area]] aboveground they appear in is the [[Awakening Wood]], with one group hidden in a [[Margaret]] near the [[Sunseed Berry]], and another in a nearby [[Figwort]] (next to the [[bridge]] there).

Red and purple Spectralids do not appear above ground, and can only be found with yellow Spectralids in [[rest sublevel]]s of certain [[cave]]s, usually found in clusters of 20 or more. In the Awakening Wood, only four of them appear together in each spot. | ||

Unmarked Spectralids seem to not fear creatures that are idling. If there is a [[Mamuta]] in the same level as a swarm of Unmarked Spectralids, it is possible to spot some of the Spectralids land on the creature as it idles. In addition, after both the Unmarked Spectralids and the [[Bulborb|Red]], [[Orange Bulborb|Orange]], and [[Hairy Bulborb]]s have been added to the in-game [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 2)|Piklopedia]], the Spectralids can be seen flying around the former two bulborbs in their respective Piklopedia files. | Unmarked Spectralids seem to not fear creatures that are idling.

Spectralids merely flutter about without waking up the bulborb and may occasionally land on it, but due to the way collisions work in the game they are unreasonably strong. As a result, they can push the bulborb around, sometimes even shoving it out of the regular map boundaries.{{cite youtube|kuO2x6K14ng|of Unmarked Spectralids pushing a Red Bulborb around|published={{date|19|June|2019}}|retrieved={{date|20|June|2019}}}} | |||

Given that the name of entries in the [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 2)|Piklopedia]] is always in singular, and there is no instance in the game of the term "Spectralid", it is likely that "Spectralids" both refers to one creature, singular, as well as multiple, plural. This trend continues in {{p3}}. That said, there is no specific mention of the creature in singular, outside of the Piklopedia entry name, so it is possible its singular name is something else, albeit unknown. | ||
