The '''Ravenous Whiskerpillar''' | The '''Ravenous Whiskerpillar''' ({{j|ハナゲイモ|Hanage Imo|Nose Hair Caterpillar}}) is an [[enemy]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. Ravenous Whiskerpillars are not harmful to the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], but are dangerous to the [[Burgeoning Spiderwort]] plants. They will eat the berries on the plants, which are necessary to make [[sprays]]. They can be found in the [[Awakening Wood]], the [[Perplexing Pool]] and the [[Wistful Wild]]; each time, they are near two or more [[Burgeoning Spiderwort]] plants. When confronted on a Burgeoning Spiderwort, they will drop off the plant and burrow into the ground, giving the player a chance to attack it. Strangely enough, when killed, they don't seem to be dead; carrying them will make them squirm and emit more of their hissing, and a [[soul]] does not appear. Just before they are pulled into the [[Onion]], they struggle and hiss even more rapidly. The in-game [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 2)|Piklopedia]] states that they are a larval form of another creature, but it says that mature specimens have not been found yet. | ||

The Ravenous Whiskerpillar (ハナゲイモ?, lit.: "Nose Hair Caterpillar") is an enemy in Pikmin 2. Ravenous Whiskerpillars are not harmful to the Pikmin, but are dangerous to the Burgeoning Spiderwort plants. They will eat the berries on the plants, which are necessary to make sprays. They can be found in the Awakening Wood, the Perplexing Pool and the Wistful Wild; each time, they are near two or more Burgeoning Spiderwort plants. When confronted on a Burgeoning Spiderwort, they will drop off the plant and burrow into the ground, giving the player a chance to attack it. Strangely enough, when killed, they don't seem to be dead; carrying them will make them squirm and emit more of their hissing, and a soul does not appear. Just before they are pulled into the Onion, they struggle and hiss even more rapidly. The in-game Piklopedia states that they are a larval form of another creature, but it says that mature specimens have not been found yet.
