Mockiwi may be large, but they can easily be taken out with any Pikmin type: simply throw Pikmin onto their backs to kill them. Mockiwi drop 2 [[Sparklium]] upon death. Alternatively you can throw one or two onto its back and then bombard it freely; the Pikmin on its back will render it unable to attack you or the Pikmin onslaught.

Mockiwi will not be able to turn around if the player hits them quickly enough. This can be exploited to take them out without losing any Pikmin.

Notes

Hey! Pikmin logs

Its large beak is a holdover from when its kind could fly, but the wings are totally vestigial now. It spends all its time either eating or sleeping. Hmm...reminds me of a certain pooch back on Hocotate.

Super Smash Bros Ultimate[edit]

The Mockiwi appears in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as a Primary Spirit. It can be unlocked by fighting Pac-Man, with Olimar, in the Spirit Board or from the Shop.
