The Wollywog spawns in early spring, laying its eggs on low-hanging tree
branches and shrubs growing in or near lakes and ponds. Such unorthodox
amphibious behaviour is a defence mechanism, protecting the eggs from predation
by [[Blue Pikmin]] and [[Water Dumple]]s. The Wollywog's wild hopping near the
shoreline in early spring is thought to be a method of driving predators away
from Wogpole eggs.

Wogpoles can be eaten raw, but they're much more flavorable when
steamed or grilled. Also heavenly in risotto! Feel free to experiment with this
lush ingredient.

A Wogpole.

Wogpole

Amphicaris frodenum

The Wogpole is an enemy in the 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.

How to Kill

Same method for both games: chase it down with blue Pikmin or the captains. Wogpoles can't attack, but they can cause flower Pikmin to lose their petals if the Wogpole shakes them off. Since they're only worth 1 Pikmin, they're almost always more trouble than they're worth.
