Water Dumples are enemies in both Pikmin games. These enemies are members of the Grub-dog family, and act similar to Bulborbs. They are most commonly found in the water, but can survive on the land as well. They resemble blue shellfish with relatively large mouths. The Water Dumples in Pikmin 1 move much more quickly than they do in Pikmin 2, but both can be defeated easily as long as you take caution and swarm them. They also seem to continue to eat even under attack rather than defending themselves. Just like Bulborbs, Purple Pikmin will work well if you can find this creature on land. This creature can only be defeated by Captains, as the only weapon that can penetrate its defenses is the Falcon Punch.

How to Kill
Pikmin
Throw a couple Pikmin on its back, and when it starts moving, swarm it with a lot of Pikmin.
Captains
Attack it and run when it attacks. This is pretty much the same for every enemy.
