Behavior

The Freezecake sits in silence until the player, Oatchi, or a pikmin is near. The Freezecake while idle will stick out its eyes in attampt to see prey. Once ready to attack it will flip on its side towards the prey, after about 5 seconds it will slam into the ground crushing and/or freezing anything below it based on which side it lands on. If it lands on the frozen side then it will emit a small burst of ice around it, freezing things too close to it. Upon death, it will spin around and land frigid side down. If it is attampting to flip sides when defeated then it wll do one final crush before spinning.

Strategy

The following article or section contains guides.
The strategies shown are just suggestions.

Altough they are rocks, the upperside of the Freezecake is soft and can be damaged by anything. While the Frigid side is best damaged by a Thermal Defense equipped Oatchi and Ice Pikmin. Best to whistle you pikmin once it has began to tip over and crush. Charging and throwing Pikmin are both very good methods to harm the creature.

Notes

Dalmo's Notes

“The way its blue-white shell is woven through with cracks makes it look like a porcelain coaster. What's more, it's cold enough to keep your drink chilled! Of course, this remarkable critter is very much alive and would flip-flop your drink right over!”

Olimar's Notes

“By emitting frigid air from one side of its shell, it can freezse and squash any prey that approaches too closely. Food can be hard to find in extremely cold climates, so one theory is that this species has developed some kind of mechanism that allows it to store its prey for long periods of time.”

Louie's Notes

“The meat under the icy side of the shell is quite muscular, while the other side is nice and fatty. Two great tastes in one!”
