Strategy

The Crested Mockiwi is a tad harder to defeat than its counterpart. A simple Pikmin on its back won't do the trick. Aim for its signature crest instead; this will give the same effect as throwing a Pikmin onto the back of a normal Mockiwi, allowing you to bombard it anywhere without worrying about it retaliating. Though it will eventually shake off the Pikmin, requiring a new one to be thrown. If it charges, a Pikmin throw to its head will halt it.

Notes

Hey! Pikmin logs

“It's similar to a regular Mockiwi in many ways. I can't see any purpose for the crest beyond a distinctive look. Then again, nobody knows what the company president's hair is for either. Maybe that's why he has less and less of it every year.”
