Wollywogs are a species of frog-like creatures found in both Pikmin games that live in the bowels of subterranean areas. As an adaptation to environments with little or no sunlight, they have lost most of their skin pigmentation, giving them an albino-like appearance. In the PAL version of New Play Control! Pikmin 2 they are known as "Wollyhops". They can jump much farther then their yellow cousins. Some consider it to be the most irritating enemy in to fight in both games, due to their exceptional ease of crushing large quantities of Pikmin. They have less defense than Yellow Wollywogs.

Ship Log

Note that there is only one entry for the two species of this family.

There is a troublesome creature by the water. It immediately tries to jump on and squish the Pikmin, so if I don't quickly issue commands, the Pikmin get flattened. If they could use their strength to hold the beast down, could it still jump...?

Glitch I've had a few pikmin squashed under a wollywog yet somehow, they didn't die.

Brawl Trophy

The Wollywog is seen as a trophy in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. It reads as follows:

A member of the amphituber family known to be quite quick witted upon spotting enemies, despite its slow- moving, easygoing nature. Be aware that wollywogs will make aggressive attempts to smash Pikmin. It is believed that the Wollywog's whitish coloration is a result of a lack of sunlight over its generations spent in caves.

GLITCH

I've had a couple pikmin sqaushed under a wollywog yet somehow, the pikmin didn't die.

Trivia

  • Their scientific name, Amphicaris albino, means 'Amphibious Albino'. Amphicaris is very similar to Amphibious, and albino is obvious.
