Honeywisps are creatures found in both Pikmin games, about which very little is known. They float across the air carrying an egg (Pikmin 2) or nectar (Pikmin), and tend to glow and make high pitched cries, appearing and disappearing out of thin air if a captain passes nearby set places where they can show. A Honeywisp's egg, like any other, may contain nectar, a spray drop or Mitites.
Ship Log
"This timid creature flies around collecting nectar from flowers. It typically hides itself, but shaking flowers can reveal its presence. The nectar it collects appears to be the Pikmin's favorite food. They instantly bloom when they eat it."
Notes
Reel notes
Olimar's notes
Louie's notes
“Although the eggs are small, the yolk has a distinctly bold and tangy flavor. Try tossing a few in a pan along with your choice of meat and
fresh vegetables and cook up a country scramble!”Strategy
The Honeywisp is a constantly airborne enemy. As such, it can only be killed with Pikmin. This also makes it impossible to petrify successfully. If a Pikmin is thrown at one, it will vanish and drop its nectar or egg, which breaks upon impact with the ground.
Trivia
- The creature's body structure resembles that of a fish.
