The Quaggled Mireclops is the second boss of the Garden of Hope and the fifth boss overall in Pikmin 3. It is a piece of land supported by three hooved "legs", with a berry on its top. It captures Louie after he attempts to escape in the Ship, which becomes destroyed. Upon defeat of the Quaggled Mireclops, it releases Louie.
Killing Strategy
Take around 10 (or more) Rock Pikmin and as many blues as they can. Throw your rocks at the Crystal Nodule until its "eye" is revealed. The Quaggled Mireclops will then stand up. Be EXTREMELY careful when walking around the Quaggled Mireclops's arena, because when it stomps around, it creates puddles of mud that can drown non-Blue Pikmin. Throw Pikmin at its legs until they turn red. Once that happens, it will fall to the ground. This is your chance to attack. The Quaggled Mireclops will attemtpt to eat Pikmin with its large tongue, similar to the Emperor Bulblax, but the tongue will move in a circle. When the crystal is destroyed, the boss will reveal its true form. IMMEDIATELY have one captain take the Rock Pikmin back to base to avoid casualties. When its HP is low, it may start stomping around in a fashion similar to the Raging Long Legs. Keep going, and it will be defeated.
