The Vehemoth Phosbat is the second boss of Pikmin 3 and abducts Charlie. It is a giant moth-like enemy decorated with many lights, and it resides in a cave hidden in the Distant Tundra. The Vehemoth Phosbat will fly in the cave, and will sometimes approach the Pikmin. Upon doing so, it becomes visible and will suck in Pikmin. To defeat the Vehemoth Phosbat, the player must activate the lights in the cave; there are four ground lights and one large light hanging from the ceiling. When the Vehemoth Phosbat is exposed to light, it is stunned and will fall down. However, it will rise up, and poison any Pikmin attacking it. When the large light is activated, it will have difficulty flying for the rest of the battle, and enough Pikmin will be able to ground it. Upon death, it releases Charlie, along with a mango, the Heroine's Tear. The Heroine's Tear gives the leaders with 2 1/2 bottles of juice.
