The water wraith is a boss in Pikmin 2. He does not appear in the first game at all. He is an extra dimensional creature who will try to kill your Pikmin by rolling over them. I recommend searching a picture. In the main story he can be found in the Submerged Castle. He will spawn in the submerged castle on every floor after 5 min. has passed (I think.) He can not be attacked without throwing a Purple pikmin on his back. This will make him take a physical form. Otherwise, he is invincible. The problem is, the submerged castle's entrance is submerged in water so you can't take in Purple pikmin. So if he shows up, you are out of luck. On the final floor, you get Purple pikmin via. candypop bud. Then you can kill it. In challenge mode, 2 of them will appear in the bully den when the clock reaches 270. This time, you are given 25 purple.
Go with no pikmin
Yes. Blue Pikmin can serve as lifeguards and, when they are idle or thrown, toss drowning Pikmin onto dry land.
You don't. You need blue Pikmin to go into the water. If there is a bridge that can be built that reds and yellows can't get to, use the blues to go across the water and build the bridge so you can get the reds and yellows over.
Blue pikmin are the most important type of pikmin. They can swim in water without drowning! They can also save pikmin who are drowing if you throw them near one
Yes, Pikmin can be killed by predators, fire, water, poison, electricity, and more. This is why they need Olimar's guidance. Certain Pikmin are immune to certain substances, though. Blue Pikmin are immune to water, yellow to electricity, white to poison, and red to fire. The remaining elements are very dangerous to each Pikmin.
Winged Pikmin can drown when they fall into a body of water, but it rarely happens as they are normally in flight.
No there is not a Pikmin that will give you more or additional Pikmin.
Since the Goolix is made mostly of water, blue Pikmin are best to fight it. Throw them on the smaller blue nucleus to damage it. You can also damage the Goolix by throwing Pikmin on the yellow nucleus, but this will make it throw all attacking Pikmin off.
Red Pikmin are arguably the simplest Pikmin, in both form and function. They have high attack power and can withstand fire, whereas the other types of Pikmin look stranger and have a wider variety of uses. Also, you do not come into fire hazards early in either game, which means the more common electric and water hazards block a larger area of the world. Lastly, white and purple Pikmin could not be the first Pikmin you get in Pikmin 2 because they can only be created in caverns you need Pikmin to enter in the first place.
No. White Pikmin made their first appearance in Pikmin 2.
All five original pikmin have been confirmed by Mr. Miyamoto. In addition, as you have probably already seen,, are the rock pikmin. These, despite what people have been saying, are not like purple pikmin at all. Really the only similarity is they give a little umph when landing on an enemy, and even then, they attack by repeatedly throwing themselves at the enemy instead of latching on, and don't have the possibility of making the enemy dizzy, like the purple. A flying pink pikmin with blue eyes can be seen in the trailer for a brief moment at the beginning and end. It doesn't really give you a clear view, though. When confronted about it, Nintendo said they couldn't confirm nor deny the pink pikmin. They did, however, confirm that new unannounced pikmin would be seen later in the game.
In Pikmin for the wii you need have a group of pikmin by you then press 1 and the pikmin will carry you back to their onion.
