Its weak point is the yellow nucleus, when [[Blue Pikmin]] are [[throw|thrown]] directly at it they will damage the Goolix causing it to knock off the Pikmin. If Pikmin are attacking the blue nucleus when one hits the yellow one, the damage taken by the Goolix is multiplied. If more [[Pikmin Family|Pikmin]] attack the blue nucleus, the damage will go even higher. When it is attacked, it will smack the nuclei together, knocking off all Pikmin on it. When it is defeated, its membrane breaks and its watery insides spray out in all directions, leaving no trace it was ever there, besides dropping 4 [[Randomness|random]] colored 5 [[pellet]]s.
Its large, yellow nucleus is completely impervious to damage, while the smaller, blue one can be pummeled by [[Blue Pikmin]]. The Pikmin can damage the Goolix this way, but the process takes a long time.
 
During the battle, the creature will attempt to chase after Olimar, but will be limited if Pikmin are hitting on its small core; the more Pikmin attacking, the less it can move. Once the Goolix is stretched out, the two cores can be made to snap against one another, which causes a good amount of damage to the Goolix. There are two ways to make the core snap: either [[whistle]] the Pikmin attacking the small core, which will make it bump against the large core, or throw a Pikmin directly on top of the large core, which will make it clank against the smaller one. Of course, the more stretched out the Goolix is, the more violent the collision between nuclei, and the more damage the creature will suffer. The more Pikmin are attacking the small nucleus, the more the Goolix has so stretch out to reach the leader.
 
Every time the nuclei smack together, the Pikmin involved will be tossed all around, so be ready to call them back. When it is defeated, its membrane breaks and its watery insides spray out in all directions, leaving no trace it was ever there, besides dropping 4 [[Randomness|random]] colored 5 [[pellet]]s.


If the Goolix is near the right of the tree-stump arena and the yellow, brain-like nucleus is hit by a Blue Pikmin, that Pikmin, or the other Blue Pikmin that are attacking the smaller, blue nucleus may be knocked into the out-of-bounds, forest like terrain. Many things can happen when this occurs, either the Pikmin will slide around (throwing Pikmin onto this ledge reveals that it's slippery, as the Pikmin will slide off) and then fall off the ledge and into the area with the [[Pearly Clamclamp]]s or where the [[Main Engine]] was, or they slide too far for [[Olimar]] to call back (some will even continue sliding until they are off-screen and then will die). These Pikmin will be left behind unless you reset the day.
