Honeywisps (ピキマキ) are very mysterious creatures found in both Pikmin 1 and Pikmin 2 . Very little is known about them. When they die, they vanish suddenly. They tend to glow and make high pitched cries. They float across the air carrying a drop of nectar or an egg. They are found if Olimar walks through the spot or foliage where they reside. Simply throw Pikmin at them to make them drop the egg and it will burst. The contents may contain nectar, spray, or Mitites. Mitites are found in their eggs because of their parasitic characteristics. These enemies cannot be petrified.
Pikmin is the only game where Honeywisps are seen carrying nectar. In Pikmin 2, they carry eggs, which may contain nectar or a spray drop.
Notes
Reel notes
"This creature collects nectar for the larvae waiting in its nest."
Olimar's Notes
"This floating life-form drifts effortlessly on the winds. Upon death, its physical structure instantly collapses, and as the creature is particularly elusive and difficult to catch, no sample specimens have been acquired as of yet. If we could simply recover a live sample, research on this species would likely proceed more smoothly..."
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!"
Olimar's Voyage 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."
