Mamuta
Mamuta
Scientific name unknown
The Mamuta is an enemy found in the Pikmin games. It resembles a huge, rocky creature with two small eyes. In the first game, it will just stand and watch the Pikmin walk by. If the smallest attack is done to it, however, it will become enraged and pound the Pikmin into the ground. This, strangley enough, doesn't kill them, but will replant them and turn them into flower Pikmin. In Pikmin 2, they have been made more aggressive, attacking when the Pikmin come close. They still don't kill the Pikmin, however. If killing them is necessary, they are easy to attack, as they have smaller health. In the first game, they are found at the Impact Site on even-numbered days (on odd-numbered days, you will encounter the Goolix instead.)
A good strategy is involved with them.
Louie's Notes
Inedible. Tastes like chicken.
How to Kill
Pikmin
Swarm it andhope it doesn't put all your Pikmin into the ground. If you have the Pluckaphone, that's not a problem. also easy to kill if you keep throwing purple pikmin on it.
Captains
This will take a while, but keep to the back and punch it. If you get in front, it'll plant you, so stay behind it at all times.
