The Chillyhop is a variation of the [[Yellow Wollyhop]] found in ''Pikmin 4''. It creates patches of ice when it lands after a jump, which will freeze any Pikmin type other than [[Ice Pikmin]] on contact. Its skin is not icy however, and can be safely attacked by any type of Pikmin. | The Chillyhop is a variation of the [[Yellow Wollyhop]] found in ''Pikmin 4''.

The Masterhop is a giant Yellow Wollyhop which has survived into advanced old age. It can jump with enough force to leave a visible indent in certain, malleable environments. | The Masterhop is a giant Yellow Wollyhop which has survived into advanced old age.

Wolpoles resemble tadpoles, and are in fact the juvenile form of amphitubers. Wolpoles are one of the weakest enemies in the [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' series]]. In the first game, they only appear in the [[The Forest of Hope]] and [[The Distant Spring]]. They are typically a hard-to-get, low-reward enemy in that they are fast swimmers that run away and only produce one seed when carried to the [[Onion]]. In ''Pikmin 2'', they are found in the [[Awakening Wood]] and [[Perplexing Pool]] areas, as well as being found in the sublevels of some caves. Also, they can occasionally get out of the water. When they do this, they will flop high in the air and their speed is drastically reduced. The creature's name was previous known as "Wogpole" in North America, but was changed starting with {{p1s}} and {{p2s}} to make it so the offensive term "wog" is not used in any Amphituber species. | Wolpoles resemble tadpoles, and are in fact the juvenile form of amphitubers.

Wollyhops are a species of mature amphituber that live in the bowels of subterranean areas. They are gray and have red eyes with orange feet and an orange underside, and are usually found in watery cave-live areas, such as [[cave]]s and [[The Forest Navel]] in [[Pikmin (game)|''Pikmin'']]. They are defeated in the same manner as Yellow Wollyhops, but are more aggressive, and attack with a jump more readily. The lack of skin coloration is due to living in sunlight-free places. In early Pikmin games, the creature's name was Wollywog in America but since [[Pikmin 1+2]], the creature's name has been changed worldwide to make it so the offensive term "wog" is not used in any Amphituber species. | Wollyhops are a species of mature amphituber that live in the bowels of subterranean areas.

Yellow Wollyhops are more slender, taller, yellow versions of Wollyhops that live near bodies of water out in the open like in The Distant Spring or Perplexing Pool as opposed to underground areas, though this is not always true. Like Wollyhops, they try to [[crush]] [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] by jumping into the air. To defeat them, it is best to approach from behind and [[throw]] Pikmin on top, calling them back before the creature falls. In [[Pikmin 1+2]], the name has been changed from "Yellow Wollywog", to make it so the offensive term "wog" is not used in any Amphituber species. | Yellow Wollyhops are more slender, taller, yellow versions of Wollyhops that live near bodies of water out in the open like in The Distant Spring or Perplexing Pool as opposed to underground areas, though this is not always true.

Young Yellow Wollywogs are Yellow Wollywogs in an earlier part of their life cycle, as seen in ''Hey! Pikmin''. It is much smaller, with only one pair of legs, and part of its tail is still attached. It can be defeated by throwing a single Pikmin onto it. | Young Yellow Wollywogs are Yellow Wollywogs in an earlier part of their life cycle, as seen in ''Hey! Pikmin''.
