'''Moss''' ({{j|モス|Mosu | '''Moss''' ({{j|モス|Mosu}}) is a space dog in {{p4}}. In the game's prologue she is found by [[Captain Olimar]] when he crash-lands on [[PNF-404]] and quickly befriends him, helping him throughout his search for [[S.S. Dolphin|his ship]]'s missing [[ship part]]s. After the prologue, Moss is seen accompanied by a [[leafling]]-transformed Olimar, and accompanies him during [[Dandori Battle]]s. | ||

She is only ever seen with a leaf on the tip of her tail, much like the one atop a [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]'s stem. | ||

Despite being born lightyears apart from each other, Oatchi and Moss are both stated to descend from the PNF-404 Native [[Ancient Sirehound]], which Olimar believes suggests something deeper about the nature of their universe. | ||
== | ==As an enemy== | ||
Until Olimar is rescued, Moss can be found in the [[Hero's Hideaway]]. According to the Voyage Log, she appears to be guarding his bunker. | |||
She will seek out Pikmin (both idle ones and ones in the player's squad), and whistle for them to put them under her control, much like an [[Antenna Beetle]]. Upon gathering Pikmin, she will try to run off with them. Pikmin under Moss's control cannot be freed until Moss takes significant damage, at which point she will let them go and try to escape; if she does so, she will begin to heal herself. Unlike most enemies, she has a unique map icon. | |||
Moss cannot be permanently defeated; when her health is depleted she will be incapacitated and begin regenerating her health. [[Collin]] will inform the player when Moss's health is fully restored so they can plan their activities accordingly. | |||

Her name comes from her green coat of fur, which resembles {{w|moss}}. Her scientific name, ''Folicanis amicaris'', is based on "foliage", the Latin for "dog", and the Latin phase for "you are friendly". | |||
