Editing Plasm Wraith

The[[File:Placeholder|video|right|300px]] [[File:Placeholder|right|300px]] '''Amenyuudou '''is the final boss of [[Pikmin3]]. It resembles an amorphous, ominous, [[Waterwraith]]-like being made completely out of a golden substance (stolen from the hell of [[The Ship]]). It lacks most notable features aside from a torso, 2 stumpy legs, short, arm-like structures that can stretch, and a hole in the middle of where its "face" would be, which seems to be both an eye and mouth. As with most final bosses, the path leading up to it, as well as the boss fight itself, require knowledge of every Pikmin type. The creature is responsible for the capture of [[Captain Olimar]].

==Final Battle==

The Amenyuudou has many phases. This sections covers its final fight.

Upon entering the arena, the Ammenyuudou will begin slowly walking toward the player and their Pikmin. When close enough, it will extende thin, needle-like arms from its "shoulders" to skewer Pikmin and kill them. [[Rock Pikmin]] are immune to this attack. Throwing any Pikmin at its body will do damage to it. However, its health meter differs from all other creatures in the Pikmin world in that it is a beveled-gold color, rendering it more difficult to tell exactly how much health the boss has lost.

The boss will attack my spewing large masses of liquid gold onto the arena, then spitting out a solid cube of gold. The mass will form around this solid cube and take on the form of an element to guard it. It has many forms, each which can only be killed with certain Pikmin types...

1. The gold will protect the cube in a bubble of water. Only [[Blue Pikmin]] can defeat it.

2. The gold will turn molten and surround the floor with fire. Only [[Red Pikmin]] can defeat it.

3. The gold will form a spike underneath the cube, setting it high up in the air. The cube will them generate an electric barrier around it and the gold. Only [[Yellow Pikmin]] can defeat it.

4. The gold will turn into a glass cube that slowly tumbles around the stage, crushing Pikmin. Only [[Rock Pikmin]] can defeat it.

Once the elemental hazard has been destroyed, any type of Pikmin can be used to destroy the bits of gold matter still left on the floor. The more gold the boss uses, the smaller and faster it becomes.

The boss is also capable of re-absorbing lost gold in order to regrow it size and regain health. Every time it shakes Pikmin off of its body, it also releases gold onto the arena. Eventually, the creature will begin to fly up in the air and attack with its needle-like arms from above. In this stage, only [[Winged Pikmin]] can attack it.

Simply repretedly attack the boss' body to defeat it. However, the creature has a very large ammount of health and does not have any targetable weak points that cause it to recoil, so it can freely attack Pikmin at any time.

Once defeated, the creature will spew gold everywhere and shrink in size. Once at its smallest size, it turns into a gold cube, which shatters to reveal [[Olimar]] inside.

==Trivia==
* Even though the Amenyuudou is defeated, it is revealed to still be alive in the final cutscene.

* The Amenyuudou and its previous form, the '''Amebouzu''', may have been inspired by the '''Umibouzu, '''a Japanese cryptid that snatches treasures and captains from their ships, and then crashes the ships. Both creatures are described with similar appearances.
