The '''Nectarous Dandelfly''' ({{j|ウスバミツモチ|Usuba Mitsu Mochi|Antlion | The '''Nectarous Dandelfly''' ({{j|ウスバミツモチ|Usuba Mitsu Mochi|Antlion Nectar Holder}}) is a harmless enemy in ''[[Pikmin 3]]'' that acts as a replacement for the [[Honeywisp]]. It resembles a large dragonfly-like creature with a segmented body reminiscent of a caterpillar or honeypot ant, and has the face of a butterfly with its proboscis. | ||
The Nectarous Dandelfly drifts carelessly around, not minding enemies or nearby Pikmin. If a Pikmin touches on one of its hind segments, that segment will disconnect from the body, along with all tail segments connected to it. They will all fall onto the ground and collapse into puddles of [[nectar]]. Because there are 5 segments, the number of Pikmin that can be flowered up, which goes from 10 to 50, depends on the location the enemy is hit. Throwing a Pikmin near the creature's head will also result in all five segments falling down. After being hit once, it will swiftly fly away. | The Nectarous Dandelfly drifts carelessly around, not minding enemies or nearby Pikmin.
