A Sputtlefish can easily be defeated with six or seven [[Blue Pikmin]]. If all of them are able to latch onto the creature at the same time (they should all be preferably flowered), then it will be dead before it can release ink, which acts like [[poison]]. If the creature is given the chance to ink, whistle them back to avoid incident. Alternatively, the Pikmin can be left alone, and the ink will gradually wear off. This is not recommended, as it is a waste of time as well as a chance for Pikmin to get eaten by the fish (though unlikely). When it does ink, it might move around a bit, chasing it may be necessary at times. If you come across a group of Sputtlefish, the strategy stays mostly the same; send 5-10 Pikmin onto each, and they won't be able to do much to help each other. If a Pikmin does get caught, you will likely be unable to save it if the creature is at full health, so it is always best to strike first. | A Sputtlefish can easily be defeated with six or seven [[Blue Pikmin]].

If time is a concern, you can easily leave a small group of Blue Pikmin to attack a Sputtlefish, then go off and do something else that needs to be done, and the Pikmin should be able to take the creature down with any trouble. | If time is a concern, you can easily leave a small group of Blue Pikmin to attack a Sputtlefish, then go off and do something else that needs to be done, and the Pikmin should be able to take the creature down with any trouble. | ||
