A '''Waterwraith''' is what is believed to be a liquid or ectoplasmic creature. Possibly both. It is said that it may even be created from the fear of other things. It is found only in the [[Submerged Castle]] (all sublevels), and in the [[Bully Den]] in [[Challenge Mode]]. It appears to have a human shape, a head, body, arms, and legs, without distinct characteristics though since it is transparent and it is quite heavy. It falls from the sky and moves around on these "rollers". It will chase you and your Pikmin, but is more directed on the active captain. It is invincible to any Pikmin assault, even if [[ultra-bitter spray|petrified]], EXCEPT when attacked by [[Purple Pikmin]]. However, it strangely can't be hurt by purples if petrified, ''unless'' they are thrown in a perfect arch so they make the sound they usually make when they land. When a purple lands on or near the Waterwraith, it turns dark, and becomes vulnerable to ALL Pikmin attacks, but it is not wise to do this when it is on the rollers. When you deplete its health, the rollers crumble and the Waterwraith will run all around the cave. Hit it with more purples and then you can easily attack it with other Pikmin. When you finish it, it will vanish into nothingness and you will be troubled no more. It drops the [[Professional Noisemaker]] the first time you beat it in the [[Submerged Castle]].

It is perhaps more ghost like because in go through others that are already solid. This may also be a minor glitch.

NOTE: In the [[Submerged Castle]], you will only be able to get purples on the last sublevel (5) via the [[Violet Candypop Bud]]s.

While in the Piklopedia, press the "Z" button immediately to petrify his roller. [[Image:Watr.JPG|right|thumb|150px|The Water Wraith while sitting on petrified rollers.]]When the Wraith itself lands, it will also change into stone, but the roller will turn normal earlier. Petrify it again, and the Wraith is normal, but not the rollers, the Wraith will have problems lifting them. Note the sounds it makes. It is possible to do this in story mode as well, but the Wraith won't turn purple because it needs to lift it's rollers first.
