While in the Piklopedia, press the "Z" button immediately upon selecting the Waterwraith to petrify its roller. When the Waterwraith itself lands, it too will be encased in stone, but the roller will revert to its normal state before the creature itself. Petrify it again, and the Wraith is normal, but not the rollers; the Wraith will have problems lifting them. Its audio will get messed up, as it cries with each attempt to pick up the front roller. It is possible to do this in the main game (and Challenge Mode) as well, but the beast won't turn purple when Purple Pikmin are thrown at it. This is because it needs to lift its rollers first. | While in the Piklopedia, press the "Z" button immediately upon selecting the Waterwraith to petrify its roller.

It is possible to defeat the waterwraith while petrified. First, it must be without its rollers, and the player must deplete its health as far as possible. Then, when frozen, if Purple Pikmin are thrown onto it, it should die in that state, shattering and leaving 6-7 pools of nectar and spray of any kind. | It is possible to defeat the waterwraith while petrified.

Another glitch will occur. It is likely that this is caused by the Waterwraith's head coming into contact with the [[Research Pod]] after having lost its rollers. The outcome is a change in the way it moves: instead of walking, the creature glides along; and any Pikmin that touch it are thrown out of the way, though unharmed. The amount of health it had previously to the glitch occurring determines whether or not it can be damaged once in this state. | Another glitch will occur.

Another glitch is known to occur when the Waterwraith just stays in one place, randomly switching directions. It can be seen in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGZ3OQ6h6qo | |||

Still another glitch happens when the Waterwraith is hit with a Purple Pikmin while running. The Waterwraith may turn clear while in the crouching position it is normally purple in. | |||
