(Fairly obvious, as you could freeze it to any given timing, with the Wraith trying to fulfill its next programmed movement)

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.

Also, when the Waterwraith pulls up his stone rollers, petrify it.
 
Then when it wears off, do it again. If your timing is correct you should only petrify it's rollers in mid air. The Waterwraith's arms will be stretched backwards grabbing the roller in mid air while it sits on the other roller facing its face on the ground, trying to pull back the 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.
