Upon entering the arena, the Plasm Wraith will begin slowly walking toward the player and their Pikmin. When close enough, it will extend thin, needle-like arms from its "shoulders" to skewer Pikmin, raise them to the hole in its head and "eat" them. [[Rock Pikmin]] are immune to this attack. Throwing any Pikmin at its body will do damage to it. However, its health meter differs from all other creatures in the Pikmin world in that it is a beveled-gold color, rendering it more difficult to tell exactly how much health the boss has lost. | Upon entering the arena, the Plasm Wraith will begin slowly walking toward the player and their Pikmin.

It will not actively attack Pikmin, instead, he will follow the captains and attack when they are close. You can seperate the captains as a distraction, with one captain handling all the Pikmin. It is unwise to attack it head-on, as he will not be phased by attacks, and can easily kill the Pikmin. Instead, throw just a few Pikmin at it, preferably it's backside, until it tries to shake Pikmin off by twisting it's body.

Instead, throw just a few Pikmin at it, preferably it's backside, until it tries to shake Pikmin off by twisting it's body. This will cause morphoplasm to fly off of its body. Throw Pikmin at the morphoplasm, or free your Pikmin inside the morphoplasm, the latter is not recommended however, as the Plasm Wraith follows captains specifically, and Pikmin in range will be killed. The Pikmin will destroy the morphoplasm, which will hurt it. As the Pikmin attack the morphoplasm, throw a few Pikmin at it, repeating the process. | ||

The mass will form around this solid cube and take on the form of an element to guard it. If the boss spits out a cube, quickly call all Pikmin away from it. It has many forms, each of which can only be killed with certain Pikmin types... | ||

Once the Elemental Plasm has been destroyed, any type of Pikmin can be used to destroy the bits of | Once the Elemental Plasm has been destroyed, any type of Pikmin can be used to destroy the bits of morphoplasm still left on the floor. The more morphoplasm the boss uses, the smaller and faster it becomes. At this time, the boss will also be capable of healing itself by bringing morphoplasm that is on the ground back to it. Any cubes will dissolve before this, and the element surrounding it turns back to morphoplasm. After a while, it is able to drop multiple cubes. Attack one at a time, and make sure there are no idle Pikmin near them. | ||
After its health depletes by 3/4, the boss can become airborne. It can only be reached by Winged Pikmin in this state, but the boss usually stays airborne for 5-15 seconds. When airborne, it will not move from its spot, so as long as no Pikmin are near it, they will not be killed. However, it can turn around, even when attacking. It also cannot kill Pikmin directly under it. If the boss is hit with Winged Pikmin, it may fall down and struggle to get up, which can give you an opening for attack. | After its health depletes by 3/4, the boss can become airborne.

Once its health is down to red, you can give your Pikmin a Super-Spicy Spray and send all your Pikmin to attack It. Since the Onion is right beside the battlefield, you may go and deposit all your Pikmin, and pull out all your Red Pikmin and 5 winged Pikmin first, as Red Pikmin do more damage, and Winged Pikmin will knock it down from the air. When near death, it becomes very small in stature, and will hardly be able to attack your Pikmin. Once it "dies", it expells a gold cube, which dissolves to reveal [[Olimar]] inside, and the remaining | Once its health is down to red, you can give your Pikmin a Super-Spicy Spray and send all your Pikmin to attack It.

Once it "dies", it expells a gold cube, which dissolves to reveal [[Olimar]] inside, and the remaining morphoplasm on the floor crawls away and retreats back into the cave. | ||
