'''Mitites''' ({{j|タマゴムシ|Tamago Mushi|Egg Insect}}) are small, pink creatures with white shells and five legs, found only in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. They cannot directly harm [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], but can inadvertently cause them to be killed, such as causing them to run in panic towards a [[hazard]]. When stumbled upon, they appear in a swarm of ten, scuttling around, and just need to be alive in order for it to make nearby Pikmin panic. Any [[egg]], both on the ground and from a [[Honeywisp]], has a chance of containing Mitites, which means they can be found anywhere eggs are. These creatures always appear in groups of 10, and can also burrow up from under the ground in specific locations, such as sublevel 10 of the [[Hole of Heroes]]. They are released from the bodies of the [[Raging Long Legs]] if it has been defeated before. Any Mitites that are not killed will eventually burrow underground after a set amount of time.
'''Mitites''' ({{j|タマゴムシ|Tamago Mushi|Egg Insect}}) are small, pink creatures with white shells and five legs, found only in {{p2}}. They cannot directly harm [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], but when nearby, cause them to run in panic, which can inadvertently lead them to danger, like a [[hazard]]. When stumbled upon, they appear in a swarm of ten, scuttling around, and just need to be alive in order for nearby Pikmin to panic. Purple Pikmin are the only type of Pikmin who are not disturbed by this enemy.


Every creature in the swarm drops a pool of [[nectar]] when killed, which makes them valuable for building a flowered army. When trying to get [[Poko]]s, they are also somewhat efficient. The reason Mitites are found inside eggs is because they lay ''their'' eggs inside the eggs of other organisms, making them parasitoids. Strangely, they cannot be [[ultra-bitter spray|petrified]] in the [[area]]s or [[cave]]s they are found in, but can be petrified in sublevel 6 of [[Bulblax Kingdom]] and in the [[Piklopedia]] by pressing {{button|gc|z|wii|1}}.

==Behavior==
Mitites in eggs only come out once the egg is broken. Those that are hidden underground will come out if Pikmin or leaders get near, or if an [[Emperor Bulblax]] in the same sublevel roars. Once a group of Mitites appears, any nearby non-Purple Pikmin will start panicking. The enemies start run around aimlessly as well. Any Mitites that are not killed will eventually burrow underground after a set amount of time.
 
==Locations==
Mitites can appear inside any egg in the game, including eggs carried by [[Honeywisp]]s. Once an egg breaks, there is a 5% chance that a group will come out. Besides that, Mitites burrow from under the ground when approached, or when called by an Emperor Bulblax's scream, in specific caves, normally in dead ends:
* Sublevel 4 of the [[Hole of Beasts]]
* Sublevel 6 of the [[Bulblax Kingdom]]
* Sublevel 10 of the [[Hole of Heroes]]
* Sublevel 1 of [[Three Color Training]]
* Sublevel 2 of [[Novice Training]]
 
Besides that, a group of Mitites also comes out of the [[Raging Long Legs]] in sublevel 15 of the Hole of Heroes, if the [[Remembered Old Buddy]] has already been collected.

The best way to kill Mitites is to [[throw]] [[Purple Pikmin]] onto them: any type will work, but Purple Pikmin send out shock waves that kill all of the surrounding Mitites; without purples, a direct hit is required to kill a single enemy in one hit-and-run. In addition, Purple Pikmin are the only type that do not seem to be afraid of Mitites.

Another way is to grab every single Pikmin you have ([[Red Pikmin]] are preferred) and [[Group move|swarm]] them, this is easy because they sometimes get killed in one hit.

Leader [[punch]]es go through Mitites without harming them, but if they are petrified, the punches actually do damage and can kill, despite the [[HUD#Health wheel|health wheel]] not showing.
