Water Dumple: Difference between revisions

'''Water Dumples''' are enemies in both Pikmin games. These enemies are members of the Grub-dog family, and act similar to Bulborbs. They are most commonly found in the water, but can survive on the land as well. They resemble blue shellfish with relatively large mouths. The Water Dumples in [[Pikmin 1]] move much more quickly and are bigger than their counterparts in [[Pikmin 2]], but both can be defeated easily if the player is cautious and swarms them. They also seem to continue to eat even under attack rather than defending themselves. Just like Bulborbs, [[Purple Pikmin]] will work well if this creature is found on land. A Water Dumple can be defeated easily by captains as it has few hit points. The [[Rocket Fist]] will do impressive damage on its third combo-punch.

==Killing Strategy==

====Pikmin====

Swarming it with a lot of Pikmin is usually very effective. If these enemies are in large groups, however, and the Pikmin with the captain are few, it is likely that some Pikmin will be eaten, as the Dumples attack with quick lunges. It is advisable to either separate the creatures by luring them away from the group one after another, or to use only the captains.

Water Dumples are easily killed with attacks from either Captains (both is more effective), and their attacks can be avoided without much effort.
