The '''Plasm Wraith''' is the final boss in ''[[Pikmin 3]]''. It appears as a golden, humanoid blob of a loose jellylike substance similar to the [[Waterwraith]], except instead of stone rollers, it surrounds a solid cube of gold (not unlike the [[Goolix]]). | The '''Plasm Wraith''' is the final boss in ''[[Pikmin 3]]''.

The Plasm Wraith is encountered at the [[Formidable Oak]], having taken [[Olimar]] captive with what appears to be curiosity rather than maliciousness.

Efforts to rescue Olimar cause the being to become transparent and invincible and slowly ooze towards Olimar, attempting to retake him, until he reaches the outside of the oak. Once this occurs the Plasm Wraith takes its golden humanoid form, locks Olimar in its core, and begins to attack. | ||

Proper disposal of the creature involves forcing it to lose its gelatinous exterior and having Pikmin attack the loose blobs, causing them to disappear. As this happens, the Plasm Wraith slowly shrinks and gets slightly faster; once enough of it has been destroyed, it is defeated. Should parts of the Plasm Wraith's body sit around for too long, it will reabsorb all of it, thus making it crucial to destroy them quickly lest the player risk incurring the wrath of the Plasm Wraith longer than need be. | ||
