The '''Electric Cottonade''' ({{j|デンキワタボウシ|Denki Wata Boushi|Electric Wataboushi}}) is a [[boss]] in {{hp}}. It is the boss battle in [[Flashes of Fear]], being the fourth boss fight in the game. Two versions of the creature show up: the main, mature Electric Cottonade, which the player is tasked to defeat, and eight young Electric Cottonades, which cannot be harmed. The children look like balls of cotton with simple eye stalks, and can shoot arcs of electricity towards the floor. The adult looks more similar to gray {{w|cotton candy}} with bulbous eyes on stalks, and can shoot balls of electricity at the floor, as well as suck up [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] and [[Captain Olimar]] through its tube-like mouth.

The "electric" part of its name is probably referring to its children's electric properties and its attacks. "Cottonade" isn't a real word, although it does have a real word in it, "cotton". This is most likely referring both the adult and children's fluffy cotton-like appearance.

 

Its scientific name is ''Lanugo electropaleae''. ''electro'' is a play off of "electric", while "paleae" is a term used in botany (though the connection, if any, is unclear).

 

Its internal name is <code>denkiwata</code>, its Japanese name. Its generator name is <code>boss_spark_fluff</code>, as it is a boss that creates electric sparks with its fluffy exterior.
