The Flighty Joustmite is an enemy in Pikmin 3. This creature has the capability to fly. It acts much like the Cloaking Burrow-nit and the Joustmite, its relatives, in that it lashes its proboscis out to eat Pikmin. The Flighty Joustmite is not very common, and is only seen in a few areas, and only in Pikmin 3.
Battle Strategy
The Flighty Joustmite attacks by flying and stabbing its spear-like appendage straight down upon its prey. They can also attack while on the ground. If it misses whilst airborne, its joust will be stuck in the dirt for multiple seconds, making this an opportune time to attack it. To do so, you must hit the fleshy white part on its back, which isn't guarded by a shell. Rock Pikmin make fighting this creature a cakewalk, as they are immune to its stabbing probuscis. However, if it loses half of its health, it will begin to fly. While in the air, it is harder to hit and its health regenerate quickly, much like the Shearwigs do, so Winged Pikmin are recommended to use when it is airborne.
