The Flighty Joustmite is an enemy in Pikmin 3. It seems to have the capability to fly. It acts much like a 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.
Attacking The Flighty Joustmite
A Flighty Joustmite attacks by flying, and stabbing it's mouth/beak straight down upon it's prey, if it misses, however, it will be stuck for multiple seconds, and this can be a good time to attack it. To attack it, you have to hit the fleshy white part on it's back, which isn't guarded with a shell, Rock Pikmin can make simple work out of this creature, and quickly take them down. They can also attack while on land. While in the air, it is harder to hit, so Winged Pikmin are recommended to have while taking these down, so you can attack it while airborne.
