Members
Waddlepus
- Main article: Waddlepus.
The Waddlepus is a purple octopus-like creature that is always found sleeping. When approached by Pikmin or their leaders, a Waddlepus will wake up and begin attacking them by puffing up and producing bubbles from either its mouth or the yellow pores on its back. These bubbles cannot harm Pikmin or leaders but can trap them inside. When left alone, a Waddlepus will return to its sleeping spot and return to its slumber.
