The '''Foolix''' ({{j|ミツモチ|Mitsumochi|Nectar Mochi}}) is a [[boss]] enemy in {{p4}}. A relative of the [[Goolix]], it is found in the fourth and final sublevel of the [[Secluded Courtyard]]. It resembles a yellowish amoeba with an orange star-shaped nucleus, which possesses a flagellum-like tail.

The Foolix can be fought in one of two ways: the first is to get behind it and have Oatchi or at least 15 Pikmin pull on its tail when it extends through its cytoplasm, which will cause its nucleus to burst out of its membrane and leave it vulnerable  until it can reform its cytoplasm. Using [[Ice Pikmin]] after its out of the goo will freeze it before is can recover. A bomb rock will also cause the Foolix to burst if it is engulfed.

Alternatively, Ice Pikmin can be used to freeze and shatter the Foolix for the same effect if it engulfs them, although this must be done quickly to avoid Pikmin losses since any Pikmin it has engulfed will be trapped inside it. With 100 Pikmin, the Foolix freezes in about one second, and Oatchi's Rush can instantly break it. By freezing the Foolix after the break, it's possible to defeat in two cycles without Spicy Spray.

'''Translation'''
{{transcript|
It has a gelatinous body with a single star-shaped nucleus with a fin-like flagellum. In spite of its huge body, it is a primitive life-form made up of a single cell.
Feature #1: Mimicry
:It ambushes its prey by mimicking nectar.
:(Image text: "When approached, it suddenly grows to a gigantic size and feeds on prey by taking it into its body, which contains digestive juices")
Feature #2: Gelatinous body
:It moves by stretching and contracting its body and using its fin-like flagellum.
:(Image text:
:*"If the nucleus is removed from the body, the body splatters"
:*"After a while, the droplets gather and it returns to its original form")
