=== Pikmin ===
It is vulnerable on all parts of its body, and has moderately low health. [[Purple Pikmin]] will automatically make this creature fall due to their weight; they are also good for defeating it, as stunning it will prevent it from getting back into the air. When defeated, all undigested Pikmin will be recovered.
 
=== Captains ===
With the [[Rocket Fist]], a [[captain]] can hit a Jellyfloat above him with his third punch. Without this upgrade, the only way to do damage is to hit the creature while on a raised ledge next to it.  Both of these methods take a long time, however, so using Pikmin is recommended.
