Mammoth Snootwhacker: Difference between revisions

The Mammoth Snootwhacker will patrol a given area where it naturally spawns. When a Captain, Pikmin, or Oatchi enters this area, it will run up to them and begin attacking. Its first attack, the sweeping attack, is a long-range movement of its trunk in the area surrounding it, sending Pikmin every which way when it connects. The Snootwhacker telegraphs this attack with a few circular movements of its trunk. This attack will knock the player off of Oatchi, as well as knock both down if they are caught in the swing, but is otherwise non-lethal. After this attack, it will usually try to attack by curling its trunk up before slamming it down on anything directly in front of it. This will [[crush]] anything caught in the attack (except for [[Rock Pikmin]], provided they are on soft ground). The player can, of course, send Oatchi at it with a Rush, causing it to trip up for a while. If hit again, it will be flipped over, exposing its belly. If given enough time in either knocked-down state, it will get back up and immediately use its crushing attack. If the player leaves its patroling area, the Snootwhacker will go back to normal, patrolling the area as expected.
