'''Mitites''' ({{j|タマゴムシ|Tamago Mushi|Egg Insect}}) are small and pink creatures with white shells and six legs, appearing in {{p2}} and {{p4}}. They cannot directly harm [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] or [[Oatchi]], but when nearby, cause them to run in [[panic]], which can inadvertently lead them to danger, like a [[hazard]]. When stumbled upon, they appear in a swarm of ten, scuttling around, and just need to be alive in order for nearby Pikmin to panic. In ''Pikmin 2'' exclusively, [[Purple Pikmin]] are the only type of Pikmin who are not disturbed by this enemy.

In ''Pikmin 2'' exclusively, [[Purple Pikmin]] are the only type of Pikmin who are not disturbed by this enemy.


Any [[egg]] in ''Pikmin 2'', both on the ground and from a [[Honeywisp]], has a 5% chance of containing a group of ten Mitites, which means they can be found anywhere eggs are. Sets of ten can also burrow up from under the ground in specific locations, such as sublevel 10 of the [[Hole of Heroes]]. Finally, a group of thirty is also released from the body of a [[Raging Long Legs]] after its defeat if it isn’t carrying a treasure. In Pikmin 4, Mitite spawns are predetermined, and they appear outside of eggs much more frequently. Honeywisps never hold Mitite infested eggs.

Sets of ten can also burrow up from under the ground in specific locations, such as sublevel 10 of the [[Hole of Heroes]]. Finally, groups of Mitites are released from the bodies of a [[Raging Long Legs]] in ''Pikmin 2'' and a [[Baldy Long Legs]] in [[Olimar's Shipwreck Tale]] after death, the former only if it is not carrying a treasure. In ''Pikmin 4'', Mitite spawns are predetermined, and they appear outside of eggs much more frequently. Honeywisps never hold Mitite infested eggs.


Every creature in the swarm drops a pool of [[nectar]] when killed, which makes them valuable for building a flowered army. In ''Pikmin 4'', certain Mitites drop [[ultra-spicy nectar]]. When trying to get [[Poko]]s, they are also somewhat efficient. The reason Mitites are found inside eggs is because they lay ''their'' eggs inside the eggs of other organisms, making them parasitoids. Strangely, they cannot be [[ultra-bitter spray|petrified]] if they come out of an egg, but otherwise are petrified normally.

In ''Pikmin 2'', Mitites in eggs only come out once the egg is broken. Those that are hidden underground will come out if Pikmin or leaders get near, or if an [[Emperor Bulblax]] in the same sublevel roars. They can also be found in the [[Raging Long Legs]] in the [[Hole of Heroes]] after its treasure is collected. Once a group of Mitites appears, any nearby non-Purple Pikmin will start panicking. The enemies start moving around aimlessly as well. Any Mitites that are not killed will eventually burrow underground after a set amount of time.

Mitites appear more frequently hidden underground in ''Pikmin 4'', and cause [[Oatchi]] to start panicking upon appearing. Their egg spawns are pre-determined, and Purple Pikmin are no longer immune to panic. Mitites can not be unearthed by a Bulblax's roar, as they are never encountered together. Mitties also spawn from the [[Baldy Long Legs]] in [[Olimar's Shipwreck Tale]].

Mitites can appear inside any egg in the game, including eggs carried by [[Honeywisp]]s. Once an egg breaks, there is a 5% chance that a group will come out. Besides that, Mitites burrow from under the ground when approached, or when called by an Emperor Bulblax's scream, in specific caves, normally in dead ends:

{{transcript|The cheeky Mitite lays its eggs inside the eggs of other creatures to provide its offspring with an easy first meal. When they come wriggling and squiggling out, it's spine-chilling! But you can't blame the newly hatched larvae. After all, you might enjoy an egg or two yourself now and then.}}

自分の卵を他生物の卵に産みつけ、養分として成長する虫。自力では硬い殻の卵を割ることができず、ピクミンが大地のエキスを求めて卵を割る習性に依存している。

'''Translation'''
{{transcript|
An insect that lays its eggs in the eggs of other organisms and uses them as nutrients to grow. Unable to crack the hard-shelled eggs on its own, it relies on the Pikmin's habit of cracking eggs in search of nectar.
Feature #1: Parasitizing eggs
:On average, about 10 Mitites lurk in a single egg.
:(Image text:
:*"The pheromone emitted by the adults has a scent that Pikmin dislike"
:*"They scatter flowers and buds")
Feature #2: Appearing and disappearing
:They emerge from various objects, not limited to eggs.
:(Image text:
:*"They jump out from the shadows"
:*"They burrow underground to find new hiding places"
:*"They can even hatch inside the body of an Arachnorb and continue to be parasites until the host dies")
