The '''Plasm Wraith''' ({{j|アメニュウドウ|Ame Nyuudou|Candy Nyuudou}}) is the final [[boss]] in ''[[Pikmin 3]]'' and is responsible for capturing [[Captain Olimar]]. It is a virtually featureless and vaguely-humanoid [[Waterwraith]]-like being made entirely out of an unknown gelatinous substance, which allows it to split different parts of its body off to create other semi-independent entities or even change shapes.

The Wraith is encountered at the [[Formidable Oak]], having taken Olimar captive with what appears to be curiosity rather than maliciousness. Efforts to rescue Olimar cause the being to enter an [[Mysterious Life-Form|alternate form]] and slowly crawl towards the explorers, attempting to retake him, until it reaches the outside of the oak. Once this occurs, the Wraith assumes its original form, detains Olimar in its nucleus and begins to attack, starting the final boss fight. Defeating the Wraith immediately activates the game's ending.

Just like with the [[Waterwraith]], {{j|アメ|ame}} means "candy", though {{j|雨|ame}} means "rain" &ndash; it can also be noted that it always [[rain]]s during the Plasm Wraith's boss battle (provided that no exploits are used). {{j|アメ|ame}} can also be short for "amoeba" (written in katakana like "ameba"), a unicellular organism usually found in water and Nyuudou.
