Ravenous Whiskerpillar: Difference between revisions

The '''Ravenous Whiskerpillar''' (ハナゲイモ, ''Hanageimo'') is an [[enemy]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. These enemies are not harmful to the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], but are dangerous to the [[Burgeoning Spiderwort]] plants. They will eat the berries on the plants, which are necessary to make [[sprays]]. They can be found in the [[Awakening Wood]], the [[Perplexing Pool]] and the [[Wistful Wild]]; each time, they are near two or more [[Burgeoning Spiderwort]] plants. When confronted on a Burgeoning Spiderwort, they will drop off the plant and burrow into the ground, giving the player a chance to attack it. Strangely enough, when killed, they don't seem to be dead; carrying them will make them squirm and emit more of their hissing, and a [[spirit]] does not appear. Just before they are pulled into the onion, they struggle and hiss even more rapidly. The in-game [[Piklopedia]] states that they are a larval form of another creature, but it says that mature specimens have not been found yet. Interestingly, even though it is the only enemy that does not appear in any underground areas, it has a treasure value of 1 [[poko]] according to the [[Piklopedia]].
