It is a light brown eel-like creature resembling a {{w|lamprey}}, with very small eyes, thick purple lips and two rows of large sharp teeth. Further down its body, it gets wider and harbors spike-like protrusions. It is one of the largest bosses in the [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' series]] to date. | ||
Upon attempting to [[Dig|dig up]] the [[Folded Data Glutton]] buried in the center of the arena, the Meerslug appears from beneath the sand, eats the device, and begins to attack the leaders and the Pikmin. It tunnels beneath the side, causing waves of sand to appear across the surface, which signifies its location. It will try to trap and eat Pikmin by creating a sinkhole in the sand that sucks them in. The eating attack it performs at the bottom of its sinkhole does the most damage to leaders out of any attack in the game, taking out 30% of a leader's health in a single chomp. It can also spit balls of sand, which can plant Pikmin. These planted Pikmin can still be eaten by the Meerslug. Upon its defeat, it will spit out the Folded Data Glutton as well as the [[Crimson Banquet]], which breaks into pieces upon hitting the ground. | Upon attempting to [[Dig|dig up]] the [[Folded Data Glutton]] buried in the center of the arena, the Meerslug appears from beneath the sand, eats the device, and begins to attack the leaders and the Pikmin.
