It is a small flying insectoid creature with a large, glowing abdomen. It has a yellow face and blue body with two small antennae and big red eyes. It attacks by hovering in the sky with its bee-like wings, and dropping toxic spores on [[Captain Olimar]] and [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]. | ||

About halfway through the level, there is an open room with two [[doorway]]s in the area's "backside". Next to each of the doorways is a Spornet. Two more appear in the section after the player goes through the doorway. These are a bit trickier to defeat, since they are higher and above a stick. The final one is close to a [[vine]] leading to the [[Ominous Vault]]. | ||

There are small groups of about two scattered across the area, usually above sticks and [[Minor obstacles#Leaf platform|leaf platform]]s. They are relatively easy to defeat, since the level supplies the player with [[Winged Pikmin]] and not too many appear at once. | ||

They are often found high above the ground, and are best dealt with using Yellow Pikmin. Although groups of them can be overwhelming, killing one will immediately destroy its spore, if it's currently falling. With good aim, you can kill the Spornet before the Pikmin hits the spore. | ||

The Spornet’s name is a portmanteau of the words | The Spornet’s name is a portmanteau of the words "spore" and "hornet". The spore part of its name comes from its purple spore-like projectiles, and the hornet part of its name is due to the fact they resemble hornets. Additionally, the family name "Fuzzbuzz" is a portmanteau of fuzz (referring to the Spornet’s fuzzy abdomen), and buzz (referring to the sound a bee, or hornet makes). | ||
