When it spawns, it pops out from underneath the ground. When there are no Pikmin or leaders nearby, it waddles around to explore a small area immediately outside of its "home" , but if one gets into view, it becomes alarmed and dashes to its original spot, where it burrows underground. After being left alone for a bit, it will reemerge and repeat the cycle. Given unknown rules, it may decide to stay underground until it's left alone, or it will cautiously poke its head out to survey the area. When it burrows, its health is entirely restored. Other than that, some parts of the enemy are unfinished, in that it has no particle effects, some animations are a bit jerky, and parts of its logic are missing, in that Pikmin can latch on to it while it buries and continue to attack it, even through the ground. If Pikmin are used to pick up the unused berry bait object and place berries near the kakureimo, the creature will immediately rush toward the berry and "consume" it. This will cause it to temporarily ignore Pikmin until it is attacked or it notices Pikmin again, in which case it rushes back to its original spot and drops the berry.{{cite youtube|gkkCeLvIHHY|of the ''kakureimo'' in action}} | When it spawns, it pops out from underneath the ground.
