The Waterwraith is a ??? found in Pikmin 2 found in all of the sublevels of the Submerged Castle and in Bully Den in the Challenge Mode. Its appearance is generally humanoid in shape, with the suggestion of a head, body, arms and legs, but without distinct characteristics, and with a watery, transparent body. The Ship notes that although it can be seen, its sensors detect nothing, leading to the conclusion that the Waterwraith's physical form is anchored in another dimension. It is one of the most dangerous enemies, as it can kill Pikmin by just rolling over them once. When encountered in the Submerged Castle, but not in the Bully Den, its music will play - music that is played only then. The following is a sample.
The Waterwraith's name is a combination of water, given its watery appearance, and wraith, which means ghost or phantom.
