Lesser Filthag

The Lesser Filthag is an enemy introduced in Pikmin X: Deep Freeze. A puddle of living mud wearing a small skull as armor, the Lesser Filthag is a common enemy in the later areas of the game. Pikmin that touch its toxic flesh will become deflowered and poisoned. White Pikmin are immune to both of these effects, but even they are not safe from the beast's main attack: grabbing a Pikmin and throwing it back at the rest of your army as a ball of mud. This mud ball is small, but can crush Pikmin, so get your Pikmin out of the way before the Filthag tosses it at them. When defeated, the muddy part of the enemy dissolves into the ground, leaving behind the skull it was wearing.
