Poison Sidesnithe

The Poison Sidesnithe is a medium-sized enemy named for the tentacles on the sides of its body, which it can stretch out to impale and eat Pikmin that try to walk past it. Because of this and the hard shell on its back, the front of this enemy is its only weak spot, and it can also hop backwards to move away from an approaching attacker, leaving a puddle of poison slime with each leap that makes getting close to its weak point a bit tougher. Poison Sidesnithes are usually found in narrow corridors that make it harder to maneuver around their poison puddles as well.
