Greater Spotted Jellyfloat

The Greater Spotted Jellyfloat is an enemy in Pikmin 2 that is a member of the Jellyfloat family. As it name implies, it resembles a large, pinkish version of the Lesser Spotted Jellyfloat. This species is considerably more rare, as it is alien to the region, but its population is quickly displacing that of its smaller cousin. Greater Spotted Jellyfloats have slightly more health and can be defeated in the same manner, but can suck up more Pikmin at once, and even Leaders if the player is not careful. It is possible to get out of the Jellyfloat quickly by rapidly rotating the Control Stick. Likewise, all undigested Pikmin and leaders are returned when it is defeated. Throwing Purple Pikmin will knock it to the ground, where it can be easily killed by swarming. Like their lesser cousins, they explode in a flurry of sparkling lights.

Olimar's Notes
Vivid pink coloration is the most notable characteristic of this floating life- form. This immigrant species is not native to the region, having appeared to have recently arrived on wind currents. The luminescent organ in its head attracts prey, which it then sucks up and consumes with its lower orifice. Unlike jellyfish, the jellyfloat's tentacles do not have nematocysts, so there is no harm in touching them.

Louie's Notes
Like a fine cheese, the aroma of this fluid floater can be oppressive, but its flavor must be experienced to believe. Also makes an unforgettable nondairy spread.

Pikmin:Redemption
These have the same changes as a Lesser Spotted Jellyfloat.

Pikmin: Global Breakdown
In Pikmin: Global Breakdown, these creatures are extinct. They all died out before the Lesser Spotted Jellyfloats. This was due to the weather changes and the other enemies overpowered these jellyfloats.

Pikmin:The After Years
When defeated, they may occasionally drop a random colored 10 pellet.
