Spotty Goblax

Enemy Bio
The Spotty Goblax large member of the grub-dog family, being roughly the size of the average Bulborb, but longer. Like it's much larger relative, the Emperor Bulblax, the Spotty Goblax lies buried underground until a leader and/or their Pikmin come near. When a target approaches, the Spotty Goblax will lunge out of its spot in the ground with its mouth agape, trying to scoop up a group of Pikmin. If its lunge attack is successful, it will instantly burrow back into the ground where it lands. If its attack fails, it will wander around on the surface, attacking any Pikmin or leader that are nearby, however, on the surface its movement is greatly slowed. Eventually after wandering on the surface for long enough, the Spotty Goblax will find a location to burrow into the ground again.

Olimar's Notes
This average-sized member of the grub-dog family uses ambush to catch its prey. During the rainy season, they typically come together in large colonies near the edge of the water.

Louie's Notes
Slice the beast up and mix it with chopped onion and roasted peanuts, and steam it. Roll the mixture up in rice paper along with your choice of vegetables. Serve with a sour and spicy sauce. The delectably fatty fish and the crisp vegetables will come together to make the dish so nice, that you'll forget about your diet!

Battle Strategy
Approach the eye-stalks with a lone captain, and lure it into lunging out of the ground. Then come up to it from behind and charge it with a large group of any type of Pikmin. (Attacking from behind in necessary in a zero-death run, as the Spotty Goblax can eat Pikmin at extremely fast pace, despite its slow movement speed on land.)
