Sporcula

The Sporcula is an enemy introduced in Pikmin X: Deep Freeze. It resembles its distant relative, the Puffstool, but is purple in color and has a mouth with two fangs. It scuttles from place to place on its two long legs, and when it sees the player's Pikmin, it will hop after them. Unlike the Puffstool, which uses spores to attack, the Sporcula can eat the player's Pikmin to turn them into Mushroom Pikmin. Gobbling up ten Pikmin with each bite, some of the Pikmin will be eaten, but most will be regurgitated as angry Mushroom Pikmin.
