The Greater Spotted Jellyfish is bioluminescent and attracts prey using its glowing antennae. They are always found completely submerged in water, specifically in its deepest, darkest reaches, and can move swiftly in it. Should it be introduced to light, a Greater Spotted Jellyfish will burst into unrecognizable pieces. Greater Spotted Jellyfish can inhale up to seventy Pikmin before they become full and are able to spray a jet of bubbles that kill all Pikmin types upon contact, including Blue Pikmin and Aqua Pikmin.
