Kakureimos are new enemies found in Pikmin: Infection in Progress. They mainly reside partway underground in soft, moist earth. Kakureimos can be identified as purple bumps with mustard-yellow stripes buried halfway into the damp earth. Once confronted, a Kakureimo swarm will unearth and begin their pathetic assault. The President cannot assist in carrying Kakureimo corpses because of their light weight.
