Behavior
- Most Games
- It is commanded by blue-eyed Z-bots in large groups of five-to-fifteen. They attack just like Mushroom Pikmin and will latch on to any captains that they catch up with. When their leader is destroyed, all existing Z-min will scatter around for a few seconds before deactivating and exploding.
Strategy to defeat
- Most Games
- As with Mushroom Pikmin, it is too risky to fight them with Pikmin, so punch it a couple times to make it explode. in pikmin ultimate adventure, before the z-min deactivate, whistling them will cause them to follow the captain and can be used like regular pikmin!
