Scatterstool

The Scatterstool is a species of small sporovid that must be crushed to be killed, and releases spores upon dying.

In Pikmin: The Dawn of Petals
Scatterstools are sporovids initially found partially buried in the ground. If Pikmin come close to one, it jumps out of the ground and attempts to flee. It is easily killed, as a direct hit on its cap causes it to burst instantly, leaving the body lying on the ground while several small spores launch out. The spores eventually grow into smaller copies of the creature itself but can be destroyed by hazards or Pikmin. If one escapes into water, it proceeds to swim on its liquid's surface, and since it is not touching a solid surface, a hit from a Pikmin does nothing to it, only knocking it away. In this case, it should be knocked towards the land repeatedly, where it can be crushed.
