In Pikmin 2... Again?
Danificritter is an enemy only seen in the Timed Mode and cave Explore Time in Pikmin 2... Again?. It seems to be a red spider-like creature resembling something out of an electronic device. Danificritters can eat Pikmin. While a Danificritter is present, the timer runs down faster, and accompanying the timer is a pixelated icon of the creature. The Danificritter doesn't leave a corpse upon defeat, as it simply disintegrates into loose pixels that disappear soon after.
