In Pikmin: Decayed Leaf
The Red-Eye Flapper is a small, strange enemy found in Pikmin: Decayed Leaf. The creature has a small blue body with 2 blue wings, and a large, red, glowing eye on the front for sight. The Red-Eye Flapper will fly around in the air, usually in a circle and in groups of two to three. If it sees Pikmin, it will fire small laser beams from its eye that knock them back, potentially killing them. In this regard, the laser beams are comparable to a Gatling Groink's mortars. If struck by a thrown Yellow Pikmin or swarmed by Winged Pikmin, it will fall to the ground. However, the Red-Eye Flapper will usually fly downwards to shoot lasers, leaving an opening for other Pikmin to attack. Like with most of the eyebulb family, a thrown Dart Pikmin can instantly kill an eyebulb, while Cactus Pikmin do extreme damage. Iguana Pikmin can also attack the creature from afar.
