Mitite

Mitites are small, pink creatures with white shells and six legs. They can not directly harm Pikmin but do cause any in their vicinity to run in panic, which can inadvertently lead them to danger, such as a hazard. When stumbled upon, they appear in a swarm and merely need to be alive in order for nearby Pikmin to panic. The enemies start to scuttle around aimlessly, and any that are not killed will eventually burrow underground.

In Pikmin: Connection of the Worlds
In Pikmin: Connection of the Worlds, Mitites may be found in a colony. The entrance to the colony looks like a lump on the ground, and Brown Pikmin can dig at these spots to reveal the colony. It is rare but possible to find tiny eggs, which are in reality Mitite eggs, in place of ordinary eggs, and interacting with them will cause a swarm of Mitites to come up from the ground around it.

In Pikmin: Redemption
In Pikmin: Redemption, Mitites will break out of a egg they are contained within when they sense nearby Pikmin and leaders.

In Pikmin: Ultimate Doom
The Mitite appears in Pikmin: Ultimate Doom, and is encountered in Dark Moon and Kryptonite Crater.

In Pikspore, Mitites are just as annoying as they were in. Progglings serve a similar purpose to them.
