Lesser Spotted Jellyfloat

The Lesser Spotted Jellyfloat is an enemy in Pikmin 2. They resemble large, blue, floating jellyfish with yellow spots that float through the air. They attack the Pikmin by inhaling them and trapping them inside. The Pikmin will then be digested one by one over considerably long periods of time. This creature is related to the Greater Spotted Jellyfloat.

Olimar's Notes
This native jellyfloat is indigenous to the region. Unfortunately, it is currently endangered, as its habitat is being overwhelmed by immigrant species.

Louie's Notes
Similar in taste and texture to gelatin, this jiggling mass of jelly can be sculpted into all kinds of creative shapes. As a bonus, it also doubles as a professional-grade hair gel. It's the perfect cool summer treat!

Pikmin
It is vulnerable on all parts of its body, and has moderately low health. Purple Pikmin will automatically make this creature fall due to their weight, they are also good for defeating it, as stunning it will prevent it from getting back into air. When defeated, all undigested Pikmin will be recovered.

Captains
The only way to kill a Jellyfloat without Pikmin is to allow a nearby Bumbling Snitchbug to pick you up. If it floats over or very close to the Jellyfloat, you can attack the creature in midair while the Bumbling Snitchbug is holding you.

Pikmin:Redemption
If these are left alive above ground for too long they will dry-up and not yield what they had eaten. They are less harmless in PR than in Pikmin 2.

Pikmin: Global Breakdown
In Pikmin: Global Breakdown, these creatures are extinct with the greater cousins. This is due to the rapid climate change and that they were diminishing in numbers anyways. ==Pikmin:The After Years

When defeated, these creatures will sometimes drop a random colored 5-pellet.
