Purple Power Parasite

The Purple Power Parasite latches on another enemy to encase them in a poison cloud. It turns out that the cloud contains both poison and oxygen, which is not good for Olimar or the pikmin! Any Emperor Bublax that gets possessed by a Purple Power Parasite behaves exactly like a Toxic Bulblax! That won't be cool at all!

Olimar's Notes
It is advisory to attack it before it latches on an enemy. It injects oxygen and poison. The Oxygen and poison escape the host's body, creating a dangerous cloud.

Louie's Notes
Inedible. Upon eating, contains traces of Oxygen and a chemical that poisons the pikmin.
