Behavior

 * Pikmin 1: When idle, they will float around, sometimes moving to another spot slowly. When a pikmin approaches, it will flee quickly.
 * Pikmin 2: When idle, they will float around, sometimes moving to another spot slowly. When a pikmin approaches, it will flee quickly. If they fall on land, they will flop around until reentering water.
 * Pikmin:Redemption: If you leave wogpoles alive for five days in an area they will mature into either Wollywogs or Yellow Wollywogs.
 * Pikmin TCG: In the Pikmin 1 Card Set, they are a low health and low attack card, but have the ability to avoid the first attack each turn.

How to Kill

 * Pikmin and Pikmin 2: follow along its side and try to head it off as it swims away. Wogpoles can't attack, but they can cause flower Pikmin to lose their petals if it shakes them off. Since they only yield one Pikmin seed when retrieved, they're almost always more trouble than they're worth.
