Sparking Eltak

The Sparking Eltak is an enemy introduced in Pikmin X: Deep Freeze. A yellow/black creature covered in electrified spines, the Sparking Eltak is very aggressive, blinding rushing at whatever it sees. As it can't turn itself around while charging, it may seem easy to avoid, but it is very fast, and also leaves behind a trail of electricity. The electrified spines prevent Yellow Pikmin from grabbing on and attacking and kill any other type, so the player must wait until the Eltak hits a wall and becomes stunned momentarily, retracting the spines and opening the opportunity for any Pikmin type to attack.
