Ranged Groink

The Ranged Groink is an enemy that appears in Pikmin X: Deep Freeze. It is smaller than the Gatling Groink and is blue in color. Unlike its relative which shoots Pikmin that are close, the Ranged Groink has a much greater range of attack and can gun down Pikmin at long distances. First, it aims with a red laser similar to the Man-at-legs, then it fires multiple quick projectiles at its target. Captains and Pikmin can easily avoid the attack by taking cover behind large objects. It has less health than a Gatling Groink and is slower, but be wary, as this is still a very dangerous enemy!
