In Pikmin X: Deep Freeze
In Pikmin X: Deep Freeze, the Dermal Jellyflake can be found in an out-of-the-way corner of the Woods of Occlusion. Its true body is small but is surrounded by a large gelatinous bubble, which is further covered in a plating of crystal armor. This strange enemy will immediately set out to crush Pikmin by rolling over them, occasionally stopping to circle around them and attack from another angle. It is slow enough for most Pikmin to escape from, but it can outrun leaf Pikmin. Fighting the Dermal Jellyflake requires a combination of different Pikmin types; Rock Pikmin are needed to break holes in its crystalline exterior, which will eventually expose the Jellyflake's watery membrane; from there onward it can not crush Pikmin but will instead try to engulf them with its bubble, where they will begin to drown unless whistled out of the creature. It also becomes faster without its armor covering. Blue Pikmin must be used to enter the bubble and attack the creature itself, and its only defense against the water-breathing Pikmin is to suddenly push them out of its membrane to get them out. Once defeated, the Dermal Jellyflake's bubble pops and its body falls to the ground to be salvaged for Pikmin seeds.
