The Luminous Slurker is a bioluminescent species of umbloda. It belongs to a branch of the umbloda family known as the armed umblodas. This species will ignore Pikmin until Pikmin are thrown onto it, causing it to light itself up for a moment, dropping the Pikmin off its body, causing them and other nearby Pikmin to enter a state of panic. If provoked for longer, it will begin pulling its arms inside its cap and will use its feathers to propel itself downward. Any Pikmin caught under the slurker get sucked into the mouth on the bottom of its body and are absorbed into its head, where their nutrients are extracted, and their bodies are pulverised and ejected from its top. It should be dealt with using the panic-resistant Green Pikmin, who are also capable of sticking onto it longer because of their spiked armor. When killed, its feathers shrivel and disintegrate, and it falls onto the ground. It is also capable of swallowing enemies, and collectible items, which will be ejected from its mouth upon death.
