In Pikmin: The Dawn of Petals
The Hypnotic Burrow-nit appears in Pikmin: The Dawn of Petals as a relative of the Cloaking Burrow-nit. It has magenta spirals on its purple shell, in contrast to red eyespots on a blue shell, and has blank white eyes. It can flare its eyes to hypnotize any Pikmin in front of and facing it, causing their eyes to show spinning spirals of the same color as those on the creature's shell. Whenever a captain is in range, it uses Pikmin it hypnotized to attack them and their Pikmin. If it loses too much health, it may sacrifice a few hypnotized Pikmin, or normal Pikmin in its range, to heal itself. Any Pikmin entranced by the Hypnotic Burrow-nit return to normal upon its death.
