Whip Maloov

The Whip Maloov is an enemy introduced in Pikmin X: Deep Freeze. It is a small gray slime that oozes across the ground after prey such as Pikmin, snatching one at a time with its long cranial tentacle, and eating them. Whip Maloovs are fairly easy enemies to defeat on their own, but in groups, they can be deadly. Black Pikmin are recommended for battles with these, as they cannot be ensnared by the sticky tentacle.
