Jellyper family

The jellyper family consists of grasshopper- and locust-like creatures.

Galvanic Crystasinge


The Galvanic Crystasinge is an insect-like boss that has a variety of physical and elemental attacks at its disposal. It defends itself from attackers mainly by spewing fire at them from its mouth, but it can also temporarily electrify itself when overwhelmed. To be able to damage the Galvanic Crystasinge, Rock Pikmin must first be thrown at its shell until it shatters and reveals its soft, vulnerable body. Yellow Pikmin are recommended to attack its vulnerable body with due to it being able to electrify itself. The boss is nimble and can quickly turn to incinerate any Pikmin or leaders it may see. it may choose to become airborne to fly around and regenerate health, not unlike a common Shearwig; throwing enough Pikmin onto it while it is airborne will force it onto the ground and become stunned for a short time, struggling under the weight of the Pikmin latched onto it before shaking them off.

Grabbit


The Grabbit is a green creature, with big red eyes, two small wings and four legs. This creature spends its time jumping, but can kill Pikmin if it lands on one of them. Aside from that, this creature is inoffensive.

Jabbit


The Jabbit is a small grasshopper-like creature, with two yellow octagonal eyes, two working wings, and four two-toed legs, with one toe on each side. They jump on Pikmin to plant them, and fly above them to look at their flowers if undisturbed. When a leader plucks any Pikmin in its area, it will jump on them and knocks them down. They are fully harmless.

Strumbug


The Strumbug is one of the larger jellypers, and they are actually capable of killing Pikmin at will unlike the Grabbit or Jabbit. However, they can be ignored since they only attack if provoked. They can snipe Pikmin thrown at them, so throwing Rock Pikmin at them is the safest option.
