In Pikmin Evolution
Wisp Pikmin are a species of Pikmin appearing in Pikmin Evolution, where they are either the second or third Pikmin type encountered in the game alongside Kelp Pikmin. They are a very notable for not just their bizarre abilities, but also for sharing qualities with the Supernatura family, most notably the Waterwraith. Appearance wise they are the shortest type and lack visible arms, rather their bodies resemble a cloak or skirt, with their skin being a soft purple and having girlish cyan eyes, their flowers take a jet black color with an oddly soft glow. Their abilities are some of the most unique among the roster, as they share the Waterwraith's ability to become intangible, this allows them to go through walls as long as it's not too thick as well as go through the armor of enemies. They can also absorb energy, most notably electricity, giving them the unique ability to break down plasma gates. They are also almost weightless, which comes with some upsides and downsides, on the upsides they are the best Pikmin to attack sleeping enemies with as they are harder to notice than usual, and they won't activate falling rock and bomb traps due to not causing any ground shakes to dislodge them. On the other hand their weightlessness makes them unideal for carrying items as they weigh only half a Pikmin, meaning 2 Wisp Pikmin will have the same carry strength as 1 normal Pikmin. They also share the Waterwraith's main weakness of great pressure making them weaker as when they get scattered they enter a special tangible state where they become black and goo-like, making them take the longest to get back up and therefore easy to kill, and when in this state they become much more fragile as even being stepped on by the captain will cause them to pop into liquid and die. Getting past these flaws however, their unique traits makes them one of the most powerful Pikmin types to use if you master their strange quirks.
