Funghoul

The Funghoul is a rare and elusive sporovid appearing in Pikmin: Dual Worlds. After being seen, it climbs to a high vantage point, where it can not be seen, to stalk leaders and Pikmin from for several minutes. It eventually leaps down to the ground, landing almost silently. At this point, if it is seen by its prey it will charge at them. Dodging out of the way will cause it to trip and render itself vulnerable to attack. Whether it is seen or not, a Funghoul will grab Pikmin that are close enough to it, holding them captive and searing them in its strong grip. The creature will also be open to attack during this time. Landing even a single hit on a Funghoul will kill it. Upon defeat, a Funghoul will collapse into a pile of spores, leaving its cap, transforming into mycelium that soon forms into another Funghoul.
