Jellypad

Jellypads are creatures which pose as lily pads, for on top of them are what looks like them. Underwater, though, is their true form, a transparent jellyfish-like creature with six tentacles and small, light-blue spots. It only attacks when you throw Pikmin on top of it, and then it will throw your Pikmin to the closest plot of land or in the direction you threw the Pikmin at. Then, it will crawl out of the water, trying to sting your Pikmin. Therefore, Yellow Pikmin are supposed to be used to fight the Jellypads.
