Noxious Walker

The Noxious Walker is an unnerving insectoid enemy. It stands on its hind legs and resembles a cockroach, its face covered by a green gas mask-like growth to defend itself from its own toxic emissions. It wanders aimlessly in an area, leaving a trail of poison gas in its wake. When it sees leaders or Pikmin, it will walk directly towards them until it reaches them, where it will begin lifting and eating one Pikmin at a time. They are easily defeated because of their small health pool. White Pikmin are optimal for defeating them as they are immune to poison.

The gas emitted by Noxious Walkers is highly volatile and will violently ignite should fire or an explosion touch the gas. Should this happen, a swift chain reaction of explosions will occur, following gas trails left by the Noxious Walker and ultimately ending with its source, instantly and effectively killing the creature and disintegrating it. Anything in the path of destruction will take heavy damage if they do not die from it.
