Crystal Wollywog

The Crystal Wollywog is an unused amphituber found in the files of. It strongly resembles the Wollywog, although green-brown in color with a green back and a reddish-purple underbelly, orange feet with pink stripes on its toes, and yellow eyes with black, slitted pupils, the eyes of which having a white ring around them. On the underside of its body appears to be a crystal object, although where it would have been attached to the Crystal Wollywog's body is uncertain. It apparently would have behaved like the Yellow Wollywog, jumping into the air to crush Pikmin and leaders underneath it, complete with the creature inflating its throat to momentarily float in the air before landing. The crystal attached to its body would have either made Rock Pikmin necessary to defeat it or made it easier to defeat using Rock Pikmin.

In Pikmin: Decayed Leaf
The Crystal Wollywog is a new enemy appearing in Pikmin: Decayed Leaf. The resembles a Wollywog physically, but there are many differences to the creature. It now has a crystal, rigid skin that takes on a brown color. Along with whitish, yellow eyes and purple spots all over the frog. Its feet are of a yellow color, and attached to the bottom of the Wollywog is a large, round crystal ball.

The Crystal Wollyhop will usually sit around idle, occasionally croaking or scratching its mouth. If it sees Pikmin, it will slowly turn to face them. If they get too close, the Crystal Wollywog will strike. They will leap into the air, floating into the air for a few seconds. It will then land onto the group; crushing non-Rock Pikmin or Weighted Pikmin caught in the attack. If the player attempts to move, the Crystal Wollywog will kick its crystal ball onto the group; crushing up to five Pikmin. It will then hop over to the ball and put it back under its stomach. You can break it with Rock Pikmin due to it being made out of crystal. The only way to kill the Crystal Wollywog is by throwing Rock Pikmin or Dart Pikmin at the enemy. It does not have a health bar; taking twenty hits to kill. The more it’s hit, the more it’s cracked; before it eventually shatters.

In Pikmin Eco
The Crystal Wollywog is an amphituber that appears in Pikmin Eco as a replacement for the Wollywog. Unlike its unused incarnation from, the Crystal Wollywog in Pikmin Eco has a stomach protected by a layer of crystal instead of a rocky mass. They behave similarly to any other wollywog; they remain stationary until leaders or Pikmin venture within range. Once they do, the creature will leap up into the air and slam down on top of either a leader or their Pikmin, crushing any underneath. Compared to the Yellow Wollywog, the Crystal Wollywog has a longer range, and it can cause more damage due to its crystal-coated stomach.

In Pikmin: Elemental Speciation
The Crystalbelly Wollywog is a type of wollywog that has a more purplish-brown color scheme and a crystal that extends out of its belly when it jumps. When it lands, it makes a shockwave of crystals that can trap Pikmin between them. If no Pikmin are affected, the crystal will protrude from its back. Breaking the crystal at such a time prevents the creature from using its crystal attack and makes it vulnerable to attack.

In Pikmin: The Return of the Puffmin
The Gemniwog is an amphituber in Pikmin: The Return of the Puffmin that has a stomach protected by a spiky crystal shell. It behaves like most other amphitubers, sitting still when idle and crushing leaders and Pikmin that get too close. When the Gemniwog lands, however, the crystals on its stomach may fragment, killing Pikmin that are hit by the shrapnel. As the rest of its body is not protected, any type of Pikmin can be used to attack it.
