In Pikmin Evolution
The Cryomander is a species of amphibiland appearing in Pikmin Evolution. It is a adult member of its species having a body size that is between the smaller Gildemandwee and much larger Gildemander. In terms of appearance it is a soft gray amphibiland with glowing blue eyes and clawed toes. It's main difference from the body style of the Gildemander is that instead of an antennae is has what appears to be a blowhole, from this blowhole is snow and ice that is produced on the special glands on its back. Additionally there is usually an alpha Cryomander in the herd, who has a purple crest on its head. As the name suggests the Cryomander has powers over the cold and from the three pores on its backside is a freezing agent that gives the Cryomander a frozen solid hide covered in snow. This snow gives the Cryomander the ability to cool itself under the harsh sun from which makes up the desert home it lives in. This icy protection has the side effect of making the surrounding ground cold and slippery, making it hard to navigate. The alpha also has the unique ability to lob balls of icy blue stone from its mouth, crushing anyone underneath the landing site of the ice rock. To remove the ice you need to defeat the entire herd of Cryomanders, which rang in numbers from 4-7, and killing the alpha first will make the Cryomanders slower and less organized so its best to kill the alpha first. The Cryomander has an intense rivalry with the Magmander, and the two often have turf wars over territory, often to the death. To defeat the Cryomander you need to attack the three pores on its backside, and since its covered in snow only Alloy Pikmin can attack it. However the slow lumbering Alloy Pikmin are at risk of the Cryomander's giant tongue, which is capable of eating up to 100 Pikmin without restraint. You have many viable strategies to defeating the Cryomander, you can of course use Alloy Pikmin. However you can also set it on fire with either a flaming hot red or explosive orange syrup. Using these will melt all the ice off the creature's back, allowing all Pikmin types to attack it. However the blowhole can also be clogged when it does its licking attack by tossing an Alloy Pikmin into it, this cause the snow on the creatures back to be blasted away and make the creature being unable to make more snow, allowing all Pikmin types to attack the creature. You could also lure a herd of Magmanders to a herd of Cryomanders to kill two birds with one stone, however the Cryomanders are just as likely to triumph over the Magmanders so its not a garanteed victory. A very cool but crafty foe, and whose greatest enemy may just be its elemental counterpart.
