In Pikmin: Dual Worlds
The Clay Goolix is a rather rare subspecies of cell puddle in Pikmin: Dual Worlds that has a much larger body it uses to absorb clay into its own mass. It can extend up to two large pseudopodia with which to crush prey, although Pikmin that are resistant to blunt force will begin to drown because of how moist its body is. Attacking its body is futile, as doing so inflicts no harm to the creature, although its appendages can be targeted to cause them to crumble, rendering them able to only drown Pikmin. Afterward, Pikmin that attack its main body slowly pick away at it, eventually reducing its body to nothing more than a bare puddle not unlike an ordinary Goolix. Its nuclei are more resistant to harm than those of its watery counterpart and it can shake off Pikmin more easily when they are exposed. When left unharmed for long enough, the Clay Goolix will begin to absorb its lost clay to slowly repair its physical structure, starting with its body and then its limbs. After reaching half-health, the creature forms two additional pseudopodia, totaling four, at the cost of its reach and uses them to juggle its nuclei around at random, making attacking them difficult. Which limb a nucleus goes to can be seen by a slight bump that moves into or out of an involved appendage, and by attacking the one a nucleus is in, it can be made vulnerable to attack.
