In Pikmin: Spark
The Spiny Scatterpod is a species of scatterweed appearing in Pikmin: Spark. They are a large, rotund cactus with multiple flowering pods of reds and yellows. Dwelling in deserts, they are weeds that drain the surrounding area of water, meaning Burgeoning Spiderworts can not grow there. To protect itself from those intruding on its territory, it rapidly scatters needles onto the ground that not only impale targets but also act as walls to prevent the target from escaping. When its target is trapped, it lobs an explosive seed pod onto them to finish them off. As a tip of the precaution, bring Rock Pikmin to destroy the crystal-like spines and Goo Pikmin to deal with the explosive pods.
