Plishroom

The Plishroom is a small sporovid that appears in Pikmin E. Unlike most other sporovids, the Plishroom has visible eyes. It lacks the ability to convert Pikmin into Mushroom Pikmin, and instead charges into Pikmin and leaders, tackling them and knocking them over. The fastest way to defeat a Plishroom is to charge Pikmin onto it while it is getting up from tackling. They also pose a huge disadvantage to using Eli as a leader, as attempting to approach one as him causes him to flee back towards the ship, and remain there for 1-2 minutes. Even if you are controlling him, you will be booted to the closest leader and the AI will take over, causing him to panic and run away.
