Floaterbie family

The Floaterbie family are butterfly-like creatures closely related to Flitterbies and Flutterbies. Unlike the two other groups, this family is more commonly hostile and dangerous.

Electric Spectralid


Electric Spectralids are creatures that appear in. While it looks like a regular Spectralids, this creature produces light with its body, and will dive bomb into Olimar if it spots him. The Electric Spectralid does not pose a threat to Pikmin, as it is only found in a level with Yellow Pikmin exclusively.

Needle Spectralid


The Needle Spectralid is a closer relative to the Electric Spectralid. They have black skin with a white spot on their stomachs, and highly detailed eye markings along their wings; a set of eyes on the upper, and lower wing, with yellow markings along the upper wings. They will aim and fly down at them, attempting to stab their prey and carry them around for a bit before swallowing them.
