“	It seems the brutality of nature has frozen this Goolix over...	”	– The ship, upon discovering the Frozen Goolix

The Frozen Goolix is a species of cell puddle in Pikmin: Decayed Leaf. It resembles a Goolix, with a blue, watery body, a white nucleus split into four segments, and a dark blue nucleus. As its name suggests, it's completely frozen over, and now has a solid form instead of a liquid one. The Frozen Goolix is also a brighter blue compared to the typical Goolix.

The Frozen Goolix will remain completely still, as it cannot attack at all. However, only Ice Pikmin can damage it, as any other Pikmin type will be frozen solid when they try to engage the goolix. When broken, the creature will release its nuclei to be collected. However, if the Goolix ends up near any source of heat, like a fire starter, lava, or fire geyser, then they will melt back into a Goolix. Enemies with fiery properties can also melt the goolix with their heat. Because of this, the Frozen Goolix will usually be found around these sources of heat.

Defeating a Frozen Goolix can be easy or difficult. If melted, Blue Pikmin should be used to take down the creature, using the strategies against the Goolix. If the goolix is frozen, however, Ice Pikmin can easily destroy it, allowing for an easy source of seeds. Fire-resistant Pikmin can take out any fire sources heating the Frozen Goolix if no Blue Pikmin are available.

In Overlord mode, the Frozen Goolix melts much faster.

Notes

• Data file #1: The Frozen Goolix can melt if exposed to fire, and revert into a Goolix.

Olimar's notes

“As its name suggests, this is a Goolix, completely frozen over. Now one would think that the cell puddle was frozen over by the cold climates it faced, but that's been disproven, as it has been found in warmer climates. The truth is, the Goolix lowers its own body temperatures through the expulsion of liquid nitrogen from its nuclei, which allows for it to become as solid as ice. This allows for the Goolix to hibernate, and remain stationary and safe from predators. Due to their very low metabolism, they can remain in hibernation for months.”

Louie's notes

“Chop off chunks of this creature's ice to use for your recipes, drinks, or to help you store meat that you harvest from other creatures on this planet. Don't worry, the Frozen Goolix will regenerate it back... eventually.”

President’s notes

“I always needed a way to cool off in the Badlands! This goolix seems to do the trick. I just can't let it melt... it's melting! IT'S MELTING–”

Overlord’s thoughts

“I should probably tell that blonde–haired Hocotatian boy that the Goolix isn't actually water. But you know how he is. He'll eat anything as long as it has salt and he has a fork.”

Coolix
Scientific name	Mononuclei cryogelida / Mononuclei cryominor
Family	Goolix
Areas	Distant Tundra
Caves	Everlasting Engine
Carry weight	20 / 5
Max. carriers	40 / 10
Seed worth	30 (only produces Ice Pikmin seeds) / 10
Drops	Its core, Ice Onion (Distant Tundra only), Frozen Orb (Everlasting Engine only) / Its core
Health	25,000 + 2,500 regenerating ice layer (tripled in Everlasting Engine) / 5000 + 500 regenerating ice layer
Weaknesses	Rock Pikmin
Attacks	Crushes, drowns, stabs, and freezes Pikmin

The Coolix is a boss goolix appearing in Pikmin ARC. It is encountered in the Distant Tundra's overworld and in the cave Everlasting Engine. It has absorbed the Ice Pikmin's Onion, and developed a hard layer of spikes ice that can only be broken by Rock Pikmin. Rock Pikmin are overall recommended for the fight, but all three types available when it's first fought play a role in its defeat. The Coolix also has a smaller, much less harmless variant, the Dwarf Coolix. It behaves similarly, except it's smaller and doesn't have most of the larger version's attacks, only retaining the spikes and core slam.

While its ice remains, it will lurch around the arena and fire ice spikes. Its spikes can get stuck in the ground, acting as obstacles. If non-Rock Pikmin try to attack it, they will be hurt by its spikes. Periodically, it will pause to spew freezing gas. During this phase, only Rock Pikmin can damage it, so keep others out of its range.

After its ice is shattered, it becomes much faster, drowns Pikmin that try to attack its body, and loses its prior attacks for the following:

• Swings the Ice Onion around.
• Brings its core up and spews gel from it. This gel can drown Pikmin.
• Slams its core onto the ground, creating spikes. It is stunned after this attack.

After long enough, it will re-freeze itself. Yellows can attack it after it spews gel, and Rocks and Reds when its core gets stuck in the ground. In the Everlasting Engine boss rush, its health is massively increased, but Blue Pikmin can attack directly as they're immune to drowning.

Frozen Goolix
Scientific name	Celdol negcelcii
Family	Cell puddle
Carry weight	2
Max. carriers	3
Seed worth	100
Attacks	None

The Frozen Goolix is, as its name would suggest, a member of the cell puddle family, presumably a Goolix, that has frozen over. It is harmless and immobile, and although its nuclei are encased in solid ice they are worth Pikmin seeds, and Pokos. The Frozen Goolix is invincible unless Cyan Pikmin are used to pick away at and destroy it, and therefore grant access to its nuclei.
