Family Cocoberry

The Hanging Cocoberry is a species of berry-producing plants that grow on the side of rocks and cliffs, hence the name. Hanging Cocoberries have two separate subspecies, one bearing yellow berries and the other teal berries. They have a very thick and heavy shell to prevent consumption by whiskerpillars and other predators. As a tradeoff, cocoberries are unable to produce juice; instead, the seeds secrete a creamy substance that can be ground up to produce syrups.

Cocoberries must be weighed down by ten Pikmin, or a single Purple Pikmin, in order for them to break off the plant and be transported back to the ship. When a berry is harvested, the plant needs a full week before another berry grows in its place. Each berry produces a single dose of syrup, making them hard to come by if other methods of collecting syrups are not known.
