The '''Acidwraith''' may be the ectoplasmic incarnation of a kind of psychic phenomenon. Its appearance is generally humanoid in shape, with the suggestion of a head, body, arms and legs, but without distinct characteristics, and with an acidic, translucent body. The Acidwraith's name is a combination of acid, given its acidic appearance, and wraith, which means ghost or phantom.

When encountered, the beast falls from the sky and moves around on its stone 'rollers'. It will chase Olimar and any Pikmin nearby, with greater focus on crushing the active Captain. It is invincible to any Pikmin assault, even if [[ultra-bitter spray|petrified]], except that of [[Purple Pikmin]]. When a Purple lands on or near the Waterwraith in a fashion that would stun any other beast, it turns a deep shade of purple not dissimilar to that of the Pikmin that cause this state to come about. This will instantly kill the purple pikmin though. Thankfully, a new Candypop Bud species, the [[Dual Bud]] will combine two Pikmin together for a limited time. Once the time expires, it wil split back into two Pikmin. You need to combine a [[Purple Pikmin]] and a [[Green Pikmin]] to kill this beast.  Like this, it is vulnerable to [[Green Pikmin]] attacks (it will asphyxate any other pikmin that attempt to attack it). When the Wraith's health has been fully depleted, the rollers crumble and the Waterwraith will scoot all around the cave, dissolving any Pikmin it walks through. Attack with more purple-greens and then you can easily attack it with green Pikmin. When defeated, it will vanish into nothing, and you will be troubled no more.

Strangely, petrifying the Acidwraith makes it less vulnerable to Purple Pikmin, in which case the Pikmin must be thrown in a perfect arch for enough impact to make the creature susceptible to attack. In other words, Purples make a certain "squashing" sound when they hit an enemy or a plant; when this sound is performed, a creature may also be stunned. These effects can only occur when the Purples have a straight fall downward after their throw (the distance in which they fall vertically is irrelevant, as long as it exists). Finally, when all these circumstances are achieved, the Acidwraith may gain damage; this will not happen when Purples are thrown on it without the drop.
The '''Acidwraith''' appears only once in ''[[Pikmin: Invasion of the Giants]]'', on the final level of the [[Acidic Complex]]. It is noticeably weaker than the [[Waterwraith]], as [[Green Pikmin (acid-resistant)|Green Pikmin]] can damage it; this is likely due to how any other [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] will be instantly killed when touching its [[acid]] body, and how other Pikmin colors can not be brought into the cave. When it is knocked off its [[Wraith roller|roller]]s, it runs around and produces pools of acid.

===Notes===
When the rollers fall, petrify its roller. When the Acidwraith itself lands, it too will be encased in stone, but the roller will revert to its normal state before the creature itself. Petrify it again, and the Wraith is normal, but not the rollers; the Wraith will have problems lifting them. Its audio will get messed up, as it cries with each attempt to pick up the front roller. The beast won't turn purple when Purple Pikmin are thrown at it. This is because it needs to lift its rollers first.

The Acidwraith appears only once in Pikmin: Invasion of the Giants, on the final level of the Acidic Complex. It is noticeably weaker than the Waterwraith, as Green Pikmin can damage it; this is likely due to how any other Pikmin will be instantly killed when touching its acid body, and how other Pikmin colors can not be brought into the cave. When it is knocked off its rollers, it runs around and produces pools of acid.

Notes

Olimar's notes

A most curious phenomenon of nature. It has no life, and yet responds to many actions in ways that exhibit conscious thought. Viewers are instantly overcome with fear at the sight of it... A most curious phenomenon...

Louie's notes

Absolutely nothing is left when this monster is defeated. If you were to take a chunk while it was still alive, you still wouldn't get anything but stone rollers or acid.

The President's notes

Stow all but Green Pikmin away somewhere safe. The best technique is to follow behind with flowered Green Pikmin and repeatedly toss Pikmin onto it. When it is off the rollers, pursue and freeze it with ultra-bitter spray, then attack. Use the ultra-bitter spray when it is rolling and spray your Pikmin with ultra-spicy spray for best results.
