The Crested Mockiwi is a more aggressive variant of a Mockiwi. It is mainly purple in color and has a crest of pink feathers on its forehead. Its face and beak are also pink. The Crested Mockiwi is similar to the standard Mockiwi, but has more health and is faster. It also has a unique attack, where it roars and charges towards leaders and Pikmin so that it may eat them. Throwing Pikmin at its head will immediately halt its charge.

Attacks | Eats Pikmin |
They make a return in Pikmin: Spark where they exclusively appear in Dens. They behave similarly to normal Mockiwis where they patrol a set area and attack anyone who passes where they walk before ignoring them after they leave their eyesight. However, the hair of the Crested Mockiwi prevents the captains from tossing Pikmin from the front meaning they have to attack the backside in order to damage it.
Ultra-Spicy Differences
Becomes faster and has a random chance to dash forward when patrolling.
Notes
Abel's medical journal
- “The thick, stiff, frontal plumage of this species has a feel of plastic. Works well as a patient's mattress boxsprings.”
Lyn's sale review
- “The wax in this creature's hair can be peeled off and be sold as a hair gel.”
PIX's creature scan

Much like other Mockiwis, the Crested Mockiwi is a species once evolved for flight but had lost its wings and evolved to fill in the niche for the grub-dog family. The Crested Mockiwi's behavior mirrors a typical Hairy Bulborb. If you throw Pikmin onto the back, they'll only bounce off, so you'll only be able to hurt it if you throw them at the crest on the Mockiwi's forehead. Rock Pikmin are also effective against it.
