The '''Greater Spotted Jellyfloat''' is a floating jellyfish-like creature ''[[Pikmin: Before the Impact (Violetblooded version)|Pikmin: Before the Impact]]'' that, much like their lesser variety, can suck up objects such as [[treasure]]s and [[fruit]]s, as well as [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]].

The '''Greater Spotted Jellyfloat''' is an enemy, that, as its name implies, resembles a large, pinkish version of the [[Lesser Spotted Jellyfloat]]. This species is considerably more rare, as it is alien to the region, but its population is quickly displacing that of its smaller cousin. Greater Spotted Jellyfloats have slightly more health and can be defeated in the same manner, but can suck up more [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] at once, and even [[leader]]s if the opportunity presents itself. It is possible for leaders to escape the Jellyfloat quickly by them struggling. All undigested Pikmin and leaders are returned when it is defeated. A single [[Purple Pikmin]] will knock it to the ground, where it can be easily killed by swarming. Like their lesser cousins, they explode in a flurry of sparkling lights when defeated, but unlike them, they do not emit a song-like sound.
The '''Greater Spotted Jellyfloat''' is a returning enemy in ''[[Pikmin: Decayed Leaf]]''. The giant jellyfish retains its iconic appearance. The creature will wander about in the air until [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] or [[leader]]s are seen. It will then float over to them and suck them up. After 30 seconds, inhaled Pikmin will be digested and killed. Captains that are sucked up will weigh down the Jellyfloat and promptly be spat out. The best way to take down this creature is to weigh it down with many Pikmin. If [[Ice Pikmin]] freeze it, it will fall down and shatter instantly. A hit from a single [[Purple Pikmin]] can also weigh it down instantly. [[Dart Pikmin]] can cause it to slowly lose health, while [[Steel Pikmin|Weighted Pikmin]] cannot be sucked up. When it dies, it harmlessly explodes, leaving nothing behind except a possible [[treasure]] or ingested Pikmin.

{{PGB|subcat=enemies}}
:''"Vivid pink coloration is the most notable characteristic of this floating life- form. This immigrant species is not native to the region, having appeared to have recently arrived on wind currents. The luminescent organ in its head attracts prey, which it then sucks up and consumes with its lower orifice. Unlike jellyfish, the jellyfloat's tentacles do not have nematocysts, so there is no harm in touching them."''

Notes

Olimar's observations

Oh man, just thinking about these things makes me sick. I can tell you firsthand that being ingested by one of these monsters is NOT a pleasant experience. The sounds they make and their color only makes it seem worse being in there.

Cookin' with Louie

Like a fine cheese, the aroma of this fluid floater can be oppressive, but its flavor must be experienced to be believed. Also makes an unforgettable nondairy spread!

The Greater Spotted Jellyfloat is a floating jellyfish-like creature Pikmin: Before the Impact that, much like their lesser variety, can suck up objects such as treasures and fruits, as well as Pikmin. Unlike their lesser counterpart, they can suck up any treasure or fruit, barring the Devious Devilberry, as that weighs 1,000 units, meaning that they are less easy to ground. Unlike their lesser counterpart, they can actually digest Pikmin.

Notes

Stevvy’s observations

Beware of the Greater Spotted Jellyfloat! This flying behemoth will suck up anything and everything it sees, so don’t let it suck you up! Not even the heaviest of treasures will leave this creature grounded, so try and get an advantage to beat them!

Natti’s cookbook

Much like its lesser variety, the Greater Spotted Jellyfloat’s insides are useful for a variety of things. Unlike its lesser variety, though, the insides vaguely taste like a cross between sweet fruit and meat. It requires a refined palette to enjoy, that’s for sure.
