The Medusal Slurker is a generally passive umbloda that floats gently above the ground, occasionally moving about. However, when a leader or Pikmin approach, the slurker will hover over their current position and drop its uvula-like appendage onto the ground, which expands to capture anything caught in its mucus-like structure. It will then suck them back into its transparent body and keep them for the rest of the day until defeated, thereby freeing captured Pikmin. It can only keep a maximum of fifteen Pikmin in its body, and if it already has that amount it will just fly around without attempting to use its appendage again. It does not eat Pikmin, and can not be weighed down by any thrown onto it. It will also occasionally shuffle about in its flight to indicate its pouch is full. Medusal Slurkers can be found with a variety of items in their pouches, including previously-trapped Pikmin and leaders, bomb rocks, fruits, and more. Although the swallowed Pikmin will not die directly from the enemy, they will be counted as sunset fatalities if the day ends before they are rescued.
