Mirror Progg

File:Placeholder

The Mirror Progg is the third Super Progg in Pikmin 3: The Progg Wars.

Attacks

It will shoot laser waves on the floor at you and/or the Pikmin, which will count as electrical damage, so it shouldn't be too much of a problem if you have Yellow Pikmin and an upgraded suit for your captain. If the waves miss, they'll rebound against the mirrors on the arena walls for a bit before fading into thin air. At half health, it'll start shooting three waves at once which spread out in a scatter fashion, as well as a charge attack which bowls your Pikmin around like bowling pins, similar to one of Bowser's attacks from Super Mario 64. This Progg does not have a poison trail.

Strategy

Unless you're using Yellow Pikmin, take only a small fraction of Pikmin to fight the Progg.

Get out of the way when it shoots a wave, and it should hit the Progg when it bounces back. When hit, its mirror armor will crack off and it will start fleeing, giving you a chance to attack it. After a while, it will shake the Pikmin off and regrow its mirror armor. Repeat this strategy until its health turns yellow.

At this point, the Progg will roar, causing most of the mirror walls to crack. The Progg will start to give off sparks as well. Pressing A on the handle of one of the mirrors will switch the camera to a first person view, and you can move the mirror around left and right. Do this to reflect the laser waves at the Mirror Progg, cracking its armor and letting you attack. Repeat this strategy until it's dead.
