The '''Rainbow Wollywog''' is a rare species of [[Amphituber family|amphituber]] that has evolved to protect itself in a number of ways. Its coloration is a mix of reds, yellows, greens, and blues, with purple and orange stripes and a black stomach. It has the capability to crush [[Pikmin]], but it prefers instead to do a random attack, a few of which may be beneficial. When its attack is finished, a Rainbow Wollywog will then either jump off-screen or tunnel underground. Its corpse is worth a lot of seeds if brought to an [[Onion]], but killing this creature is not an easy task, as when it jumps away, it'll never be seen for the rest of the day. Its attacks, listed alphabetically according to the attack's focus, are as follows:
The '''Opalescent Wollywog''' is a rare species of [[Amphituber family|amphituber]]. The colorful stripes and spots along its back give it its name, and it is coated in a clear liquid with an iridescent sheen. This enemy will leap into the air when it sees a [[leader]] or a [[Pikmin]], but unlike other amphitubers, it will jump in a semi-random direction away from them instead, making it less predictable than its relatives.
*[[Acid]]: spits green balls of acid at Pikmin.
 
*[[Adhesive]]: spits sticky black blobs at Pikmin, which causes leaders and Pikmin to be slowed considerably.
In addition to crushing Pikmin caught underneath it when it lands, the Opalescent Wollywog will scatter the iridescent liquid in a wide radius around itself. Pikmin that come in contact with this liquid will begin to panic, though they will also elevate to their bud or flower state. A degree of risk versus reward is inherent when fighting Opalescent Wollywogs, as their irregular movement and crushing attack make it difficult to balance the potential benefits that can be obtained.
*[[Electricity]]: glows bright blue and causes the weather to become [[rain]]y. A shadow will appear in the creature's spot, indicating where a bolt of lightning will strike.
*[[Bomb rock|Explosion]]: creates an explosive discharge that has the power of five bomb rocks. Any Pikmin in the range of this attack will be launched away and deflowered.
*[[Fire]]: generates a column of fire in its place. This column lasts for a short time. Fireballs are shot randomly out of it, which burn Pikmin they touch.
*[[Ice]]: releases a blast of cold air in all directions around it. It instantly freezes leaders and Pikmin that touch it.
*[[Nectar]]: rapidly spins around while spewing nectar. Any Pikmin hit by this attack will become buried but flowered.
*[[Panic]]: spins around while spewing a strange, rainbow-colored liquid. Pikmin hit by this liquid will panic and become flowered.
*[[Poison]]: spins around while a line of poison is emitted from its behind.
*[[Water]]: spits balls of water at Pikmin.

The Opalescent Wollywog is a rare species of amphituber. The colorful stripes and spots along its back give it its name, and it is coated in a clear liquid with an iridescent sheen. This enemy will leap into the air when it sees a leader or a Pikmin, but unlike other amphitubers, it will jump in a semi-random direction away from them instead, making it less predictable than its relatives.

In addition to crushing Pikmin caught underneath it when it lands, the Opalescent Wollywog will scatter the iridescent liquid in a wide radius around itself. Pikmin that come in contact with this liquid will begin to panic, though they will also elevate to their bud or flower state. A degree of risk versus reward is inherent when fighting Opalescent Wollywogs, as their irregular movement and crushing attack make it difficult to balance the potential benefits that can be obtained.
