The Painted Whiskerpillar is a member of the whiskerpillar family found in the files of Pikmin 3. It is a small, but decently-sized, caterpillar-like creature that, unless its texture mapping is incorrect, is mostly purple in color besides its orange underbelly, the orange stripe on its back, its green eyes, black nose, and bent, green and brown antennae.
It exhibits almost the exact same behaviors as the Kakureimo, although with a single, minor difference, which will later be mentioned. It emerges from the ground, then lurching about to explore a small portion of the land surrounding its burrowing spot. It will continue doing this until Pikmin or leaders enter its sight, causing it to become alarmed, dash quickly to its initial location, and then burrow into the ground to hide, which completely restores its health. While Pikmin and leaders are nearby, given unknown circumstances, it may either stay underground completely or periodically peek out from its burrowing spot to survey the surrounding area. After being alone for some time, a Painted Whiskerpillar will reemerge from the ground and continue lurching about. A Painted Whiskerpillar will rush to and feed on a bait berry in its vicinity, temporarily distracting it from anything around it, causing it to momentarily ignore Pikmin and leaders until it notices them again or they harm it, in which case it will abandon its berry and rush back to its hiding spot. Unlike the Kakureimo, a Painted Whiskerpillar will continue eating bait berries, even after having consumed one. A Painted Whiskerpillar has a chance of yielding an entire blob of nectar upon death.
