The '''Ravenous Whiskerpillar''' is a larval [[Whiskerpillar family|whiskerpillar]] in {{p2}} that is not harmful to [[Pikmin]], but dangerous to [[Burgeoning Spiderwort]]s. They remain under the ground near the locations of Burgeoning Spiderworts, appearing only when the plants bloom, at which point they proceed to burrow out of the ground, climb the plants, and then eat the berries directly off of them. This act is detrimental to [[leader]]s, as berries are necessary to make [[spray]]s. When confronted on a Burgeoning Spiderwort, a Ravenous Whiskerpillar will drop off the plant and burrow into the ground, providing a chance to attack it. | The '''Ravenous Whiskerpillar''' is a larval [[Whiskerpillar family|whiskerpillar]] in {{p2}} that is not harmful to [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], but dangerous to [[Burgeoning Spiderwort]]s.

The Ravenous Whiskerpillar is a larval whiskerpillar in Pikmin 2 that is not harmful to Pikmin, but dangerous to Burgeoning Spiderworts. They remain under the ground near the locations of Burgeoning Spiderworts, appearing only when the plants bloom, at which point they proceed to burrow out of the ground, climb the plants, and then eat the berries directly off of them. This act is detrimental to leaders, as berries are necessary to make sprays. When confronted on a Burgeoning Spiderwort, a Ravenous Whiskerpillar will drop off the plant and burrow into the ground, providing a chance to attack it.

Ravenous Whiskerpillars in Pikmin 251 function the same way they do in Pikmin 2.
Notes
Olimar's observations
- “These little pests are even more troublesome this time than they were before, mainly due to the ship's converters not working properly, meaning we need 12 berries for a spray. Don't tell the ship I said this, but he was supposed to get them fixed the week before we left. For a robot, it's rather lazy...”
Cookin' with Louie
- “Cook these creatures slowly shortly after they eat some berries to get far more flavor for no extra work!”
In Pikmin Kart
This article or section presents information pertaining to Pikmin Kart, a fanon game created by Blueflower999. |
The Ravenous Whiskerpillar is an item in Pikmin Kart that appears in item boxes commonly. When used, a Ravenous Whiskerpillar appears on the screen of another player who has an item. It will partially block their view and will eat the item that they are holding, causing it to disappear. It will eat items that have not stopped spinning yet, and if no kart has an item, then it will have no effect.

Ravenous Whiskerpillars appear in their usual capacity throughout the Forest of Seeming region of Pikmin V. They have received one notable upgrade, in defiance of Olimar's previous notes, which is the ability to complete their metamorphosis into an adult. If a Ravenous Whiskerpillar consumes ten Burgeoning Spiderwort berries of any kind and lives to the end of the day, it will pupate into a Whiskercoon the following day. If the Whiskercoon is not destroyed that day, it will become a Ravenous Whiskerfly on the following day as well.
Notes
Brittany's notes
- “This strange creature has become dependent on the energy-packed berries of the Burgeoning Spiderwort to survive. However, it has no means of controlling the availability of these berries, so it has to rely on its admittedly incredible survivability to wait for an opportunity to eat. This explains its unusually long larval period.”
Olimar's notes
- “Even if one does not intend to collect a Spiderwort's berries, killing any infesting Whiskerpillars is a good idea. They possess no offense or defense and their removal prevents the growth, literally and metaphorically, of greater problems in the following days.”
Louie's notes
- “The flavor of this grub is highly dependent on its diet, which as the name suggests, can vary wildly. Entrepreneurs are starting farms that control their food sources for specific tastes. I'm so proud!”

The Ravenous Whiskerpillar returns, after many years of absence, in Pikmin: Spark. They retain their normal behaviors of eating Burgeoning Spiderwort berries, preventing captains from gaining sprays. The biggest addition they gain is an expanded family, with three new species, the Cleric Whiskerpillar, Thieving Whiskerpillar, and Patterned Whiskerpillar, as well as an adult form called the Stringfly.
Notes
Abel's medical journal
- “A nuisance, they constantly eat our medical supplies and their whiskers possibly contain germs. No practical medical use is found.”
Lyn's sale review
- “The whiskers of these creatures make a strong but comfortable hairbrush that can untangle any knots.”
PIX's creature scan
- “First sighting of these creatures in over a decade. Uses whiskers to filter dirt and soot from the roots they feed on. Potentially hazardous ecological pest. Recently discovered adult form found.”
- Habitat: varies
- Niche: scavenger
- Maturity age: 3-6 weeks
- Average lifespan: 1-2 years
- Breeding season: Only Stringflies can reproduce

Ravenous Whiskerpillars in Pikmin: The Winds of Light appear in Summoning Garden and Spring of Serenity, both times near the Burgeoning Spiderworts in those locations.
Notes
Olimar's notes
- “Strange enough, it seems that these whiskerpillars have a certain set of reflexes that make them twitch, even when they are dead. Perhaps they still have a ravenous appetite for berries, even when dead?”
