The '''Rootroosting Slapvipe''' is the first boss (and later recurring miniboss) encountered in [[Pikmin: Shipwrecked Stargazers]], and is fought at the bottom of [[The Fang Chute]]. This large serpentine creature is orange in color, with a scaly hide, short limbs, a blue forked tongue, beige eyes with slit pupils, and even a purple, inflatable sac on it's head. The snake slithers around the arena before suddenly charging at Pikmin with it's mouth open. The creature will consume Pikmin during it's rush and knock away leaders, but it's fangs keep it stuck in a wall to give you time to attack it.

The sac inflates when it spits venom from it's fangs, an attack used in battles after [[White Pikmin]] are discovered. The creature also slaps Pikmin away with it's whip-like tail.

The Rootroosting Slapvipe is the first boss, and later recurring miniboss, encountered in Pikmin: Shipwrecked Stargazers, first fought at the bottom of the Fang Chute. This large serpentine creature is primarily orange in color, with a scaly hide, short limbs, a blue, forked tongue, beige eyes with slit pupils, and a translucent, purple, inflatable sac on its head. The snake slithers around its arena before suddenly charging at Pikmin and leaders, with its mouth open. The creature will consume Pikmin during its rush and knock away leaders, but its fangs keep it stuck in a wall it impacts, temporarily opening it to attack.

The creature's back is protected by cream-colored scales, and as such, is impervious to attack. Its orange skin is best attacked when its fangs are stuck. Deflating the Rootroosting Slapvipe's purple sac deals moderate damage, although the creature will die if enough damage is done to it upon inflation. The sac inflates when it spits venom from its fangs, an attack used in battles after White Pikmin are discovered. The creature slaps away nearby Pikmin and leaders using its whip-like tail.
