Among the smallest of the Groinks, Zipline Groinks are essentially rail-bound Ranged Groinks; instead of a windshield, they have wheel-like feet that let them zoom along the wires stretched throughout the Sub-Surface Construct on a predefined path. As they pass near Pikmin, they slow down, charge up a powerful explosive shot, and fire it at their target's position. Generally they hang too high to be attacked by most Pikmin but Winged Pikmin, which are able to fly up to them and pull them down to allow other Pikmin to attack for a brief period of time.
