Attacks Tackles Pikmin

A Corrupted Animunculus is a robot encountered in droves during the fight against the Awakened Titan in Pikmin: Infection in Progress. They are unearthed by the Awakened Titan if its arms are still attached, and are dispensed from one of the six ports along the walls of the chamber through the entire fight. Corrupted Animunculi emit bursts of garbled static when idle or attacking, in what seems to be an attempt to communicate. The Awakened Titan appears to be a gigantic and unfinished version of the Corrupted Animunculi, with the addition of a beacon-like structure atop its head.

Corrupted Animunculi have a very similar appearance to Koppaites and Hocotatians. They are of different shapes and sizes, some being bulkier or taller than others, and in different conditions, as some are missing some of their limbs or have broken components. If they are missing a leg or two, they will crawl and have no attacks. If they are missing arms, they will attack normally. If their eyes are broken, they will tackle any source of noise they detect. A blind Corrupted Animunculi can be told apart from others because their eyes do not glow. Eye colors can be a variety of vibrant colors.

In combat, Corrupted Animunculi are completely harmless. Their only attack consists of diving into Pikmin, which only knocks them down. Corrupted Animunculi damage themselves upon hitting a surface and can easily destroy themselves after only a few attacks. Some Corrupted Animunculi will fall apart before they ever have an opportunity to attack. If the President is tackled, however, he will either be staggered and unable to move for a few seconds, or he will be knocked down, in which case he will rise to his feet after a few moments. When defeated, a Corrupted Animunculus will shatter into many pieces that melt into the floor shortly thereafter. If its eyes were functional, they will dim and blacken.
