The Elastic Mamuta is an enemy in Pikmin: Shipwrecked Stargazers. It is a golden yellow creature similar in appearance to the Mamuta but with blue rings on its body. Its eyes are giant and of a bright orange color. Most strikingly, it has numerous arms that end in hands shaped like rounded triangles, with orifices in the palms of each. This gives the creature an appearance similar to a real-world blue-ringed octopus.
They are most commonly found near water but can survive in or out of it. When in the presence of Pikmin, the Elastic Mamuta will swat them away with strikes from its long-ranged arms, which has a chance of depetaling them. If Pikmin get too close, it can shoot a purple-colored toxic ink from the openings at the end of its limbs. Similar to a Toady Bloyster's panic-inducing ink, the Elastic Mamuta's poison travels farther in water than on land.
When defeated, the limbs of the Elastic Mamuta will retract, becoming little more than nubs on its body.
Notes
Olimar's notes
- “The Elastic Mamuta is a semiaquatic relative to the Mamuta named such due to its outer skin, which has a texture similar to rubber and can stretch to rather impressive lengths. The orifices at the end of its limbs are multi-purpose, functioning as both suction cups to make gripping easier, and openings to shoot their deadly toxins at potential threats and intruders. Although generally living out at sea, strange marks on tree bark imply they sometimes travel inland and even venture high into the canopies of coastal rainforests to find edible matter like fruits!”
Louie's notes
- “I was really excited to try this one out, but sadly, the deadly ink in this beast's body completely taints its flesh, making it inedible.”
Ship's comments
- “Wobbly like a strand of wet clay, this weirdo makes everything slimy and leaks this ornery ink everywhere. If it gets near any of Louie's ingredients...”
