Spore Dweevils are a species of dweevil seen in Pikmin 5. This type of dweevil has small sporovids on its back. This has been proven to be a symbiotic relationship, as the dweevils have a defense mechanism and the mushrooms have shelter. They act the same as any other dweevil, picking up whatever they come across, but when threatened by Pikmin, they use the small mushrooms on their back to spray spores on them. This process slowly converts affected Pikmin, even White Pikmin, into Mushroom Pikmin, though they can be whistled to stop their transformation. Mushroom Pikmin that it converts follow it, and the dweevil itself can throw them with its hand-shaped mandibles at leaders and Pikmin alike. When defeated, the mushrooms on its back deflate much like a Puffstool, any Mushroom Pikmin return to normal, and its corpse falls flat.

Mold Dweevils are a species of dweevil appearing in Pikmin: Other Frontier. They are pale green with tan eyes. They are noted to be slower than the other species but make up for having higher defense. Like all dweevils, it will attempt to carry nearby objects and can defend itself with a hazard, in this case, mold. All Pikmin in range of its attack will be converted to Moldmin, which defend the dweevil. As such, Cleaner Pikmin should be used to attack it.

Notes

Olimar's notes

This enigmatic species of dweevil is very tricky to dissect. Due to its slow and sluggish movements, many scientists say it's an unfortunate insect infected by mold. On the other hand, it still exhibits the behavior of common dweevils. Overall, it's tricky to classify.
