Recommended Tactics

When the battle starts, you already have half of the available Pikmin in your squad. Toss one crew member onto the group of Rock Pikmin sprouts, then toss a crew member over to the Winged Pikmin sprouts. Lock onto the Plasm Wraith, flank the creature, then send your Pikmin charging in to attack.

As the Plasm Wraith moves through the enclosure, some of the attacking Pikmin are knocked loose. For now, just leave these Pikmin where they fall. Idle Pikmin will automatically destroy any nearby plasm puddles.

Pluck the remaining sprouts, then turn your focus to the Plasm Wraith. Use half of your Pikmin to attack the enemy while you use the rest of your squad to destroy the loose plasm. When the creature begins summoning Elemental Plasms, use the appropriate Pikmin to destroy each hazard. Each time an Elemental Plasm dissolves, allow the Pikmin assigned to the hazard to destroy the resulting plasm. Destroy the plasm puddles until the Plasm Wraith succumbs to your attacks.

Use the same basic tactics when you’re playing with a partner. Use the main squad to attack the Plasm Wraith as both players pluck the sprouts scattered throughout the enclosure. When all of the sprouts are plucked, have one destroy the loose plasm as the other player attacks the Plasm Wraith and any Elemental Plasms that appear.
