How to Beat Masterhop

Steps to Beat Masterhop

Avoid Its Large Hops

Masterhop has a high bounce that can not only flatten any Pikmin but also creates puddles where it lands. It will usually do this when you're directly in front of it.

Freeze While Airborne for Instant Kill

Masterhop can easily be dealt with on the ground by freezing it with Ice Pikmin. However, you can instantly defeat it if you freeze it midair. To do so, bait it to do a large hop to give your Ice Pikmin enough time. Once frozen, it will crash down and die immediately!

DalmoDalmo's Log Wiggly elastic skin is the proper fit for this bouncing beauty! Slippery-smooth and shiny-sleek, its skin is soft as a baby's cheeks! Though you might want to be wary of getting close enough to touch it. Just watching it move will make you yearn for skin that is more radiantly lustrous too.
OlimarOlimar's Log It's widely believed that Yellow Wollyhops and other related species can continue to grow until they start breeding, but after that their growth rate plummets. However, in safe environmentsーones that lack natural predators, for exampleーsome individuals of the species may forgo reproduction altogether and continue growing until they reach gigantic proportions.
The Yellow Wollyhop's telomerase enzymes are particularly active, which prevents their bodies' cells from aging. Under the right conditions, it's not unusual for some individuals to reach over 50 years in age.
LouieLouie's Log Meat can be consumed if first dehydrated with a lot of salt. But the eyeballs and the legs are the best parts.
