I have a headcanon for the waterwraith for pikmin 2
I think the Waterwraith represents a near death experience due to almost drowning in the submerged castle
So the castle is the only cave of the game where the entrance in entirely underwater, I think the suits couldnt handle such depths, I mean as far as we know the submerged castle could be entirely flooded with only small pockets of air for the various animals
Since the suits arnt desined for deep depths the captains hallucinate the waterwraith and if you get knocked out you almost drown before the ship takes you back
Just something to think about
