Phosbat Pod
Piklopedia #21
Notes
Alph
Structural flaw: light sensitivity
Weight: unknown
I have so many questions. Where does it get the resources to manufacture all of the tiny models? And why does light cause it to stop working? I've heard of solar-powered machines, but this one seems to be solar-powerless.
Brittany
Try to break the egg, and the adult phosbat will come screeching right for you. As ugly and mean as it is, it does care about its little ones, so you can't call it all bad.
Charlie
The downside of these things is that they never stop pumping out nasty critters, but the upside is that if you stand next to one long enough, you can get some good combat training in. I'd take one home to generate sparring partners, but they stop working as soon as light hits them.
Louie
You can slurp up this beast's eggs right from the shell! With a sweet and velvety texture, they melt in your mouth!

Phosbat Sac
Tectupervus pteromys
Aerodentia family
The vehemoth phosbat's egg sacs are found affixed to surfaces around its lair. Each sac spawns roughly five baby phosbats, stopping when enough pheromones are in the air to trigger its automatic response. This keeps the population density of phosbats in any given cave at a sustainable level, which is important given the limited supply of food available in its habitat.

In the official guide

An active Phosbat Pod is capable of producing a new Phosbat every few seconds. Use any Pikmin type to attack these small structures and stop the appearance of additional enemies.
Tip! Even if a Phosbat Pod is inactive, it's worth attacking: destroying one of these enemy structures generally yields some Nectar.
