Nettlers are one of many species of cyclopic Underworld monster that Pit will fight. They are described as being pink, slug-like creatures, although they have two flippers for arms that allow them to move around faster. Despite this, they are still among the slower creatures of the Underworld, making them seemingly easy targets at first. However, due to their incredibly soft and flexible bodies, Nettlers are able quickly flatten themselves, allowing them to dodge higher-aimed projectiles that may come their way. Nevertheless, they remain nearly defenseless if attacked at close range. Following the defeat of [[Medusa]], Nettlers underwent an evolution that caused them to lose their arms and adopt a much darker color scheme, although the still retained their flexible capabilities.
