'''Nettlers''' (ネトラ ''Netora'') are orange, beaked, one-eyed slugs encountered in the ''Kid Icarus'' series. They have a moderate movement speed and following [[Enemy Tactics#Trudging|trudging]] tactics, actively seeking out [[Pit]]. They have unique ability to evade Pit's arrows by quickly dodging underneath them. At the beginning of his quest, Pit may be too weak to defeat a Nettler before it touches him.

====Manual Description====
''A one-eyed slug. It looks stupid, but watch out! It's got sharp reflexes and returns Pit's arrows.''


A steady barrage of shots will bring a Nettler down. Unlike what the manual implies, it cannot reflect arrows.

''"Creeps over the floor but has quick enough reactions to avoid Pit's arrows."''

"''Originally a slug, this enemy has evolved arms and gained improved mobility in the process. While not very athletic, its reflexes are excellent. When fired upon, the Nettler can even use its soft body to squish itself flat and dodge attacks.''"
Nettlers return in the game as grounded enemies. They attack by shooting bubbles from their single eye, and are still able to flatten themselves to quickly avoid projectiles launched by Pit's weapons; however, aiming downwards will make their attempts at avoiding fire useless and they are unable to protect themselves against melee attacks. Nettlers are also much larger than before, but are not very common enemies.
