No, this isn't a spray that makes Pikmin extremely annoyed. I'm sure some of you thought that before clicking on this thread.
Ultra-Salty Spray could replace or come with the return of Ultra-Bitter Spray. It would have two different functions. It's first would be for spraying on enemies. Once sprayed on say, a bulborb, it's eyes would hurt causing it to flinch constantly as if Pikmin were on it's eyes. Since it would be flinching constantly, it would best be taken down by Rock Pikmin since they don't latch on and therefore can't get thrown off. The second use would be for spraying your Pikmin. Once sprayed, they'll have a white-ish color on their heads and stems. If they are eaten while under this effect, the creature would have a very dry throat and be stunned. In a way, it would work similar to creatures eating White Pikmin. Only, instead of dealing damage, they get stunned. The stun time would rely on the size of the Pikmin (meaning Rock Pikmin would stun longer than Yellows for instance) and the amount of Pikmin. It would be collected from underwater, meaning you won't be able to use this spray until every Pikmin is acquired if you follow the traditional order of Pikmin acquiring. It would look like a white version of the golden nuggets you see in mission mode. Enemies who were killed while stunned by the spray would have a chance to drop enough salt rocks to fill a bottle.

Actually, I love the concept! Very good idea! alternatively, I could see ultra-salty spray on a pikmin make the pikmin immune to one consumption attack.

Yeah, like in that direct where the bulbear spat up the pikmin which were on fire.

Yeah, I was thinking of having the enemies spit out the salty Pikmin as well. Yeah, like in that direct where the bulbear spat up the pikmin which were on fire. Huh? Is this a gameplay mechanic I never heard of?

ultra salty spray on Pikmin should give them some kind of downgrade too because pikmin are "ambulatory root structures" and salt clogs plant roots since the molecules are bigger than water, of course, pikmin are never seen drnking water but its just to give it a little more realism

True, that does make some sense in terms of a Pikmin's biological structure, but sometimes realism needs to be sacrificed for gameplay.
