The '''Bumbling Snitchbug''' <span style="line-height:20px;">(トテツチホカシ)</span> is a creature found in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. It closely resembles the [[Swooping Snitchbug]] in appearance, though it possesses more body mass, makes a different buzzing sound, and does not have as distinct a head. The two also behave similarly towards small terrestrial creatures, but instead of targeting [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] specifically, this lumbering bug attacks [[Captain|leaders]], snatching them up and tossing them to the ground. Captains that the enemy has managed to take hold of are able to free themselves if the analog stick is twirled (which is similar to a Jellyfloat sucking a leader up), or if they have a second pilot throw [[Yellow Pikmin]] to combat the Snitchbug.

Weighing the beast down will cause it to crash into the ground, where it is easily overwhelmed by the player's Pikmin forces. Oddly, when having a captain, they fly higher, while it would make sense for it to fly lower.
==Notes==
===Olimar's Notes===
''"This is a variety of snitchbug. Its most interesting characteristic is that it likes to snitch leaders. Yet barring wanton carelessness or incompetence, leaders are not easily captured. Any leader caught by this creature is clearly an idiot, which is why this creature is also known as the exposing snitchbug. There are several known varieties of snitchbugs, but research has stagnated despite it being such an interesting species."''
===Louie's Notes===
''"Remove the wings and discard the remainder of the beast. Enjoy the luxurious, wafer-thin wings with fine water-dumple caviar."''
===Nintendo Player's Guide===
''"One of the two types of Snitchbugs, the Bumbling variety focuses on capturing your pilots. If it manages to hold on, eventually it will throw its victim (or victims) to the ground and cause serious damage. Shake free using the Control Stick and A Button, or switch control to the other pilot and attack with Pikmin."''

==Trivia==
*The Bumbling Snitchbug is one of the only enemies who can only harm a captain.
*The Bumbling Snitchbug's design could possibly a reference to stereotypical japanese cat burglars. The hands look like gloves and the abdomen resembles the typical green bag the burglars always carry around.
*Along with Swooping Snitchbugs, idle Bumbling Snitchbugs rub their hands together. This is similar to flies.
*The Bumbling Snitchbug was created due to programming limitations in the gamecube's hardware.
