If a player, Oatchi, or a Pikmin comes nearby the summoning area, it will dig out of the ground and roam around for a bit, generally behaving like a Female Sheargrub. Should any of those three get too close or attack, it will flail and try and flatten anything that is beneath it. Once any threat has been neutralized it will return back into the earth. | If a player, Oatchi, or a Pikmin comes nearby the summoning area, it will dig out of the ground and roam around for a bit, generally behaving like a Female Sheargrub.

The Mama Sheargrub | {{game help|p4|Add a guide on how to beat it.}} | ||
The Mama Sheargrub can be swiftly be taken care of if you use a [[Spray]] and charge against it with either [[Oatchi]], [[Purple Pikmin]], or [[Rock Pikmin]]. If the ground is soft, you can use Rock Pikmin to avoid your army getting flattened and only have your Rock Pikmin be temporarily grounded. | |||

If this species locates an abundant food source, they won't leave it.
