The '''Segmented Crawbster''' ({{j|ゴロムシ|Goromushi|Ground Ball Bug}}) is a [[Enemy#Boss|boss]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. It is the boss of the [[Cavern of Chaos]]' final sublevel (10), which is located in the [[Wistful Wild]]. This is the only place where it can be found. This crab-like creature has one large arm, and an exceedingly smaller left arm. It also has a rather thick shell protecting it. This creature rolls after the active [[leader]], occasionally [[crushing]] [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] with its hard shell. If it crashes into a wall, it can cause boulders to fall. It will then struggle to get back up in an upright position, and while doing so will expose its weak spot: its flashing underbelly. Eventually, it will then get back up and swing its large arm around back and forth two or so times and continue its assault.

In order to defeat this creature, it must be lead into a wall while it is rolling. Its rolling is more focused on the active [[leader]], not the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]. There is a slight chance that eggs will drop along with the boulders; these may contain [[Mitite]]s, [[spray]]s, or [[nectar]], and they will usually continue to drop every time the Segmented Crawbster crashes into the walls. After the boulders have fallen, the leader needs to be on either the left or right side of the creature and must [[throw]] his Pikmin onto its underside. After enough time has passed, it will get up and swing its bulking arm, which can't kill Pikmin, but deflowers them. Once defeated, the Segmented Crawbster will groan and squeal as it is underbelly explodes violently, spewing goo particles all over the immediate vicinity, before dropping the [[Silencer]].

In terms of which Pikmin are the most effective for defeating the Crawbster, it is advisable to use a group of around 10-15 Purple Pikmin – they must have Flowers so they do not lag behind and get crushed. Care must be taken if one is to use them, as if they are deflowered by the arm attack they will surely be crushed by the roll. However, if few/no Purples are flowers, flower or budded Red Pikmin can do the job, as they have average speed and the second strongest power in the game. A group of 15-25 Red Pikmin is a good number to attack the Crawbster with.

*The Segmented Crawbster cannot be brought to use his rolling attack in the [[Piklopedia]], for it only chases after leaders.

*The Segmented Crawbster is the second rarest creature in the [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' series]] so far, the first being the secret boss in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', the [[Smoky Progg]]. That is because only one of it is ever found, and it is the only known member of its family (Creep-crab family). The Smoky Progg, however, has no known family, and stops appearing after day 15.

*When it falls down on the tiled floor in the Sublevel where it is found, pieces of tile will fling from the impact; however, even in the [[Piklopedia]], where no tiles are found, it will still show tiles flinging from its fall, as they are a part of its impact animation.
