Editing Swarming Sheargrub

The '''Swarming Sheargrub''' ({{j|ブリコ|Buriko}}) is a green Sheargrub with red eyes found in ''[[Pikmin 3]]''. It, in every way excluding size and color, resembles a [[Female Sheargrub]]. Swarming Sheargrubs are known to follow [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] from a distance and can distract an entire squad as a result.

They move around in swarms at high speed (fastest of any known [[Mandiblard family|mandiblard]]). They have no form of offense but can move quickly, taking any attacking Pikmin with them. Once they come across any [[nectar]], they will consume it and grow in size. They can also hide under plants, like Pikmin. Most swarms come in groups of seven.

{{transcript|As the name implies, these fast-moving enemies travel in relatively large groups. Swarming Sheargrubs patrol established paths, jostling any Pikmin they encounter along the way. These pests often latch onto fruit while it's being transported. This essentially increases the weight of the fruit, making it more difficult for your Pikmin to carry.}}

{{transcript|One way to defeat an enemy is to cut off their supply lines. That's the mode of attack these flying things use. They suck up nectar, weigh down pellets, and do whatever they can to keep our numbers low and our troops starved.}}

 

{{transcript|Boil and swallow whole. The real gastronomic joy of this creature is how smooth it goes down.}}

==='''Olimar's Notes'''===

{{transcript|In contrast to the more common variety of mandiblards, it spends its entire life aboveground without ever going below the surface. It hunts for food in packs, preferring to feed on nectar and fruit juice since its jaws are too weak to capture prey. It grows quickly after feeding, but it has difficulty moving at its larger size.}}

 

These Sheargrubs are distinguished by the rest with the word "Swarming", because they move in a swarm. In Japan, they're known as {{j|ブリコ|Buriko}}, which is the name given to the roe of the {{w|Japanese sandfish}}, since fish roe is typically a large group of eggs, not entirely unlike the Swarming Sheargrubs. Internally, it shares its data with the [[Female Sheargrub]], so its internal name is <code>ujinko_a</code>, but when it needs to be disambiguated from the Female Sheargrub, it uses the name <code>ujinko_c</code>.
