The '''Swooping Snitchbug''' ({{j|サライムシ|Sarai Mushi|Kidnapping Bug}}) is a | The '''Swooping Snitchbug''' ({{j|サライムシ|Sarai Mushi|Kidnapping Bug}}) is a creature found in the main three [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' games]] and {{hp}}. They are legless, round, flying insects that have evolved wing-like antennae as a means of locomotion. In ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'' and ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', they have glass-like eyes with pupils, but in ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', they have more realistic compound eyes. In ''Hey! Pikmin'', they return to having less realistic eyes, although they are still red like in ''Pikmin 3''. They swoop down, as their name suggests, and grab their prey with their claws – a maximum of two at once. After carrying them for a few seconds, they violently throw them towards the ground. This action would harm most prey, whereas [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] are simply replanted and reverted to their original [[Maturity|leaf stage]] in the first two games (in ''Pikmin 3'', their maturity remains the same). They are also able to pick up the [[leader]]s in ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', much like [[Bumbling Snitchbug]]s do in ''Pikmin 2'' – if they don't [[button mashing|escape]], they will be tossed to the ground and [[health|damaged]]. | ||
These creatures will plummet to the ground if weighed down by a sufficient number of Pikmin, or with a single [[Purple Pikmin]] in ''Pikmin 2'' or a single [[Rock Pikmin]] in ''Pikmin 3''. This renders it susceptible to further attack. [[ | These creatures will plummet to the ground if weighed down by a sufficient number of Pikmin, or with a single [[Purple Pikmin]] in ''Pikmin 2'' or a single [[Rock Pikmin]] in ''Pikmin 3''. This renders it susceptible to further attack. [[ultra-bitter spray]]s may also be used to freeze it in mid-air, causing it to drop to the ground, which is arguably easier, but of course produces no corpse, and may be considered a waste of sprays. | ||
Should the enemy throw a [[Yellow Pikmin]] that is holding a [[bomb-rock]] in ''Pikmin'', the bomb-rock will explode, killing the Yellow Pikmin, all Pikmin caught in the blast, and likely itself, too. In ''Pikmin 3'', it will carry the bomb rock and not the Pikmin, and throwing the bomb-rock merely activates it instead of causing an immediate explosion. Although the creature is not as interested in killing Pikmin as much as it is chucking them, it may end up throwing a Pikmin at a hazard. | Should the enemy throw a [[Yellow Pikmin]] that is holding a [[bomb-rock]] in ''Pikmin'', the bomb-rock will explode, killing the Yellow Pikmin, all Pikmin caught in the blast, and likely itself, too.

Although the creature is not as interested in killing Pikmin as much as it is chucking them, it may end up throwing a Pikmin at a hazard. | ||
In | In ''Pikmin'', it can and will grab Pikmin from the leader's hand, if [[Captain Olimar|the captain]] is holding on to it before [[throw]]ing, but in ''Pikmin 2'', it will ignore any held Pikmin; it can still steal it from the hand if it begun swooping prior to the grab, however. In ''Pikmin 3'', every time it dives, it randomly chooses to catch Pikmin or leaders, and if it chooses the former, it will never succeed in grabbing a held Pikmin. If it snatches two Pikmin in a single dive, the way it throws them will also differ between games – in ''Pikmin'', it will throw one Pikmin first, fly around some more, and then throw the second one, but in ''Pikmin 2'' and ''Pikmin 3'', it will throw both of them at once. In ''Hey! Pikmin'', they will attempt to swoop straight down, grab Pikmin, and fly back up withought coming back again, counting as a death to the player's Pikmin. They are incredibly rare in this game, as only a few appear, in [[Olimar's Madcap Ride]]. | ||
In ''Pikmin'', it only appears in [[The Forest of Hope]] on day 15 and forward, and in [[The Distant Spring]] on day 5 and forward. | In ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', it only appears in [[The Forest of Hope]] on day 15 and forward, and in [[The Distant Spring]] on day 5 and forward. | ||

Be warned, as on sublevels with abysses, the snitchbug can throw Pikmin down the pit. The snitchbug is much less of a threat in this game.

In ''Pikmin 3'', like in all of the other games, around 5 Pikmin are able to weigh the Swooping Snitchbug down, making it easy to defeat. It's recommended to use Yellow Pikmin to weigh it down, as their throwing height ensures it will land on the Swooping Snitchbug, and the Snitchbug can fly higher in this game. If you have a reasonable amount of Winged Pikmin, swarming it will be sure to weigh it down. A direct hit from a Rock Pikmin will bring the Swooping Snitchbug down too, similar to how throwing one Purple Pikmin on it will weigh it down in ''Pikmin 2''. | In ''Pikmin 3'', like in all of the other games, around 5 Pikmin are able to weigh the Swooping Snitchbug down, making it easy to defeat.

There is a rare glitch in ''Pikmin'': once you've knocked the Swooping Snitchbug down to the ground, throw your Pikmin onto the creature and swarm it with all of the other Pikmin, which should kill it. Then, carry it back to the Onions by swarming the corpse. Later, you will notice the Pikmin you threw on the squirming Swooping Snitchbug are floating in the air, making the attacking motion as if they are attacking something invisible. | There is a rare glitch in ''Pikmin'': once you've knocked the Swooping Snitchbug down to the ground, throw your Pikmin onto the creature and swarm it with all of the other Pikmin, which should kill it.
