The '''Pileated Snagret''', is a larger, and more powerful species in the Snavian family. It has a green scaly body, and a much larger head that is read. It is called 'pileated' because it has a crest of feathers on its head. Its eyes are also covered by some ears-like features. This Snagret is indefinitely more powerful, because not only does it have a ton of more health, ''it also is able to walk on the ground''.

However, [[Purple Pikmin]] are still the best choice because '''you will need''' to use [[Ultra-spicy spray|ultra-spicy spray]], so they can run fast enough, and cause enough damage. The reason purples are great is that when the creature emerges from the ground, you purples will make the Snavian 'bounce' like to all enemies, and in the seconds of thouse bounces, your Pikmin attached to the Snavian will deal damage, and then it will probably return to the ground without eating any Pikmin. If you repeat this, you will emerge victorious towards the terrifyingly difficult creature.

The Pileated Snagret, is a larger, and more powerful species in the Snavian family. It has a green scaly body, and a much larger head that is read. It is called 'pileated' because it has a crest of feathers on its head. Its eyes are also covered by some ears-like features. This Snagret is indefinitely more powerful, because not only does it have a ton of more health, it also is able to walk on the ground. This makes it very hard to hurt it by throwing Pikmin onto it. However, Purple Pikmin are still the best choice because you will need to use ultra-spicy spray, so they can run fast enough, and cause enough damage. The reason purples are great is that when the creature emerges from the ground, you purples will make the Snavian 'bounce' like to all enemies, and in the seconds of thouse bounces, your Pikmin attached to the Snavian will deal damage, and then it will probably return to the ground without eating any Pikmin. If you repeat this, you will emerge victorious towards the terrifyingly difficult creature.

Another, safer strategy is to run around and wait for the Pileated Snagret to emerge. 1/4 of the time, the Snagret will have trouble coming out of the ground. Toss your 'mins on him during this time. when he fully emerges, he'll be too weak to attack, and burrow underground again. Repeat until death.

The Pileated Snagret is found only in Pikmin 2. It can only be found on Sublevel 8 of the Snagret Hole, Sublevel 4 of the Hole of Heroes, and the last (2) sublevel of the Rumbling Grotto in Challenge Mode.
