User:Pikmin1254/Pikmin Bestiary

I've taken it upon myself to take all of the info from the Field Guide section of the NPC! Pikmin Prima guide. I did not take the photos, MissileWaster of the Something Awful forums did. I wrote what it says on the pages because almost all of them aren't very clear. The rest is coming later. There is no entry for the Candypop Bud oddly.

Armored Cannon Beetle

Common Name: Armored Cannon Beetle

Technical Name: Greater Lithopod

Binomial Nomenclature: Granitus chukkulinae

Habitat: The Forest of Hope, The Distant Spring

Description: "This member of the lithopod family migrated to the area from the continent during a global climate shift in the atmosphere within the last century. The continental breed of this beast, known as the strong-armed cannon beetle, had the ability to compress inhaled air in a bladder and use the pressure to expel partially digested fragments of stone. This migrant lithopod has developed a stronger carapace than its relatives."

Beady Long Legs

Common Name: Beady Long Legs

Technical Name: Arachnorb

Binomial Nomenclature: Pseudoarachnia armoralis

Habitat: The Forest Navel

Description: "Although this creature is commonly associated with spiders, it is actually the result of a separate evolutionary line of insectoid creatures. Since the spherical body portion supported by the creature's legs carries most of its internal organs, there appear to be no other features that would correspond to a head or abdomen. Waxy secretions form this creature's distinctive armored shell."

Breadbug

Common Name: Breadbug

Technical Name: Vanilla Breadbug

Bionamial Nomenclature: Pansarus gluttoniae

Habitat: The Forest Navel

Description: "The adult breadbug competes for many of the same food sources as Pikmin, but its thick-skinned hide allows it to withstand most Pikmin group attacks. However, some reaserchers claim to have observed the breadbug being overwhelmed by mssive numbers of Pikmin and then reduced to food."
