The '''Swooping Snitchbug''' is a creature present during both of [[Captain Olimar|Captain Olimar's]] expeditions to the [[Pikmin Planet]]. They are legless, round, flying insects that have evolved wing-like antennae as a means of locomotion. They attack by swooping down and grabbing prey. 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 leaf-stem state. These creatures can be brought to the ground if weighed down by a sufficient number of Pikmin, or with a single [[Purple Pikmin]], rendering 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. | The '''Swooping Snitchbug''' is a creature present during both of [[Captain Olimar|Captain Olimar's]] expeditions to the [[Pikmin Planet]].
