The '''Stony Flint Beetle''' ({{j|イワオシコガネ|Iwa Oshi Kogane|Rock | The '''Stony Flint Beetle''' ({{j|イワオシコガネ|Iwa Oshi Kogane|Rock Pushing Scarab}}) is an enemy in {{hp}}. It is light-gray and beetle-like, with two yellow eyes on stalks. It has four legs, with its hind legs being much larger then the front ones. It has various dark gray stripes around it, and is about two times the width of Olimar, although it is often on its hind legs, making it two times taller. It also has two wings that are only visible when it decides to fly, and open its exoskeleton. It will push any [[iron block]]s nearby, which can kill [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] if the blocks land on and crush them. It is a very rare enemy, only appearing in [[Peculiar Rockfall]]. | ||

Even if the creature is exposed to the player, it cannot be killed. The only way to get rid of it is to push back the blocks it pushes. The rock will inevitably reach a ledge, and the Stony Flint Beetle pushing it will fly away. | |||
