The '''Iridescent Flint Beetle''' is an enemy in both [[Pikmin (series)|''Pikmin'' games]]. Attack one by throwing a [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] on top of it, at which it glows red while overturning and drops a useful object; Pikmin attacking from on the ground cannot harm it. This creature disappears after a certain amount of time has passed or it has been overturned enough times.
The '''Forged Courage''' ({{j|情熱合金ド・コンジョー|Jyonetsu Goukin Do Konjyo|Passion Alloy Mr. Guts}}) is a treasure found in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. It is actually the top half of a {{w|Robot|red toy robot}} with guns for arms, similar to the [[Justice Alloy]]. It is found on the last sublevel (7) of the [[Bulblax Kingdom]], inside the body of the [[Emperor Bulblax]], the [[cave]]'s boss. Collecting this item grants the ability of the [[Scorch Guard]], part of the [[Exploration Kit]]. Like [[Treasure#Dynamic weights|some other treasures]], if the player defeats the Emperor Bulblax, but does not have enough Pikmin to carry the Forged Courage, which requires the strength of 20 Pikmin, it will change weight to match the player's army.

In ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', these bugs look rather larger than in [[Pikmin 2|the second game]] and have a slightly different coloration. They are more common, and are somewhat helpful. They are mostly found in foliage or in corners. When hit, they first drop a 1-[[pellet]], then, when hit again, they drop two doses of [[nectar]]. Upon the next direct hit more doses of nectar are released, and then a 5-pellet. This cycle repeats once more, ending after the second 5 -and swift movement. It also poses an indirect threat to Pikmin, as it will often run through Olimar's army. This results in the Pikmin automatically attacking and chasing it unless called back, which can lead them into danger.

In ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', Pikmin no longer attack Iridescent Flint Beetles automatically as they do in the original game. In all ''Pikmin 2'' [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|Challenge Mode]] levels they're in, these creatures drop treasures. They are found in similar locations, but only drop three things: a 1-pellet (a dose of nectar if it's underground), 2 doses of nectar, and then a dose of [[ultra-spicy spray]] (3 doses of nectar if the Ultra-spicy spray hasn't been discovered yet). Using [[Purple Pikmin]], it is easier to fight them due to the shockwaves that the heavy Purple Pikmin produce when thrown.


As a sidenote, it is possible to defeat these creatures while [[Ultra-bitter spray|petrified]], but they drop neither nectar nor [[spray]] and leave no corpse.
It looks fascinating, but it's drenched in that creature's internal juices. Disgusting!


On the main menu, if the player presses Y (Z in the [[New Play Control! Pikmin 2|NPC version]]), an Iridescent Flint Beetle may appear that can be controlled with the C-stick (Gamecube) or the D-pad (NPC). The beetle will be attacked if it gets close to the Pikmin. This is just one of the [[Easter eggs#Play with the title screen|main menu easter eggs]].

While the Flint Beetle cannot be killed, it can have certain items knocked out of it. The creature can only be attacked with Pikmin, as [[Captains]] have no way of damaging this creature. Pikmin must be thrown at the Beetle's shell to flip it, knocking out useful items. The [[Iridescent Glint Beetle]] and the [[Doodlebug]] are damaged in the same way.

This article is about the red robot toy that provides fire invulnerability. For the blue toy that provides enhanced defense, see Justice Alloy.

The Forged Courage (情熱合金ド・コンジョー?, lit.: "Passion Alloy Mr. Guts") is a treasure found in Pikmin 2. It is actually the top half of a red toy robot with guns for arms, similar to the Justice Alloy. It is found on the last sublevel (7) of the Bulblax Kingdom, inside the body of the Emperor Bulblax, the cave's boss. Collecting this item grants the ability of the Scorch Guard, part of the Exploration Kit. Like some other treasures, if the player defeats the Emperor Bulblax, but does not have enough Pikmin to carry the Forged Courage, which requires the strength of 20 Pikmin, it will change weight to match the player's army.

Notes

Ship's dialogs

“My initial report indicates that the giant bulblax spat out some sort of object.

It looks fascinating, but it's drenched in that creature's internal juices. Disgusting!

... ... ... ... Oh, don't roll your eyes at me. I'll store it for you...

This material has perplexing properties. I will try fusing it with this spare space suit.

Processing...complete. Success! Behold my latest invention, the Scorch Guard!

Thanks to the heat-resistant alloy, this suit is now impervious to fire!”

Olimar's journal

“I found this marvelous alloy in a hole swarming with bulborbs! On that adventure, I even clashed with an Emperor Bulblax! In honor of my triumph over that appallingly obese beast, I named the hole the Bulblax Kingdom.”

Sales pitch

“A heat-resistant alloy forged in the fires of justice and passion. Wear it and feel courage's burn! You have nothing to fear! (Due to horrid ventilation, this is not suited for sweaty beings.)”
