The Iridescent Glint Beetle will move slightly more erratically than its relatives, but not too much so. Once activated, it springs out from the ground, and will move quickly, usually away from the captain. If a Pikmin is landed directly onto one's back, it will flip over briefly and drop something (depending on which game). Once a Glint Beetle has been flipped over three times, it will quickly retreat underground. The same thing will happen if the bug is simply left undisturbed above ground for too long. | The Iridescent Glint Beetle will move slightly more erratically than its relatives, but not too much so.

Glint Beetles will never drop Pellets above ground in this game. By default, they will drop six doses of [[Ultra-spicy spray]]- one dose on the first hit, two on the second, and three on the third. However, the Glint Beetle found in [[Giant's Hearth]] will drop a [[Disk of Amusing Wisdom]] instead on the third hit, replacing the triple dose of spray. The Glint Beetle in [[Trial of the Sage Leaf]]'s third story Dig Deep will drop a [[Difficult-Choice Totem]], [[Chance Totem]], and [[Go-with-the-Flow Totem]] when hit three times, dropping no sprays. | Glint Beetles will never drop Pellets above ground in this game.
