The Munge Dweevil is an enemy in Pikmin 2. Like other types of Dweevil, this creature is commonly seen retrieving enemy corpses and treasures. When agitated by attacks, it will release a cloud of gas that will poison the Pikmin. This suitably makes White Pikmin the best choice in battle, as they are immune to poisoning. However, the Munge Dweevil has more health than its relatives. Alternatively, as Purple Pikmin can stun any small Dweevil, they will easily defeat one.

Notes

Olimar's notes

“The munge dweevil is one member of an insect family known for mimicking objects by carrying them on their backs. These insects often carry the carcasses of other life-forms on their backs, but apparently this is not for the purpose of transporting them as food, but instead is another example of their mimic behavior. The munge dweevil produces two different chemical compounds within its body, which form poisonous gas when mixed and expelled. This gas is used only for self-defense.”

Louie's notes

“Exposure to even extreme heat doesn't seem to rid this creature of deposits of potent gas. It's probably best for everyone if you avoid eating this hazardous fare.”

Strategy

Pikmin

Attack it with whites. If whites are not available, it's probably better to kill it with captains. Purples also work, as they have a hundred percent chance of stunning any small Dweevil.

Captains

Run up to it and attack it. Using the captains for attacking is ideal, since they are immune to the poison it emits; even if the Dweevil attacks, the captains will not be harmed.
