The '''Cloaking Burrow-nit''' <span style="line-height:20px;">(</span><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,sans-serif;line-height:19px;">ハオリムシ) </span>is an insect-like creature found in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. It rests face-down in the ground. It has a dark blue shell with large, red eye markings on it. If it is approached by a group of Pikmin, it emerges and attempts to follow and attack the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]. It has a sharp proboscis which can be thrust into prey, piercing the victim and eventually swallowing it. Burrow-nits, primarily the one in the [[Wistful Wild]], will deconstruct nearby bridges, similar to [[Mandiblard]]s. The Cloaking Burrow-nit takes 8 Pikmin to carry and produces 8 seeds when toted to an [[Onion]]. If found underground, its corpse is worth 3 [[Pokos]].
The '''Cloaking Burrow-nit''' ({{j|ハオリムシ|Haori Mushi|{{w|Haori}} Insect}}) is an insect-like [[enemy]] found in {{p2}}. Cloaking Burrow-nits have dark blue shells with large, red {{w|eyespot (mimicry)|eyespots}}. When they hunt, they choose a place where they rest face-down in the ground, patiently waiting for prey to draw near. If one is approached, it emerges and attempts to follow and attack the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] until they escape out of its pursuit range, when it then promptly returns to the spot where it was resting and re-burrows its head to wait for its next opportunity to chase prey. They have sharp proboscises which can be thrust into prey, piercing victims and causing damage, right before sucking them up and swallowing them.

Burrow-nits, primarily the one in [[Wistful Wild]], will deconstruct nearby bridges, similar to [[Mandiblard|Sheargrubs]]. This creature isn't seen too often, and is not very dangerous, as it only can kill one Pikmin at a time when it attacks. The Burrow-nit's replacements, the [[Joustmite]] and the [[Flighty Joustmite]], appear in {{p3}} and {{p4}} with a different look and a proboscis at the front of their shell rather than in their vulnerable back, but nevertheless with the familiar proboscis and eye-markings.

This creature isn't seen often, and it is not very dangerous, as it can only kill one Pikmin at a time. Even if it manages to impale a Pikmin, the Burrow-nit will take some time to fully ingest it, making it vunerable to attack. The best way to defeat a Burrow-nit is to swarm its weak spot, which is its face, just as it emerges (it moves and attacks very slow, so it shouldn't have time to react) or throw [[Purple Pikmin]] onto its back (they will eventually crawl towards the face for maximum damage). Purples also work well for stunning the creature, making it an even easier kill with all other Pikmin. It's proboscis attack cannot harm captains. The Cloaking Burrow-nit should not be any trouble to defeat.

==Behavior==
The Cloaking Burrow-nit hides underground with its large shell protruding to the surface. The eye-like markings appear on the back of the shell, so what appears to be its front-side from a distance is actually its rear. When approached, a Burrow-nit will hastily raise its full body to the surface and begin its attack. Its shell protects its rear end entirely, and any Pikmin that lands there will simply slide off. Its face, however, is not protected and can be damaged easily, as it needs to be facing its prey to attack. Though the Burrow-nit is a creature of decent size, it will be defeated within seconds if attacked by a considerable number of Pikmin.
 
The creature has one basic attack: it will shoot its proboscis out to quite a range, snagging the first Pikmin it comes in contact with. Once in the creature's grip, a Pikmin will be eaten after a few seconds. If it eats a [[White Pikmin]], the creature will die instantly. When being attacked the Burrow-nit may also shake all Pikmin from it.
 
Interestingly, when a Pikmin is speared, a red liquid bursts out. It is currently unknown what this liquid is.
 
== Strategy ==
{{guide}}
[[Swarm]]ing it is a suitable method, and 25 Pikmin are enough. Aim for the face mostly, but even if Pikmin are told to attack the hard shell, they usually revert to the face eventually. Purple Pikmin can also be thrown at its back or face, with a chance to stun it. Even if it does stab a Pikmin, it is slow in ingesting it, so if you can kill it before it's done with its meal, the Pikmin will survive.
 
Alternatively, if you are concerned about losing any Pikmin, use both [[leader]]s, and repeatedly [[punch]] the creature's face while making sure not to be hit with the proboscis. It may attempt to shake off the leaders, but this action can be foreseen and avoided easily.

The Cloaking Burrow-nit (ハオリムシ?, lit.: "Haori Insect") is an insect-like enemy found in Pikmin 2. Cloaking Burrow-nits have dark blue shells with large, red eyespots. When they hunt, they choose a place where they rest face-down in the ground, patiently waiting for prey to draw near. If one is approached, it emerges and attempts to follow and attack the Pikmin until they escape out of its pursuit range, when it then promptly returns to the spot where it was resting and re-burrows its head to wait for its next opportunity to chase prey. They have sharp proboscises which can be thrust into prey, piercing victims and causing damage, right before sucking them up and swallowing them.

Burrow-nits, primarily the one in Wistful Wild, will deconstruct nearby bridges, similar to Sheargrubs. This creature isn't seen too often, and is not very dangerous, as it only can kill one Pikmin at a time when it attacks. The Burrow-nit's replacements, the Joustmite and the Flighty Joustmite, appear in Pikmin 3 and Pikmin 4 with a different look and a proboscis at the front of their shell rather than in their vulnerable back, but nevertheless with the familiar proboscis and eye-markings.

Notes

Olimar's notes

The snake-eye pattern on this beast's shell is one of the most distinctive features of the burrow-nit family. The red pattern of the cloaking burrow-nit and the spikes around its mantle make it easily identifiable while still making it a representative specimen of the burrow-nit family. The shell on the cloaking burrow-nit's back also provides a frame that fixes its muscular structure in place, and appears to give the creature its powerful needle-launching attack.

Louie's notes

Boil in the shell with a pinch of salt until bright red, and serve piping hot with tartar sauce.

Pikmin 2 Nintendo Player's Guide[edit]

The vulnerable area of a Cloaking Burrow-nit is very close to its most dangerous parts: its mouth and tentaclelike tongue. A Burrow-nit spends most of its time partially buried in the ground. When your troops get close, it will attack. Toss Pikmin at its head and try to defeat it before it can eat a sprout.

Behavior[edit]

The Cloaking Burrow-nit hides underground with its large shell protruding to the surface. The eye-like markings appear on the back of the shell, so what appears to be its front-side from a distance is actually its rear. When approached, a Burrow-nit will hastily raise its full body to the surface and begin its attack. Its shell protects its rear end entirely, and any Pikmin that lands there will simply slide off. Its face, however, is not protected and can be damaged easily, as it needs to be facing its prey to attack. Though the Burrow-nit is a creature of decent size, it will be defeated within seconds if attacked by a considerable number of Pikmin.

The creature has one basic attack: it will shoot its proboscis out to quite a range, snagging the first Pikmin it comes in contact with. Once in the creature's grip, a Pikmin will be eaten after a few seconds. If it eats a White Pikmin, the creature will die instantly. When being attacked the Burrow-nit may also shake all Pikmin from it.

Interestingly, when a Pikmin is speared, a red liquid bursts out. It is currently unknown what this liquid is.

Strategy[edit]

The following article or section contains guides.
The strategies shown are just suggestions.

Swarming it is a suitable method, and 25 Pikmin are enough. Aim for the face mostly, but even if Pikmin are told to attack the hard shell, they usually revert to the face eventually. Purple Pikmin can also be thrown at its back or face, with a chance to stun it. Even if it does stab a Pikmin, it is slow in ingesting it, so if you can kill it before it's done with its meal, the Pikmin will survive.

Alternatively, if you are concerned about losing any Pikmin, use both leaders, and repeatedly punch the creature's face while making sure not to be hit with the proboscis. It may attempt to shake off the leaders, but this action can be foreseen and avoided easily.
