The '''Swooping Snitchbug''' <span style="line-height:20px;">(サライムシ ''Saraimushi'')</span> is an enemy found in every [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' game]] so far. They are legless, round, flying insects that have devolved wing-like antennae as a means of moving. They swoop down, as their name suggests, and grab their prey with their claws. After carrying them for a few seconds, they throw them at the ground. This action would harm most prey, whereas [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] are simply replanted and reverted to their original leaf state. In ''Pikmin 3, ''Swooping Snitchbugs may also grab captains, much like the [[Bumbling Snitchbug]]. | The '''Swooping Snitchbug''' <span style="line-height:20px;">(サライムシ ''Saraimushi'')</span> is an enemy found in every [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' game]] so far. They are legless, round, flying insects that have devolved wing-like antennae as a means of moving. In ''[[Pikmin]] '' and'' [[Pikmin 2]]'', they have glass-like eyes with pupils, but in ''[[Pikmin 3]],'' they have more realistic compound eyes.

These creatures will plummet to the ground if weighed down by a sufficient number of Pikmin, or with a singular [[Purple Pikmin]], rendering it susceptible to further attack. [[Ultra-bitter Spray]] may also be used to freeze it in mid-air, causing it to drop to the ground, which is arguably easier, but of course produces no corpse, and may be considered a waste of sprays. A single [[Rock Pikmin]] can also weigh it down. | These creatures will plummet to the ground if weighed down by a sufficient number of Pikmin, or with a singular [[Purple Pikmin]], rendering it susceptible to further attack.
