The Bearded Amprat is a rodent-like creature in Pikmin 3. It resembles a small white rodent with large, brown ears that lay flat against its face, which have small spots on the outward-facing side, resembling eyes. It has four, small, mouse-like feet which it uses to move around and to grasp prey. Its body ends in a few small brown spots and a skinny, rat-like tail.

Normally, the creature slowly and passively walks around its territory. When Pikmin or a Captain come close, however, it will flare its ears up to reveal its face and try to grab one and consume them. They have large amounts of hair that drapes over their mouths to make their faces resemble skulls. This hair spikes up when they are attacked and electricity will begin to pulse through their entire body to harm all non-Yellow Pikmin, so Yellows are best used to fight it.

Notes

Pikmin 3 Website

"A fearsome creature capable of sending out electric shocks to fend off any Pikmin brave enough to come into contact with it."

Trivia

• "Amprat" is a portmanteau of "Amp", a measurement unit of electricity, and "Rat", a type of real-life rodent which it resembles.
