The Anode Beetle is an enemy found in [[cave]]s in ''Pikmin 2''. It walks around harmlessly, periodically stopping in place and charging up electricity. If another Anode Beetle is nearby, the two will create a current of [[electricity]] between them, which will instantly kill non-[[Yellow Pikmin]]. If a beetle is alone, it will cause no harm. Its carapace makes it invulnerable to attacks, so a Pikmin must be tossed directly from above in order to flip it around and make it expose its soft underbelly – its only weak point. | The Anode Beetle is an enemy found in [[cave]]s in ''Pikmin 2''.
