The Doodlebug is an enemy in Pikmin 2. Similar to the Iridescent Flint Beetle, this bug hides in a spot underground, and when approached, it unburrows and quickly scatters around. Periodically, it stops in place to rest, providing the player with the opportunity to hit it to obtain a reward, normally a spray drop. After resting, when it darts off to a new location, it leaves a cloud of poisonous gas behind, making White Pikmin the ideal choice for combat.

Naming

The name of this family comes from the Iridescent Flint Beetle's name, but with the more generic "bug" instead of "beetle".
