Antenna Beetles are creatures in Pikmin 2 that are an exceptional nuisance. They create extremely loud noises with their wings that are so loud, the supersonic waves disrupt the signal on the Treasure Gauge. Also, they are able to steal command of any Pikmin that are nearby, and the only way to get them back would be to kill it, or make it jump away. Having your Pikmin captured could be dangerous, because this creature may lead them into a hazard. If this creature is swarmed, it will be frightened off and jump very high and far, eventually, it will stumble and fall back down, this also occurs if you get near it, or punch it with your pilots. The best way to beat it is to throw your Pikmin on it, Purple Pikmin would work the best, as they may stun it, preventing it from getting up and jumping away.

Every now and then, you will find it only in the specific sublevels of certain caves. You will know immediately if one is in the area if the needle on the Treasure Gauge goes haywire, or that box glows purple, and it makes malfunctioning bleeps.
