The Bug-Eyed Crawmad is a miniboss that appears in Pikmin 3, twice in story mode, both times in the Garden of Hope. Its appearance is similar to the Hermit Crawmad, however, it possesses distinctly large eyes protruding out of its head through eyestalks. Like the Shaggy Long Legs, it appears as a star on the radar. It attacks by charging out of a hole in the ground and grabbing up to 10 Pikmin which it then proceeds to eat. It can also retreat into its hole to avoid attack and can switch between different holes if needed. The Bug-Eyed Crawmad can be defeated by attacking its eyes. Winged Pikmin are the most effective for this because they can charge the eyestalks instead of the body like the other Pikmin and are thus less likely to be caught in the process. When the eyes are attacked, they turn red and eventually retract. If this process is completed before the Crawmad retreats into its hole, the Crawmad will flip over, revealing its soft underbelly. Attack and repeat the process if needed. When defeated it drops fruit. In mission mode, 1 appears in Collect Treasure, in the 11th level, the Fortress of Festivity. It releases 4 Cupid's Grenades when defeated and is worth 100 Pokos. Another appears in Battle Enemies stage 14, Forgotten Cove. It's behind a dirt wall. Killing it gets you 100 points.
