[[Swarming]] will not harm it, as it has a protective shell, similar to the [[Iridescent Flint Beetle|Flint Beetles]]. To damage it, one must throw a Pikmin on top of it to flip it over, then proceed to swarm it. [[Purple Pikmin]] can cause them to flip over even if not directly hit.

== [[Arachnode]] ==
The '''Arachnode''' ({{j|マリグモ|Mari Gumo|{{w|Temari (toy)|Temari}} Spider}}) is a spider-like [[enemy]] in {{p3}} and {{p4}} that live on interactable webs. While dormant on its web, the Arachnode resembles cocoons, with a black and yellow striped and sphere-shaped body. This shape and coloring comes from the eight legs wrapped tightly around its body; its actual body is comprised of small black orbs with yellow circles instead of stripes. Once a [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] or [[leader]] gets caught in an Arachnode's web, it will uncurl its legs after a while, and wanders up to its prey, consuming them quickly once it has reached them. It may also wander around the web freely in order to avoid Pikmin that are being thrown at it. The web will collapse once the Arachnode is defeated.
Pikmin caught in the web can be saved by whistling at them. This is important, especially with a small squad, as Pikmin shaken off by the Arachnode will usually get stuck in the web. [[Winged Pikmin]] carrying objects will get stuck in webs that are along their route, making webs the primary [[obstacle]] for these types of Pikmin.
== [[Arctic Cannon Larva]] ==
The '''Arctic Cannon Larva''' ({{j|ユキフタクチ|Yuki Futa Kuchi|Snow Two-Mouth}}) is an [[Enemy|enemy]] in {{p3}} and {{p4}}. It is bright green, with a lavender underbelly, and are accustomed to cold conditions. They are the larval form of the [[Arctic Cannon Beetle]].
Unlike their rock-spitting relatives, the Arctic Cannon Larva launches giant snowballs. While mostly equivalent to boulders in functionality, snowballs are incapable of killing Pikmin, instead simply picking them up and carrying them along until they crash into something (even other snowballs); [[Winged Pikmin]] won't even be picked up by the projectiles, only knocked back. Leaders will be picked up as well, which also traps them until the snowball is destroyed. As a result, the creature is annoying at best, and is only a threat if the Pikmin it rolls away end up next to some other enemy or [[hazard]] without the player noticing, but can be killed with relative ease by any Pikmin type.
