The Pearly Clamclamp is an enemy in the Pikmin 1 game. This large bivalve has a pinkish shell and a small pearl surrounded by a blear blue membrane. When Pikmin are thrown on it, which is a grueling task, they will attack the membrane to reveal the pearl, but meanwhile the Clamclamp will stretch its mouth wide open and chomp. When it does this, you need to have excellent timing and call the Pikmin so they won't be eaten, this is obviously a very simple predatory tactic for the creature. You will have to sum up the remaining skill in you to destroy the membrane and get the 50 Pikmin prize without losing any Pikmin. This creature is one of the 2 second leading creatures in Pikmin production, succeeded by the Smoky Progg (100 Pikmin) and tied by the Armored Cannon Beetle.
There are only certain places where this creature is:
3 of them are in the Impact Site. One is not submerged in water. One of them has the Positron Generator.
Some are in Challenge Mode (Pikmin 1) in specific hard to reach places.
