Unlike it's Cloaking cousin, the Joustmite uses its shell to shield its face rather than its rear (its weakpoint).


Just like the Burrow-nit, it hides partially buried in the ground, waiting for unsuspecting prey. Once a player enters the attack range of the Joustmite, it pops out from under the ground and proceeds to attack the player's Pikmin by attempting to use its long, needle-like proboscis to spear them. It can shake Pikmin off by bucking, shaking its loose carapace. Unlike the Cloaking Burrow-nit, it can catch up to three Pikmin at once and kill them much faster.

==Battle Strategy==
[[Rock Pikmin]] are impervious to its stabbing proboscis, making them highly effective to combat this creature. Charging the Joustmite from behind is also effective, just as long as you have a large group of Pikmin. Be wary though, as the Joustmite can eat Pikmin rather swiftly.

==Trivia==
*The Joustmites are named after ''jousting'', a medieval sport with 2 opponents riding on horses, with the objective to knock the other one off of the horse using a sharp lance. The Joustmites are named after this for its proboscis resemble a lance. {{Enemies}}
