Anode Beetles are small black beetles with four yellow spots on their wing casings. They are named 'anode' due to the fact that they produce electrical currents if another one is nearby. This creature is blissfully unaware of Pikmin, but if they approach the Beetles or the electrical current then they may be subject to electrocution. The best way to defeat them is by throwing either Yellow Pikmin and/or Purple Pikmin on the beetle's back to flip it over, and then
