Behavior

The Crystalline Crushblat will mostly stand in an idle position, only moving when it senses Pikmin nearby. It will then slowly walk over and attempt to crush them with its crystal shell. If its shell is broken, it will run to the limits of its territory, where it can be easily killed.

Strategy

The following article or section contains guides. The strategies shown are just suggestions.

Because of its slow motion with its exoskeleton on, the Crystalline Crushblat is a rather easy foe to kill. It can be defeated by breaking its outer shell with Rock Pikmin or a bomb rock, and then using any Pikmin type to damage its exposed body. The only danger is approaching right next to it with its shell on, as this allows it to crush you and your Pikmin. It does even this slowly, however.

Notes

Hey! Pikmin logs

“It's aggressive while encased in its crystal shell, but runs away quickly if that shell should be broken. That behavior seems familiar...I think I know someone on Hocotate whose personality changes depending on what they're wearing.”
