The Swarming Sheargrub is a large sheargrub-like enemy. It in every way excluding size and color looks like a Female Sheargrub. They are known to follow Pikmin from a distance, and can distract your swarm as a result. They are notably faster than most Mandiblards. They move around in "swarms" at high speed. They have no form of offense but can move quickly taking attacking Pikmin with them. They can grow into size after consuming a dose of nectar, growing larger with each dose consumed. They can weigh down objects such as fruit depending on how much nectar they have consumed.
