The Doodlebug is an enemy in the Pikmin 2 game. It is the same in general appearance to the Iridescent Flint Beetle, except it is coated with dirt and has small flies hovering around it. However, it is actually in the Flint Bug family, not the Flint Beetle family. They, like Iridescent Glint Beetles, drop spray, ultra-bitter spray. They are never seen above ground. However, some people think that the strange bugs found in the Wistful Wild are juvenile Doodlebugs, due to their appearance and the fact that they release poison. When Doodlebugs move, they flatulate and leave noxious clouds of poisonous gas wherever they were, thus making nearby Pikmin subject to poisoning. They may drop treasures in Challenge Mode.

Three of these can be found on Sublevel 1 of the Frontier Cavern.
