The Joustmite (カブリムシ) is a type of enemy in Pikmin 3 that acts and looks like the Cloaking Burrow-nit, but shields its face rather than its rear (its weakpoint). It buries itself in the ground (although some of its shell is still visible), waiting for an unsuspecting player. Once a player enters the vicinity of the Joustmite, it'll pop out from under the ground and proceed to attack the player's Pikmin by thrusting it's long, sharp proboscis at them. It can shake Pikmin off by thrusting its loose carapace upward, throwing any Pikmin near it in front of its face. Unlike the Cloaking Burrow-nit, it can catch multiple Pikmin at one time and kill them much faster. However, Rock Pikmin are impervious to its attacks, making the use of them a great strategy.
