Desert Clamclamp

Desert Clamclamps appear in Pikmin: Connection of the Worlds, found in the Distant Desert. They act exactly like normal Pearly Clamclamps. When they bite down to eat Pikmin, however, sand blasts out from their mouths that effectively suffocates Pikmin. Due to this, Tan Pikmin are an excellent choice for these variants of Clamclamp.

Appearance
Desert Clamclamps have a pile of sand in their mouths, so they physically don't have a tongue. Desert Clamclamps have a sandy color to help blend it in with its surroundings. Resting on its "tongue" is a small pearl which can be harvested for a healthy amount of Pikmin. Surrounding the pearl is a thin membrane that must be damaged and broken to harvest the treasure inside.
