Oily Crawmad

PS undefined

The Oily Crawmad is a subspecies of the Hermit Crawmad, almost identical to its namesake but with a green coloration. It never actually leaves its burrow, instead choosing to pop up and launch globs of oil at passersby. This oil, if it gets on the active leader, will cover the screen with black splotches, making it difficult to see what's going on. Pikmin will also be eaten if they walk too close to the burrow containing the creature. Fortunately, its exoskeleton is nowhere near as tough as its relative, so Pikmin can attack any part of its body.

Pikmin X: Deep Freeze
In Pikmin X: Deep Freeze, these are light pinkish-orange in color and are actually Crawmad nymphs whose exoskeleton has not fully hardened. They do not have a lot of health but generally appear in groups functioning like turrets, often in the safety of pools of water.
