White-Tipped Burrowing Snarrow

The White-Tipped Burrowing Snarrow is a snavian, flying boss found in Pikmin Z. It is a snake-like enemy with fully-formed wings for flight, green scales, and a curved beak.

Biology
This species of Snavian still holds the flying wings from its ancestors, and still having the ability to fly around the area. As for attacks, it's able to actually breathe fire from its mouth, and divebombs you and your Pikmin, while also creating gust winds with its wings.

Piklopedia Entry
''This species of Burrowing Snarrow actually still holds the ability to fly, something most other Snagrets and Snarrows had removed in their evolution. It leaves me to wonder why other Snagrets and Snarrows hadn't done the same thing.''

Strategy
The fight between you and the boss takes place in a bird's nest, which the White-Tipped Burrowing Snarrow will fly around the arena, just out of reach. During the fight, it will focus on your Pikmin, and dive at them from the sky. When landed, you're able to attack it while it tries to get itself free. However, once it gets free, the arena's nest will be removed, making it harder to move around. Ironically, when it breathes fire at you it will not burn the nest. When it starts breathing fire, it will lower itself onto the nest, which will give you a chance to throw your Pikmin onto it. Continue attacking until it falls in defeat.
