Pikmin: Spark
This article or section presents information pertaining to Pikmin: Spark, a fanon game created by Glubbfubb.

The Ironclad Tarantuar is a boss encountered in Pikmin: Spark, it is the boss of the Cavern of Cobwebs. It is a relative of the Arachnode and has a noticeable thick metallic shell on its body that protects it from direct physical attacks. It dwells deep in the northernmost point of the cave in its personal den holding onto the Data Box which is required to progress to the next area. As said previously its metallic hide is immune to most physical attacks. Likewise, the Ironclad Tarantuar mainly uses physical attacks itself when battling Pikmin. Using its venom-coated fangs it can either rapidly bite across the arena to swallow Pikmin, or cause the fangs to foam with toxic acid and spray that as an attack. It also can roll up into a giant metal ball in an attempt to crush Pikmin with its body. However, its most potent attack is the ability to scatter Bomb-Rocks with its thorax via a small hole on top of it. These Bomb-Rocks will explode shortly after placement making this its most dangerous attack. It will even walk on the ceiling to scatter Bomb-Rocks in a straight line before dropping down detonating the rocks with its vibrations. However, if you have a squad of Goo Pikmin then you can disarm the Bomb-Rocks and use them yourself. If you feed the Tarantuar these rocks it will explode and flip over revealing a glowing blue pulsating area to attack with Pikmin before it closes this area shaking off everyone including Goo Pikmin. Furthermore, the venom does nothing to White Pikmin so having a squad of those two types would work out the best against this fight.

It drops the Data Box when defeated worth × 575 and gives you the ability to gain the upgrade to head to the Chilling Frontier.

Ultra-Spicy Differences

When doing its rolling attack it will cause rocks to fall when it hits a wall, it also does a new attack where it ricochets across the arena as a ball after being fed a Bomb-Rock before crashing into a wall and revealing its weak spot.

Notes

Abel's medical journal

“ Unsuitable for medical use, if it's not dealing with the unbendable steel shell then it's dealing with caustic venom.”

Lyn's sale review

“ Venom makes a great pesticide and its shell would make a great container to hold said pesticide to prevent it from spilling and melting your hydrangeas.”

PIX's creature scan

“Has a near-undentable shell. Fangs are hollow and contain holes for injecting venom. Joints allow it to flex and curl into a ball. Highly territorial and ravenous.

Habitat: caves
Niche: carnivore
Maturity age: 5 years
Average lifespan: 21 years
Breeding season: year-round”

Trivia

The Data Box resembles the Samsung Galaxy Smartphone.
~ Cheepy-Cheepy inspired the name of this creature.
