Anode Beetles are small black beetles with four yellow spots on their wing casings. Their name is due to them periodically producing electrical currents if another one is nearby. This creature is blissfully unaware of Pikmin, and if found alone, they are harmless; but if there is a partner nearby, they can produce an electrical barrier between them, making any nearby Pikmin subject to electrocution. As such, they are commonly found in groups of two or more. As swarming one while it is upright is ineffective, a Pikmin must be thrown on top of it to flip it over before it may be harmed. Purple Pikmin shockwaves can cause them to flip over even if not directly hit.

In Pikmin Forever, Anode Beetles have improved graphics, now reflecting light colors, and new behaviors. They will usually gather in groups of three to five near sources of electricity, be it gates, wires, bulbs, or other electrical enemies. This enemy can be defeated much like it can in Pikmin 2, as throwing a Pikmin on top of it will cause it to flip over. Throwing a Rock Pikmin onto it will cause its exoskeleton to shatter, exposing its backside which is much like the Armored Cannon Beetle's except yellow in color. An Anode Beetle in this state gives off a small yellow glow in dark areas, and is no longer vulnerable to non-Yellow Pikmin, as it gives off electricity constantly. They can generate electricity on their own in this state, but if it still has its wing casing, it needs a partner to generate a barrier.

In Pikmin: Dimensional Breach, Anode Beetles reappear, functionally identical to how they are in Pikmin Forever. Louie can recruit them with his special upgrade, and they can conduct electricity just like Yellow Pikmin. Their arcing electricity can also be used to attack enemies, but it will also shock any Pikmin who happen to also be following Louie.
Notes
Sagittarius' notes
- “This creature should be ideally kept as far away from electronics as possible, as its electrical charges are too much for the circuits of civilian-issue computers. However, a colony of them does make for a decent electrical fence, and provided they are fed well they will keep your property protected for years.”
Libra's notes
- “The creature’s shell will be all the rage for its iconic black-and-yellow coloration. Sadly, the fact that it is hard as rock makes it really only useful for sun visors or protective helmets.”
Charlie's notes
- “This creature is best tackled with Yellow Pikmin, as any other color is likely to get zapped thoroughly into oblivion. Either flip it on its back by throwing Pikmin on top of it or shatter its exoskeleton with a Rock Pikmin and swarm with Yellow Pikmin.”
Derrick's notes
- “The tube-like heart of the beast pumps all the way down its back, surging with the electricity characteristic of the species’ lifestyle. This snakelike organ should be pulled out and handled with care; although the voltage isn’t directly lethal, it can mess with the circuits of standard-issue life support systems. Once the heart is removed, a spool of metallic wires should be wrapped around it, and then the inferior vena cava and aorta, at opposite ends of the tube, should be plugged with the strangely large screws common on this planet. When the procedure is complete, you should have a battery capable of providing enough electricity to last you for a month.”

The Anode Beetle, in Pikmin: Ultimate Doom, behaves mostly the same as it does in Pikmin 2 but may randomly electrify itself while flipped.
